Something I post at the top of every new year, and I appreciate the words more with every additional trip around the sun.

Love is
is not rude,
it is not self seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices in truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.


-1 Corinthians 13:5&6

New Ninja Turtles isn't too bad, the art is akin to the MIB / heavy lines, simple colors, but detailed look. The origin episode tonight was cute.

Played FFXI with Sammy and D for a while tonight, stayed up later than my norm, because I can sleep in tomorrow. I still think that monthly fees for this sort of game are annoying, especially if it's more than $5 a month. It seems to be a bit gouge-y. However, I did get my link-money today, which is $20 found, so I can put half of that into the game for a little while, anyhow. I'm liking the non-combat stuff... I want to learn fishing and woodworking, so I can sell my wares in the auction, and be virtually self-sufficient.(But not have it be so much work that it's another "job".

Found a lot of Kurosawa films for download via DC++. Six, if you count A Fistful of Dollars.Site Meter

Newt's aging pretty well, I think. He's still a total babyhead at 4.
First Call of the New season, a 12 year old black male in Tallahassee. The kid already has a gang tattoo as an identifying mark. (JLP) He went missing at 7:30 last night, and has run away before, but isn't considered habitual (yet?) So, some folks are getting an early morning wakeup after New Year's eve festivities. I really hope that the kid turns out all right, and that he's just out fooling around, and not up to anything really detrimental to himself or others. I've been up for about an hour or so, and will probably crawl back into bed for an hour or so soon.

[update- 10am] - Child returned home at 4:30 am, mom didn't bother notifying the police to call off the search. Thanks, Ma!

I'm glad you posted that bit of wisdom this morning. I woke up to an anonymous post in my journal that was definitely not given in Love. I wisely deleted it...and I wasn't crushed by it - but it has stayed in my mind. I'll probably have to write about it at some point, but right now, reading Corinthian warms me. So..thank you.

hee... it'd be a neat trick, as he started out a boy, and ended up a Neut-Newt.

Happy New Year to you and Newtie-san! :0)

What's DC++?

Just ran across the Scotto ring moments ago:

Happy New Year to you and yours, too!

DC++ is a peer-to-peer file sharing program like kazaa or napster, only it's open source, written in C++. No spyware, and it's prettydang powerful. Lots of folks sharing lots of stuff.. not just pornos and pop music.

Are you calling me two-faced? ;) Nifty ring, actually!

Haha, nooooo ;) Yeah, it is. I was kind of surprised that the price wasn't crazy. You should get it!

hee... it'd be weird wering a two-headed beardo on a beardo guy wouldn't it?

Love the kittie pics! My girls were adult kitties when I adopted them, so I missed the pink toe stage.

I need to get on it and post pictures of my babies. :)

Nah...as soon as I saw it, I had it in my head that it would be very fitting on you. :0)

Kinda like your icons and other little tidbits that you use here on LJ that suit you so well. :0)

Thank you for that quote. It was particularly appropriate. I just want to say how much I've enjoyed reading your LJ this year. It helps me keep my mind open; keep it up!

Happy New(t) Year to you, too! =) I loved the pictures, and I think I woke everyone in the house up with my Awwwwwing and squealing over the baby kitten pictures. Little pink toes! I melt!

Newt looks so healthy!

He's a happy, healthy boy! (frisky, too!)

Yay...are you really gonna get it?!

The guy who made it could probably tell you how to figure your size.

He makes a lot of cool stuff... did you see his other auctions?

I may get it as an "early Birthday-present from Newt".

What finger? pinkie?

Date: 2004-01-03 10:17 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] juliabee.livejournal.com
Yeah, I checked his other stuff out, too. Neat.

Ha..Newt would be so proud of what he got you!

It's large enough that the photo shows that it looks cool on the pinkie. I'd say either pinkie, or on your right hand - ring finger.

Gotta save up the left hand - ring finger in case your girlie wants to put something there one day. ;)

Dern tootin! Yeah, I'd put any non-wed ring on the right hand, because I'm a leftie!
