"Therapy is like Vegas. The decent odds are with the house."

I watched 'Pom Poko' last night. It was cute. A little preachy, but cute. I wanted to say, "They're tanuki, not raccoons!" however at times. Like most of Miyazaki's films, it had a message and this one was more blatant than most, but it did have a valid point, so I wasn't too bothered by it.

I got a bit of an ego boost today. I posted some of my 'Star Wars' icons I had done over on [livejournal.com profile] starwars_eu yesterday and I've gotten quite a few compliments on them. It made me feel good.

MAAG are having manicures and then are off to JC Penney over in Merritt Island so grandma can use her gift card she got for Christmas. Mom said she felt bad for leaving me alone to spend time with her sisters, but I said it was perfectly alright. I mean, she doesn't get to see her one from up north very much and it's important for them to spend time together. Besides, I'm used to being by myself. Believe me, I'll find plenty of things today to keep me occupied.

I want to try and burn the Shikito fanmix I downloaded from [livejournal.com profile] flamika yesterday. I may try to make a cover for it on PS, but I don't know what size to make it since I've never made one from scratch before.

I'm also doing laundry, so that'll give me something to do as well. So I'm not hurting for actitvities.

Anyway, I hope everyone has a good weekend!

Trivia of the day: Diamond Head Crater is Hawaii’s most famous landmark. The United States Army built a trail up the crater in 1908, and added bunkers during World War II. The trail passes through an old gun emplacement.

The covers for the Akito/Kureno fanmix are just the right size. For some reason one of the covers for the Juunishi fanmix ended up smaller than I wanted it to be.

What size did you make them? The Akireno ones I mean, so I know what size to make for the Shikito one.

I'm on the run right now, but if you go to the entry with the mix, right-click the Kureno image, go to Properties, it should tell you the size of it.

I kinda took the image that I had saved and opened it up in PS and I got the dimensions from there...

But thanks anyway! I got it finished so at least that's out of the way.It doesn't look too bad, actually.

Congrats.....

on the icons. I was a big star wars fan in the early 80s. Then, I found Springsteen in '85:)

Hey, you can be a Star Wars and a Springsteen fan, right?
