I live!
And I’m now under my “real” name. It feels weird to make the change from posting as “Lori” versus posting as “Rhyssa” since I’ve been using my online alias for so many years. Plus the whole starting on the internet (in gaming, no less) back when keeping your anonymity was the way to go. Along […]

So here I am, down at the in-laws place in NC. The trip down was fine, the flight went well (despite the high number of kids on the plane) and we arrived at their place as it started raining hard. No biggie, my husband’s aunt was there while the MiL had run out to the […]

Nothing special has been going on. I’m still going to Zumba classes on Sunday mornings and it still hurts like a mofo when I’m done. I hate being the fattest chick there but I keep sticking to it. Plus I can see changes in me that I like, so pain is worth it. Art-wise, the […]

Why do some idiots insist on poking the bear, aka aggravating the admin of the forum they post on? I get that occasional members on the OneManga forums think they should be allowed to post whatever they like without regard to the rules. You get all kinds and the crying/whining/bitching that results when the rules […]

That about sums it all up. I had what I feel was a good interview yesterday for a PM position, but I’ve felt that way about all the interviews I’ve had so far. I’m planning to be more aggressive with my follow-ups and my determination, because this would be a good fit for my current […]

Description: A logo for an online forum game. The competition pit members of the Anime Community Board versus the Anime General Board over on the IGN forums. Players were divided into two teams and each team needed to come up with a logo to represent themselves. This logo was for the Anime General Board (AGB) […]
