Not too surprisingly, this is the same cousin who asked her mother a few days ago if they had a compass and a thermometer, because she and her friends wanted to go to the cemetery and "search for physical and photographic evidence of ghosts."
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I had zero trick-or-treaters last night, so after one night's indulgence I brought my bag of candy to work to inflict it on other people's waistlines.

ION, I feel that The Toast's regular Femslash Friday feature may be of interest to some people here. Today's is about Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins. [link]

It's weird that I'm getting breaking news from Tori Belleci and Grant Imahara. TSA agent reported shot at LAX: [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wait, Buffy and Willow do not belong in that list...what the what? Xena and Gabrielle kinda don't anyway, because they ended up being the series endgame. But Buffy and Willow did not have lady love vibes! You so weird, slashers!

Hahahahaha!
Hooray -- my boss is going home sick and has therefore cancelled our update meeting, at which I had nothing to update. So that's a relief. I wish she had taken an actual sick day at some point, since she has been a mess all week. Ah well.

Because books.
I'm writing copy for a Christmas romance anthology, and I used "It's that time of year when the world falls in love" as an intro. Now I have that song stuck in my head.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Everything crossed for you, Sue.
I so suck at lighting photographs. I'm working on composing shots and being aware of lighting. I do turn off the flash because I hate that washy foreground fill. But I wind up messing with it in post.
I don't even have official Photoshop--my pro video editor BiL gave us the program and I had to give it back. It was too complicated and intimidating. But I have a couple of much simpler photomanipulation programs, and I love them. Cropping to level, or cropping out distractions, or cropping down to focus on an object in a shot--or several distinct objects in the same shot, playing with lighting and contrast and saturation.... It's like fingerpainting in kindergarten. I've managed some fairly decent results from extremely indifferent photos.
I just keep trying to better my actual picture-taking, because I can't get over feeling like the P-shop is a cheat.
