Morning Update

[hummingwolf]

Since the depression began to lift last week, my predominant emotion has been anger. Good. Much as I'd love to be happy, anger is a nice, energetic emotion much to be preferred over sitting around like a lump all day. If I can sleep enough and get myself sufficiently caffeinated to think clearly, I can work with this.

Reading about the war probably has a lot to do with the anger. Haven't been watching much of the TV coverage, just following links in theworld and other places to try to ensure that if I'm reading propaganda (and I am), at least it's propaganda from a variety of sources. Trying to keep track of other news stories as well, like the one about the artificial synapse.

This weekend's one accomplishment: I made a little animation in POV-Ray which penguinboi is now using as one of his many icons.
Isn't it cute? From certain angles you can tell that the penguin model is pretty crude, but the bouncy guy still has some charm. Anybody else want an icon featuring a chinstrap penguin? (I'd offer to make one for mysticpenguin, but she uses photos of real pengies... anybody else?) Now if only my computer would play nice with mice so I could make a hummingwolf model.

Had more to say but the brain is demanding more caffeine before I'm to be allowed to say it.

Unfortunately, at the moment I need more sleep before I can do anything with the anger. Even if Camellia sinensis produces the beverage of the gods, tea alone isn't helping quite enough. Bah. Where's some good ambrosia when you need it?

yea, chemical computing is SO the wave of the future!!! i read a few years ago about research with chemical computers... mind-blowing the power they have just by increasing degrees of freedom over hardwired electrical circuits...

and, as a geek with a chemical engineering degree, i must gloat over all the electrical engineering graduates: "seee?! we TOLD you chemistry is superior to simple electricity!! nyah-nyah!!! :P "

*grin*

as for the subsided depression: YAYYYY!!!

and the anger: good!! anger is a great motivator!!! hard to lay down and die when you're pissed off. :)

adorable pengy icon!!! *hee*

And on a completely different topic: Just noticed there's a brand-new community called market4healers. Maybe the folks there could give you some ideas on promoting your business!

Thought you'd appreciate the track Launchcast chose to play for me as I posted. :-)

That very song is on my interests list.

I'm so flattered you'd think of me! I tend not to comment on posts just because of the icons, but I had an immediate "Squeee!" response when I saw the icon you made for Pengy on one of his.

I'm glad you're feeling better (feeling differently?) as well. Anger isn't quite as bad as people want to make it out to be. It gets things going. And it lets me be cynical and say that at least something goodish has come from Shrub's stupid attempt to be President of the World.

My little animation made you "Squeee"? Cool! Glad you like it too.

[meretia]
