I don't write in paper journals at the moment, but that doesn't stop me from collecting paper journals. Until recently I'd limited my collecting to a quarterly Field Notes subscription. But I've also been lusting over Paperblanks journals (as I wrote about here) and when they recently had a "these editions are going away soon" sale, I succumbed.

OMG they are even more beautiful than the product photos and descriptions make them look. The covers have wonderful texture. The hardcover journal covers have shiny highlights, an elastic band, and a back pocket. The Quadro has a magnetic closure. I took some photos...my photography skills are rusty. All of the editions are still available and on sale.

I have been looking at this web page for the past several days and I have to stop myself from licking the screen.

The OH and I recently finished re-watching Babylon 5 and finished watching the fourth season of Heroes. He informed me that our Netflix queue was getting a little thin on series and said I could suggest up to five series to put on the queue.

So what should we watch?

I just tried signing up again for Second Life. The first time, quite a while back, I gave up early in the process because I couldn't find a "last name" that I liked among the offered choices. Today I got farther into the form, but I ended up not signing up, because the form required me to specify a gender.

Why the fuck does SL care about my gender identity???

I am now on FaceBook, using my social name. You know what to do (if you want).

Now that the angst of VDay and valentinr is over, I can let folks know about my wishroll account at http://wishroll.com/wishlist/firecat. I heartily hope that someone will give me my wished-for item.
