A plea to local folks! I thought this article was well written, and it also points out that a documentary of Ó Cadhain’s life is on RTE tonight: Rí na bhFocal tonight at 10.15pm. It will most likely have English subtitles. Also If anyone can record TV I’d be very happy if you could record it for me, since Deirdre won’t be able to watch it :( http://www.gaelport.com/index.php?page=clippings&id=1325&viewby=date Has anybody got the capability to tape this? We haven’t (we don’t even own a VCR anymore), so I thought I’d throw…
better.
Better day so far today, not that I’ve gotten as far as, oh, say, WRITING anything yet. I went down into Cobh with Ted and did a foggy-morning photo shoot before the post office opened. I think I’ve got some nice stuff, and I’m thinking maybe I’ll post a gallery of them instead of putting them up on kitsnaps in slow motion, because I feel like showing off. Heh. Anyway, once the PO opened I paid bills and walked home, which wasn’t a bad way to spend the morning. I’ve…
:p
This has been a suckful day. There was nothing *bad* about it, exactly. I just feel like I spent too much money and too much time to too little end. I got a raincoat which, at €100 because it was half off, sure as shit better be adequate, but it’s not what I wanted. The trivial fact that I doubt they make what I want in a raincoat is beside the point. I spent a long time standing there trying to decide if there was any chance at *all* of…
i throw myself on your mercy.
There is no reason for people to do this except I am pleading with them to. Could people please put youtube video embeds behind tags? My firefox/computer/whatever cannot handle them and going to my flist only to have my browser crash without warning is an exercise in frustration at best, and on a day like I’ve been having today makes me want to go crawl under the bed and cry. ETA: provided me with this page, which allows you to turn off video embeds in LJ. That worked. I still…
chance chance chance chance chance!
I’ve gotten the rough draft letters for about the first half of Chance. It is SO COOL to see the actual words with the images. I mean, I know what they all say and what’s going on in them, but there’s something radically different about actually having the words on the page. Wow. I keep looking at this and thinking ‘there is NO WAY Image can turn this down.’ Which is not true. But *man*! *Man*! Don’t think we’re going to make the Oct. 1 submission deadline I’d set, but…
