Update

1. I woke up really early this morning (jet lag) and spent some time updating my web site. I now have 43 HP fics listed there! I had no idea I'd written that much fic.

2. My not-so-trusty laptop has been making me crazy for months, and I've decided to break down and buy a new one. Despite the cost, I'm really looking forward to getting it. This one is many years old, anyway, and I've been having a lot of trouble running Dreamweaver on it, as well as multimedia software. *pets it* Time to put this one out to pasture, I think.

3. On an unrelated WTF-ish note, I've seen video clips on both CNN and NBC this morning (though I can't seem to find a link) of a model wearing the latest fashion trend: a jewel-encrusted live cockroach on a leash. Apparently you let it crawl around on you while you look aloof and hold its little silver leash. Because really, nothing says beautiful like cockroaches crawling all over you, hmm?

ETA: Thanks to twilight_nyx for the link to the cockroach video and to tavi_b for this link to the story. It may have been featured on America's Top Model, but this is actually for real! *shudders*

Yup, Mr. Salvatore Dahli started the trend in the 50's. Sad, isn't it?
