I've been working a lot this week, and will be just as much next week. Between my two jobs I'm clocking in 30-34 hours a week or so...it's good to be making a good amount of money, but my hobbies have rather suffered. I still haven't found time to practice guitar which is really getting me down and I have a lot of HP fan fic reviews which I really need to get on top of. Obviously I've had no time to work on any new fan fic myself, though I do really want to write a sequel to TDoON still, or at LEAST a spin-off one-shot or two.

Well, I'm kind of out of it so maybe I'll edit this later to put more interesting info in. In case anyone is marginally interested, I made a few sweet BUCK-TICK icons which I posted on two fan communities I belong to. If you're interested, you can check them out here: buck_tick. I'm quite proud of them, especially my U-ta/Toll Tag Team one! (in case you don't know anything about B-T, which is fairly likely, U-ta is the bassist and Toll is drummer. Toll is also U-ta big brother so icons with the two of them are just so cute!) There's also a couple smexy Atsushi ones that I know ftsor will be interested in (once we resurrect her from LJ death that is...) [Come ON, Elise! There's even one from the Climax Together concert with his pretty pretty long hair!!]

 And here's a poll because this one is just too awesome not to do:

I made these for my little sister to make up for the fact that I will in all likelihood NEVER get around to writing her drabble about Arlin in "Aterlier Iris: Eternal Mana." Yeah, sorry, Nanners, but I'm just too absorbed in the Harry Potter world right now. Maybe I can write you a Nan Cobble drabble! Then I could post it with my fan fic as a spin-off. But I'm making no promises since I seem to be so insanely busy now that I'm working (AND starting guitar lessons finally tomorrow, which means that I SHOULD be doing at least an hour of practicing a day. Yeah. We'll see if THAT happens.) Anyway, onto the icons!

I've been online pretty much all day today, and I have no idea exactly what I did...well, I did make a couple of photoshopped icons for Nanners since I am NEVER going to get her drabble done. I just finished this sweet new Jyrki one that I made from a screen grab I took from The 69 Eyes' "Lost Boys" video. There are just so many shots of Jyrki in that one! I love when Jussi spits out the Chinese food and Jyrki just smirks at him. So lovely! Well, I'm waiting for the other RPGers to update (HINT HINT HINT NOT SO SUBTLE HINT HERE) so we can continue with that. I feel very tired and blah...I took a nap earlier but didn't sleep well because I was waiting for the movers to call any second. I eventually called THEM and was told that I had only "requested" for my delivery to be today, not "scheduled" it. &%^$(@*# PEOPLE! So they're coming tomorrow night, so we should at least be home then. I hate having work almost every day now...even when I was in school it was only usually 3-4 days a week. *sigh* Being grown up really sucks. I hate it. I just want to sleep all day and watch Harry Potter movies (that is, the ones that I would make...not the ones that OTHERS make and cut a ridiculous amount of awesome material out of.) Yeah, I'm not in a posting mood so I guess I"ll just end here. Don't want to bore people to death. Hopefully someone will update their LJs or leave me a fan fic review soon...I'm so bloody bored!

Ok, I got Photoshop yesterday and I can now FULLY appreciate how someone can spend all night on a project and skip many many classes. I've so far only made three icons on it, but I think they turned out pretty good! Check them out!
