    Maybe I am an idiot.

    Am I? How can you tell if you are, in fact, stupid?

    Now I'm questioning everything. I wasn't what you would call confident before but now my mind is just racing with doubt and self directed anger. And over some stupid bullshit, too.

    What the hell is wrong with me.
    Stumped it with Doku from Ninja Gaiden and also Crystal Gayle

    Near as I can tell, it eliminates sets of people based on your answers and then zeroes in on one. Matthew Shepard wasn't even in the database, apparently.

    Guessed Isaac Hayes when I was going for Barry White, it got it on the second go around though.
    Also it guessed Odin pretty easily, go figure.

    This is the 3D program that I use (in the hands of a Master). The artist is Ikeda, a "Shade" master in Japan. It's the most difficult program that I ever learned because all the modeling is done with bezier curves instead of box modeling. It's the most widely used 3D program in Japan but only a few artists use it here.

    Alright, that's it!

    I'm using a freakin' alarm clock from now on. To wake up. During break.

    I thought going to bed at 3am would mean waking up earlier, right? Like, around noon, if not earlier? Going to bed at that hour usually means waking up around then to me.

    NOPE. I woke up at 4pm. FOUR. PEE. EM. I was in bed for THIRTEEN HOURS. This is the stupidest stupid thing that was ever stupid. :x

    On the upside, I'll be attempting CRANBERRY-ORANGE SCONES tonight!.....they might be a little wheaty, though...because my aunt used the last of the regular flour this evening...and I bought a bag of whole-wheat flour, expecting that I'd be able to make 33/66 mix or something (the whole wheat flour being the dominant one).

    I mean, I guess I could just go to the store....AGAIN!!! huagrhlsdfjas. Screw it, I'll just make 100% whole-wheat scones. If they're too intense, I'll just make another batch within the next month, and add some regular flour in with that version.

    [edit] oh! and on the upper-upside...I got my bracelet from an Etsy dude in the mail, finally! I am excited! :D

    Dwarf is the preferred nomenclature; While Midget is considered the pejorative.

    That 20 questions thing:

    it got Dave Mustaine so quickly I was impressed...

    Then it failed to get Sir Ranulph Fiennes and seemed to get stuck on a weird loop where it kept asking me similar questions:

    "Are you British?" yes
    "Are you European?" uh... yes
    "Do you have British heritage?" YES, please move on...

    oh! and on the upper-upside...I got my bracelet from an Etsy dude in the mail, finally! I am excited! :D

    ...and it's too big! By like a full inch! D: I can't even restring it, it's made of leather! D:

    shwut do i do? I mean...I guess I could still wear it, but...it's quite a bit bigger than what I'd like. I have tiny wrists! And I sent him the measurement! I mean, it's really well-made, so...I dunno! D:

    I could give this one to my friend, who was looking for this exact same type of bracelet...and she's got wider wrists than I do...and I could ask him to make another one that's an inch smaller than this one.........!?!?!??1 ack! :C

    I'll ask my friend for her wrist-measurement...and if it works for her, I can give it to her as a Christmas gift, heh

    It essentially looks like this, and this. The clasps can't be taken out and repositioned...and I'm pretty sure I can't cut the end off and add a clasp - it just wouldn't hold up.

    Maybe I'll email him and ask if I can send it back, with the right width marked directly on the bracelet? I don't want to have to buy an entirely new bracelet...but I this one is way too big for me. I'll ask him if I can pay him to just re-do the end only, and I can pay for shipping again...:? blargh.

    Not necessarily the follicle generation, but the uses this might have in medicine and dermatological treatments are pretty goddamn exciting.
