glerg, with a side of good stuff ~

[lookingland]

this morning i woke up thinking about how i had (oops) missed posting the Monday Millennium recap. then i realized it was thursday and boy did i ever miss it! i guess i got bogged down in other truck and deals and annoying life junk of no interest to any of you. suffice it to say, all is well in the world and despite the inhospitably cold temps recently and about of week of missing time, the month of march is rolling through with thus far record productivity.

i launched the Reconstruction site over at EpiGuide last sunday and got some excellent feedback on some of my lack of intuitive web-building. i made some changes to help the site be more user-friendly and i think it's looking pretty great. now i just need to get on the stick about creating content. i've fallen behind and am nowhere near where i wanted to be in terms of catching up to where it was the story left off three (or four?) years ago. beh.

anyway, this is completely random, but here's two recent cool articles on interesting bits of ephemera related to the man in the funny hat:

Collector: Lincoln photo uncovered in Grant album; and ~

In Lincoln's watch, mystery revealed

fun stuff ~ !

Does this mean I can finally blurb you? *so excited!*

I spend a little time the other night cruising around Reconstruction (so much there! It's like Myst, all these pieces that connect in such subtle ways!) and didn't have trouble finding my way around, just so you know! :)

thanks cat!

i originally wanted it to just "be" what it was and peeps could explore and figure it out (or not), but i also don't want to create an intentionally hostile environment and a lot of feedback seemed to indicate that my non-welcoming choice might be perceived as snooty, so i tried to make compromises that i can live with ~ and i did and i can and it's all good. hahahahahaha ~

there's still some dead ends and things that need cleaning and rearranging, but yeah, the site's pretty much good to go. like i said, i need to really work on the content now. lots and lots and lots of writing ahead.
