Dear Andy,

GODDAMMIT. Do you know how many times I've seen you play Roger this year? None. I even set it to record and everything.

Not amused Andy. Not at all. Ass.

(And- get better in time for Kooyong. Nearly all my favourite pictures of you and Roger are from there. I don't care if you have to wrap yourself in bubblewrap between now and then, be there.)*

A little bit of love because I'm sure your ankle hurts like a bitch right now,

Clo

*I miss the days when tennis players did as they were told.

...wait, when was that again?

WTF just happened to The Shoebox Project? Okay so it hadn't been updated in like a million and one years but seriously, deleting everything? Uncool. It all seems a little bizarre to me, what with the alternate link not working and everything. Seriously, looks like hackage if anything. Why would anyone be so cruel as to hack something so awesome? Wtf?

I've had a strip of the handdrawn pictures from that thing (Sirius/Remus done in the style of a strip of four photo booth pictures) printed out and stuck to the side of my bookcase for years. The side of my bookcase that is now covered in at least three layers of pretty pictures, postcards, labels, leaflets, cartoons and tickets but was, when I stuck that Shoebox strip up, pretty near a blank side of wood.

I will be sad if Shoebox has gone forever. It's way too awesome to be gone from the Interwebs permanantly, but I guess I'll just wait and see. If it's hackage and everything's been deleted... that's a lot of reposting. A lot.

On another note entirely, today I bought my first Starbucks from our very own brand new Starbucks in my own town. It was a vanilla latte and it tasted all the better for all the years I waited for us to get a Starbucks.

All those years and our house goes on the market tomorrow. There's some terrible irony in there somewhere but damned if I can see it.


eta: Just case you hadn't realised (like uh, I didn't) DON'T. CLICK. THE. "NEW" SHOEBOX. LINKS. No one's reported any problems so far but copperbadge has pinpointed them as the same/similar person who hacked his LJ and there were keyloggers hidden in those links. He has a helpful post with even helpfuller comments here with What To Do If You Clicked (so much for the nap I was planning to take... I kind of like this keyscrambler thing though. It's fun to imagine how much it'd piss the hackers off as I watch nonsense scrolling across the top of my screen as I type).

Hopefully I haven't destroyed poor Harry the Second already. He's so young and innocent. Also, I don't think I could take it if I had to give him back and get Harry the Third because, seriously. There is only so much laptop trauma I can take.

eta: Because good things can come from disaster, all of The Shoebox Project in .pdf. pretty.

eta: All my scans (yes I ran three different ones, shutup) came up clean and I am going to bed.

I could totally do with it being the weekend tomorrow. Ngh.
