Tomorrow's Project: Redoing the CDbaby site!

I am not at all happy with the way it looks or behaves, so I'm going to do something about it. In fact, I'm going to devote part of every Wednesday to revamping one of my locations or sites - this week CDbaby, in coming weeks Blisstrance, here, EMCpodcast, Libsyn... I can do better than I'm doing.

What would you like to see on those sites?

Happy Samhain! Plus NaBloPoMo

NaBloPoMo is a thing rather like NaNoWriMo, and I'm doing it this month. Unlike NaNoWriMo, which is one month of the year and has no content restrictions, NaBloPoMo does not admit adult sites or commercial sites.

Tough. I'm doing it anyway. :) I'm just not going to link up to the main site. I could use the traffic, but screw 'em. :) I have a feeling that people will either read or not. I am not sure if I'm going to attempt NaNoWriMo or just knit like a banshee to finish my holiday gifts for my family, though!

On to more important things!

This weekend, I have the immense joy of traveling with Jukebox to the east coast to attend the wedding of Wiseguy and DaniFantom. Theirs is a genuine, dynamic erotic hypnosis love story. I will be unavailable for calls Friday until Monday afternoon as a result.

Wiseguy has been a true friend for a decade. (Gods, has it been THAT LONG??) His stories are incredible - his "Busman's Holiday" is often cited as a primer for budding erotic hypnotists. I am so very honored and delighted to be invited to celebrate with him and with Dani. Yes, I will be posting from the road... even if the post is as short as "I always cry at weddings" or some such. ;)

I'm taking calls today and tonight, by the way... look for me!

Because this needed to be preserved...

I just tweeted:

Happiness is hearing the soft noises your pet in the next room makes asleep. <3 @copperheron recently, @jukeboxemcsa tonight, others too! <3

I mean every word of it, too.

Birthday coming up!

So, yes, my birthday is coming up on September 4. It's not hard to find out what number birthday that is if you go looking. I know people are going to ask what I want. There is, of course, my Amazon wishlist over to the side... If it's on there, I want it.

I am also in the market for a Nook ebook reader from B&N. If people wanted to go in on that, coordinate with Jukebox. :) I want to be surprised. I like the Nook better than the Kindle for a lot of reasons, including but not limited to size, hand feel and the fact that B&N isn't going to pull books I've purchased from it the way Amazon has proven they will. With all the traveling I'll be doing, the Nook fits in better than the Kindle.

Anything purple and dresslike from Holy Clothing is a happy. Their skirts are too long for me, and their tops are almost long enough to be dresses, but I love their sundresses and longer-sleeved stuff. Again, coordinate with Jukebox. :)

And look for a birthday sale soon... ;)

Happy Things

With the issues concerning my voice this week, it's been too easy to slip into a negative headspace. Today I'm just going to talk about hypnosis-related things that Make Me Happy. These are in no particular order; every time I try to order them I just get this huge grin and it doesn't work.

• SirAaronhalt completed his Quest and officially became one of my Chosen. I'd love to go into more details about this, but since telling some of the terms of his Quest might violate his offline privacy, please just assume that he exceeded my expectations by a good three months or so.
  
• I got to spend three whole weeks with Copper and see him dressed up in a tux and dance with him and and and. We don't get in the same space nearly often enough. I am grateful that the next time is the Rush concert in August.
  
• Speaking of which: Rush concert in August! Two weeks before my birthday! WIN! (OK, not strictly hypnosis-related. But still happy.)
  
• I am now living with Jukebox. I think the reasons for this happy should be obvious.
  
• I also am developing things with my sleepyhead and my sleeping beauty. Two wonderful people, two people I am blessed to have in my life.
  
• The uploader is working on CDbaby. Watch this space for news on when the next files are on sale! JOY!
  
• NEEHU is soon. CONvergence is not-quite-as-soon.
  
• Widdershinscat got married. Wiseguy and Dani Fantom are getting married.
  
• I am going to a bellydancing class next week. Bellydance is hypnotic.
  
• I had about six more things to go here, but this is a good place to stop for now. A real blog entry later.
