и вот это настроение. на веееееесь год

Дорогой Дед Мороз!

* хочу лето, +30, прозрачное море, красивые горы и шоколадный загар
* хочу сигет, ночи без сна, бесконечные перебежки между сценами и в люминариум хотя бы на полчаса
* хочу сотни концертов, ещё больше фестивалей и много-много новых людей
* хочу немножечко чаще видеть своих иногородних друзей. хочу ездить к ним в гости и чтобы они тоже обязательно приезжали ко мне
* хочу красивых фотографий и новые образы привычной себя
* хочу какую-нибудь интересную программу на телевидении и работу, которой хотелось бы жить
* хочу красивую маленькую машинку и путешествия в новые города
* хочу, чтобы люди вокруг улыбались
* хочу, чтобы меня любили каждый день, каждую минуту, и точно также любить в ответ


p.s. ах, да! ещё хочу чтобы коля выиграл фабрику звёзд.


на этом, пожалуй, у меня всё.

Turning to photography as a creative outlet during a valiant fight with breast cancer at age 34, renaissance10 survived and set up a photo contest to help raise funds for the Lavender Trust, a nonprofit that provides information and support to younger women with breast cancer. In the first two years, the competition brought in over £65,000 (that's $107,260.73 U.S.!), with entries from 130 countries last year. Renaissance10 recently joined LiveJournal to meet other passionate photographers and find supportive friends.

Несмотря на то, что этот год был мегасложным и непростым для меня, были в нём, как всегда и хорошие, по-настоящему счастливые дни. решила последовать пулиному примеру и собрать основные из них под катом. просто так, для себя.

( много-много фотографий обо всём подряд )

главное дотерпеть до лета. всё впереди.

день сегодня просто такой, когда всё и сразу...
это линда. она жила со мной больше 12 лет.

Holiday debuggery

We know there were a few kinks with the holiday promotion. We've been working very hard to get them ironed out. If you have a paid/permanent account, keep on sending those coupons. Here's an update:

• If you were unable to send out multiple coupons at a time, please perform a hard refresh, and you should be good to go.
• If you redeemed a coupon to upgrade your account and the balance at checkout was $0 instead of $9.95 or $15, this means your upgrade did not go through (nor were you charged). We've straightened this out, so you can now apply your holiday coupon toward the purchase of an annual paid account.
• If you tried to redeem a holiday coupon and had trouble using a gift certificate to cover the balance of an annual paid account, we identified the root problem. If this happened to you, you can now use your holiday coupon together with your gift certificate.
• If the number of holiday coupons you have available suddenly goes up (instead of down), this might be due to recipients declining the coupons, at which point your pool of available coupons will be replenished and, therefore, increase.
• If you need assistance with holiday coupons or pretty much anything else (well, LiveJournal related), please open a support request and we'll be more than happy to help!

Tweaks

• There were some initial glitches displaying results on My Guests, but we've worked them out. We hope you'll check out who's been checking you out!
• Some of you reported formatting issues using the Rich Text Editor (i.e., line breaks were being removed incorrectly). We've implemented a fix! Thanks so much for your patience.

Give a little extra!

We're pleased to report that we've already sold over 100 virtual red ribbons in honor of National AIDS Awareness month. Remember, for each charitable vgift you purchase for $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of gross proceeds to IAVI.org (the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative) to fund the development of an HIV vaccine. Once again, we thank you for your generosity.

Celebrate with holiday vGifts!

Stop by the Virtual Gift Shop and share some holiday magic with your LiveJournal friends.

Совсем недавно открыла для себя радость общения по скайпу.
Парадокс в том, что по нему ржачнее общаться не столько с людьми с других городов и континентов (изначальное главное предназначение программы),
а с ближайшими соседями и дружбанами, которых и так видишь целыми днями!
