Just a quick update while I have a few minutes left to be online! I've been trying to keep my LVI stuff going in the bits of borrowed online time since my computer was virused out of its poor li'l mind the other day but tonight I wanted to spend some time here at LJ 'cause I've missssssssssed yooooooooooo all so much! *clings* ♥! I'll do my best to catch up on your recent events just ASAP! *squishes you all*

I was able to print my previous chapters of "Balancing Act" out as well as the 3,000+ words of the final chapter (despite the fact my computer was about to go into a brain-dead coma at the time; oh, he has so much heart! He tried so hard to keep going for me! *assigns waaay too much personality to inanimate objects, yes, it's true!* ;) ).

I'm seriously debating whether or not to break this chapter into two. I know that it's not exactly form to add another chapter when I've said it would be 6 chapters from the start, though. :S But I'm really very tempted to break it anyway. Here's my thinking: (list time, yay! ;) )

1. The first part is basically done. If it becomes the new Chapter 6, then I can get it posted fairly soon.

2. The second part isn't done. It's a LOT more cumbersome to write by pencil and paper when you're spoiled used to writing in Word. ;) If I wait until the whole thing is done, I have no earthly idea when that's going to be, especially if I can't get my computer (with Word) back up and running in the next few days.

3. MS Works tries real hard to be Word but... it's not Word. o_O ;)

4. I want my computer back, darn it!

5. Just filling space with this one 'cause it looks better as a Top 5 list. ;)

So here's the part where I'm accepting opinions 'cause I'd love to hear what y'all think! ;)

[Poll #1279533]

And because it's not ALL about the fanfic here at Casa de Aislynn's LJ, ;) here's a completely random poll that everybody can play along with! ;)

[Poll #1279534]

Welp, that's all for now. I have no pics on this computer so I can't even end with a picspam (though, you know, if you feel like lobbing a quick comment picspam my way just out of the kindness of your heart, I'd be much obliged... ;) ). Hope you're all doing well! I've missed hearing from you all liek woah! *clings* I'll be back as soon as I possibly can! *big hugs!* ♥!

PS - Quick question about monitors... This is a widescreen monitor and it makes everything look short and squatty (like the icons all look like rectangles, not squares, for example). Is there any way to fix that? 'Cause it's extremely annoying! O_O ;) I figure it's probably something with the resolution but if I make the resolution "bigger" then it's like the image is zoomed in on and you have to scroll from side to side to read things. :S (It's rather like the "face smooshed up against the window" effect that you get in vidding if you crop in too close to your subject. o_O ;) ) Anyway, might not be anything that can be done for it, I just thought I'd ask! I wish you could somehow get it to put widescreen bars down the sides and stop stretching the square picture to fill a frame it doesn't fit! :S Thanks! ♥!
