Cute, huh? It’s from Meez, yet another in the “create a cute little avatar” series of sites that pop up from time to time. There’s a longer animation loop (see under the jump) where I actually take pictures, which gave Prairie some good giggles because she can peek up the kilt. Heh. Oops. :)

In other news:

  • Xebeth‘s visit was a blast. Much fun watching the Pride Parade (and many pictures taken…I’ve finally gotten through them all and have a huge photoset up on Flickr) on Sunday, and being touristy at the Underground Tour on Monday.

  • Work’s been rather insane lately — lots of drama, much of which I shouldn’t really get into publicly (and, truth to tell, much of which I just plain don’t really know), but which resulted in our store being temporarily manager-less. Everyone’s getting a few more hours, since we’re one person short, and we’re taking turns being “manager” for the day (taking seniority to the extreme — whoever on shift has been working the most consecutive days is “manager”). It’s been…interesting.

  • Prairie and I went out to see the fireworks at Gas Works Park on Tuesday. Nice day relaxing in the sun, then things went all esplodey in the evening. Not a bad day.

  • We’re planning a trip down to meet Xebeth in Vegas in early August. This’ll be my first time in Vegas. Should be fun — we’ll be staying at the Stratosphere, seeing a show, and whatever else Xebeth (who has spent far more time in Vegas than either Prairie or I) has planned for us.

And…that’s the basics so far. Busy busy days for me!

Update: I snagged the full Meez avatar animation loop, complete with under-the-kilt views. Woo!

  1. Ick. Requires Flash 8, and Linux doesn’t support above 7.1 at this time. Lame. Be nice if Macromedia would support that. It’s only been a year plus 8 has been out, and not like the port from OSX to the rest of *nix would be hard if the coders know what they’re doing.
