I was trying to find a way of stopping the clock

My poem "Fjöturlundr (Saturnian)" has been accepted by ericmarin for the April issue of Lone Star Stories. It is mostly about the days of the week; also, Ragnarök. Probably I cannot blame fleurdelis28 for all of that.

Speaking of time, I suspect I should have mentioned before today that I will be attending this year's ICFA; I will be in Orlando from the 17th to the 22nd, and I have no idea what my online presence will be like. Last year indicates nonexistent, but maybe I will at least get some writing done. Anyone else going to be there? That I don't already know about?

I really hope someone has set the suitably anonymous Mr. Anderson's "Mummering at Christmas" to music, because I discovered it while looking for Simani's "Any Mummers Allowed In?" and it's awesome.

I photographed swans today.

I'm seeing Psholtii.

So it's my computer. Terrific. It had better go away soon . . .

Thank you!

sovay--this is one of those glitches with userpics that Livejournal talks about. It will go away, but not consistently--sometimes the wrong image will keep on appearing. When this happened to me (it's happened a couple of times with a couple of userpics), I deleted the userpic and then re-uploaded it with a slightly different title--and that solved the problem for good (touch wood).

(I, unfortunately, am seeing the 18th-cent painting)

Gyah. What causes this? Why can it not be fixed by Livejournal?

I haven't the faintest idea. I hate it. I have one friend who has a lovely userpic, an animated gif, of the surf washing over her name. Half the time, though, instead she's got a distorted photo of a person's face as a userpic. The worst case I ever saw was when my friend tritoneclarinet's image of a blue forest landscape was replaced with an image of a handgun :-(

I wish I could figure out a way (or better yet, I wish Livejournal could figure out a way) to prevent this from happening.

I cannot tell if I have solved the problem, of course, because all I know is what I see on my screen. I deleted and re-uploaded the image; tell me what you see?

Psholtii's back!

yup--now I see the proper image.

Assuming that I'm correct about who Psholtii is, I see him. I certainly don't see a painted city.
