Chase seems better, still it will take a long time before she is completely alright, if we even get there. I, myself, am not too good today - so I haven't done much. Except sit in front of my computer and taking care of her. Before it becomes dark again I am hoping to do some cleaning and just maybe finish that review for Moonlight.

But for now I just woke up from a short nap, as I began to feel dizzy. However cold water over my wrist seemed to be more refreshing than the entire one and a half hour attempt at sleeping.

Sitting on Jamballa, my personal homepage needs the overhaul, I just wish there was a nice little script for some of the things I want to do. Using Wordpress is not what I have in mind, but I love to have a feature where I could just correctt a few items (like for a to do list or a box with a current status).

So far I got the layout for the about me section, the love and hate one (although I feel already like changing it, but I am telling myself content is more important at this time), I got a nice little hiatus page, too. What I need to do is one for my joined fanlistings and one for "www and I" - where I talk about all my online-projects.

My thoughts on Barbossa

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Barbossa from Pirates of the Caribbean )

Again feel free to tell me your thoughts, your own sex appeal rating or what ever else comes into your mind, like if you need more explanation or if I have been to vague so that my sentences do not make any sense.

My thoughts on Lacroix

I thought even though I might not put them online soon, I could at least post my ratings and thought about characters here in this journal. Feel free to tell me how informative you think this is - informative in the sense if you now understand why I like this character ;)

Lucien Lacroix from Forever Knight )

Feel free to disagree with me on the rating points (obviously not on sex appeal as it is a personal rating, but I'd be interested in how he would rate on your personal scala) I also wrote something as to what is behind those rating pointss will post it back dated in a few minutes. (need to find a place to spend my free time at the uni) Done! Now I will post Barbossa! Yeah!

What's behind my rating system

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

Brainpower:

How clever the character is, one would be utterly stupid, characters who thrive on luck and never pause to think about what they are doing. The middle would be aimed at characters, who can see and act upon the obvious, but are not overly smart, although they might be creative in certain situations. The end of the scale is reserved for those who make little to no mistakes, think everything through and usually stay one step ahead of their enemies.

Physical:

How physical characters are, are they pure brains and avoid physical work and fights. Than they would probably go more towards a one or two, while the middle would be more for characters who mainly instruct or avoid physical challenges when possible. The more active charactes are and get their hands dirty the more likely they will be rated at the end of this scale.

Skill:

If the character is good at his profession, he will have a fair amount of stars. Should his skills go beyond the ordinary for his profession or life-style he probably will raise even more stars. Those who are not very competent at their job and have little to make up for it, will no doubt get one or two stars at most.

Presence:

How well the character can intimidate, lead or seduce other characters, a character with a low rating will no doubt need alternative means to get to his goals. Characters with high rating, usually can sway a situation just by being there and impressing the hell out of everyone.

Sex Appeal:

Definitely the most subjective rating point here, as it is not based on any facts or popular statistics, it is how attractive I find the character at hand. Low rating indicates that I find the character not very appealing, while from seven on you can be sure I would not dump the character out of my bed. As I usually find characters I like also very attractive (even though some might not think of them as appealing) this is probably the one section that will get the most golden stars.

Toughness:

A factor that is tied in a little bit with physical, but goes more about how well the character can take damage. Sometimes that is emotional but more often physical. Is it hard to kill him? Is the character virtually indestructable? All of course in relation to the fandom. Because otherwise I would need a larger scale to make up between the
difference of a machine, a vampire and ordinary mortals.

Badness/Goodness:

Depending on wether the characters is a good guy or one of the baddies, I will rate how good or bad they are. Villains with little malice will get fewer stars than those who are willing to destroy other without mercy. Same goes for heroes, those who are willing to risk a high body count will not rate high, while those who are caring about those around them and only go after the guilty ones will certainly rate higher. But also other factors go in this. A selfish hero will have less stars than a villain, who should be selfish.

lots of migraines again

The weekend wasn't so hot, so please don't wonder why I haven't replied to comments yet. I just did not felt so hot.

On Saturday evening and yesterday late I did feel best of all, but still not like writing or doing some of the more exhausting things on my to-do list. Therefore I did something that was both time consuming and only moderately creative.

I worked on my personal homepage jamballa. The set up as it is now is just not to myliking anymore. Okay the new layout I begun last year alreadey is not either, but I guess before I think much about that, I should have some more content to fill the site with anyway.

blabla about the new jamballa which might go online as early as 2010, considering how fast I work on this *lol* )

Did I mention I don't feel too hot this morning either, nose is closed up (but that is almost a given in this wether, not that I am allergic, but it is crocked and the night air closes it up, as I can't sleep with a closed window when it is so hot) and my digestion is still a bit rumbled up. Considering the weekend, I feel much improved though. I dreamt of my best friend who told me in the dream a few times, very sublte that I needed to lose weight. Yeah, I hear you *möp*
