vilakins: Vila with a party hat and a glass of wine (xmas)

Cards!

Sort of bad
My doctor rang and said he was so overwhelmed with sick people yesterday, he prescribed the same antibiotic as last time. As it obviously didn't work, he's sending another prescription to the local pharmacy. Sigh. I hope he actually does.

Very good
I have cards from [livejournal.com profile] spacefall--a shiny Holmes and Watson one, very Victorian-looking, and [livejournal.com profile] kalypso_v--a B7 S2 one!

And now I'd better try to finish mine so I can print and post them tomorrow. :-P

Your doctor is full of fail. D:

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
His problem is that he's so ready to spend as much time as needed with each patient--and take phone calls from others--that he gets too busy and forgets things. He's excellent if I actually go and see him, but then that's an hour or so of waiting too and I'm not noted for my patience.

Cute icon! When were they outside a brick building?

That's Harvest of Kairos. XD

Ah. This explains why I have expunged it from my memory. ;-)

And there's another good one!

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I spent all night making icons. I'll do a batch of them on the comm later. XDXDXD

And... Harvest is a bit stupid, but it has some nice caps to work with.

That one from your banner is really effective.

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
I quite like it myself. :D You're welcome to steal any if you fancy them, of course. ♥

LOOK! This one doesn't even have Vila in it! I forced myself to make one that didn't, hahaha.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
I look forward to seeing them all! I wish I didn't only have 10 spaces left.

Time to shell out money to the coporate man.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
I've got a permanent account and 130 spaces so far (120 used). Can I buy more? [goes to look] Nope, just earn another five eventually as far as I can tell.

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! I thought you only had 10 slots total!

Well, you can always delete old icons! I'm doing it all the time, hahaha. But if you've a permanent account, shouldn't you have 140 slots?

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Not according to the FAQ. I earn a loyalty one now and then, but they say the maximum is 135.

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
... well that's silly, because I have 140 right now. >_>

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe they changed the rules since.

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe so. But that seems strange. You should have the same number of icons as me, since we both have permanent accounts.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
The FAQ says permanent accounts get 100 icons plus loyalty ones up to 135 max. I'm guessing they changed the maximum at some point. When did you get your permanent account? I got mine in June last year.

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm, longer than that, so perhaps that's it? I got it a couple years ago, as I recall, when it was $150...

I went up to 140 a few weeks ago. They add one every few months. I'm trying not to use it until I really need to.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I wonder how they calculate loyalty points then! You joined after me and got a paid account after me, but I'm 5 behind. :-( [pouts]

I was going to say maybe I got the permanent one earlier, as you said "June last year" - but I think you're probably misremembering, as I got mine in June 2005, and I don't remember there being any further permanent account sale until 2007.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
It was indeed June 2005. I should have 140 too, then. :-( Maybe it's because I've always left some slots free. That's not very fair.

[identity profile] astrogirl2.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
Eeep. Well, I suppose it's good that he noticed, at least. :/

I never send cards. I feel mildly guilty about it. I'm considering offering to write people drabbles or something this year to assuage said guilt.

Speaking of writing, I'm hoping to finally get to your beta tonight...

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
I hate sending cards normally, but fannish ones are fun.

[livejournal.com profile] vandonovan enjoyed them so I'm feeling a bit better about it. I only sent you part 1, right?

[identity profile] astrogirl2.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Right. If and when you have pt. 2 ready, you can go ahead and send that, too.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
OK!

[identity profile] imhilien.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds like your doctor needs to eat more fish (for that added brain power!).

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
Ha! I'm about to do that myself, but I'm not sure it'll help. :-)
