Man that was a long absence.. Not a fun one either. I finally gave in to my windows updates and installed Windows XP Service Pack 2 and everything went to hell. Well not everything, but everything internet related did. I could browse for two minutes (enough to click my comment link) and then I couldn’t go anywhere. No messenger but yahoo would connect and that was only twice for about four minutes. I could log on, but couldn’t do anything so coming online was really pointless for me.
After a lot of uninstalling, reinstalling, incinerating and cursing I kicked it back into gear. So I’m back now, as you can see. I suppose that really was a stupid thing to type. Way to point out the obvious Melissa *pats herself on the back*
On the plus side I got a TON of work done. You guys will have so many smilie packs to choose from when I’m done you won’t know what to do with yourselves. I’ve got square-round, round, square and teardrop. I’ve got 11×11px, 9×9px and 14×14px. And I have revamped the old and added some new and there are new colors and everything.
The smilie packs on here now come with 48 smilies and icons when the new ones arrive and the old ones are updated you’ll get 60 smilies and icons per pack. The first pack I’m going to make available is the silver so I don’t have to use Becca’s smilies anymore. I love them to death but I’d rather use my own. Maybe if I use my own more people will realize I offer smilies to download?
I think a lot of people just skim through the blog and leave a comment and never even make it to the goodie section. *shrugs* Anywho, you’ll like the new smilies there are some really cute ones and one naughty one, I couldn’t resist. My computer had me frustrated and mad so I created a smilie to represent that. He’s not too naughty but he’s holding up his middle finger *nods* Soo appropriate right? There’s also a drunk one and one that dances. Can you tell I was bored?
Now that the smilie discussion is out of the way I can safely say that.. Toby is EVIL. He’s small, fuzzy and extremely cute but he is full on EVIL. I wake up at least twice per night to him attached to my head biting my face. I bite him back and put him in the floor but he just comes back. If you make your hand into a claw he turns into super evil Toby. He huffs himself up, puts his ears back, growls and attacks. It’s not a play attack either it’s an ‘I’m going to rip your arm off and make you cry’ attack.
Even though he’s mean I can’t help but laugh at him I mean come on, he’s only five inches tall. My right arm is covered in war wounds. BUT, for every scratch and hole in my arm, he has a tooth mark on his ear lmao No I don’t hurt him, I’ll say that now so you can’t scream at me with ‘oh the horror!’ ‘Oh my god you’re satanic! How could you?!’ so 
Beat ya to it
That doesn’t tell all that I’ve been doing but since the rest isn’t near as ‘exciting’ (that’s sarcasm people) I’ll just make a list of it.
I cleaned my room four times, read two books, cleaned every window of the house on the outside to get rid of any spiderwebs, cooked food I couldn’t eat just to have something to do, painted a wooden bear sign for my mother, drank more coffee than normal :yummy:, cleaned the house twice, cleaned all the critter cages and sat on my sofa staring at the wall. Sounds like I had a ball right? I think not 
Bubss last blog post..Help Me Win $25 (and More!)
Haha I’m overdue for a room cleaning too.
WEEH! more smileys!
im going to go look at it and snag one pack when you’re done :P
heh. sorry bout that, the revamp was painful i overlooked linking you for happy bunny
TOBY IS EEEVEEL! ehehhe feed him vodkha lol that would definitely calm him up
yr post made me smile heh. you write in the most UNboring way about boring things
lol *i dunno if that was a compliment or what*
anypoo thanx for the layout compliments! :* i soo totally love the site’s look now too, i should kick myself for obsessing too much about milk but at least something good comes out of it
ps: i hope the new smileys don’t have bevels!
oh and pps: how do you show a default picture when the commentor doesn’t have avatar? thanx! :*
Your smilies are awesome. Hehe, and Windows XP is full of bugs. Sometimes it doesn’t work for me. :\
Aaww, cute smilies! Maybe I’ll use some, whenever I’m in the mood to install them^^;;;
I went to take my computer to the shop and they installed Windows XP Service Pak 2 for me, but when I got it back I kept on having some errors as well but they were nothing like yours though. I ended up fixing them. x.x;
Aaww I’m guessing that EVIL thing is a puppy? Ccuute. I have a new Chihuahua, and he would bite real hard! But it’s not the kind of bite your puppy is doing though. For some odd reason though, mine has a thing for my hair and would play with it O.o; so I wind up having a bunch of knots in my hair that are hard to brush out x.x;
i love your smilies, very cute. i get scratches all the time from my cat Cricket. When she’s hyper she goes freakin’ nuts. It’s funny as crap.
Ahh yes, computers can be quite mean. Mine is about to go ka-boom! I need to get some major updates.
I’m glad you managed to make a lot of smilies though, thats gotta make some smile if not you, and hey the more inappropriate the smilie the better, I say.
Toby sounds adorable, I like evil mostly because I’m a tad bit evil myself. But cute and evil, thats a winning combination!
grrrr… i hate it when the computer fucks up.
lol seems like your computer isn’t that good :P
Congratz on making it work.
Windows can be (/is) rather shoddy at times (/most of the time!)
Awesome that it all works now though.
Ew… my computer (I have windows xp) and it tries to get me to update all the time but I always hit no hahaha. Heh at least you were able to get lots of things done
Hello upsite of things lol :blah: … that smiley made me laugh so I had to use it haha
ooh..the smilies are sexy. i’d so download a set if i weren’t too lazy right now…but of course i am!
wow, you got a lot of stuff done. were you bored? i only do that much cleaning when im bored…other than that i just sit right here. on my computer. tee hee!
oh, and in case you didn’t notice, i have a new url. fh from letter-bomb.net had to shut her site down–so there i am! take care.
Oooh! I’m going to check out your smilies! I’m sorry internet was being stupid for you and that you couldn’t really go anywhere on it. That must’ve sucked. But I’m glad you are back! ♥
Glad to see your back from your computers little hissy fit lol. And i was one of the commenters who didnt just skimed though your blog, i read it all wohoo!. And dam i love all your little smilies! I might even have to get me some for myself! Keep it up :sing:
Wow, your rat sounds adorable - yet a little bit scary. I would laugh too. My dog tries to kill me all the time, and though she’s the size of an A4 sheet, she never really hurts me, it’s just for kicks.
I’m glad you’re back, updating can be like that sometimes.
Hey hey. That’s sucks that your computer got a bit screwed but glad to see you got it working again and these new smilies are wicked. Ooh I see naughty smilie.
Computer problems are the horror of everyone’s dreams… thankfully my computer went without a hitch when I installed the XP Service Pack. I think.
Yes, I won’t know what to do with myself after you make all those smiles. I’ll check them out even though I don’t use them, hehe!
Reading how you cleaned the house and everything sure inspires me to clean my room…
Grrr… I wound up accidentally hiutting the enter button. Anyways, my computer screwed up when I installed XP 2. I had to reinstall XP. And then I installed SP 2 again. :P The second time it only changed the boot screen a bit.
And I thought my little dog was bad. All she does is bark a lot though. :P
“I wake up at least twice per night to him attached to my head biting my face.” That just cracked me up to no end. That was hysterical. It sounds like when my cat was a little kitty, she used to run and chase my feet when I would walk. And she would attach herself to my ankles and start gnawing at them like a rabid dog. Crazy!
Those simlies rock
xx
Welcome back. I actually had to do a lot of cleaning and stuff for my computer also a month or so back because I was just going spyware crazy. Stuff like that totally bites :[
I can’t wait till your 9×9 smilies are up, since I’m always looking for new ones to put up on my site.
argh, SP2 is so buggy! in installed it ona whim thinking ‘why not?!’..gah, what a mistake! everything died..it had major conflicts with pretty much all my drivers. several formats later, i’m finallly on track again, so you’re definitly not the only one with probs!
Toby sounds like a wee devil^^ an extremely cute one at that heh..i’m sure he’ll grow out of using your head as an attack target one day!
