Yes, another entry today. Shut up and enjoy it or I won't write for a week. (Can you say, "empty threat?" *rolls eyes*)
Well. I had
just been saying how I wasn't feeling anything. No sooner do I open my email than I find a response to something I had sent earlier today. I'd written feedback at
Stan Lee Media, makers of my beloved 7th Portal webisodes.
I'd been perusing the email addresses on some of my emailing lists. Lots of people have basic
Yahoo or
Hotmail addresses, and a few use ISP addys. Since all my lists are predominantly to all members of
The SciFi Vine, there's a lot of TSFV addys too.
And then there's a handful of addys that make me check the domain name. I think the latest to catch my eye was at
Danger Girl [dot] com. Out of the clear blue sky, envy caught me.
I want a 7th Portal email address. Badly.
Where was I? Oh, right. So I checked to see if there was a 7th Portal [dot] com. Sure enough,
it exists, and it points to Stan Lee Media's website, 7th Portal section.
So I wrote to SLM feedback suggesting they add email to their site. They already offer a variety of homepage builders for different sectors of interest. I mentioned
Big Mail Box and the fact that it's a free service, and made sure to point out that if SLM had email I'd check the site daily to see if I had new mail.
I ended my note with "Your Flash shows make my day."
The response I read minutes ago started with, "Wow! And you made our day!"
Do you know what this means?!
They read my note! They read my email right away, and sent a personal reply instead of just an email robot! This is too cool! Thus saith the 7th Portal addict. (I have 7P desktop wallpaper on my computer and the family computer, have identified one character as resembling a character of mine on an alternate timeline, and have 7P Flash trading cards saved on Shockmachine. Worst part? I watch them. Regularly. It's just such a great show for a comics fanatic like me!)
Plus, I did finish my diary layout for the time being. I even pleased my mom by getting up early today instead of staying awake and online overnight.
I'm so proud of me, in a Sesame Street-type way. *huggles self happily*
