| Okay, so finally I have managed to put together a version of our little documentary from The Walk that youtube has accepted... though the music ID thingy there has already notified me that Sony is having a claim on parts of the music... but at least they seem to let me keep it, so here it all is:

|
| Okay... the good news is: I have finally finished my video! \o/ \o/
Bad news: Youtube has rejected it due to it's length, so I have to re-edit it (*sigh*) and shorten it by approx. 4 minutes. Anyway, in the meantime you might want to have a look at the original version the way I had intended it. It is available for download HERE...

| I have googled my user name this morning, as meanwhile there is so much rubbish being published or semi-published about my person, including speculations about my mental health, that I thought it would be necessary to check every now and then what certain people are up to... By that, I have just found, among other things, a public LJ entry referring to the recent ongoings of this summer/fall involving a former so-called friend who turned stalker or whatever you wish to name it. No, I don't intend to elaborate on that whole story AGAIN. Anyway, the actions of this person towards and against me have been and are bad enough. They include spamming me with messages on almost every imaginable medium, one moment calling me a vindictive and emotional rapist, then again thanking me for having been such a good friend to her in earlier times, then begging me to come back to be her friend again, then blaming me for her suicidal thoughts... and the list goes on and on. She has been sharing out private information about me, lately, as well. Now, SHE is a problem of her own kind. But now third parties seem to chyme in in all of this as well!! PUBLIC LJ writings about me and my friends, including speculations about my psyche and about my having done the JB Memorial Walk at all etc... Okay, I've HAD it!!!Let me state a few things for the record: - Anyone in doubt about my having done the Walk? Check out youtube, LJ and several other sites regarding my video next week or earlier. Do call the Premier Inn Harlow Mill, where I have slept during the first night of the walk, and ask the receptionst who had provided me with fresh bandaids for my blistered feet.
- Beyond that, anyone of you wanting to claim their donations back? BE MY GUEST!!!! Oh, yeah, and as I have stated before, a first installment of money has already been transferred to the MDF, and needless to say, I have written proof for that.
- I am NOT going to elaborate on details of the "case", as it involves not only myself, but also the privacy of others, a fact to which respect is due.
Furtheron: - Certain people will, these days, find themselves banned not only from my LJ, but also the communities I maintain. I have not done so until now, as I was STILL willing to consider them unrelated third parties. This is obviously not the case anymore.
- AND I will take the liberty of doing so in the future with people who have access to the locked entries of my LJ AS SOON AS I SEE FIT, especially if I fear for MY privacy or simply get annoyed with the occasional fence straddler.
Sorry, folks, this is no fun post. It will be public for a limited time, and then go f-locked. Apart from that, I have some other (and good) things to post as well, but for obvious reasons I reserve that for a different entry. | |

| Congratulations (belated), dear, wonderful Jeremy, for your yesterday's 76th birthday!!
You are a constant source of inspiration to me, a joy in my life, and since you've become part of it, it has changed so much for the better! You will always occupy a special place in my heart, and not only in mine for sure!
And congratulations, Joan, as well...

I feel somehow bad about not having gotten my birthday video finished in time... still working on it... *sigh*

| I am happy to report that today I have been able to issue the first donation resulting from the Jeremy Brett Memorial Walk 2009 to MDF The Bipolar Organisation. The first installment on this has been GBP 85, and an at least similar amount is to be going to UK Cancer Research.
(I had not wanted to "stock" the incoming money forever, so I at least wanted to give away SOME of the money in advance - thus they can at least put it to good use.)
While I am working on the footage taken during the Walk in order to have a video ready as a tribute to Jeremy's birthday tomorrow, I will use that opportunity to once more invite potential donators, so that the complete donations are likely to be forwarded by the end of November.
More on that, hopefully, tomorrow...

| Hello F-list! :) I'd like to introduce my new account susaslounge to you, which I have created to shamelessly show off with my writings compile some of my (finished) writings as well as some video works, things about my singing, coaching and acting... and other arts I am dabbling in, like hopefully some drawings/paintings, jewelry works and designs. (As long as they relate to that era, you might soon find them in the victorianpart community as well, btw.) Please feel free to friend me now and render your input! :) Thanks and cheers, Susa P.S.: Ummm..., susaslounge is supposed to be a public account, but - I hate to say it - if I had reason to ban you from THIS one, please do save the both of us the trouble of trying there... - mood:accomplished

| ...is NOW to be found here: victorianpart You wear blue jeans, and yet you like to carry around a silver plated walking stick from time to time? Your writing desk has all the comforts of modern technology, but as for style you like to add an old fashioned banker's lamp? You like a traditional teatime as an alteration of your fast food habits? Wonderful! You like to search the flea markets for a bit of old fashioned elegance? You like the Victorian era's sophisticated ladies' hats, but the head wearing it bears a independent and more "modern" mind? You do not find it impossible to love "CSI" as well as "Sherlock Holmes"? "Kitsch" and art is not necessarily a contrast for you? You have at least a slight historian interest in the Victorian (and/or late Regency or Edwardian) era? Are you a writer of historical (fan-)fiction? Or a painter? Or a poet? Or a designer? Well... this could be a place for you! ~~~ Here you can: - discuss literature of the time or relating to that time - discuss historic backgrounds - post about related things you either sell or search - share your fave recipe for home made scones - promote and share your art - discuss movie and tv dealing with the Victorian era - give sight-seeing tips - ask questions and... and... and... ~~~ Would love to meet you there! :) - mood:accomplished

| Hello everybody! Yes, I am still here! After Morbus M had stricken again I am meanwhile back at work, back at being able to concentrate and back at working on the list of things I want to get finished within the next days, such as: - Video about the Jeremy Brett Memorial Walk
- Article about the same
- Update of "Journey to the Core"
Oh, and of course the one or other tasks that daily life throws in my way, so to speak. I will get my Grandmother's old bike on Saturday and see what good it can do to me regarding workout, time and stress and money management. Actually, I am looking very much foward to that, especially as it will make me feel more independent from the car as well. Also I am about to do a general tidying of my flat and cellar, which means I am heavily ebay-ing right now, items being sold and added to the sale almost everyday. Since my moving out and reorganising of my household due to the separation of my ex there is so much stuff I am about to get rid of, from clothes to china to a bit of jewellery to dancing shoes to books (German and English) to DVDs to VHS (German and English) to toys, music, audio books (German and English), decoration, electronics... Oh, I am LOVING it! No, really! I mean it gives me a good feeling to somehow tidy up my "life", and yeah, the money factor is of course an issue as well! :) If you happen to look for special things, just ask, I might have them in preparation for auctioning... and this is not exactly a joke! Current offers are to be found here, btw.... Cheers! - mood:awake
