                <description><![CDATA[ Had some technical difficulties with the tablet for a few days, because Vista sucks ass.  It's fixed, but I've had to deal with classmates and an icky business paper all week so I haven't been able to really work on my doodle.<br /><br />Oh.  I'm the youngest in my class at 19 going on 20.  The oldest in my class is a 64 year old grandma.  Why does everyone feel compelled to share their age, location, and family?  Are we supposed to care where you live, or how old you are?  We care about how many kids you have and how many they have, and how long you've been married?  Since when?  I refuse to introduce myself, I am not here to make friends, and I have a year long initiation potential 'friends' are subject to because I have trust issues.  And I hate people.<br /><br />We start small groups next week, so I can rightfully crack down on grammar and spelling, namely pointing out that "a lot" has a damn SPACE in it.  Also tending to the issues on whole/hole, your/you're, there/their/they're, where/wear/ware/were (I HAVE SEEN 'were' FOR 'where' I KID YOU NOT) and explaining that being DYSLEXIC is no excuse for not using SPELL CHECK.  If we were writing it would okay, but we're typing and required to use spell check anyway.  Hurgh.<br /><br />In other news: 4 days, 17 hours, and 15 minutes till Lindsey's heeere <3<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I have a doodle in progress in PS, so that means it -will- be up soon!  It's nothing special though.  At least, not to me.  To me, it's slowly getting over my creativity slump.  And by slow I mean I'm being a bit nit-picky and spending hours on one part of it at a time.  I have a ways to go, despite a reference photo, because I'm only referencing the bodies (there are two figures in this); the heads are all me.  And faces.  And hair.  Ooh, I can't wait to do that..<br /><br />Starting on July 20th my already scarce presence will be even scarcer, as I start school [online] and have to do 10 weeks at a time before a week-long break.  One school week at this school is Mon-Sun, so that's school every damn day for 70 days at a time.  WHOO.  EDUCATION.  But I'm excited, and my admission advisor (who's freakin' awesome and funny) is excited too.  If all goes well I'll have my AA in Business Administration with concentration in Criminal Justice on 8/22/10, then I can get to work on my BA in Forensic Science, yay!<br /><br />July 29 however, is an epic day, as that is the day my beloved <a href="http://kayori.deviantart.com">~kayori</a> moves in!  REJOICE!  I'm so happy!  No more yearly visits or painful goodbyes!  Just 24/7 access to the love of my life :3<br /><br />So, I'm going to get back to work on that doodle.  It might be another week before it's done, but we'll see, eh?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok.  Maybe a *little* lazy.<br /><br />But again, as I've stated before, my dad's got the only Vista compatible scanner and he's still in Atlanta for another 1-2 weeks.  I'd have prolly had stuff up a few weeks ago but he got called back to work 2 days into his week off because the people he supervises are idiots and hardly get anything done right without him there.  How they still have jobs, I don't know.  But still, that's the situation.<br /><br />I don't know the name of this particular saw that they needed him to operate, but I know it was on of the big ones that, if you screw up, you don't lose a finger, you lose your arm O_o.  Fun!<br /><br />So, I'll continue to sit around, playing Oblivion, dabbling with the one traditional doodle I need to get up here (the digital ones are very close to getting deleted and redone) till he gets back.  Don't expect this is to be some masterpiece, it's really a random thing that I'm tempted to completely redo.  I do know I'll end up adding on to it though.  It's in bust form right now.<br /><br />On a side not, I wish summer would hurry up and get here.  I want to see my beautimous <a href="http://kayori.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/a/kayori.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconkayori:" title="kayori"/></a> again ;w;<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Dear Scanner/Printer,<br /><br />I miss you.  I wish Vista wasn't a convicted rapist.  I'll fix the desktop one day, and you can be used again.  Just not on my laptop.  Vista doesn't like you (or likes you a lot hence the raping).  So don't feel bad when I snatch Dad's scanner/printer when he gets home.  It's all I can use right now.  You're freaking crazy if you think I'm going to just forget about you after what was paid for you, regardless of the fact that they lied about your compatibility (that so-called patch thing only made you scan like a schizophrenic).  You will return to the desktop once it gets fixed.  It's not your fault Vista sucks so much ass. <3<br /><br />That all basically means I HAVE been working on various traditional pencil doodles, but my dad is often out of town/state and has the scanner I need, so I have to wait for his return and hope I even remember to ask to borrow it for a short.<br /><br />He keeps meaning to get me one but, we share the forgetfulness.  Ah well.  So, yes, there are things lined up, but they have to wait.  I have to wait.  You have to wait.  We ALL have to wait.<br /><br />Till then I'm going to continue cursing out these goddamn WoW patches (WTF 2.6 GB patch of fecking death?!) until they finish while subsequently playing Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne (where's me a damn WC IV Blizzard?!  I know you just did Diablo III but srsly, I want a GAME I can play on a current storyline when the ever-evolving WoW can't be paid for. </rant> ).  Because I have been a Warcraft junkie for a good 13 years.  Got me while I was a 'lil thing.  Sigh.  Time to ogle me some Night Elves.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Again; NOT LAZY. Just not working on the project I had to restart.  Currently going through paper mache madness.<br /><br />It's time consuming, but fun.  Cutting things into shape however, isn't that fun.  It's rather annoying.  And painful (if you're kinda OCD like me you'll take a razor to it to shape things, and in all likelihood, get nicked a few times).<br /><br />Embarking on a project that I'm hoping to be complete in 2 years (give or take, cause it really won't take that long, but I'm not made of money and I'm going to need a LOT of stuff, which brings me back to the "this town sucks for jobs" issue). Yeeaaaahhh...so don't be terribly surprised if I flat out disappear from here.<br /><br />So. Til whenever I return.  Have a happy Halloween 8D<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I haven't been lazy.  Swear.  I have a WIP in PS.  In fact, it's the second time I've started it.<br /><br />Long story short; started doodle, 8 hours later got hungry, ran to kitchen to forage, returned in 5-6 minutes, Vista installed updates and restarted while I was gone, bye bye doodle.<br /><br />Suuuure I should have saved it but I was ALMOST DONE.  Like, an hour away from being done!  And you don't normally expect things to up and restart!  DAMN YOU VISTA.  YOU FAIL SO HARD.<br /><br />I started the thing over again a few days back and have merely been taking my time on it.<br /><br />I might do a quick vector rendering thingy later today just to appear less dead XD<br /><br />My signed WKAP CD and IKAP shirt should be here Monday. I'm exciiited.<br /><br />Oh, and I can't forget:<br />TWO WEEKS! *squeespazasplosions*<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I'm certain of it.<br /><br />In other news, if my dad decides it's okay, which I hope he does cause it's SRSLY a good deal, I will soon be the proud owner of a signed copy of Amanda's WKAP album and all the goodies that come with the CD/Shirt bundle.  If it were closer to my birthday I'd go for the Neil Gaiman/Vinyl package but, hey, s'all good.<br /><br />I've become rather addicted to Unbeatable Banzuke and Ninja Warrior on G4...<br /><br />In even better, raperific news; FOUR WEEKS.  Four weeks until asplosions of all kinds, where days filled with so much glee and clinginess that not even meeting Bowie -and- Amanda and getting kissed by both at once on the cheek could come close to rivaling!<br /><br />I mean that.<br /><br />Now let's see..nothing much really going on in the art department right now, unless constant hair alterations count as art XD  I'm simply not drawing any ideas to mind, but it's not a big deal.  In time, that's all.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I HAVE NOT BEEN LAZY.<br /><br />Ok, maybe a little.  But really, I've had a lot of crap to deal with at home plus getting over a minor case of strep, and all of it recently cleared up over the weekend.<br /><br />Frankly, I'm tired of excuses, whether I mean for them or not.<br /><br />So, I honestly plan to have something up by tomorrow, not counting an ID because that's too easy.<br /><br />Still on the hunt for a job.  If anything could ever make me feel inadequate, it's not having a job after roughly 2 years of looking for one.  It's sad and weighs rather heavily on my mind, especially when my parents keep bringing it up.  But, with any luck and a lot of persistence I'll have the one I want in at least two months.<br /><br />And people say small towns are nice.  PFFFT.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Not liking the brother and his wife living in the house again.  Not one bit.  Didn't like it 3 years ago, pretty much hating it now.<br /><br />Aside from that, I've got *ideas* for doodles, but alas my sleep schedule and the like ('the like' being laziness and continually being distracted by a shiny or a fuzzy) have kept me from putting anything on paper -or- doodling in Photoshop.<br /><br />Which I did attempt to do today, but for reason my tablet driver has yet again gone missing (wtf man) so the whole pen pressure and such was gone and I haven't felt like restarting my laptop to make it work.  Hasn't done that in a while but, oh well.  I blame Vista for everything.<br /><br />I have this urge to make this random comment but at the same time I don't want to simply because, while I could really care less, some people are apt to give me hell over it.  Despite it being a complimentary comment.  But it's my opinion, too.  So even though I wouldn't care what anyone said about my opinion-based complimentary comment, I'm not going to simply to avoid the stupidity of whatever may be said to it.  I just felt you should all know that o_O.  This behaviour is all a part of the oddity that is the whole of my being.<br /><br />I'm also well aware I probably need to be all, "NEW ID OMGZ!" buuuut...haven't snaffled the camera -and- I'm not all that keen of self-photography.  Mark has recent pictures of me on his camera but I haven't been able to catch him to ask that they be sent to me.  Best part about those pictures is I'm all giddy and smiley because I was pleasantly plastered.  Wonderful, I know, but you can't tell I am.  But I can help you all get an idea of the current hairstyle: Look up Gary Oldman's role as Zorg from The Fifth Element and there you go, but instead of dark brown/black it's UBER NEON PINK and glows under blacklight 8D.  But that's not why I have it the way I do, I just realized it a few days ago.  'Sides, Gaz is awesome so I'm not in any way put out about it.<br /><br />If I felt like it I could possibly print screen a shot from this pointless built-in webcam that I never nor will I ever use.  I doubt I will, cause the quality is crap.<br /><br />Oh, Babs is going to have her kittens soon and I get to keep one x3  Only because when I move out I can't take Spot, whom I've had for 9.5 years, and I won't take Izzie because my mom really likes him.  So yeah.  Yay kittehs!<br /><br />So, until I update something or another, auf wiedersehen~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, the nerves and such are better, but if I press the underside of my thumb down on anything too hard it goes numb for a few hours.  So naturally, I'm careful about what I do that involves my thumb.  Like drawing, picking heavy stuff up, catching myself when I trip over my cat, etc.<br /><br />In other news, the art department is on a nice, long hold.  But I might whip something up eventually, but all of my "traditional" tools are in one of the many boxes in my room.  I could find a pencil no problem, however, I have no desire to draw at the moment.<br /><br />I do want to try and fit in one of these boxes before I put stuff in it, though. <br />...<br />I fiiit 8D<br /><br />Anywho, almost got everything packed away.<br /><br />Not moving RIGHT NOW, however much I'd LOVE to (plus I've just had this urge to box all of my stuff up).  Gotta go ask Jessica if they can afford to squeeze me on their schedule thing cause that's a place I love to work at, the only reason I don't is because that's like my second family and getting money from them, although I'd be earning it, sorta bothers me.  It bothered me when they'd pay me for helping out when I used to go over way back when.  But now I need the money, and yeah...but knowing her mom, she'll put me on even if she really shouldn't.  I love that family, but I'd really rather them keep it if they need it.<br /><br />So, work there, save up monies, and move out.  Hopefully in like, a few months.  Because I dislike this place with a great intensity.  And about 95% of the people living here.  But I'm scheming, always scheming...I have various plans to make this work.  And if they fail, I didn't fail. I just get to attack it from another angle.  Yay!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I've managed to allow my spine to mess up some nerves and blood vessels somehow.  I'm quite numb, and my right thumb was the first to go, and it actually hurts right now and it's starting to run up my arm.<br /><br />Last time this happened it was just this arm and it locked up for two weeks, and it was because of a pinched nerve.  Since my entire physical being is all tingly with the sensation of numbness, something in the spinal region is all whacked out.<br /><br />Mum bluntly said, "Your spine." and walked off.  So um, I guess I have to sit around and wait it out as usual.  I keep twitching around randomly in hopes I might miraculously free whatever's stuck.<br /><br />I just find it weird my -spine- would shut my thumb down first o_O...*shrug* I doubt I'm wired correctly anyway.<br /><br />The shaking, however, is probably the caffeine.<br /><br />It feels really weird to be completely numb, and sorta like I'm completely bruised.  It's NOT comfortable, Pink Floyd.  I doubt there's such a thing as being "comfortably numb" unless you're strung out on some drug.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well.  I'm glad to actually be submitting stuff without hideously long intervals of time in between them for once.  I'm working on another at the moment as well, because I <i>really</i> have to keep myself occupied right now or I'm going to snap.<br /><br />And because I'm growing fond of this method of computer doodling.<br /><br />Also because I'm bored with another hellache.<br /><br />But I'm stubborn and while I need to sleep I won't until I finish this thing, and I know it'll take at least another two or three hours, depending.<br /><br />So, expect some random things, and don't be surprised if I disappear for a bit.<br /><br />In the event of my disappearance I'm probably;<br />A)Sleeping.  For a long time.  20 hours max (honest).<br />B)Actually doing stuff other than sitting in the floor with my laptop (ohnoez!)<br />C)Sitting in the floor, but not with my laptop, and scheming with high hopes.<br />D)Magically doing all of the above, because my multi-task skills are awesome.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Firstly: <u>Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse</u> by Ben Templesmith kicks ass.  Go buy it.  Now.<br /><br />Secondly: New doodle coming up later today!  PROMISE!  I just haven't decided whether or not to upload it in segments (which would only be three different ones) or piece it together in PS and upload the ENTIRE thing.<br /><br />See, altogether it's a 4'7 x 1'5 drawing XD;  Not only will I be spending some time with the scanner today, I'll be piecing it together anyway (and I know I'll be anal over it) >_>...so I might as well upload it in its entirety!  Unless of course the resizing bastardizes its quality.  So, viewers may have to download the actual size, and if you have dial-up, you're screwed.  Sorry, but, um...it would probably crash your intranets XD.  Dial-up friendly version would prolly be the full-size view.  I'm hoping it'll look decent after it's transfer into the virtual world @_@...otherwise I'll have to pull out the tripod and borrow my sister's camera.  I REALLY don't want to have to do that.  Light has a nasty tendency to make glares off of pencil lead.<br /><br />Thirdly: I love my kitty, Izzie.  I can share my chocolate soy milk with something cute and fluffy now ;o;  He's been wormed, and I'm not a germaphobe, so...yeah!  He likes porter and ale too (ew).  And he's fat and fluffy and thinks he's a person <i>and</i> a dog.  Hee <3.<br /><br />Time to make nice with the scanner~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
I don't really have a reason pertaining to myself either.<br />
<br />
But.  I felt like letting it be known that something interesting is <i>finally</i> going on in this place.<br />
<br />
We have ourselves a serial killer <3<br />
<br />
Wonder when they'll catch him, though, I'm compelled to go talk to him if he's mental.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's been a while since my last update o_O....my bad XD<br />
<br />
A lot of family drama has ensued in the house, and as an anti-dramatic,  drama-hating, socially awkward being, I have been doing my best to avoid it.  Unsuccessfully, too, sadly.  But, that's life I suppose.<br />
<br />
As for me, haha...well I'd put up my most recent ID but I think I better get my hand to work on something first >_>...then a new ID.  Simply because I constantly change my hair and feel I should remind people of this yet that's all I've been putting up.<br />
<br />
Mom's sorta been a betch lately, my sister too, but not so much, amazingly.  And Homecoming, while a rather stupid tradition in my opinion, is apparently way more important than anything I may need this week.  I know this because my mom basically said so in a roundabout way, that went something like, "I can't help you do anything this week, I have to help your sister get ready for Homecoming Saturday."  O RLY.  WELL.  Fine.  I'm sure I could set the dance hall on fire by myself, thank you very much.<br />
<br />
I'd do everything I needed to do myself, y'know, if she hadn't told Darcey to take his time working on my car, which I need, like bad >_>.<br />
<br />
But aside from all that crap, I go to bed the happiest person in the whole universe because the most <i>awesome</i> person in the whole universe has made me such :3  And I love them dearly, more than anyone in the entire universe, and more than anyone could ever hope to fathom <33<br />
<br />
And that is <b><u>NOT</u></b> an exaggeration.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Currently have art put off to the side, give or take the stencils I've made/am making and painting on my trenchcoat.<br />
<br />
Cut and dyed my hair yet again XD.<br />
<br />
Took a nice look inside and decided I had to let it all out.<br />
<br />
I'm enjoying my newfound happiness.  Finally XD.<br />

I KNOW WHAT I AM.  AHAHA.  AHA.  HA.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I've spent most of the day with my mom and I'll be spending the rest of it with her and tomorrow.  I get along with her more than I do any of my friends, just about.  Lindsey, you're an exception XD.  Usually, I know, if you spend too much time with a person you become annoyed with them, and I've had my rough bouts with my mother but all in all, I enjoy spending time with her because she's like me, and she tells me I remind her of when she was my age.  Though we're both guilty of acting like 12 year olds.  Nothing wrong with that!<br />
<br />
Ehhh, tomorrow I get my hair cut and dyed finally @_@...and I get to have lunch with the hairdresser cause it's my aunt X3.  I passed out last night and my mom woke me up by nearly rolling over on me X_x...attack of the sleeping stick woman!  Srsly.  So I went to my room, and it was like 5:30 in the morning, laid on my bed for an hour listening to my MP3 player and drinking orange juice and eventually fell back asleep only to be woken up at 8:30 by my phone going off which was a good thing but all in all I didn't get to the capital in time so this evening I will go meet with Rachel.  I've been cleaning off some shelves...I smell of the liquid Goo-Gone.  Eugh.  Time for vinegar...then baking soda..then a lot of soap before I get high off of it.  THAT'S NOT COOL.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Not my motto but that's what happened.  I fell asleep on the couch at about 6:30 last night.<br />
<br />
Yesterday was fine, had it's moments where, had I been an outright betch, I'd have gone home long ago after a few harsh words.  I know he still loves me, he admitted it, but that doesn't change my mind.  Other than that we had fun being stupid.<br />
<br />
A guess in a few minutes I'll ask my mom to cut my hair again, because an inch is far too long for the back of my head at the moment.  I'm being picky, I know, but I also know what I want, and I'd like to have it done before I do it myself and get yelled at for it.<br />
<br />
I got the comic I wanted, though @_@...  <u>Arkham Asylum: A Serious House On Serious Earth</u>, I love it so <3.<br />
<br />
That's it really, unless me having watched POTC 3 for the third time is anything O_o.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I NEED TO DRAW.  I'll do that later this week.<br />

David's matured.  So now I'm biting my lip because he's pretty much one of the nicest younger guys I know and got rid off when he wasn't mature.  Showing up outside my window when my mom's awake is a very stupid thing to do.  But I'm going with him to his dentist's appointment in the morning and to the mall and movies.<br />
<br />
I'm not keen to go back.<br />
<br />
I realize this is more than 'a few simple words' but they were all on my mind.  Among other things.  So perhaps tomorow I'll have a whole rant of the day's events for everyone to indulge on if they feel like it.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I made my dad fall out of his chair laughing with my voice message X3.  Sadly I wasn't there to witness this but he called me later to tell so.  So, it made my day as well as his.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I've had the bloody hiccups for eight hours straight...  It's really getting old.<br />
<br />
Anyway, catching up...<br />
Weird Al's concert was great, I only wish security weren't such bethches, seeing as they lied and rushed us out and the next day we learned that Al came out about 45 minutes after we left to sign stuff, but I can wait another year.  Really, I can.  I waited like..2-3 for this one so a year's nothing.<br />
<br />
But I CAN'T wait until July/August for multiple reasons.  (Psst..pesssterrrr).  Aside from that, I get to see my dad finally...I don't think I've seen him since Christmas o_o.<br />
<br />
Uh...haha, that's it really, nothing all that interesting going on at the moment.  I have a drawing to finish, though...more like a thousand or so really but I'm 55% done with this one XD.  And uh, in my spare anti-drawing time I write random stuff with my calligraphy pens and I'm obviously easily amused by it.  Then again, the pens make writing fun and pretty-like.  Writing names is usually what I do, and add little designs to the letters and everything...yeah..<br />
<br />
I'm going to sit here and be bored for a bit now.  Ta-ta.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I dun think I can wait that much longer.  I wanna go and see Weird Al NOW dangit @_@.<br />
<br />
I'd also like 2009 to roll around a bit quicker as well.<br />
<br />
I have another painting project to tend to as well, seeing as I finished my guitsr stand Braxton built me XD.  He's built my poster frames so I get to attack them with more paint and stuff...  Might actually make a stencil first and go from there, after giving it a glossy black base.  OR..zomg, I'll do what Jaquda's doing to my bedframe @_@.  Fweeee, I can't wait till I go pick them up X3.<br />
<br />
And Braxton, I might as well just paint it in your shop, you have all the paint o_o.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I wanna go baaaaack T_T.  I miss you ;;<br />
<br />
Which I'm guessing is why I can't sleep cause it's all, "...Duuude...it's all..funky feeling in here >_>..and quiet.  *stares and ceiling* o_o...."<br />
<br />
At least your mom said something about me possibly returning in the summer XD.  That's a good sign o_O.  But let's work on getting her to let that protective grasp go by letting you come down here >_>...so I can be all, "OMG LOOK!  BEACH <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />!"  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/eek.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":o" title=":o (Eek)" /> You can stalk the stockboy with me!  *snort*<br />
<br />
And stuff, because stuff is good.  You like stuff, don't deny it.<br />
<br />
On another note, in a couple of days my Bowie door poster and Hours poster thingy will be here <3.  Now I'm running around trying to find a 40" x 60" frame XD;.  I'll ask my brother make me a 27" x 77" frame >_>, and a 40" x 60" if I can't find one @_@.  And let him get artsy with it/them.  Wewt.  And then I have to get my mom to sandblast my iron bedframe and then have Jaquda paint it all psychedelic-like X3.<br />
<br />
Later, I'm tearing all the tin foil off of my walls and gonna go about painting them all white again to cover up my "Yeah, I got bored." doodles XD.  And um....that's about it.  Hopefully I can con my mom into going to town today >_>.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I almost decided to sleep through this whoooole day so that I would only have Wednesday to squee about, but alas, I had to awake to make sure I had everything, which I'll also check tomorrow and insanely early on Thursday.<br />
<br />
And I had an idea!  I'll just mix my red and blue and see if what basic art knowledge has taught us works (cause y'know, hair dye's funny about that stuff o_O).  And I don't care if it looks funkeh, since it seems that -after- I return my aunt will be able to make it all rainbowy X3.  And it was cotton candy-ish a few days ago.<br />
<br />
And the reason there aren't any piccies is because the little heathenous child I call a sister has the camera >_>.  But I'll just ask nicely for it later :3.  Floofeh mowhawk of d00m.<br />
<br />
Now I'm just going to run around the house and not care how fast time flies by X33.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Gah, I would <i>love</i> to strangle my sister.  It wouldn't solve anything but it would make me feel better.  I'm so sick and tired of her behaviour and how upset it's making my mom.  I keep screaming bootcamp, all the while knowing it wouldn't do a damn thing.  My dad could fix it but my mom won't tell him what's going on because he doesn't need the stress while he's about 300 miles away and unable to get here to whip her into shape.  Or give her that look.  The look that makes you cry o_O.  It's creepy.  But pwnful.  I loves mah daddeh X3.<br />
<br />
So on another note, yay for me actually pulling through with a doodle!  I have another, well, a few actually, that I'm still working on.  One of which might not make it here because I can tell once I'm done I'll immediately embark on revamping it.  But once the background of this other one's done it'll go up.<br />
<br />
Background's are evil so don't think it'll be up in a few days XD.  More like..a week or two XD.  Depending on my motivation.  Or if I can stop oogling it and just draw, gawd.  That's a problem of mine sometimes, just to ogle what I'm working on and never really finish it, or I may wind up half-arsing it.  It's a habit but you can't really blame me when I tend to focus mainly on Bowie stuff.<br />
<br />
And if you do, then what's wrong with you?!<br />
<br />
Ah well, I'm gonna bum around on multiple websites and watch random stuff on youtube.<br />
<br />
*pirate rape tags you all* AHAHAHA!<br />
<br />
....don't ask if you don't get it. XD<br />
<br />
Remember, petition for Bowie to wear thigh hugging pants XO (cause they be the smex on him)!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I haven't been at school for 3 weeks XD...cause of..this uh..'pernicious anemia.'<br />
<br />
WHOO.  Not really 'whoo,' more like, "...............*twitch*" cause of the headaches and the new kill-me diet the stupid doctor has me on.<br />
<br />
But oh well.<br />
<br />
Yesterday I hung out with Rachel, which was fun :3.  It was the first time in about a week my mom let me out of the house without her supervision XD.<br />
<br />
Only reason I'm housebound is because internally I'm unstable o_O?  Heart's not really in any position for me to run around freely.  Damn you anemia XO!<br />
<br />
Now I don't know what to do, as I woke up at 12am...  Took a nap today and slept through the rest of the day >_>...  Might crash in the tribble nest later.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Something's very wrong.  Unable to put my finger on it is only making it worse.<br />
<br />
It bothers me.  It's been bothering me since Christmas Eve.<br />
<br />
It might as well kill me.<br />
<br />
I think that's what it'll do if I can't figure it out.  Or maybe I do know, and don't realise it, and my ignorance is going to eat me.<br />
<br />
Speaking of ignorance...<br />
<br />
If ignorance is bliss, then why aren't more people happy?<br />
<br />
Anyway, I need to curl up somewhere and disappear.  For a long time.  And not talk to anyone.<br />
<br />
First, though, I need to ask Laura if she'd like me to paint the lion so she can tend to the store since Sandy's too busy to paint it anymore.<br />
<br />
If I get to, I'll take pictures, and that might be the only time I come back here, unless I miraculously whip something up in my room.<br />
<br />
Doubtful.<br />
<br />
Time to go wrestle with another issue, which I thought I beat down last year.  Ehh, I don't think I'll win this one.  But it's ok, I can live with it.  I like living with it, actually.  It makes my day.<br />
<br />
I hope my dad can come down to see us next week...I really need to see him.<br />
<br />
That's it, really.  So good-bye, I love you.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
But the Bowie Joker was a must, because it popped into my head and it actually <i>worked</i>.  That and the psycho that's been stalking me in my dreams just kind of increased the urge to draw someone all crazy or something.<br />
<br />
And no, I'm not psycho, I'm just a challenged (in)sane person.  My life's perfectly (ab)normal, just like everyone else's.  Each day may be the same since I've been having a horrendous chronic headache since Sunday and it's subsided at the moment, but they're all different too, and that's the good thing!  I always look forward to going to sleep, so I can pester the psycho that bums around there, despite their indecisiveness of how to present themselves.<br />
<br />
Pssh, my life rules.  My best friend is cooler than yours too <3.  And the closest thing to a great 'significant other' I've had the pleasure to know lives in my head.  Lonely?  Nope, just tired of the fake people in substance.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I really dislike this school.  I really dislike the majority of the people as well.  So going back isn't the best thing in the world.<br />
<br />
Braxton, I need info about those comp courses!  My mommeh said I could probably take them @_@.<br />
<br />
Which would mean no more of this school *o*<br />
<br />
I cut my hair again, but my mom needs to trim the back.  Yay.  Then, I'm gonna dye it again.  I'm aiming for blending neon/lime green to a rich electric blue then to dark purple...cause that's cool.  I need to consult my aunt about how to do it, or if she can do it for me.  Yay.<br />
<br />
And I feel really lazy...I think I'll commence the Bowie Faery series I randomly started X3.  Got a Zig down, and I have an idea for an Earthling and Duke one.  The others will come to me, I'm sure, just like the Ziggy one did.  And no, I'm not uploading that one, that collection isn't getting out so soon, not until it's complete.<br />
<br />
But I did post it in my LJ, hehe...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ To a new school XO!<br />
<br />
Oh yea, first, my foot's better, just got a slight limp that'll pass soon.  Like..tomorrow.<br />
<br />
Anywho.  So my mom's been making phone calls and whatnot, researching and all, and found the -perfect- school.<br />
<br />
Only problem is I have to be a resident of that county, and I know of 3 people who's addresses I can use: my two brothers' and my aunt's X3.<br />
<br />
And my mom was like, "Whoa, that school's REALLY good!  It's better than it was when your brother's went there!  If you really mean what you say, you can graduate this year (as in May of '07, a year sooner than I normally would)!"<br />
<br />
But she wants me to talk to my dad, who, while being a very understanding person, might get a bit peeved at me.  But if I tell him it's so I can get out of school sooner and move on, which I DO want to do, he should be all for it.<br />
<br />
At least I hope so.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Cause you fall from the top of the bleachers and severely sprain and bruise your right foot's fasial planter tendon and ALSO get to enjoy the wonders of nerve damage, resulting in bad circulation.<br />
<br />
So its a bit late as this all happened Monday.  But I'm just in such a rantful mood right now since I was forced to "try" school out with a cane.  Whoo, cane.  Fun till your arm and hand get sore.  Just a bit.  Just a bit much.<br />
<br />
Only till Wednesday unless the pain persists, then I get another week of limping fun.  My foot hurts really bad right now..I'm at school...and now it's shooting up my shin again.  Mrrr....I'm calling meh mom after 5th cause I wanna see Bailey <3.  And A.J. <3.  And then I wanna see the back of meh eyelids that will hopefully start playing some interesting movie, which we call a dream, that I can be pleased with >_>.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's like the only day that I can get away with being a bit crazier than usual, cause it'll be my birthday XD.<br />
<br />
Although I get away with that everyday >_>.  Then again I said "crazier" so...yea hehe.<br />
<br />
Also yay for Thursday!  Cause I'll see meh daddy >w<.  And again on Saturday X33.  Supposed to take Pan with me to see The Prestige Saturday afternoon...I swear I'm the only Bo-fanatic who hasn't seen it yet XD.  This is because Akai lives in a house where if her mother doesn't wanna drive her somewhere Akai gets stuck at home.  Obviously this happens often.  It's also the reason why I DON'T HAVE MY EFFING LICENSE YET *fume*.  But she'll prolly take me to the DMV to take the test tomorrow >_>.<br />
<br />
I have two tests to take at school tomorrow: Algebra II and Chemistry.  Algebra is gonna eat me for breakfast but I think I'll be able to handle the Chemistry one X3.<br />
<br />
Saturday is also the day where Akai will bring home...A SCANNER OMGFG FINALLY.  And all this other stuff cause my dad's taking me to get said stuff...so I'll be going Bo-crazy if anything XD.<br />
<br />
F'reals.  That Ziggy Stardust movie is gonna be MINE now *eyes store threateningly* and if someone's snagged it........I'll just order it and have it mailed here cause people can be cool like that XD *learning to be a not-so-aggressive person*<br />
<br />
Oh snap he's prolly gonna make me drive that monstrous thing of a truck too.....I love his truck, I really do, but I know how eye-opening it is to look in your rear-view mirror and see nothing but a grill XD.  Not that I get up behind people gawd, I mean like..when you're coming to a stop or starting from a stop..or waiting to turn...or you're going 10 miles below the speed limit and you're in front of me which isn't cool cause you'll just be annoying me....<br />
"OMG A COP MUST GO UNDER SPEED LIMIT OMGZ @_@"<br />
"AHHHH GAWD YOU...ARRGH *twitchy twitchy*"<br />
<br />
OH YEA!  YAY FOR FRIDAY!  NO SCHOOL!!  *dance of glee*<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Oi...um well let's see.  Nothing really to talk about O_o.  I'm just updating cause I haven't in what, 3 weeks?  Yeeaa...<br />
<br />
So Tuesday is Halloween.<br />
<br />
This means Akai stays home and watches movies and doesn't touch the comp.  Cause she's watching movies.  But I might get on....and watch movies at the same time...cause there's a chance someone will be on XD.<br />
<br />
Not likely, but there's always a chance.*<br />
<br />
So now I'm going to...order a pair of boots I found, drink coffee, eat brownies, and watch movies!<br />
<br />
<br />
*Whoever can guess where that's snagged from (though it's a bit altered, just a bit) gets a virtual cookie omg!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yes, finally!!  I'm gonna cover my room in tin foil!!  Silver Factory of sorts.  It makes me laugh when people say "I'm going to paint my room silver like the Factory <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />!" cause...he didn't PAINT it.  Billy Name used tin foil o-o.  You can TELL it's tin foil.  So.  Yea.<br />
<br />
Tin foil's cheaper too.  Doesn't smell either.  Easy to remove!  And it makes cool sounds when you scrunch it up X3.<br />
<br />
Sooo...when I finish I'll take piccies and go all "Miscellaneous" with'em.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Whooo joined the art club with Bailey today, and we've already got a spiffy assignment!  We're going to paint the foreign language hallway!<br />
<br />
Since this school only offers French and Spanish we're going to recreate some works of famous artists in our own style, but mold all the French ones together all the way to the Euro symbol, since it's shared by both, which then turns into all of the famous Spanish paintings together!  We picked out a good deal of the Spanish paintings today and we'll hopefully get to check out the French ones that Mr. Rodgers is supposed to bring.<br />
<br />
We're focusing on the raw culture, not what America has made them out to be.  The cool thing is, Mrs. Aller, the Spanish teacher, has been to Spain and is helping us with the originality of the country, and Mr. Rodgers is French XD.  He's a little creepy though...but hey, it's an ok kind of creepy!<br />
<br />
So we can't wait!  Mwuahaha...pictures will be taken when it's done, cause it might take a while. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hopefully tomorrow I can use Mrs. Lake's scanner for my webpage, but also email the scanned images to myself to save on my home comp to upload here, since I usually have to use a camera *growls* but my sister has it and she's been gone all weekend (which is FINE by me!).<br />
<br />
Went to a party last night.  'Tws teh bomb man!  Re-met David, but he didn't remember when we first met so we got to know each other and...all..sorts..of..things..happened..but we're going to the movies this weekend!  Going to go see Crank X3.<br />
<br />
He reminds me a bit of Tommy....aside from the uber thinness and paleness.  And sweetness.  And..yea.<br />
<br />
SO.<br />
<br />
Expect like...3 new doodles or something. WHOOO! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Mwuahaha...I felt odd today for some reason or another so when I got dressed I wanted to dress oddly >_>.  So...I had these bright lime green pants with my knee high buckle strap 'n' lace up boots along with a long sleeved net shirt with naught but a silk zip-up vest over it.  I had my pants tucked in my boots so I looked like a really warped militant persona or something...but everyone kept staring at me which is good, they're being exposed to freakier things by the second anyway.  I doubt my oddly (yet spiffy) bleached hair helped.<br />
<br />
Speaking of which...I'm cutting more off!  A lot more X3...>_> no really...it's gonna be shoooorrrrtttt...*dance*  And prolly uber bleach blonde/white XD.<br />
<br />
I'd get a picture but I HATE my picture taken so haha!<br />
<br />
I watched V For Vendetta AGAIN today X3.  I can't get bored with that movie, it's so deep and interesting @_@.  I had to continuously tell my mom to shut up -.-'''  What part of "DON'T FREAKING TALK WHEN I'M WATCHING A MOVIE!" do we not understand?!  Anywho, I ordered the novel and it'll be in on Monday ^^....which is also the day Hell on Earth begins so it'll be a nice thing to come home to.<br />
<br />
We had some really weird weather today.  It was bright and clear out then there was this really really loud BANG right over the house and then it turned green outside and the clouds started to spin and it's bad enough green skies mean tornados...then there was this really annoying roaring sound which was actually coming from a microburst (and if you don't know what that is it's a mini tornado) that was somewhere in the general vicinity.  Then it grew yellow outside, then foggy and unclear and more like an orange colour.  Then, it was gone.  Just like that.  Lasted about 10 minutes.  Mom was running around in a flit and I just remained in my comfy laying position on the couch watching V For Vendetta and eating chips and salsa X3.<br />
<br />
And I have started on numerous little sketches...and I need to finish them...or I'll just snap >_>.  And most of them are Bowie so..Yes, they need to be finished!  There's only one I can recall that's not Bowie and it isn't done.  But it'll be seen when it is.  I'm so glad I don't work around a set due date.  I only do that when I have to draw something for school, and I'll spend anywhere from 2 hours to staying up all night from the moment I get home to get those done and perfected to the best of my abilities/current mood's desire.  And I can't give myself one, because not only did I just make myself my own boss, which I already am, it also leaves me with the authority to change that date...and I do.  To me a drawing is due when it is done.  You can't rush those things -.-'''<br />
<br />
So that's the end of today's banter!  Expect a lot of rants later... ]]></description>

<br />
Ok, now for the good stuff.  I might be moving still!  YES!!!!!!!!  I can get outta here, go to a nicer school that doesn't start for another 2 weeks (mine's starting in like...6 days) and it would also give me a reason not to double my schedule to graduate a year early @_@....I really hope they decide to do this, cause when I told my mom today that I wanted to double my schedule "so I can get out of here quick, because I hate it" she was like, "Well, I'm glad you mentioned that because we found blah blah blah so we might still be moving!"<br />
<br />
*runs around as if on fire*<br />
<br />
Aaaaaaaaannnd.....my mom said she'd take me to town to get my movie *implodey action of joy*<br />
<br />
So like....now I gotta go run about all crazy-like, work on a drawing some more, and um....start a new one X3...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
My subject makes about as much sense a baby's babble when compared to this XD.<br />
<br />
But if I had to guess.  I'd say Bowie *snort*<br />
<br />
This is just to say, very plainly, yet enthusiastically:  Happy Birthday Andy!!!!  We can only wish you were still around <3<br />
<br />
The lovely man would've been 78 <3<br />

That should let you people know that I am so far from shallow I'm drowning.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's nice....when you're found I suppose.  Found in the sense that someone will actually respond to something, instead of just shrugging and saying something like, "Oh." or "Uh..I'm...sorry?"  Of course letting it out resulted in the sudden rush extremem paranoia, shaking like you're about to go into a seizure, and that feeling like you're choking because you don't want to scream.  I'll continue to lie through my teeth about it.  I don't need people worrying.  But those that know, they know because I trust them.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ ...until you STOP looking for it.  Because you'll be so intent on finding that something that you'll be staring at it for minutes on end and not see it, because you're looking for it too hard, almost like you're seeing past it.<br />
<br />
I just finished rereading "The Philosophy of Andy Warhol" again.  Yes, I reread books I like, so sue me >_>.  And I find I agree with a lot of his opinions, mainly this one.<br />
<br />
"People should fall in love with their eyes closed.  Just close your eyes.  Don't look."<br />
<br />
Blind people have it made.  The horrid thing that is "shallowness" is kicked out the door.  So they have that oppurtunity to find the most wonderful person ever, who by a non-blind person's standard could be the most unattractive person ever.  Here I'm going to rant:  Those of you, and those  critics, who dare call Andy Warhol unattractive must've been smacked in the back of the head so much your eyesight's blurred.  I'd go on but I don't think you'd want to read 50 or so paragraphs of my rant on such a subject X3<br />
<br />
Um.  I don't have issues, I have obsessions....healthy or not I love them all >_>...so...with me my obsessions come and you'll just have to except that ^^.  Love me, love my obsessions (though you don't have to be as obsessed about them XD).<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I'd like to point out that some of the random pointless babble featured in today's update was all due to a caffeine rush.<br />
<br />
I'd also like to mention that when I pulled a manual off the top of the desk while still sitting, I was unable to see the heavy metal candle holder sitting on it.  It promptly fell as i pulled the manual down and landed on my mouse.  My mouse is now all broke like X3.  It works but the scroll thingy's jammed somewhat so it takes more of a simple effort to scroll...and the left mouse button stuck out more...YAY I HAVE A REASON TO GET A NEW MOUSE MOM!<br />
<br />
AND YES.  LET'S FACE IT: PRINCE CHARMING IS LIVING WITH MR. RIGHT. ]]></description>
