Yes, you read it right, mah papahs ahh duuun.

Translated into normal speak, that means all my big projects are finished and all I have now are my two finals.

Classes are done on tuesday, so you'll either see more or less or no difference in my time here, mostly as I might just increase my time when I'm chillin' with the Lady.

Speaking of the Lady, thigs are going SUPER FANTASTIC on that front. She and I will be ring shopping next tuesday (gleeee!) and I'll finally be putting a ring on Lay-Away for her. I should be proposing to her sometime early next year, so keep an eye out here to see exactly when I will be.

In terms of my poetry, I've been putting up some stuff here and there as I am sure you have noticed. I would REALLY like someone to give me a good critique on my poetry, just as I really need the constructive criticism to help to further develope it into something more marketable.

Anyways, ciao for now!

Seeing as I only have two classes, however, it isn't -that- bad. Only two big papers i need to write, so I should be fine. I do need to double check when my tests are, mind you.

Well, this weekend, the Lady and I made us some cookies. By which I mean she made them and I helped with the dishes. I can't bake worth snot. But I can cook! Oh can I. Having some lentil stew right now, actually, and let me tell you, it is somethin' else.

I also made a fresh batch of vegetable stock last night which is all frozen up and await all the wonderful things I shall make it into. I can usually get about two soups/stews out of a batch, makes for some good eatin'. Perfect for my vegetarian diet.

I know, I've already failed at my promise to write four pieces a week. But it's okay, I've been writing here and there, as I'm sure you've seen. It's just hard to write when a) you have no physical motivation, and b) you have important things to worry about, like work, and school.

Anyways, in the immortal words of Jason Alexander/Jewperman, "Up, up, and Oi-Vay!"

I'm at work right now, and I'm supposed to be working on a paper about Henry Alline and Jacob Bailey.. blargh. But I'll get to that later.

So!

Kay...

Well...

Oh! Oh! So my live DND campaign is drawing to a close. I promise you, I'll try and blog the next one. That'd be fun, wouldn't it? A weekly blog... all about a D&D game. Could be neat, ya never know!!!

I might.

I might also not, because hell I have been up to my neck, I swear. I don't have time to RP online any more. Been too busy doing like... real life stuff. Like... I dunno. Hangin' out with joel. Chillin' with my sister. Making money. Working. Getting an education. Having a family and all that. It's been pure madness, man. I dunno...

I swear, it's not as sick as it sounds >_>

As you've noticed, I've been kinda creatively 'dry' lately and that's causing problems for my poetry and my novel, so I'm gonna be putting some pieces up. Some of them I like, but others I might start sticking into that new 'journal poetry' category, just because they suck so much.

So, I now ask a question: What do YOU do to get your creative gears oiled?

Hey hey everyone.

I know, I know, it has been a very very long time since I've posted anything that's actually NEWS worthy, but I have some neeeews that I am very excited about!

As you know, I was involved in a project entitled "How I shot my Brother and Other Short Stories" and even though my contribution was a poem, not a short story, I am excited none the less. The book launch has been set for June 20th, so not this Saturday but the next! Hooray!

[link] is the website with more information on the book! (I'm also the featured writer this time around!)

More big news, however!

My good friend Erika and I are planning on starting a new project. A conversation-styled Journal featuring our two artistic loves, poetry and photography. The works major theme will be country and city, with myself representing country and she representing the city. We're still laying the foundations for it, but I am looking very forward to working on it. Keep tuned in for more updates as time goes by.

Today is my last day of classes for the summer! That's also very exciting to me, so I am really looking forward to chilling and working part-time all summer. Should be good!

Alright, I think that's everything for now. Have a great one, guys!

This is Gord Downey starring in a short film based on the Al Purdy poem "At the Quinte Hotel." Since I love Gord Downey and Al Purdy to pieces, I just had to share it with you folks.

Things are going well, on my side. I'm going to be published in an anthology entitled How I Shot My Brother and Other Short Stories so keep your eyes open for that, as I'll probably be putting up a site to be selling copies of it from.

Have a great day!

I felt a need to edit this.

I want to share this poem with you.

"Tears, Idle Tears"
Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean,
Tears from the depth of some divine despair
Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes,
In looking on the happy Autumn-fields,
And thinking of the days that are no more.

Fresh as the first beam glittering on a sail,
That brings our friends up from the underworld,
Sad as the last which reddens over one
That sinks with all we love below the verge;
So sad, so fresh, the days that are no more.

Ah, sad and strange as in dark summer dawns
The earliest pipe of half-awakened birds
To dying ears, when unto dying eyes
The casement slowly grows a glimmering square;
So sad, so strange, the days that are no more.

Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in Life, the days that are no more.

By: Alfred Lord Tennyson, from "The Princess: A Medley" published 1847

ÂIt is not about real woe, it is about the yearning that young people seem to experience from that which seems to have passed away from them forever.Â --Tennyson, on Tears, Idle Tears.

Still no word on the poems, but I'm not worried. It's not even been a month yet, and they were calling for four!

You may notice that a few of my poems have been taken down, including a couple very recent ones.

The reason for this is, I have sent them off for publication in a magazine. If they are not accepted, they will go back up. If they are, I will discuss with the editor whether or not I am permitted to put them back up.

I am doing this to avoid any legal issues. I apologize if you liked them. If you want a read-only digital copy of one, message me and i will send it to you.

Also, this one I ask in general: Why does DA let you classify as Villanelle, Sestina, or Sonnet, but not, say, Terza Rima, or Hymnal? If you're going to include one fixed poetic form, be consistent. Include them all.

It's obvious that after a year and some, the spark is gone that we once had, so no, I don't think we're ready to be back together yet, if we ever will be. But, really, it was more like meeting an old friend after not seeing them for a year. I actually felt more comfortable this time around than I think I ever have felt with her before. I didn't feel pressured to be anyone or anything that I wasn't, and that alone made me happy.

Or =nicole1725.

This is, of course, in exchange for her featuring me at some randomn date in the future. It may not happen, but here's hoping.

Because I'm that kinda guy, each picture will come with a post as to why I chose it.

I chose this, because this is how I discovered

. In one of my randomn character inspiration searches I often go on, i discovered this picture. While there is a small hint of Anime influence, it is distinctly more realistic than most kitty-girl pictures. The vibrant use of purples and blues, drew me in.

This was just a cute picture. I love the sun effects coming through the clouds. Beautiful.

I love this picture. Just looking at it, it feels like it's moving. I love the bright colours. It feels like a cross between a newt and a fish!

This collab between her and

I liked because of simply how goofy the expression on the bats face is!

While I'm not generally a big fan of more anime style things, again i'm drawn to her Anthromorphs because of their more-realistic style than is normally seen. Plus I love wolves.

I don't know what she's saying. I love the background. It looks bizarre and freaky, and I love bizarre and freaky. I also love dragons, which brings me too...

This! A bizarre, freaky dragon! The versatility of her abilites amazes me, and I am in love with this picture.

I'm sure she'll hate me for featuring this, judging by her comments, but I like it. It's very macabre. I like macabre.

Well, that's all for this feature, I hope you all enjoyed it. Have a great day!

Recipe: Take a taco shell, and butter it on one side. On the other side, put cheese, salsa, cooked-and-sliced chicken breast, and whatever else sounds good. Now, fold it in half. Using a panini press on "High" cook for a few minutes, until the sides are lightly toasted and the cheese has melted. Slice into quarters, and enjoy! ]]> *Wandio Bad News http://Wandio.deviantart.com/journal/19035377/ http://Wandio.deviantart.com/journal/19035377/ Wed, 25 Jun 2008 09:11:56 PDT
Her heart stopped for two minutes before being resuscitated, but she has all her memory and she's doing very well right now. They're saying she should be let out by friday.

But that aside, I finished at Michaels today. As of now, I am no longer a custom framer. I am merely a Costumed Historical Midway Attendant at Fort Edmonton. Awesome am I.

I also started me bass lessons (hoorah!) and am lovin' it. Dabah da da da.

I had a really, really messed up horror-movie dream last night. It scared the willies outta me. I got attacked by a bird-statue-thingy that ate my back bone.

You may see some PROSE *EGADS* from me about it.

Firstly: The other day, I was working the Ferris Wheel at Fort Edmonton, and failed to give Amanda an even load. As punishment, she sent me up to balance it.

I'm afraid of heights. Fun! That was my second trip up that day, earlier I went up because a little six year old girl wanted to go at the same time as her sister, but her dad could only take one, so i offered to go up and he said yes.

Well, today, I also went up twice, again. First time, it's because Sara, from the 20s street, gave me puppy dog eyes and said she'd go up with me. i couldn't say no! >.< Second time, I went up with Patty, the woman in charge of Education Programs, because it was the easiest way to get Patty alone to let her know I was interested in applying for education programs so I could quit my other job instead of getting fired, which if I can't get myself more 'awake' there, might just happen.

Anyways, first time i come down, I discover I suddenly have the nickname "Cuddles". Apparently, for no other reason than they want to call me "Cuddles". Yech.

Either way, I do love my job at Fort Edmonton! It's much more fun than picture-framing.

Alright folks. I'll just fess up. I had an awesome picture-taking opportunity to take lots of awesome pictures

And I forgot my camera, along with a few other vitals. But that's okay.

I've been in a gloriously depressed mood lately, feeling incredibly lonely, and i have yet another bus ride coming up. Hopefuly that will inspire me to write you guys stuff.

And while I'm at it: tetra update.

Bought a sucker fish, it died. Old penguin died, and it looks like the Blue Neon's life is drawing to a close. The red eyes are healthy as always, those brutes.

Cleaned the tank out, after the algae-eater died. So hopefuly things will be in a (relatively) healthy state when I get back.

that's all for now folks.
