to update... the rest of my summer remained rather ridiculously happy, and the only reason I'm not so buoyant at the moment is because school is starting tomorrow and jeff (the cause the all the happiness) is far away. But I can still talk to him on aim a lot (well, a lot on weekends when he's not busy anyway) ]]> ~spottysalamander http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/894479/ http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/894479/ Mon, 30 Jun 2003 19:17:02 PDT
So, I went to the lake with Feathers this weekend, and it was great fun. We all stayed up until the wee hours of the morning on friday singing weird songs. On saturdaywe got the boys to go contra dancing, then went swimming in the lake after and observed the stars. The guys tried to find the one named Yagermeister.

I've been in a good mood ever since then. Possibly something to do with no pms and not being sick anymore

Last tuesday I went to boston and say Guster live!! It was awesome. Their drummer has the coolest setup ev4rrrr!! They played "(Nothing but) flowers" by the talking heads, and I bought their new album and got it signed and was happy. We went to the museum before the concert, and the aquarium. I took photos of the penguins, so maybe I can post some of those... I love penguins...
After the concert we were hanging out by the holocaust memorial, and this old crazy alcoholic guy came up and was harassing us. he was talking ot us for a really long time and wouldn't go away, even after we gave him money. And then he hugged us... *shivers* next time I go to a city I need to take some boys along to defend me. Any volunteers? ]]> ~spottysalamander http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/762729/ http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/762729/ Mon, 26 May 2003 16:48:21 PDT [link] ! she's new and a great artist ]]> ~spottysalamander http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/589479/ http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/589479/ Thu, 03 Apr 2003 05:38:27 PST la la la la la la

The team we played today was really nasty. However, they weren't following the rules for checking and the like, and they did illegal stuff right in front of the refs, so that was okay because they got called on that. Wheee, no one cares tho...

by Lord Tennyson

XXVI

I envy not in any moods
The captive void of noble rage,
The linnet born within the cage,
That never knew the summer woods:

I envy not the beast that takes
His licence in the field of time,
Unfetter'd by the sense of crime,
To whom a conscience never wakes;

Nor, what may count itself as blest,
The heart that never plighted throth
But stagnates in the weeds of sloth;
Nor any want-begotten rest.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all. ]]> ~spottysalamander http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/93545/ http://spottysalamander.deviantart.com/journal/93545/ Sun, 24 Mar 2002 16:01:45 PST

I've been trying some airbrushing, the time I should have spent studying for finals was mostly taken up with it. It's frustrating, but fun. There are so many people who are so good at airbrushing here!!!

I know of their plans. I know their techniques.
My parents are outer space alien freaks!

They landed on Earth is spaceships humongous.
Posing as grownups, they now walk among us.
My parents deny this, but I know the truth.
They're here to enslave me and spoil my youth.

Early each morning, as the sun rises,
Mom and dad put on their Earthling disguises.
I knew right away their masks weren't legit.
Their faces are lined -- they sag and don't fit.

The Earth's gravity makes them sluggish and slow.
They say not to run, wherever I go.
They live by the clock. They're slaves to routines.
They work the year 'round. They're almost machines.

They deny that TV and fried food have much worth.
They cannot be human. They're not of this Earth.
I cannot escape their alien gaze,
And they're warping my mind with their alien ways.
For sinister plots, this one is a gem.
They're bringing me up to turn me into them!!!
