Bwa Ha Ha and stuff

Hooray Hooray, I made a friend who likes to do the same things we do, isn't a boozehound, likes dogs, and is only a block away from my house!

*happy dance*

Oh guys, I did a terrible horrible thing today..
I accidentally turned poor Mortimer into a poodle.. -sigh- poor lil' guy.
I had the clippers out earlier today to do his face and feet, as he's sliding around the floor now, and had to stop about midway because they were overheating.
I come into the 'puter room, and become immursed in my Bioshock medical pavillion boss battle, and awhile later get up to go to the bathroom,

right now I'm sitting here watching old pro bowling tourneys on youtube.. been looking to get myself a nice new ball, (a real one this time, not plastic ya' know.) and accessories.. bowling shoes, bag, giant see-saw (those shammy things for the balls), bag, wrist brace, the whole shebang!

I am miffed with the west coast though. Our sports stores don't carry bowling stuff!! How crazy is that? I've been told that a few of the bowling alleys in sacramento carry balls and etc, but good lord that's going to be pricey. alleys charge quite a bit more for items than msrp.
I may have to end up breaking down and ordering them off of bowlingball.com

here's the compare list I've got up there.. I really like Hammer's Cherry Vibe (dirty people lol)




but yea, anyways thats my day..

see ya'all later!
-------------------------------------

--by the way, I accidentally left this up all night, so now it's Sunday the 30th, and Joe and I are heading off to Guitar Center to get some kindof distortion box for his violin (and my future guitar, he says) :grin:

-bye!

Hey everybody! Happy New Year and all that Jazz

Just a thank-you journal :thanks:

Thank you thank you mom & dad for the tom tom!! WE LOVE THAT THING!! Haven't tried the dvd player yet, it's awesome too though. and mom, I can't wait to try out that color-adjuster thing for my screens.. It will make my life oh so much easier..

Thanks to Chrisann for the photo album of Joe's baby pictures, and the lovely Ulu knife and to my sis-in-law Elizabeth for making me all of those gorgeous earrings! -and Mortimer loves the toys you guys got him!

and thanks to my hubby for the two Jim Shore Disney Traditions figurines


and

new The ATI Radeon™ HD 2400 video card, new books, and BioShock!!!



AGHH! I love this game.. Socreepy, too!

I may have to do some fanart of it one day.. . I dunno though.. we'll see.



Current Projects

Right now, I'm working on...

1) Tiffany: 30% initial sketches and starting painting of 1 character
another digital poster for a yaoi FMA picture, and a couple prints of my Bowie painting

2) Stephanie: 20% doing a digital background, still need payment to buy paint
a giant acrylic painting on 9 smaller canvases.. it will be a romantic Paris night portrait

3) Ducky in the rain for children's illustration.. 98% need to scan it in now.

4) coloring ''million shades of grey" by overweightcat for fun.. painter keeps closing out in the middle of doing it though, so I don't know what's up..



Very Merry Christmas and
A Happy New Year

not feeling so hot

I really haven't been able to draw or paint since the accident, it kinda sent me into shock.. I'm a little behind on Tiff's commission. The whole ordeal threw me into a terrible cold, been puking my guts out, ect ect.. (I'm so sure you wanted to hear that..) just generally a teeny bit stressed out..
doesn't help that i don't have a single friend out here, -other than a really nice gal in Joe's squadron, but she is of course at work all the time.. -_-
and my family's all 3000 miles away.. none of my friends back home really seem to care about me anymore.. not that I blame them.. I understand lots of people have trouble with long-distance relationships.. its so easy to fall out of touch.. It feels like we've got nothing in common anymore whenever I talk to someone..
and we're stationed out in the middle of nowhere, which doesn't help.
OIY! I can't wait until we're done with the military. .
They made the poor man come into work today! good freaking grief!

I'm just so frustrated today with the way things work.. I'd go into detail, but its probably not a good idea.

bye for now.. sorry my journals always seem so complain-y.

and heres our photos

in case anyone wanted to know where I've been

My poor Joe..
-warning semi-gory details-
He was hit by a car early this weekend.. didn't obviously break any bones, we've got to get followup x-rays done.but he crushed his leg pretty badly.. He's ok, and he's home right now, in a wheelchair.. we spent almost 12 hours in the ER though.. he was starting to get Compartment syndrome, -when the swelling is so severe that the veins are crushed, and circulation for the entire body stops.. it would have killed him, or they would've had to amputate his leg if the ambulance had arrived 2 minutes later..

So, they stuck giant needles all the way through his leg, and partially cut it open to release the pressure. he had to be on oxygen..

NOT FUN. good thing is that Tri-Care is covering it all.. one less thing to worry about

anyways, just keep us in your thoughts..

thanks, kat

ah, nostalgia

Hey all..
Today we're going to finally go out sledding, or at least pinecone gathering... Taking Morty of course :)

Right now, I'm looking up some of stephen king's tales from the darkside tv show adaptations..
I've only read the 2nd collection of stories though, so I've got to be careful which ones I watch. I don't want to spoil myself, lol.

Right now I'm watching "The Moving Finger.." man, that would creep me out..
It's kinda comical to see it played out though.. what I imagined was alot scarier when reading the book..
here's part one & two.. here's some more episodes

Playing with the pup -december-

Hey all!
Just wanted to share some photos with you of Mortimer, playing in the front yard with Joe :)
