Today, my mother gave me my birthday present. Before anyone mentions the fact that it's been over a month since my birthday, Let me say I noticed it to. I actually thought I'd already got my present from her. But it turns out I didn't.
But what I did get is now oficialy my dearest posetion. It's her wedding band. It's white gold, and has been etched on the outside and inside is the enscription 'Erin love mum 30-8-02. It is perhaps the single coolest thing I've ever been given. Now all I need to do is get my fathers weding band. It's white gold, like mum's, but his has already been eddited by an ex girlfriend of his. Which explains why I want it so bad - It is now a signet ring. It has on it my family's crest - The lion with the crown. How I would love to have it and our crest of arms, which currently hangs in the living room. And perhaps I will get that as an inheritence when I'm 50-something. But I have a feeling dad's ring would go to my brother Travis. Which makes pore sence, but my selfish nature won't let me like it :Þ
Speaking of presents, I should prbably scan in part of Olivias. At least then she'll get to see it.
I am an 'admirational stalker'. If I find the site of an artist I like and, through some quirk of fate, become obsessed with, I like to find all the places there sstuff is located and follow them around, yadda yadda. For a rather extended period of time, J. Axer was one of those people. Then one day his site disappeared, and I cried out 'No!!! oh gosh please no!" And kept checking back to his site in the hopes that it had somehow magically reappeared. No such luck, but what can you do. But all was not lost!
A friend of mine reads sonic comics (Yeah, she's cool.) And there was some sort of 'amature artist' competiton going on to get new pencilers. Anyway, while the details of his hire are beyond me, Axer made his way into Archie commics, and specifically the Sonic Comics. Which at least means that the world has not been left the porer for his absence! Well... Australia certainly hasn't anyway. But see, that's the surreal part about following an artist. One day you watch a movie or look at something, and it strikes a chord of familiarlarity. And you realise -Holy paprika! That's 'so and so'. It's a strange feeling.
