Floral Fishnet Socks
They are the awesome. No doubt about it. I will now try to wear them wherever I can. Except not tomorrow, because I want to wear my tartan and lace. 'Cause it's cute, and I've accepted that being cute is best, even for someone as uncute as me ::nodnod::

Right, Christmas is over. Got a watch and some PJ's and some socks (all purple) and some money (all yellow) and some shoes and a subscription and some CD's and miles of just plain cool stuff. Christmas this year was pretty sweet. I liked it anyway. Boxing day wasn't too bad, but I was starting to miss my boy terribly, and miss being in the city. Ish. Anyway, I was itching to come back by monday. Dad lives so far away! I mean, it's close to everyone else. It's just not close to me.

I'll do a bit more updating before I move on to the deep and meaningful, k? K. Went in yesterday and today to have my photos taken. I was with Ri-Chan yesterday, and damn it was so much fun! Today I went in with Zoe, and my hair and eyes are much cooler today. I'm wondering if I can just not sleep tonight so I can keep the hair until tomorrow, but I don't think I'd make it to New Year without sleeping. Pitty though. I loves it so ^_^ I can't wait to see the results, but I know I'm gonna want to buy studd, and I just don't have the money for it T_T I'll do what I can though. Think I crashed the computer. May post this and see if I can salvage something. Be back later, ja? Ja babies.

I'm a ramblin kinda dude.
Washi Rage at Uni. Will mention it no more.

I have cool hair! I need a photo of it before I lose it ^_^ I love it sooooo!

I smell like vanilla blueberry ^_^

Okay, I don't actually have anything new to say.

I have a desire to draw. But I also have stuff to do - another commission to finish and a comic to work on that needs more love. So maybe later, I'll permit myself to draw what I want for a while. I look forwards to that, especially if I go so far as to permit myself to finish it. I'd like to do some more CG stuff. Yes, I know this jounal has become a den of nothing but me bitching about stuff and saying what I'm drawing. That is the sum of my existence. Without involving other people, anyway. And I like to avoid that.

I need to produce! Bah.

Aaaanyway ^^;

Have I babbled lately about how awesome dogs are? I love canines ^_^ Doggiedoggiedoggie

We're electrocuting various people. yay!

Almost worked my way through stuff. Although, as always, there's a tone I'm sure I've forgotten. I'll get around to it, I guess.

http://www.madman.com.au/tism/bunny/ Go here for bunnies and TISM!! Seriously!! And that's that done.

Alright, I'll post before it vanishes and I get even more pissed.

Went to the comics get together this weekend. Damn it was good - there were a lot of people there, and many of them bought their portfolio ^_^! I had so much stuff to look at. And one of the pro's there was so nice to me O_O It's not often that someone seems as enthusiastic about my work as I am, and I assure you that those who are are cherished dearly by me. I'm so susseptable though, it was such an enormous boost ^_^ And apart from a few minor crashes, I've been kept pretty boosted all week.

It was suggested that I should try some larger pieces. Which lends more weight to actually getting an a3 Bran picture done. And, if I can think of something good enough, using some more of my large sheets. I have large surfaces, I just rarely have anything I think is worth doing on them. And at some stage I have to cut up my board into manageable chunks ^^; At the moment the size is 'fits under the bed, but not onto the table'. I have it against the day I have a major project I wish to do. an urge which comes and goes, and is normally dispissed due to being stupid.

Speaking of ideas, I've hada few in my brain recently. I've been working on Aspen for a bit (need to get a wriggle on, do some more today and stuff) and I've also had some other ideas for things that I would like to comicafy. The first is still Ghosts of Crows, which will likely not be dealt with at all untill I've finished Aspen. at which point I'll likely go back to allowing myself to play with it and working on the details. Like The Body Electric, it's coming together piece by piece. Unlike tBE, I'm ctually recording the pieces as they come, so I have a scene list of ideas that help me complete the picture of the story. The main problem will be trying to make it something diferent and give it some merrit. And Sierra is awesome - she started out as a likely bit player, and has become a major force in the world. Of course, I'm likely the only person who'll like her -_- Anyway, moving on - There are also two things that I'd like to see, and would probably have to be the one to do them if I wanted to. First, a Yu-Gi-Oh doujin based off of the story of the Golden Headed Fish is one. That's one of my favorite fairy tales, and It'd just transfer over so well! Of course, I'm not sure I could ever do it, but it's an idea I hold close. Seccond, an adaption of the old story of Lobo. This one is more likely to exist somewhere out there. If it could be done with the wolves even more awesome, but I'd probably alter them to be human myself. Cause I'm cheap and lazy. I loved that story when I was young - very very much ^_^

Other things I've been thinking of include my promise to run a mage-assylum game for Ledi and anyone else who can put up with me. ben tryling out the character generation, and I think I've got something worked out. Won't know for sure untill I throw some real players into it, of course. But this depends on Ledi and her desire to play and be a part of it, since the idea is hers. If you're wonderinf why I agreed to run it, it's because I've always felt infinitely more comfortable in the role of story teller then player - it's what I've donce since I was 10, I tell the story. I'm just not terribly confident about it when I'm such an inexperienced, and admittedly somewhat stupid, story teller, and everyone I know is a very experienced player. I don't think I could measure up. Which leads on to the other idea - which has been thinking about how a Naruto game could be run through the Exalted system. Both Ri-Chan and I have been thinking about the mechanics, but I've found myself aslo thinking about the story posibilities and such. How to make this work, the culture, even some NPC concepts. 'S interesting and fun.

And there's my brain at this moment. I might go reclaim my boy and watch some stuff with him.
