potluck

sickness 2/20/2009

yesterday I woke up feeling sick. yes, AGAIN. I've come to the conclusion that my body is working against me. I have waged war with it by means of excessive hot drinks, soup, and vitamins.

I fell in love again with the Smiths' song "How soon is now"
I learned how to play The Smiths' "Bigmouth strikes again" by means of some online tab, and an incredibly goofy looking makeshift capo. (pencil and hair thingies)

I came up with a kangaroo character, to be posted when I'm done making it in Illustrator.

I watched Secret Smile, a made for TV movie with the chick from Shawn of the Dead and David Tennant. Kaile laughed at me a lot 'cuz I kept freaking out. (mostly yelling at the TV or cringing at how creepy DT was)

I ABSOLUTELY love the sword in the stone movie. I'm watching it now and remembering all my favorite moments.
Girl Squirrel - scene from the Sword in the Stone


"This is Archimedes; a highly educated owl."

"My magic is mainly used for educational purposes."

and speaking of education...

Today I went to class and all I could think about was drawing something else. I just wanted to spend all day making up characters.

music.

ok, so just to catch up...

on thursday and Friday i worked very diligently.
I had a few beers and some fantastic onion rings with one of my best friends Anthony.
Also, i found some REALLY SWEET bands on last.fm

first and foremost...the band Naughty Zombies(http://www.last.fm/music/Naughty+Zombies)
see images above.

also, another good band The Vanishing, who can also be found on Last.fm

I also watched a really cute movie with a horrible ending called Nim's Island with my best friends Kaile and Lily. retarded. luckily, we were drinking.

and for V-Day, my boyfriend Chadd and I went to a school party and played Rock Band for a bit, then we went to see Coraline. I really really liked it.


thanks for taking me lovey:)

oh my, so I made that today. i'm soooooo proud:) her name is fauna and she's on an adventure to show you the creatures that live on our planet. She went to the zoo. Anyways...Today I nerded out and watched 2 doctor who episodes and laughed a lot at the ridiculousness of it. Also, I had class from 9:30 AM to 9PM with one 2 hour break in between, with witch I worked on homework and watched Dr. Who. Now I'm going over to my friends' (Kaile and Lily) house to watch movies and drink. I Hope whoever's looking at this thing enjoys my work, 'cuz they're getting a good dose of it.

some sketchbook scans

I drew that today. I've got no idea where that came from but it makes me laugh.
and here's some stuff about me that I just put on facebook.

1. I have a new obsession. He's called David Tennant. Which apparently in my taste of guys is coming from left field.

2. I really like making shit.

3. I'm a HORRIBLE procrastinator and do things in order of most enjoyable to least enjoyable.

4. I'm absurdly sentimental, though I try not to be sometimes.

5. I really like the way Music makes me feel about myself.

6. I very badly want to be in a post-punk or bratty punk band.

7. Most of the people that I want to be like are boys.

8. I wish i could scream like Johnny Whitney.

9. A lot of people say that I'm a living Cartoon Character. I take this as the highest form of flattery.

10. I wish my characters could come to life so I could hang out with them.

11. I want to name my future child(if it's a boy) Ichabod so I can call him Icky. (Thank you Sleepy Hollow)

13. I really really like the movie Lawn Dogs.

14. I enjoy mindless laborious tasks. For the most part.

15. I have worked as: a cleaning lady, a sub-maker, skateboard assembler(haha), gift-wrapper, graphic designer at a Natural History Museum, henna artist(don't even ask), soda jerk, scientific illustrator also at a Natural History Museum, and prob more random shit.

16. I am running out of things to say.

18. I watch Doctor Who to watch David Tennant.

19. My fav. TV show is Flight of the Conchords.

21. I CANT STAND when people say itch instead of scratch.

22. Itch is a sensation.

23. Scratch is a verb.

24. Get it straight.

25. The End.
