We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses. - C. G. Jung

[rant] If there’s one thing that makes me mad, it’s ignorant people. If someone doesn’t like or agree with something, is it too much to ask for them to just leave it alone? Why do people feel the need to try and shove their views on other people? Does it make them feel good to be close-minded? Whatever their reason, it really, really, makes me angry!!! And it’s all a load of BS. Some people just really need to grow up. [/rant]

I know that probably confused everyone, but it felt good. I’ll defend my girls no matter what site it is.

In other news: I moved up to number one spot in myO’s top rated artist! w00t! Yeah, that’ll probably last a whole day or two. But hey, it’s fun while it lasts anyway!

And… that’s about it. Have a good day everyone!

EDIT: For those of you wondering... it would seem photobucket is down for a little while, and that's why you can't see the graphics on the page. Never fear, they usually don't stay down for long.

One thing you can't recycle is wasted time

This is gonna be another short post. Just letting everyone know that there are two new Bakura pics up. Your everyday psycho and one of him as the thief king from the memory world arc. I'd appreciate any thoughts you had on them.

No pic tonight cause photobucket is being a pain. Take care everyone!

Poetry is an orphan of silence. The words never quite equal the experience behind them. -Charles Simic

Hey everyone! Sorry for not making to everyone's sites today. I was on earlier and myO was down for like hours. So... yeah.

I'm working on two Bakura pics right now. One is almost finished and should be up shortly. Its the extremely bishified Bakura one. Just cause he looks so purdy that way.

Its short, I know, but that's about all. So I'll leave ya with some more Bakura goodness!

EDIT: Bakura is now up!

I apologize for not getting to everyone’s sites today. Heh, and I didn’t finish my pic either; I was working on it and then got all uninspired. Meh. I’ve had a hard time making myself work on any art lately. It’s like a slump or something. I guess it’ll pass.

I did get to see Hero today though! Oh, it’s such a gorgeous movie, I loved it!! Very artistic. SG was right, it’s an artistic movie first and for most. And I loved the use of the color schemes through the different parts. The actual story part of it wasn’t what I expected it to be, but that’s not a bad thing. It was so sad near the end though. ;_; But I definitely recommend this movie.

Thanks for chatting last night Maris! Heh, I apologize for being such a boring person though.

Hmm, I think that’s about it. Have a good Sunday everyone!!

Haku always makes me happy. *refrains from the automatic squeal reaction*

I love Hinata! Heh, like you couldn’t tell. Well, not much happened today. I’m just getting ready to start on a Kurama pic. He is a hottie. Although I haven’t seen that much of the series, so I’m pretty lost when I watch it. Just like Wolf’s Rain. I always forget to watch those. o_O Wow, I’m tired, but for once I’m in the mood to draw.

Oh, I’m going to see Hero tomorrow. I can’t wait! Jet Li rocks my socks. Heh, like you really wanted to know that.

THAT welcomes Jeffrey Toro!!

All life is an experiment. –Ralph Waldo Emerson

Well everyone, not much to say today. Thanks again for everyone’s support. ^__^ It would appear all is calm around myO for the present time. I’m going to try and get some more art up this weekend. I feel in the mood to draw. Heh, isn’t that a change. Thank you for the pic SesshTaisho! I loved it! And well really, that’s all I gotta say right now, so instead of rambling, a quote!

One of my favorite lines from Trigun, this is for you Evil, since we were talking about the series earlier.

Dominique: "If I was so inclined, I could of killed you three times by now."
<
B>Vash: "Yeah well...if I was so inclined I could of groped you 5 times during this conversation!!"

--------------------

And a funny pic!

I apologize for the length of this post ahead of time

I know this is going to be kinda long, and probably a little harsh, but well some times things need to be said.

I guess you can tell that since I bothered to change my theme, I’m gonna stay at myO. *sighs* I’m still very frustrated. But after much talking to Someguy last night (who always manages to calm me down) and a very sweet PM from a friend, I am much calmer about it now. Sahkiryce, thank you for that, your nice words couldn’t have come at a more helpful time. And then I came online today, and wow, to read all the nice comments and PM’s from everyone asking me to stay was amazing. I can’t thank everyone enough. *group hugs everyone* I guess it just helped to remind me of why I’ve stayed at myO for so long in the first place… because of all the wonderful people here. ^_^

Although, some things are going to change.

PM’s - I will no longer accept PM’s from people who are not on my friends list. Those that are on my list, I trust not to spam, flame, or push me. To everyone else, sorry, but it’s gotten way past my tolerance level and I am tired of jerk offs harassing me through that feature. For those of you wanting to request things made for you, I will still accept those requests, but sign it to the guest book or leave me a comment. That is what the comment section is for after all.

Emails – I will continue to keep my email address up for the present time. But unless I know who you are already from previous emailing, or you write that it’s a request or that you are in need of help in the subject, its going in the junk folder. Without a second look, no questions asked. I refuse to be hassled through my own email anymore either.

The shout box – That thing is impossible to regulate. Although I enjoy watching you guys chat in it and make silly remarks, it’s quite the target for cowardly flamers who are too gutless to leave their name. If it continues to be targeted, it’s coming down and all comments will have to be left in the comment section.

And now onto the spammers and flamers. Just as I refuse to be hassled by these people, I will not stand by quietly and watch any of my friends be pestered either. For those of you who like to make it a habit of targeting Milkycat, SesshTaisho, TAG, or anyone else, they do not stand alone. You will have to deal with me also. Being nice does not mean I cannot be aggressive when I'm pissed off or that I’ll allow myself to be a pushover. I am sick and tired of the unnecessary flaming, bickering, and finger pointing that goes on here. And if I catch you doing it to me or my friends, I’m going to call you on it. Be forewarned.

*takes a deep breath* There, I have said my peace about all this. If it seems a bit harsh sounding, I apologize to my friends reading it, but to everyone else… I could give a rat’s ass, deal with it.

That said, I’d like to thank everyone again for their supportive words yesterday and I apologize about the tone of this post. But like I said at the beginning, some things needed to be said.

People only see what they are prepared to see. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

I think I’ve about had it.

I really do believe spammers and cruel people come in packs. In the past two weeks alone, I’ve dealt with a persistent spammer at my page, received hateful PM’s from a flamer I very politely told to back off a friend, been hounded by someone, who for some reason you’d think I’m like their best friend or something (even though I don’t know this person at all!), and dealt with my share of pushy people. And lets not forget the huge misunderstanding that took place between two of THAT’s members today because others simply don’t think of consequences before they post something the public will see.

That said, Milky mi dear, I don’t blame you at all, and I meant what I said that I’d back you up on anything. And who knows, maybe I just overstepped my bounds there by saying that. But meh. Flame me for my opinion, I hardly care anymore.

Sometimes being the calm and nice one has its drawbacks. -_-

When did myO become so freakin’ complicated?

It would seem the more well known I become here, the worse it all gets. They all find me at some point or another and I don’t know why. And I’m not talking about all of you reading this, those who comment here on a regular bases, or the people who request buttons, banner, and avatars. You guys are all wonderful and I love ya for it.

My point with this whole rant? I’m tired of these jerk off people who think I will stand to be pushed around or let my friends be harassed either. And yes, that was an uncharacteristic display of rudeness from me. Go ahead, flame me, it’s not like it could get any worse. But I am frustrated, and VERY tired of it right now. And frankly deciding whether I want to be or am needed here around myO at all.

Looks like I have a decision to make.

Heh, not only do I lose a guest book entry or two per day, now I am losing comments on my art as well. o_O I guess they didn’t mean the nice comment they left apparently. And no, comments and signatures don’t get erased when someone deletes their site. The name just disappears and a general pic comes up. In the almost a year I’ve been at Otaku this has never happened until recently.

Well, it turns out that I couldn’t give blood after all. Same thing as last time, my iron was too low. Which it’s not low for a girl really, just to low to give blood. How troublesome. I think what it is, is that I drink to much ice tea lately and tea makes you not absorb iron very well. But I love tea! BOO. I did go and work out today instead though! Man, I’m going to be sore in the morning, I can feel it!

Well, that’s about it for me. I hope everyone’s Monday wasn’t so bad, as Monday’s go. Have a good day!

Yeah, I’m posting a lot later than I normally do. But hey, I’m here finally! I don't know, I may start posting in the evenings like this.

Nothing really exciting to report anyway. Oh, I am going to give blood today, that’s about it. Hopefully I can give this time, last time my iron was too low. All that waiting for nothing, It was annoying. And especially since I’ve never been or had problems with being anemic before. Things like that always manage to catch you at the wrong times I guess. I’ve got to get going here in a bit if I want to get there at the start (far less people).

So, I’ll leave you with a cute pic. Anyone want a soot ball? They’re hard workers!



And a poem a found last night while thinking of something:

Edna St. Vincent Millay - I Shall Forget You Presently

I SHALL forget you presently, my dear,
So make the most of this, your little day,
Your little month, your little half a year,
Ere I forget, or die, or move away,
And we are done forever; by and by
I shall forget you, as I said, but now,
If you entreat me with your loveliest lie
I will protest you with my favorite vow.
I would indeed that love were longer-lived,
And vows were not so brittle as they are,
But so it is, and nature has contrived
To struggle on without a break thus far,?
Whether or not we find what we are seeking
Is idle, biologically speaking.
