Hello my precioussesss! I hope you are all doing fine and dandy. I’ve been having sleeping problems lately so I took an Ambien sleeping pill last night…to, well…help me sleep, duh, and I took it around 10:30 pm and was hoping it would make me sleepy by at least 11:30 pm so I could wake up refreshed for work. Well, 1 am rolls around and I’m still not tired and was wondering why it wasn’t working…and then I tried to stand up. Holy buckets it felt like I was underwater and I was moving in sloshy slow-mo. When I crashed into bed, my whole room felt like it was crashing with me. Needless to say, I slept well last night.^^
I remembered a random event that happened a couple years back that made me giggle so I figured I’d share it: My friend, Gavin is well-known for his road rage. Not in that he’ll tailgate and honk his horn at someone who ticks him off, rather, he’ll just go into these long drawn-out series of rants and curses. However, one day, I was driving my car and Gavin was the passenger and some bozo didn’t yield to me at an intersection and I got cut off. We saw this car coming too and Gavin was saying, “Don’t do it. Doooon’t do it. You better yield you a-hole. You better yield mother trucker…you better… and then the guy cuts in front of me and Gavin just goes, ”Oh, that’s it!! Quick! Give me something to throw at him!!” And the closest thing I had sitting beside me was an individually wrapped Oreo so Gavin grabs it, rolls down his window and chucks it at the guy’s car and it bounced off his trunk! Haha! The guys brake lights went on and Gavin just goes, “Oh sh*t!” because he feared the guy was going to come storming out with a baseball bat or something. But, he didn’t and we continued on our way without further incident. So there you have it, my random story involving road rage and an Oreo.^_^

Eep! I’ve been gone forever! Gomen! Blame work for making me close Saturday and Sunday and then blame my friends for Monday and Tuesday.XD It was my pal, Tyler’s birthday on Monday so we went out to celebrate. We went to a Thai restaurant which we thought was funny since we call Tyler, “Ty,” so we were eating Thai with Ty. Heh, I know, lame. And then we went back to Gavin’s house and they had some shots of rum and you better believe, there was Jack Sparrow references being tossed around.
It’s funny since my friend Jonesy, looks a LOT like Johnny Depp. Well, except Jonesy is taller…and thinner…and he’s also a quarter Japanese so…um, he looks like a younger, taller, thinner, quarter-Japanese Johnny Depp. Haha! Jonesy even has a Willy Wonka coat and the big goggles and he can talk JUST like Willy Wonka so it’s a hoot being around him when he’s tipsy.
On Tuesday, we went to Jonesy’s house to hang out and watch a movie. Jonesy has this gigantic black lab doggy and apparently, it was upset that we were sitting on “his couch” and while watching the movie, it decided to jump onto my lap over everyone else’s and lay down. Boy, that thing was heavy but it kept me warm so I was happy.^_^ Tyler brought over his brother’s Nintendo Wii so we played that a little bit to try it. Tyler and I weren’t drinking that night but everyone else was and Jonesy, Howard, and Gavin were trying to play the baseball game on the Wii sports. Oh man, it was hilarious since their reflexes weren’t as good as they usually were so…yeah, they didn’t do too well. I was waiting for one of those Wii remotes to go whipping out of one of their hands into the TV.

I had to get up bright and early this morning(on my day off…feh!), to go to a doctor’s appointment. There was one part that amused me while in the waiting room and it was this little girl who kept trying to get the attention of her mom who was busy talking to the secretary. The little girl kept going, “Momma? Momma? Momma? Momma? Momma?” And then after not getting a response, the girl says, “Momma, I’m going into the play room.” But she was like, 3 and she said it “play woom.”XD Again, her mom didn’t answer her, so the little girl says, “Momma, I’m going into the play woom so watch out for me, kay? In case somebody kidnaps me.” And then she walked off. I really had to fight not to crack up laughing because I was looking at a smart ass at the age of 3 years old. I love it.
I went shopping afterwards to use up gift cards and checks and money I had received for Christmas and my b-day. I got a brand-spankin’ new DVD player which is spiffy. I also got Final Fantasy XII!!! YAY! A game I’ve been mentally petting for a long time. I also bought some clothes and mangas and stuff. I was so happy…Immortal Rain: Volume 7 is out!!! Immortal Rain is one of the best, most under-appreciated mangas of all time. Story is amazing and the artwork in it…*swoons* I’ve been waiting for Volume 7 to come out for over a freakin’ year! And the anime store guy told me that it’s because the American publishers caught up with the Japanese publishers hence why it was set back so long. He said the same thing is going to happen to the Full-Metal Alchemist manga. Oh, and I bought a Kadaj from Advent Children poster too. Remember my old Kadaj theme I had earlier this year of him with his eyes shut and head tilted up? Yeah, it’s a poster of that. *fans self*

Thanks to everyone who commented and voted on my Kingdom Hearts drawing! I’m happy it was well received and people thought it was funny. After working on it for so many days/hours the humor tends to decline on my part but…obviously it’s fresh and funny for others! Heehee.^^ I just wanted an excuse to draw the Looney Tunes characters since, although I do love Disney, Looney Tunes so owns and could totally beat the crap out of any Disney character.XP I already have some follow-up drawings on this concept tinkering in my head. Anywho, if you haven’t seen it, please do:
I was going to update yesterday but then I got a call from my pal, Howard, telling me he’s having a party at his house and I’m coming. Heh, glad he let me know that! Feh! Anyway, it was originally just a smaller group of us close pals but then a huge clown car full of semi-friends came too. I prefer being with a smaller group since it’s hard to carry conversations when there’s tons of people and everyone is trying to yell over one-another to hear. It was still fun though and we watched this horror movie called, Return of the Living Dead: Part 2 and it was just so amazingly bad and it was so over-the-top 1980’s that we were having a ball making fun of it. The best part was at the end of the credits, there was a t-shirt offer to order shirts from the movie and we tried calling the number but there was no answer. Ah schucks.
We also played Pictionary…I know, bad asses to the EXTREME! Heh. Everyone wanted to be on my team and I had to clarify to them that when timed in a game like Pictionary one can’t exactly pull a Michelangelo. We split into teams of 2 and my team ended up winning with me guessing the horrific drawing attempt of a machine gun done by my friend, Phil.XD

Happy belated New Years, Everyone!^_^
I finished my Kingdom Hearts drawing yesterday. Some may remember that I talked about doing this drawing quite some time ago and I finally got around to doing it so I can check off that drawing from my long list of random ideas. But if you could please just click the thumbnail and take a look at it, I’d be ever-so pleased since I really like the way this one came out…and I don’t know why the thumby fuzzes the caption bubbles so much but it’s not like that in the bigger one:
Anyone have any New Years resolutions? I never make any since I can never follow them.^^ My one friend, Jonesy, had made a resolution last year to remove high fructose corn syrup from his diet. Which in America, is awfully tough since virtually everything has corn syrup in it but he made it and when the clock struck 12, he opened a can of Coke and chugged it.XD
But anywho, the party was so much fun. So many people were there and they were all good friends so it was a randy time. We kinda split up into groups since there was so many of us and we all did different things but then we’d rotate to see what others were doing. I got to play Karaoke Revolution for the first time and that was a riot hearing a bunch of drunks trying to sing along to that.XP We also played Super Smash Brother’s Melee and they were getting mad because no one could beat me at it even though I was quite tipsy. Heh, I actually tend to focus pretty hard core on things when I’ve had a few drinks. We didn’t start shuffling out until about 3:30am and no worries, none of us drink and drive and we all waited till we were sober to leave.^_^
And now finally, I have viewed and replied to all the Christmas/Birthday/New Years cards and well wished that I received! *pats myself on the back* But I would like to thank everyone again so, Thank You: xanth reborn, mewmewichigo, CrimsonVampire, CresentSunHanyou, jen_anime_101, snow bunny 08, Mariskah, Aaryanna, SunfallE, jigglyness, chapiz123, shadowtiger69, IceEnchantress, valon Cra_Z, midnight shadow, wonderkid, KagomeMaya17, Venus Kitty, dbzfreak93, chichirocks, darkhuntress15, Tamako315, azure nightingale, SessLover18, Grifter99, banzaiinu1, JungWoo, Jaguar, and Magnus Lensherr.^_^

When I mentioned pepper spray being illegal in NY, many people were shocked since they heard NY was so dangerous and such. Okay, once again, geography lesson guys, New York STATE is different from New York CITY. NYC is just a city within the state of NY. NYC is actually very small but it just happens to have loads of people living in it. I did live in NYC for awhile but have been moved out of there since July and now I’m living back among the hills and woods and trees and bears and wolves that I grew up with. Lol! I sound like Mogly from The Jungle Book.^^
So Saddam Hussein was executed Friday night. Good riddance to bad rubbish, I’d say. Heh…I remember the Animaniacs visiting Saddam Hussein but they referred to him as “Saddam Insane” and I believe by the end of the episode they shoved a bunch of dynamite down his pants to get rid of him.XD
I’m still working on my Kingdom Hearts drawing. I didn’t work on it as much as I’d like since I pretty much just worked all day and then came home and zonked into bed. I hope to have it done maybe by New Years day. *knocks on wood* But it depends on how late I sleep in since I’m going to that party on New Years Eve. YAY!
Oh, and I’m still going through my Christmas/birthday cards people sent to me so don’t think I’m blowing you off if I haven’t responded yet.^_^

I forgot to tell you guys one of the gifts I got for Christmas! My mom bought me mace! Haha! You know, pepper spray? It’s actually illegal to have mace here in NY but my parents worry like crazy about me getting out at 3am at the casino and walking through that dark deserted parking lot when there’s a truck stop across the highway from it. My mom got my aunt who lives in Maryland to buy it. Hey, it may be illegal but I think pepper spray is safer to carry around then a knife or a gun, neh?
I worked on my Kingdom Hearts drawing today and it’s coming along well. I wont have it done for a few days though. Sora is in it and I can’t get over how complicated his outfit is! He’s got all sorts of trinkets and armor and belts and pouches hanging all over him and in so many colors too! Boy, drawing the line-art version wasn’t too hard but coloring it proved to be time-consuming. It’s his regular outfit from the 2nd game I’m drawing. I’m not even touching all those valor, wisdom and other forms outfits…well, maybe some other time. They are pretty spiffy looking.
My friend, Phil is holding a New Years Eve party at his house and a bunch of people are going to be there. Most are old friends that I haven’t seen since…well, last New Years Eve party. Lol! I can’t wait!
And speaking of Kingdom Hearts I have a comic that I ever-so much enjoy and if you’ve ever played Kingdom Hearts you shall understand it fully when it comes to trying to open up that stinkin’ special ending!!!!

So, how was everyone’s Christmas? I hope it was fan-diddly-tastic! I didn’t get much presents-wise this year since all I asked for for my birthday/Christmas combined gift was a Nintendo Wii which my parents had zero luck finding so they just gave me the money for it and told me to find it myself. Lol! My parents asked me what I was going to do if I ended up winning a Wii from that Breast Cancer Contest and I told them that I’d just use their money to buy games and other fun stuff. Heehee! They thought that was fair.^^
My brother did get me a pretty sweet gift though which was a Sirius Satellite Radio and he bought me a few months subscription.^_^
We went to my Uncle and Aunt’s house to visit them and my grandmother and my Uncle made us all a drink called a Singapore Slam. A Singapore Slam has LOADS of alcohol in it but it’s so sweet and good that you can’t tell there’s any alcohol in it at all…until you try and stand up and realize the room is spinning. Haha! My Aunt drank a little too much because she was just total chuckle house and thought everything that I said was hilarious. My Uncle and Aunt are very rich and they have a 56” LCD backlit TV but they want to get a new one and I told them I’d buy their old 56 incher for $100 and my Uncle was like, “DEAL!” Haha…I think he was a little tipsy too considering a TV like that costs around $4000. I told him I need to get that in writing so I can get that TV…even though it would barely fit in my room, it would take up a whole wall!
I’ve shown this gif in the past but I ever-so much enjoy circulating it again once in awhile. Something about the gif just cracks me up to no end and it does take awhile to load on dial-up but it is sooooo worth it.
So ladies and gentlemen, allow me to present, Mortor:

Merry Christmas, Everyone! Or Happy Hanukkah or Kwanza or whatever you may be celebrating.^_^ I heard that people who work in stores aren’t supposed to say, “Merry Christmas” anymore in case they offend someone so they’re supposed to say, “Happy Holidays.” People are too touchy lately in my opinion.
I had to close at the casino on Saturday. I HATE closing since I don’t clock out till 3 in the morning and it’s scary as heck walking to the employee parking lot since it’s far from the building and it’s dark and just plain freaky. Our section had a Christmas Eve party…even though it wasn’t Christmas Eve yet.XP But I walk into my boss’s office to sign in and there was food EVERYWHERE! Virtually every square inch had a food of some kind and everyone was pushing food at me and telling me to try this and that and everything. People always push food at me no matter where I am since there’s so little of me and they think I’m starving or something. Lol! But, I did have some goodies and it was miiiiighty tasty.
I’m working on a new drawing too. I’m having a blast with it and can’t wait to get it done. It’s a Kingdom Hearts drawing.^^
Anywho, hope everyone has a Merry Christmas…I mean, Happy Holidays.^_~

Thanks to everyone who voted and commented on my breast cancer contest drawing! Glad people like it and thought my first-time bird’s-eye view attempt was good.^^ Yes, drawing characters at that angle was a first for me but I’m glad I did it since it was good practice so now I can start putting that into upcoming drawings. Anywho, if you haven’t seen it, I’d be happy if you would:
My birthday party went very well! All my boys came over(I’ve now started referring to my guyfriends as “my boys” for some reason…don’t know why) and we ate pizza and talked and watched movies and it was dandy. No cake though and it’s because I don’t like cake. I know, I usually get a look of horror when I say that but cake is too rich and sweet for me and it makes me feel sick after eating it so we ate Spicy Nacho Doritos. My favey! Oh yeah, and we had alcoholic beverages as well so that made things fun as well.XD My boys got me birthday presents but we all exchanged Christmas presents as well seeing as how Christmas is only a hop, skip, and a jump away. I got a great loot, my fave being season 2 of the Animaniacs box set. WOHOO!
One of the things we tend to always do when we get together is watch really bad movies and my friend, Tyler rented a horror movie called Jack Frost 2. It’s about a serial killer snow man and it was so painfully bad but we had a grand time making wise-cracks throughout it.
Quote of the Day comes from my friend, Gavin…some may remember all his corn-ball jokes and references so you know it’s going to be lame but still deserves a chuckle XP:
*Gavin is laying on the floor and looks up only to see Howard’s feet stretched out right in front of his face*
Gavin: *laughs* “Oh no, I knew there was something foul a-foot!”
