I'm entertaining the prospect..

Mimmi- I still think it would be funny if he actually did it himself and is denying it.

Shin- Y-You mean you've been visiting other forums? I'm sure OB feels so used.

Also, there are lots of conflicting stories about what exactly happened. The variation I heard was that he cut in front of him in the snack line or something like that.

Ken- I wonder what would happen if Mario ate two Super Mushrooms.. OD or crazy high?

Yeah, in case you didn't notice, I changed my layout. The colors were inspired mostly by the Von Bondies (which is a totally awesome band), but I don't know why I went with techno/rave stuff. I suppose we'll just leave that to historians to deliberate for centuries to come.

So yeah, feedback, please. I know the pink is bright, but after staring at it for about an hour my retinas adjusted.

Actually, I've been on a Von Bondies binge for the past couple of days. Their songs are really fun to play on the guitar.

My dad's assumed the role of head advertisey guy at his workplace, and he runs their booth at the local Poppy Festival (state flower, blooms around this time of year). My brother pitches in with balloon animals and entertaining kiddies, for some reason, and I don't know what my mom does, but he forced me into making printable Photoshop stuff for his 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk, which he ties into this whole ordeal.

He wanted the logo and a pink ribbon, which was easy enough. All of the images I could find were really small, though, so I kind of had to redo the logo from scratch, which wasn't hard, considering it's pretty much all text.

The pink ribbon was a good chance at messing around with the pen tool, though. Vector art rocks my socks, and I'd like to learn how to do it, but I need as much practice as I can.

Because the pen tool hardly makes any sense.

Anyway, I had to print out a ton of them, and it sucks, because I ran out of ink. Supposedly, I get payment for this, but I don't think that'll happen.

So yeah, the actual thing started today, and everyone went and had a merry time, but I decided to stay home. I pretty much stayed on the computer the whole time, which was mixed with doing the dishes and practicing the guitar more. God, I suck at that, with my frail little girly fingers.

Still, though, it's nice to have some solitude. I want to live alone, just to see how it's different.

I get this anime catalogue in the mail quarterly.. It's probably something I accidentally signed up for at Anime Expo one year. I never really buy anything off of it, but I like skimming.

It has a hentai catalogue, too, which I find funny. Hentai's just so stupid.. Even more unrealistic and campy than regular porn.

I'm ordering the Pixies concert tickets tonight.. Altogether, we're going to have five people there. My dad, three of my friends, and myself, but I'm not paying for anyone else's way. Unlike the Weird Al concerts, I'm making sure I get to keep some of my damn money this time.

According to what I just looked at, the best seats available are Mezzanine Row E, which kind of sucks, but it's better than nothing. Let's hope they're not gone by the time I find my dad's credit card.

EDIT: My parents decided they want to discuss the matter with everyone else's parents before buying the tickets.. It makes sense, but I'm still paranoid the tickets will all be gone by then. It's kind of unrealistic, but still.. They've been out for four days, and they're already half sold out.
