We chase misprinted lies.

First off, these shoes must be mine. MINE! I had the sudden urge to go buy some All Stars tonight, and while poking around I happened to run onto these. They don't come out until next month! I can't wait!

I finally gave in and did the flickr pro thing. No thanks to none of you bastards. What do I have to do, offer to write something on my tits for $10? Actually, I would totally do that but the idea seems way overdone. I'm a high class broad. I only show my tits for charity these days!

Lately, I've had this overwhelming feeling I should be doing *something*. I don't mean sitting and waiting for someone to teach me or tell me to do something. I mean up and moving this creativity around on my own. And, short of branding myself, or branding out Attention Whore (which would be extremely easy if I had initiative and process), I'll need to come up with something tangible, and someone to back it.

My friend, Steven, and I think we have a decent idea. It's lead to me trying to be artistic again, which is only half failing this time. And it's also lead to us having a license to be extremely fucking vulgar. I always pretended to be artistic and witty, and I'm well, fuck, you all know. Always a bridesmaid, never a Van Gogh. But anyways, our super secret idea has given me a lot of sleepless nights and a lot of fun trying to push myself to some amazing humor level I always wanted to have.

I'm going to start on my next subproject for this tomorrow; creating my own font. Me and lessons in futility don't get along well, so I can see this crashing and burning.

I think we're gonna try and have something ready for show in about a month, but I dunno yet. It's scary thinking I have what I believe to be a great idea, when I know how I tend to leave things half finished. I've got to prove myself wrong on this one, and if nothing comes from this, then at least I've spent a lot of quality time with a good friend and have a hobby I can put to good use throughout a year. OMG.

And, as of yet I have no plans for the weekend, so who knows what will happen. I just now that for now, I've got to go practice drawing penguins and get some rest.

Now, as for you, go pickup a David Sedaris book, turn on some Blind Melon, and fall in love. It'd do you some good and you've got to get out of this mood you've been in lately.

In other news, the only pothead I can stand, one Mr. Chronic T. Hedgehog, had a nasty occurance with a diseased appendix last month that knocked him out for the holidays and part of January as well. He's back and making some headway on askapothead.com and is apparently picking up staff writers.

And just because I say so, go give Sarah Brown a hug. She could use it. Put in a good word for me with her brother if you can too.

And last but not least. I tried to draw you a tulip.

Somehow you know me too well despite the fact that we haven't talked in months.

Also, I have been considering doing some branding work, but first I have a choice of direction to make.

Might I recommend the song "Change" to start with.

Those have to be the best shoes in the world, dear sister of mine.

Yeahs for all the new posts! :) I'm happy again! :)

I was refering more to the "falling in love" part and the "mood you've been in lately" part. I have enough to read and lately I have been in the mood for some silence. That part is treating me just right.
