I spent $80 on Free Comic Book Day.  Hey, it was 20% off storewide - how can I resist the bargain?? The clerks ringing me up were freakin the hell out, "I've never even HEARD of a GIRL spending this much money on comic books!" THey even threw in a free $20 Burne Hogarth book on Dynamic Light and Shadow for me. Oh, what a wink and giggle will get a girl ;)
It was the four "Blade of the Immortal" books that jacked up my total... but they are so worth it. I need MORE!!!

Two days later, and I am still recovering from Birthday Celebration Mayhem on the 9th. My god.. I haven't partied that hard in I can't even tell you how long. Talk about wild abandon. It felt faaaaantastic. I lost count of the shots around 10pm. The bestest friends a girl could ask for were all there. I made a sappy, heartfelt toast to them, telling them all how much I value them, love them, need them, admire them, etc... It felt good to let them all know that sentimental stuff. Life's too short to assume the people you care about know how you feel... they'll always feel good when you tell them. 

I got a huge case of the warm fuzzies from all the great birthday wishes from my Elftown friends, too. It was really overwhelming - you guys don't even know how much you made my day. 

This was, literally, the best birthday I've ever had.
*big hugs all around*

I was doing some reading on the forums in IMDb.com
about the Animatrix. I've been thinking about that
Second Renaissance over the past couple of days.

I was so stoned, that portion really stuck in my mind.
Here's some interesting random stuff I dug up.
Remember the robot who was hauled in front of the
courts: B166ER?

There are references to Bigger Thomas from Native son.

From Amazon:

"Bigger Thomas is doomed, trapped in a downward spiral
that will lead to arrest, prison, or death, driven by
despair, frustration, poverty, and incomprehension. As
a young black man in the Chicago of the '30s, he has
no way out of the walls of poverty and racism that
surround him, and after he murders a young white woman
in a moment of panic, these walls begin to close in.
There is no help for him--not from his hapless family;
not from liberal do-gooders or from his well-meaning
yet naive friend Jan; certainly not from the police,
prosecutors, or judges. Bigger is debased, aggressive,
dangerous, and a violent criminal. As such, he has no
claim upon our compassion or sympathy."

and from IMDb:

"I was reading the comics on whatisthematrix.com when
I noticed the name of the lawyer that interrogates
him. The lawyer's name is Clarence Drummond. If you've
ever read Inherit The Wind, then you'll catch the
reference. If not, here's an explanation.

Clarence Darrow was a lawyer hired to represent a
teacher who taught his students the theory of
evolution in the 1920s. The case made national
headlines because the evolution theory was more
controversial than abortion is today. Years went by,
and a couple of writers decided to turn the case into
a play. In the play, the teacher's attorney is named
Henry Drummond."

Makes me wonder what other subtleties I missed out on
in the piece.

Some excellent advice that was passed onto me when I mentioned wanting a career change into art and feeling like it was a little late in the game for me...

it's NEVER too late, Paul Gauguin didn't start painting until he was 40, there's no rush, it's not like there is a cut-off date ;-) so if you think you would like to do it, just do it, start today, it's really the only day you ever have.

thank you, oh wise one ^^ [smakeupfx]
