Hmm not too bad last night... my feet are KILLIN' me *whimper* so no more double shifts for a while until I get used to being on my feet all day again. Actually, they let me go early, and I took my last tables at about 8pm, got outta there around 9:30 because I helped the waitress staying on for a bit - and I still made just shy of $100 in tips, so that makes the pain not-quite-so-bad. *thumbs up* I bet if I had stayed through the whole double shift I would have broken $150.

Anyway, I'm gunna try REAL HARD not to spend every last dime of it at the Baltimore Comic Con on Sunday. =9

Off to the first day on the job...
I'm nervous =}
Bye, monkeys!

I dunno how many of you are familiar with the band Men at Work, but I caught the lead singer, Colin Hay on the tv show "Scrubs" and just fell in love with his voice and guitar playing. I nudged Evilmonk and was like, "Hey is that the Men at Work guy??? Oh yeah, lookit his eye, that's him!" lol I looked him up on AOL Music and just about everything I've listened to by him has been fantastic.

this house is creepy...

I got hired as a waitress today :O
I've never waited tables before, so this'll be an interesting experience and I'm sure I'll have some horror stories to tell by the end of the month. I did have to stress to the owner that I absolutely under no circumstances want to work in the kitchen AT ALL (most of my work experience has been cooking). He joked about them being short handed and putting me back there and I was all serious and said, "I absolutely do not want to work in the kitchen" so if they try to fuck with me and put me back there slingin' chow, I am gonna flip out! lol

Well, I start on Thursday and I tried to get the same days that Evilmonk is working so we'll have the same days off together. =}

Trying to get the hang of setting things up at the newly opened *drumroll*

Please give [Evilmonk] and I some input, thoughts, comments, suggestions, etc. We'd certainly appreciate it.  These are designs that we threw together quickly tonight so we could see how the store operates. Once we have some more solid designs ready we will make the upgrade to Premium Shop to make it look all professional-like, have more variety of products, etc.

From Astonishing X-men #16...

Emma: "Negasonic Teenage Warhead."
Kitty: "Wow, we really have run out of names..."

LMFAO
Joss Whedon is the man - I enjoy his writing so much (Buffy, Firefly, the comics). And if I were to say who I would model myself after in the comic art world, it'd have to be John Cassaday. I just love his less is more attitude, the people look like REAL people, and the great facial expressions. Laura Martin's colors are a big part of it, too.

How cute of the Featured Member Bosses to do a double feature of my husband and I! I wonder how many other ET married couples are out there? I know of one other - I mean that met on ET and then married, like me and [Evilmonk]. It'd be an interesting survey to take - maybe it should be a Main Street poll huh? 
Anyway, thank you, [Sunny Silverunicorn], for the nice messages these past few weeks getting ready for the feature! =)

Someone is cooking bacon... maybe next door?
*inhales deeply*
*salivates uncontrollably*
DAMN THEM. DAMN THEM STRAIGHT TO HELL.
*wipes drool*

Has anyone else played Hexic on Xbox360? Created by the same guy who made the crack called Tetris. 
The black pearl... continues to elude me. Must. Get. Black. Pearl.

I was super psyched about Ninety-Nine Nights for the Xbox360 being released tomorrow. But, after reading so many mixed reviews (some people downright HATE the game!), I think I will wait for Samurai Warriors 2 coming out in September. Looks like more indepth strategy involved, plus BONUS - two player coop (my favorite)!

Here's some first day 'bragging mommy' pictures of our new kitten, Unagi! =)

Unagi-Neko

*squeals with delight*
=D
We're getting a new kitten tomorrow!

I've lost my husband to the zombies in Dead Rising...

also... I can't get my drawing for EVE started and it's PISSING ME RIGHT THE HELL OFF.
*stands in a pile of crumpled paper*
Stupid razed city.

*whew*
good to be home ^_^
I'm not gonna drive any more than absolutely necessary for a while now!

Still in Florida for a couple more days here.  I miss my kitty cats, but I'll be sad to leave here. =( We've been having such a wonderful time visiting family - and meeting some old (yet new lol) friends!
We met [TheRogue], [Rennie], and [Steve*O] earlier this week and hung out for quite a while. But the real treat was last night when we all went to Denny's for a drawing session. Wow, the creativity around that table was awesome! Even a couple of guys who worked at Denny's approached us - one asked if we were taking writing submissions, the other ended up sitting down with us after his shift and drawing, too. 
I can't tell you how much Evil and I enjoyed hanging out with these fine people. We'll be very sad not to have their company back in Baltimore, but at least we get to hang out with them in Elftown. We hope to return to Pensacola soon and often in the future, so we will definitely do this again! ^_^

I had a dream I was driving, and it was a dark, rainy night. The road was slick and winding up a mountain. I crashed through the guard rail, and the car slowly flipped upside-down in the air. I was plummeting in what seemed like slow motion towards the side of the mountain. As I was doing so, I thought of all the things I regretted not doing while I had the chance. I regretted not calling my Grandmother enough. I regretted not sending a thank you card. I regretted any grudges I held. Then I thought, I never learned how to fly. And I slipped out the open window and floated up past the car and into the night. I was crying and laughing and spiraling faster and faster upwards.

So, I guess the point is, it's never too late to take a chance on doing something you really want. If you don't, you'll crash to your firey death full of regrets? Hmmmm. But it was a cool dream, whatever it meant.


*sidenote: I think at some point, I also became a horse. Flying. Not a pegasus - had no wings. Don't know where that fits in or what it means heheheh

My husband and I, and another couple, went to this great outdoor art festival yesterday evening - www.artscape.org. It was overcast and raining, but that is perfect weather for us =) Better than the bright, hot sun! 
There were so many amazing artists there (also a lot of overpriced crap, but it's all in the eye of the beholder, right?). I had to cling to my husband and say, "Please, don't let me spend money!" because everywhere I looked I wanted something.
We did make one art purchase though. Very reasonably priced prints at 2 for $25. Amazing pencil drawings that you could stare at a long time, and see something new on each occaision. Here are the two we bought:

Go check out Phil Kutno - "Alternative Psychedelic Opti-Visionary Engineer" (or so his business card says hehe)

Just watched the final episode of Samurai Champloo...

*tear*

We have Samurai Champloo Vol. 1, 2, and 3.
I, for whatever reason, was under the impression that was the entire first season. I am TOTALLY GEEKING OUT to see on Netflix Vol. 4, 5, 6, and 7!!!
=B
Move dat shit to the top of my queue, thank youuuuuu!!!!

After sharing my dream, I thought of starting a wiki where people could share thier dreams and discuss them with everyone. Does anyone know if a wiki like this already exists?
