Chrismas List NUMBAH TWOOOOO!!!!

It's heerrrreeeeeeeeee.........

Hee hee. I know I haven't posted in a while, and losts of stuff has happened. I also realize that I'm two months early in posting this, but Dad said he's started shopping already. I'll let Mom talk about that annoying logical stuff like the month, and what's happened, heaven knows I don't want to. Instead, here's some good ol' whining.

Yes. Oh yes. It has come. It has come to destroy you all! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Ahem. Sorry.

This is actually my first Christmas list, as usually I don't have any goals in mind during the season. Now that I do, I may as well right them down now before I forget. This is in note format with headings (in bold) and subheadings (in italics).

This is a work-in-progress, and it'll be updated as the season progresses. Sit tight!

It's too hot to think of a title.

102 today. Since it was so hot, I had no appetite, but it since t was hot and I wanted to see if eating would d help, I wound up ingesting the following:

Six popsicles

Two ramen (in the morning, when it was cooler)

Two small cantaloupes

Two pieces of bread

A bite of cheese.

I swear to god, if Dad yells at me again I'm going to kill him.

I got my report card today. He didn't want me to see it before I did. I told him that since it was my work and my grade, I should see it first. Apparently this was a capital crime, as he shouted, "I swear, if you open that mouth to me you're not seeing it at all! Now you just back off!"

I wound up getting all A's, with an A- in math.

Somehow I'm not as enthusiastic as I thought I would be.

The Tree Vortex

There was a story on a chat board I was reading that caught my eye. Apparently, across the poster's street, a tree had fallen and torn up a chunk of sidewalk. A company was hired to dispose of the tree, but for some reason left the stump, as though it would just work itself back into place like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle. It didn't.

A few days later Ms.Poster found a pair of boots next to the stump. Her theory was that the boots had fallen from the tree and the neighborhood stray had kicked them into veiw.

A different theory was quickly suggested by another member of the chat: a previously undiscovered vortex hiding under the tree has sucked up an unsuspecting passerby so fast that his/her boots were left behind in this dimension.

I had to draw it.

More info on DevArt.

In other news, SUMMER'S HERE! Well, it has been here. For about six days. I'm pretty sure I'll be very socially active, since I have given my phone number to a group of people who take great delight in gatherings of five to ten friends. These seem to happen approximately twice a week, instead of twice a month like I'm used to, but hey, it's better than fighting hormones that insist that Dad is an enemy to be verbally bashed every five seconds.

Yep. That's about it.

Yet Another One

I like her design, And her yellow came out great! And that's coming from someone who hates yellow. Typically bad BG. More on DevArt.

Erm...

No title for this one, too lazy.


New DevArt ID, if you want the info, go there. Love the eyes and glasses on this one.

Another Elf explosion today. Mom, Elf, Midget, and I went over to a distant cousin's house for a Memorial Day BBQ, Elf exploded after two hours, Mom had to hold him down, I had to call Dad, the usual.
