*In my best proffesso Fonsworth impression* Good news everybody! I got my own office today! It's not the one at the end of the hall like I'd hoped, bu having my own office without the possibility of someone else (especially another new intern) moving in and compromising my space.
Plus it's payday and I picked up Resident Evil 5. All in all, it's been a good day so far.
Oh, and the Chief of Police for a neighboring town has my personal cell number.

I did this self-hypnosis video thing on youtube and it actually worked, it was like i was in a trace and my mind couldn't wander at all. It relaxed up my muscles really well, feels good man.
I think those hypnosis where they say you'll lose weight or quit smoking are bs tho, but if you let yourself go the trance ones work. (for me at least, some people just can't let go)
I'm finally done with hospitals and tests for the next several weeks! Time to celebrate by going out and doing something incredibly bad for my health. I might have to go see if there's a place in town where I can get one of those sandwiches or something like it. Heck, maybe I'll go across town and get a full-size reubin. An entire loaf of raisin bread sliced the long way, with a full pound of meat, 2 cups of sauerkraut all drenched in thousand island dressing.
Oh man, is my doctor going to hate me by the time I'm 25. 8D
Finally decided on a uni, a bit further south than where I am at the moment, but not too close to those darned southerners, a good distance from the darned yorkshire people, and a great deal of distance away from those darned scots. plus it's called Keele, sounds kinda nautical amirite?
I took a header onto the concreteoday and skinned my knee something fierce. It didn't occur to me until I went to work and my bandage fell off that it is indeed Friday the 13th…I didn't fall cuz I was clumsy - the universe was against me! Makes perfect sense, no?
Also, just found out my little brother and his girlfriend - both currently US soldiers stationed in Iraq - have split up. She hooked up with her ex while on leave, and now spends time with one of my brothers supposed "friends". She's a stupidface.
I hope she catches GENITAL RABIES.
:D
You guys have all had awful times :(
Hey, that's sort of funny though too :)
———————————–
I woke up with puffy eyes… Not that unusual really, sometimes that happens, but they've stayed puffy. I might have hayfever or something? Ah well, it's mostly the sore eye, but it's not sore or even itchy now- just uncomfortably puffy.
Aaaand, I finally got the perfect thing to finish off my Hussar's barrel sash yesterday! The lovely black and silver corded ribbon stuff. I made the barrels and they looked GREAT!
So then I threaded them over the cord I bought for the purpose: 15.5 metres (50ft) of 9mm mil-spec paracord. Took me a while to calculate exactly how many time I needed to fold it…
But when I was done the whole thing was right, but too "thin". I need TWICE as much cord to bulk it out! That means I will end up with 30 metres (100 feet) of paracord wrapped around my waste when I'm done… phew! That's quite a bit.
My best friend and I went downtown this evening while it was still light out, but it got dark sooner than we thought it would so we figured we should catch the bus back. Downtown here isn't very safe at the best of times, but it's not a good place to be when it's nighttime and you're a girl barely over 5 feet. And everyone was all crazy tonight because The Eagles are here.
Anyways, we were waiting for a bus that normally comes at least every ten minutes or so. We waited nearly half an hour. In that time, three cars yelled obsene things at us, some creepy old man offered us directions(which we did not at all ask for), a crazy street lady yelled at us, and a guy asked us if we wanted to buy "touchscreen cordless phones"(at this point my friend was yelling "ya dumb f***!" randomly in an irish accent, so it was rather strange that he approached us).
Of course, eventually 3 buses pulled up in a row.
at this point my friend was yelling "ya dumb f***!"Heh, people do silly stuff when they're nervous :)
When I'm out Later than late (Or is it early then?), the people who approach me come in TWO categories:
1. Those offering to sell me various types of drugs.
2. Those trying to buy various types of drugs from me.
…I might be missing a trick there. Buy/sell… profit? :) hmm.

Oh she wasn't nervous…that's just her "thing" lately. She's a bit of an odd duck.
And apparently to some people, "Ya dumb f***!" sounds like "Hey Alex, wouldn't you like to buy some touchscreen cordless phones from a random guy in a big jacket?"
No one offered any drug deals to us, but someone did offer me free drugs earlier in the day. That was a bit weird.
So I farted out a teaser for my new comic. Then I sat back and realized "I dont think I will ever finish it."
If anyone is interested: http://i44.tinypic.com/zspdmg.png
My new comics writer and I are totally on the same page! It's almost disturbing in a way lol! Like for the main character I was thinking a small dark haired girl with glasses- guess what his description was? lol it's awesome
I've gotten some pretty lame pitches for that ad though, I mean some people didn't even read it at all they just sent me an email going 'hi will you do a comic with me' and didn't even send the summary as asked. :/ Eh that's webcomics for yah, but i've read pro pitches on digital webbing worse than the ones i got.
Oh well this new comic is refreshing :)
So…My friend just had to inform me that he tried to cut open his wrists. With a plastic knife. I can't help but wonder if he felt ridiculous while he was busy sawing open his skin with the thing. I called him a dumb-ass and he started laughing uncontrollably for twenty minutes. I'm a little creeped out right now. O_o

Or perhaps a genuine cry for help. These days it's hard to tell, what with them emo kids and their "it's cool to cut yerself up!" fad. huh!?
Don't worry whatshername he wont actually suicide he's just being an attention whore.

I just broke off my headphone jack inside my computer -_- I'm fucking pissed these were good headphones, i have a warranty on them but only for 50% off coupon. I've got to go to best buy and have them take the jack out-they might send it away for a few days so i'll die baaaaawwww
Seriously thought fucking cheap plastic jack, the only thing that's metal about it is the coating! For the price it's not worth it at all ugh -_-
I used to kind of be emo. Not with the cutting thing, but I was depressed, I had the long black hair. All that good stuff.
Then I saw the light, got a haircut, and now the ladies adore me. They liked me before, but dang, now it's too crazy! Haha.
Anyway, I'm gonna spend the day with my mom :D I'm pretty excited.
Later on I'm gonna work on the comic a ton. And I just got done looking through the VERY first comic books I ever made. This was back when I was like, 11/12, which for me, was a while ago.
I wanna change my room around too.
I'm also thinking about drawing some pictures today too, for Ryu's Krew. I just feel I need more pictures.
Also, I've been slowly getting more readers, but my DD rank is going back up, which kinda sucks. But I'd rather have more readers anyway! :3
And now, if you'll excuse me, I shall go for my run, then shower, and then hang out with my mom.
I really wanted the rasta ones but….oh well
My brother has a pair of those. There's a bottle opener hidden in them.

For some reason, I am compelled to inform you all that I'm writing this while on the toilet. Technology is amazing, is it not?
i made a few pages of
vus like that.made some posts like that too.more relaxing somehow. man i miss wireless.
And I just got done looking through the VERY first comic books I ever made. This was back when I was like, 11/12, which for me, was a while ago.Ha! I love looking at old comics. I recently found a bunch from high school. There's a couple that are okay; most of 'em are just inside joke one-shots starring old RPG characters.
But the one I really want to find (the only existing copy I know of is at my Grandmother's house) is a 13 pager I did for a college scholarship. (That's the only time I ever made money off a comic- somethin' to the tune of $17,000/year!)
I have no idea where my really old (from age 5-8) comics are, but I've got is this one comic my brother and I made when we were 8 and 10, respectively. It's completely insane. I kind of want to post it here. lol!

That would actually be really fun to see. I actually just found the comics I drew when I was 8. My mom kept them!!!
My mom bought me some new PJs which she does on occasion. She thought they were appropriate for Saint Patty's Day. The bottoms were green with shamrocks and the top was white with a giant shamrock on it. I thought they were cute until I realized the Shamrock had the Guiness logo printed on it. I told her. "I'm not 21 yet, I shouldn't wear those. But thanks for the thought." She still didn't get it. I had to explain it to her in slow terms that Guiness was an Irish beer. Then she said. "You mean this has nothing to do with the World Records?" *facepalm*
The PJs are cute, but I can't exactly wear them in public. Wouldn't feel comfortable even if I was 21.
So they have to take away my laptop for 10-15 days to fix it! wtf! What's worse is i hafta go buy an external harddrive because it's their policy to run insane tests wile there and if your harddrive doesn't pass it does die T_T Gah
The guy told me to pull that jack out it would take someone 8 hours! what the hell? he said it was attached to the motherboard o something, 8 damn hours for a headphone jack.
