Well because I passed out last night in the middle of my work. I do mean passed out, one minute I was working on the sofa with my computer the next I had my head at an awkward angle startling at the sound of my mothers alarm. I think a good 11 hours had passed…I'm not entirely sure. o_O;;
I had to miss a fucking day of school so I could get my print files finished and dropped off, ARGH. I'm still fucking working on it but took a moment to vent my aggravation. I'm missing Friday's class and probably Mondays. I'm going to be to tired and sick of doing art to be able to sit and work through 6 hours of life drawing. Fuck that.
I hate sculpture any way….And had done not a drop of homework for it.
Katsucon has stolen my soul and I want it back damn it!
Anyway back to work so I can go run my errands like a good little bitch.
Leave 5 am tomorrow.

| The female artist's quandary |

Have you ever noticed there is a lacking of female written and female drawn humor comics? There seems to be no woman equivalent to the popular slice of life humor series.
Are woman not witty enough? Not sarcastic enough or talented enough to be able to make an impact on the population? Are characters have to magical powers be busty and attractive to make the main streams of Internet reading.
One of the comics that some of the strongest female characters I'd say is "something positive." But it's not by a woman and certainly doesn't star one as the main character. But it does offer a variety of clever independent females, maybe subconsciously this is why I've always heavily favored SP. Randy is an excellent writer; with a nice style to back it up.
Now I'm sure there are some of these rare female-based comics with a good following,. But you don't see any that are widely promoted or lavished with fan basis as Mega Tokyo, Penny Arcade or Machall. As far as I know we see very few woman (Non-Asian) being featured at convention panels.
I'm making generalizations here, if you know of some that break the bias then do share. I'm also in one of those pissy pro-feminist moods so don't mind me and my aggravated rantings.

I got my shiny new “Nomad Jukebox zen xtra 30 gig” by Creative lab. In laymen’s terms that means it’s an MP3 player with a shit load of space.(My laptop is only 37 gigs!) While I’m not entirely sure why I felt I desperately needed that much space I’m not unhappy with it. An Ipod with 20 gigs costs at least $200 more. (FUCK YOU IPOD!) Of course once one gets an mp3 player that means you have to spend hours sorting and categorizing your music. Which is about I’ll I’ve done other then nap since I got home from school. >_>; sadly even after all my efforts there is still a good deal of unsorted music left. O_o;

My new icon features Hawkeye from "Fullmetal Alchemist" because she is the shit. I had nothing but love for her after this seen. It's too bad she happens to be one of those "badass but not really important" characters. She serves as an assistant to the dude with the dark hair. I think ever "FMA" fan went "OMFG SHE ROCKS!" after chapter 7. (see cut pages)

I've been drawing chibi's for 3 hours now.... I need to draw some sort of mass gratuitous violence soon because I'm going to lose it at this rate.
Katsucon 2 weeks and counting...
I think if I don't sleep more the 2 hours every day I can finish everything, take 3 nights off before the convention and work in naps on those days and I should be ready for it. I need to remember to eat, since food distracts your body from needing sleep for energy. Caffeine good.... My hand hurts, stupid wrist.
Commissions and whore art must be finished.... Must finish..

Oh yes baby this is my newly finished Christmas gift from my dad and uncle. *Cough* I mean OF course this is going to be kept down south! *cough* >_> Um right. Anyway it weighed a ton before they did all the work on it. So it’s probably even heavier now. I'm getting a box of "#6 shots" and a box of "deer slugs"
" chose to give it a slightly sci-fi look.
Everything except the gun's own metal will be given a black slightly
rubbery stipple finish. There are two visible parts made of aluminum- a 3/4"
diameter tube about a foot long, and a 1/8" thick by 1 1/4" wide strap of
about the same length. They connect the pistol grip to the part which
presses to your shoulder." -- The description offered by dad.
He's coming back Saturday and I've been a horrible unloving child and not written him yet. *guilt*
I’m beginning to believe that people who don’t offer AT LEAST one 200x40 or one 88x31 needs to be beaten or not bothered with at all. It hurts the part of my brain that demands perfect page symmetry. (in reference to compiling a page of links)
Best quote read today - "Despite of her miraculous expanding tits”
from “The Female eunuch” a feminist book concerning all things in society and how it has shaped the woman’s view of her self (1970) by Germaine Greer
A surprisingly interesting read thus far, I bought it for the purpose to converting it into a sketch book for class. But started reading it today in class, I bought it because the title amused me.
Word to the wise NEVER read fan fiction about bands you like. Not when there happen to be two band members who are related to each other. Curiosity is the sum of all evil, and all pain.

"I hadn't been paying attention to the whole Iowa caucus thing, but the next day I hear from everywhere how Dean totally flipped out and went absolutely nuts. Eventually found a video link. All I can say is, this is TEH CRAZY everyone's been talking about? That's not even a little crazy. He's just pumping up his supporters, for fuck's sake! Next time the whole country starts spurting off about the mental state of a candidate, I fully expect to come in and see someone biting the head off a goddamn chicken. I want to see someone get so mad they blow a forehead artery and hose own the front two rows of the audience. I want to see the Democratic candidate lose it in the middle of a debate while George W. is explaining his economic stimulus package, tackle him, and earfuck the son of a bitch. Hell, in Latin America, that would be a stump speech. If we're going to bring the crazy, let's get serious about it! " --- Matt of Machall
Sweet jebus yes! That was enough to give me the strong urge to molest him. Or something to that extent, I was left giddy at any rate. Perhaps this is why none of the men who have tried to woe me have succeeded. None of them can spit out such lovely political ranting. *snerk* I think I need to find my self a quirky English major.

I’ve been a horrible person, like total hermit regression. I haven’t even written an e-mail to my dad since I got back from visiting him. My friends have been treated just as poorly. I’ve been alienating all I hold dear, and for that I’m sorry.
Looks like I’m on my own this year, no B-day celebration of which to speak of. Since as far as I know no one plans on doing anything with me and my mother hasn’t spoken of us having a special dinner. Whatever it doesn’t bother me, well ok it bothers me a “little”. Meaning I’ll make sure to bring it up on occasion to guilt certain people. <-- (This all relates to not e-mailing and visiting people)

My opinion of the anti-anime-styled art sentiments, partially those pertaining to Deviant art and other art posting communities. Summarized in one letter.
My fellow Japanese pop-culture influenced artists!
We are the scourge of the western art world, we slither along the bottom of all decent art communities. Infiltrating with break neck speed, we are many now. Representing the imported commercial world, our work distorts, elongates, warps and sullies the very name of fine art.
For we are cute, sexy, racy, exotic, often erotic, pandering Pedophilia like glorified holy relics! We appeal to the very basic human responses and visual stimulation. With our cheap meaningless visual whoredom, we monopolize and industrialize.
We sell our prints and posters; scribble out commissions to the awaiting masses. Brutalizing not only Japans fair culture but our own! With our big eyes, watermelon mouthed sparkling abominations. Our brightly colored images are burned into young impressionable children’s minds, for ever ruining their chances at being “real artists”.
Don’t you see how we rape and pillage the very foundation of art? And see how we take great mirth and the deepest sadistic satisfaction as we continue to deface all drawn and scratched line!
We laugh at their prefect proportioned sculptures and abstract globs of paint! We urinate upon those be speckled surfaces and mock them as we do so. We are truly no better then those sad clown’s and fluffy puppies that have been the scourge of the legitimate art world for so long. We hold the power to make true artists fall to their knee’s and weep, and the power to make them leap to their feet with righteous indignation.
We are no better then the “rococo” movement, but we lack the skill and technique they boosted. We the new age cheap imitation, rotting the minds of all. It is our mission NO our life’s goal to ruin and debauch all art!
We have but one style and but one genre! We lack all creativity and originality. Unlike those hundreds of genuine paintings that center upon depressed pouty lipped women.
BE HOLD OUR TRUE PLAN!
Soon we shall have corrupted all visual expression! No category shall be safe from our fiendish talent less claws! Oh how we lust for that golden day when all shall come together and we are victorious! We will stand upon the art worlds smoldering remains and we shall throw back are heads and chortle like never before! The true Nazi’s of the art world, we the future and death of all expression!
If you don’t realize that this was meant to be satirical, then my god I pity you.
Oh an in reference to the use of “Japanese pop-culture influenced artists” rather then using the commonly used “anime styled artist”. Anime is animation, speaking of it as a general style, is like labeling our selves as one would refer to an artist who uses nothing but a “Disney” based style. Japanese Animation is not one company, and should not be treated as such.

I don’t want an education, I'm happy being an uneducated punk I hate oil painting I hate work I FUCKING HATE ESSAYS do I look like a mother fucking English major???? NO after I'm done with school I'll never need to write a fucking essay again!!! HOW THE HELL DOES BULLSHITING TERM PAPERS PERPARE ME FOR LIFE?!?!?! HOOOOOOOOOW????? No days off until MARCH. I'm not sure I can make it, as it is I'm ready to claw my eyes from my skull and be done with it. This is one of those "I want to curl up in a corner and never get up" moments. I want to cry right now, but mother fucker I can’t. Although if given a choice I'd go with "beating my instructors with steel baseball bats" I'm going to fucking fail and FUCK IT ALL TO HELL. MAY RABID SQUIRRELS BRING DOWN THE WRATH OF A THOUSAND SUNS UPON THEIR HOUSES, may they be burned into smoldering piles of charcoal that smuck talentless artists may wipe upon their asses for their "performance" crap art! I hope their babies are eaten and clawed at by wandering bands of half starved dogs!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

For the past 2 days I've been working for hours on end getting another one of my sites working. I haven't slept yet, but if I go to sleep now I'll be unconscious until at least 3pm. And I have to much work left to let that slide...well for a 3rd time anyway. Mother gets up at 6 am, the fact I'm old enough to be living alone wont stop her from kicking my ass for being up so late. So I think I'm going to have to retreat to my bed room until she leaves. But I must not sleep....Sleep evil....
Oh and my laptop fell off the sofa and landed on the side where the wireless card goes, thus jamming the card in. And effectively killed the part that holds it in place. In other words my laptop was sadomized and had something ruptured on the inside. My poor baby....

I just stumbled upon Sublunaire.net, which houses the most lovely comic "Natura Morta" the artist Abril is fantastic. She draws the sexiest hair, and it has this whole Mucha look to it. Since I love all things visually similar to Mucha I love this. Her work isn't with out flame, but it's ok since it helps remind us that no artist is perfect. And I'd have to kill her if it was. ^_^
My laptop met with a spot of bad luck, and it needs to be fixed. I sob and cry on the floor and ask the gods why.
My subdomains are working oh how I giggle with manic glee.

Since we all know what a "trendy bitch"-Quoted from tubby aka canebrake I am, I shall post my new years resolution. Not that I, or any one else gives a shit. Since god only knows if I'll accomplish any of it.
- Finish ALL freelance work (and/or commit ritual suicide)
- Improve on drawing hands/feet/perspective/backgrounds (and/or C.R.S.)
- Finish websites AND make subdomains work (and/or C.R.S.)
- Reply to all notes (and/or C.R.S.)
- Visit with each friend at least once (you get the idea)
- Continue avoiding all potential dating relationships (...)
- Brush up on knife throwing skills
- Kill those who bother my little brother
- Get P-chan to become less homophobic
- Get Alice on happy drugs
- Get Andy on 10 times whatever I gave Alice
- Teach Amiad to put the seat down, after using toilet
- Get Jose a well oiled male stripper
- And yes as every year I hope to kill Brian
Good enough, hopefully at least half of these will succeed.
I hope no one misinterprets my good-natured joking, and if they do they can "suck it". ^_^ Happy holidays.

I went to a shooting range today, I finally got to use my gun. It was fun! XD And I have pretty good aim considering I haven't gone shooting in many years. I hit red the first time I tried, I’m very proud of myself. I’ll have some pictures to post later. We bought some “hallow points” while we were there, so I’m already for next time.
Once the owner of the shooting range/ gun store found out I had my own gun, he offered me a job there. That would be the sweetest job, I'd love to work there! Great research too, I'd be able to brush up on my gun knowledge and just think of the employee discount.
Now I'm considering moving down here for the summer, I could work and make some extra cash while doing my art. At first I didn’t think I'd be able to since the range is a 15-minute drive from the house, But my uncle is retired and offered to drive me back and forth. That would rock all. Louisiana is the place to be if you need a job, it has the 2nd highest school drop out rate in the country. The educated have it easy.
I leave Thursday, but my cousin returned to her apartment today.

Go forth and download the peace maker manga for it is good action and story all done by one badass female mangaka who goes by Chrono.
I obsessively collected this for almost 2 years now, I have all 6 volumes and I love it. Good historic fiction goddamn it! AND NINJAS! Yesh….. This series is where my deep fondness of ninja’s turned to obsession. GO GO!
I’m leaving tomorrow at 9 am, where I shall face the living hell called the airport. Metal detectors, x-rays, guards & bomb sniffing dogs await me. Oh yes I can’t wait! I think I’m going to have to pack my Konoha headband and jounin gloves (Naruto apparel) in my suit case. I’m pretty sure I’ll get in trouble if they are found in my carry on bags. How shall I ever fit all my supplies and a lap top into 2 carry ons?!? HOW?! Argh I used to have 3- 4 bags along with the suit case. But I haven’t flown since “9/11” happened.
For Christmas I got two lovely black leather gauntlets that go from my wrist to 2 inches below my elbow. A Naruto plushie, Sasuke plushie, Gaara plushie, a laptop knee rest board, the 3 disk DVD of Mythical detective Loki and some other nifty things. My friends are too good to me sometimes! *SNIFFLE*
I’ll be catching up on replies and e-mails while I’m away, I return on January 1st. sadly I missing Jose’s B-day. I’ll make it up to him later. I have internet while I veg, although I also have work to finish and commissions to complete. Commissions I wanted to have finished by Christmas but life didn’t agree with that. I’ve been trying to pull my self together get collected and under control. I seem to be failing at that. The past couple of months its felt like things where out of my hands and I’m just barely holding everything together. It sucks, really it does. I don’t like that feeling at all.
I managed to buy just about everyone something they liked, so people haven’t received their gifts yet. I had to shell out a nice bit of cash especially on P-chan and Grahams gifts. But I really wanted both of them to have something really good that they would enjoy. They both have to put up with a lot of crap lately, and are always getting the short end of the stick. So it was worth it as long as they enjoyed their gifts.
Good vocal artists I’ve been grooving too lately
