Phonezies!!! I love Tokidoki and I love phone charms. Two-in-one!!

And I love unicornos.... Vandalo is so cute!

I'm such a big kid.. ^__^

Lovebirds 5 weeks update, Pancake is with egg

So we have a little escape artist. Little Darwin, our lone adventure, is always outside of the cage when we go into the bird room. We bought the cage on Craigslist for a decent price, but it's more for a bigger parrolet or a medium parrot. The bars are little spaced out, so the little babies can just squeeze through if they have enough ambition.

Darwin does not like to be caged. He is content sitting on someone's shoulder, or sitting atop Pancake & Lunchbox's cage. Of course that's only if Pancake is too tired to chase him around to bit his feet.

I've been looking for additional cages to house them in. We don't know the sexes yet, but if they are all males then we really won't have a problem. If there is a mix of sexes, we are going to be in trouble in a few months when they sexually mature. The problem is that cages are so freakin' expensive and I'm broke. :S

I'm seriously thinking about starting a GoFundMe for bird cages. LOL.

4 babies, Darwin is off by himself

So about Ms. Pancake. She laid another egg last night, and I can see that another one is about to drop. We can't have anymore babies, so we are just letting her lay them without a box. Dillon is going to have to shake the eggs and put them back in. Apparently this will keep her from trying to lay eggs for a while.

After a month or so we are going to pull out all the newspaper and the dead eggs. We'll have to come up with some other kind of bedding that will deter her from laying... and them from mating again.

Poor Lunchbox is still eating his shoulder. I think the stress of feeding all the babies and knowing that Pancake is prego again is making him crack. We are going to have to take him to an Avian to see if we can correct this behavior before he eats his wing off!

Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions on how to keep the babies in the cages, how to keep Pancake from laying eggs, and stop Lunchbox from eating himself, I would appreciate it.

Post-it Art

Taking calls from patients can get boring.. Luckily I have like 50 pads of post-it notes to doodle on at work. :P

Snapeeed!

Snapeeed as well... I couldn't help myself.

I doodled this after reading Zombie news. Didn't make sense to me, so I guess I need to be a Zombie.

The end.

kawaii app: Chibi Me for iPad

I remember when I was first living in Korea, I had a little bit of an issue with playing with some of the other kids because I didn't really speak Korean. I remember going over to a girl's house and she was trying to talk to me, but I could only pick out a few of the words that she was saying. After a few minutes her face lit up and she like, HEY, I know what we can do. She pulled out a bunch of notebooks with paper dolls and two pairs of scissors.

I flipped through the books and she had drawn a bunch of clothes and colored them for some paper dolls that her mom had drawn for her. We sat there, all smiles and playing with the paper dolls for hours until it was time for me to go home.

That was one of my first memories of wanting to learn how to draw. I self taught myself how to draw paper dolls and eventually I started learning to draw other things.

This is why I love this Chibi Me app, it reminds me of when I was a little girl and it got me started on learning how to draw.

I've been known to spend a hour playing with this app. The music is pretty cute too.

Doesn't she look like a creepy little girl?

This one is my favorite so far, but I have like 100 of these ss on my ipad. LOL... What can I say, I love feeling like a little kid again!

BAM! Where did my baby birds go??

Yesterday Icarus and Darwin turned 4 weeks. Ponyo turned 4 weeks today, Nugget tomorrow and little Smallfry will be 4 weeks on Monday.

4 weeks.... doesn't seem very long right? So where did my sweet baby birds go? We came home yesterday and it was someone replaced my fuzzy, down-haired babies with adult lovebirds.

They still don't have their peach faces. And I think they are actually really cute like that.

Snapeee!!!

I almost can't tell them apart, but they have some quirky personality traits that I've picked up on.

Darwin will immediately dart for the nearest blanket, pant leg or any opening in your clothing. Once I was laying down and he crawled down my shirt.

Icarus will lay on his belly and just slide around like he's a penguin; I was worried about him, but he was actually the first to fly yesterday, so he seems to be okay.

I have trouble with Ponyo and Nugget...even though they are slightly different colors, I get them mixed up. Out of all the birds they are quite docile and will just sit in whatever spot you put them in.  

My little Smallfry, well, it's easy to tell her apart because she's much smaller then the others. My little runt..when you put her down on the floor she walks around with her neck stretched out and she looks like a little duckling running about. She loves to cuddle against me. So sweet.

So Icarus did two things yesterday, which I think is a first. One, he took a short flight off the bed towards the cage where his parents where. And then second, he managed to get up on a perch.

I'm pretty sure he flew up there, because they haven't really learned how to climb up and down the bars of the cage. I watched him waddle around the perch; he was wobbly and I thought a few times he might fall off and hurt himself...but I guess they need to learn sometime. Besides, Pancake and I have done a decent job of shredding bedding for them. I'll need to keep an eye on Pancake, she's almost a little OCD about paper in the cage.

We are going to have to make/buy some perches for outside the cages so that the babies can get some flight lessons in. I read online that it's good to have them learn to fly before clipping their wings. The only issue I have is the birdie poo. I'll need to find a flight suit online or something.

Good news everybody...

I've been watching a lot of Futurama.

Anyway, the good news is that my bearded boy friend has landed a new job! AND, he might be making enough for me to quit my job! Well, not right away of course...bills, wedding plans.....frakkin' 13 mouths to feed in this animal house....:)

The other sort of good news is that I might be getting a job at a clinic. :) They said they are looking for a LPN, but MAs do the same thing so I might have a chance. Plus it helps that all the nurses in that department want me. ^^

If I get that job then I'll have to take my RN classes at night. Or I'll have to find a weekend job. OR---my favorite option---Dillon can support us and I can just go to school.

I'm excited.

And we needed some good news right about now.....

Insomina Sundays

I have the worse headache ever. The E6000 glue has definitely claimed a couple hundred of my brain cells. I probably shouldn't have blinged out this case in our small office, but I was trying to multi....super multitask. I'm watching the 4400 again and I was also trying to level my Mage on warcraft. Oh and read my new My Little Pony comics.

The weekend is short, gotta cram everything I can in.

I'm pretty proud of how it came out. ^^ I bought most of the cabochons from a girl on Instagram (@eyecandieeecraftsetc) and the crystals and misc pieces from Etsy. I still have enough to make like 20 more cases. But I think I'll need to find another glue before I lose all my brain cells.

****

So, another weekend (and week) has gone by and I haven't written any more chapter on my novel. Oy vey, I blame Mark for the bad review he gave me on my draft. Well, it wasn't the whole draft, just a chapter..and I guess it would be confusing just reading one chapter...ugh, I'm just self conscience.

((I'm being bratty & whiny))

I did start writing a short story tho. I was thinking about my grandma..and about some funny things that happened when I was living with her.

I'm using this as a exercise to get my creative juices flowing. We shall see how far I get.

****

Sundays are absolutely the worst day of the week. For the following reasons (list! Yay!!):

1. It's the end of the weekend. Why hasn't anyone come up with the brilliant plan to make Monday the last day of the weekend? We could also get rid of the Monday Blues this way.

2. In good 'ole Indiana, you can't purchase any alcohol. Not that I drink that much, but this rule makes me want to buy a 24-pack every Sunday. And since I can't I get sad. Very say.

There is also a law that states if person has a puppet show, wire dancing or tumbling act in the state of Indiana and receives money for it, they will be fined $3 under the Act to Prevent Certain Immoral Practices.

I kind of what to start a puppet show act....

3. Sunday means I have I go to work the next day. And I'm really tired talking to patients. I'm
Sorry, I mean, getting yelled at. Low encome clinics are no bueno.

4. Sunday nights I always have a million things going on in my head. Like, did I pay the water bill; what does Zed do when we go to sleep; where did I put my keys; why is my stomach growling; are these retainers keeping my teeth straight; if Dillon whacks me one more time in his sleep I'm going to punch him in the balls.

5. I always forget I have meds that can knock me out..and when I do remember and take it, it's 2am and I struggle to get up on time for work.

You be happy to know I remember at 1am, so I might be ok tomorrow AM.

GIMME A KISS

Spent some time with Baby, not as much as I wanted, but we had some fun. We are working on her laying in her back. She'll let me flip her over, but she has to be holding on to my fingers. Eventually she, going to trust me and just lay there.

****

Oo.. Yay, it's kicking in. I'm about to pass out!

Baby update

I worry that I'm not really being a good mum to little Baby. I need to spend more time with her, but with so many animals needing my attention...she gets left out in the cold. I'm going to have to come up with a schedule for playtime with all my babies...

Any way, Baby is now 6 months old. I didn't notice how big she's gotten until we saw a younger bird at the pet store. I feel so bad when I see the other conures at the pet store now; their feathers are frayed and they have some quirky things they do that makes me think being stuck in a pet store so long has made them crazy.

I need to working on her nippin' and her refusal to listen when we do "step-up" or try to get her to stop doing something she's not suppose to. The little naughty girl has the taste for soda now.. my mistake of leaving a diet coke in the bird room unattended. I came back and she was going nuts over the can. Now when she sees one she MUST HAVE IT. Oy. It's so bad, my little addict.

But I still love her. And she loves her mommy and I time.^^

WIPs

Working on a post for my Peruvian dish recipes from over the weekend. So freakin' easy to make.

I'm not going to lie, I just wanted to post another Snapeee pic. HAHAHAHA..

Photo BOMB! Snapeee!

I MUST STAMP EVERYTHING >:P

I know Snapeee has been around a while, but I have just discovered how much fun it is to puri stamp photos. It just makes them so much more interesting and pretty. Ugly naked baby bird? Stamp, stamp, stamp, KAWAII!!!

Conure eating breakfast? Bleh, Stamp it up and KAWAII!!

 

Is your kitty sad? Tired of being an indoor kitty?? Stamp and voilà! Day dreaming kitty.

Having a bad case of the Monday blues? Want to get that point across. ANGRY STAMP!!

Yeaah, I was having way too much fun. :P

I'm graduating! Random I-just-woke-up-babble

Guess what I found out yesterday? I graduate this weekend? Yay me, boo my school for being so vague on details. Of course I could have been more proactive and asked about it.

I should be excited, but I'm not. I'll have a Associates in Health Science now, but I wish it was my BA. You know if I had taken the actual RN classes be more excited. Oy, it's gonna be another 2 yrs of school before I'm an RN. And then BSN....at this rate I'll be in school forever before I'm a NP.

Bitch bitch bitch. Shoulda, coulda, woulda right? Lol. Yeah, I should have gone to nursing school with I was at PUC.

Okee, maybe I'm a little excited.

Now I just need to find a job. I was talking to some of the MAs and LPNs @ work and I'm so surprised to find that they get paid the same. They are both AS degrees, and both do the same things, but I thought LPNs was a higher degree than MAs. Just thinking out loud..it doesn't matter, I just want to find a job. :)

Universe, I need a high paying job where I only have to work weekends so I can go to my nursing classes during the week days. I know you can find me something, love Julia.

Heheh. Peace!

Craft: Duct Tape tri-fold wallet

I'm finally getting use to not having to write 6 papers for school on the weekends. I've been filling my social calendar and also crafting things. Last weekend was woodworking. And this (last----is that right?) weekend was duct tape wallets.

I think I watched like 20 YouTube videos on how to make duct tape wallets. This was my first attempt at a nice tri-fold design.




I think it came out pretty nice! I've already started on another one with v-pockets & a little cleaner design. AND I have 2 order requests for friends. ^^




This weekend I'll be crafting a duct tape clutch. Or maybe a case for my Kindle.

WIP: book writing is fun..

...but difficult when you are terrible at spelling and proper grammar. But I've had this story in my head and I have tons of free time now.

Here's a snippet if what I'm working on:

Why should I care anymore? It's not like it matters, this proves that eventually all humans will become a shadow of themselves. There's nothing that can save them. There's no reason for me to seek them out again.

Violet whimpers loudly as she watched Jordan rise from the ground and stagger towards Brenda's lifeless body. He cocks his head to the side, and for a brief moment Violet thought he hadn't turned. The hairs on her back stood straight up when Jordan threw his head back, let out a deep, hungry growl, and then ripped into Brenda's beautiful face.

Maybe I should look for that pack of wild dogs. I could join them, run wild, and free of humans for the rest of this miserable life.

She glares down at the rotting biters, all of them gorging themselves on her dead companions. The biters are unmoved by the blazing fire that is now consuming them.

Disgusting, vile creatures. Violet lifts her head to the dark, smoke filled sky and howls her promise:

For as long as I live on this damned planet, I will never trust my heart to another human being.

Rambling: First round done! Break time! Err, I think.

I'm writing this quickie post on the BlogPress app and I'm annoyed that the app doesn't allow you to turn horizontal. I know #firstworldproblems, but its really annoying!

So I'm done with my MA program! I'm not sure when I take the certification test and the TEAS for nursing school... but I'm taking this week off to goof off.

And by goof off I mean scrub the house, pack up summer clothes, clean out the fridge, and rake up leaves. And of course find time to catch up on anime, TV shows, an movies...

....and my crafting: blinging out phone cases, paper art, sketching, digital comics for Z-bot.

...did I mention I am writing a ebook?

It's only been 5 days since the end of classes and I feel like I have less time when I was working 2 jobs, going to practicum, and classes. I always do this to myself..I just can't be still.

I need to take up meditation again to quiet myself. Or drugs, I could take drugs. :P

Baby conure, sketching again, school...

Jedi-Knight-bird!

It's been almost a month since we adopted Baby, she's such a fun little baby bird. A little bit of a nibbler, but we are working on trying to get her to stop that. If you follow me on InstaGram I'm sure you saw the photo of her biting my eye lid. Yeah, totally bad idea; she flipped my eyelid inside out! LOL.

 I've been sketching again, I am going to do a whole series of chicks and origami. ^^ I'm pretty happy about how this turned out. I might do a digital art so that I can play with some colors. I wish I had time to paint again. I totally see some watercolor splashes.... 

 
GUESS WHAT!???!?!? I have two weeks left of school! Then it's mini break time.. and then study for TEAS, apply for nursing school. Oy, I'm not looking forward to that. But, I am looking forwarded to a few months with no school! I just need to hang on for two mo' weeks. 

((i can do it, i can do it, i can do it, i can do it....))

The universe is limitless

I've been doing a lot of reading on metaphysics and how you can ask the universe for something and if you put positive energy into that request it will happen. Sounds like the Secret or witchcraft, which I do believe in, but I've always believed that whatever you throw out, you'll get it back. So if you throw negativity to the universe, you'll get it back..sometimes 10 fold.

I love this quote from some of my reading: We can ask for and create anything and everything we want, and there is still enough left over for everyone else.

So dear universe, Goddess, God, Blessed Being..I'm sending out a request for good luck for my family. My sister, nephew, my mother-in-law, my mom and I need some good luck in our lives.

Blessed be.

Pinterest crafts

I'm so obsessed with Pinterest right now. I'm finding a ton of DIY craft and home improvement things that I want to try to do at least one or two a month. Maybe one or two a week...school is almost done so I should have a lot more time.

I'll have to find an easy one for this weekend and I'll post it here. It'll be a "Pinterest-a-day" post. Or week.. gosh, I'm such a non-commitment type person. LOL.

You can follow me on Pinterest ^__^

stupid me

I read a few more old blog posts. Wow. No seriously, WOW. I sounded like a love sick puppy about every guy that say hi to me. Oy vey, I was really looking for love desperately. That's what happens to abused women!

I think I'll avoid that blog for a while; I started feeling ill. Must be stupiditis.

Supah old posts

I'm going through my old blog posts and as I'm reading them it's like I'm reading into the life of someone else. I have changed so much--for the better of course.

This post was from May 2005. A friend had sent me a looking for love ad:

**************************************

YOU: ideally: 22-36; timeless beauty (in/out/sideways/birdseye view); witty and wild; can stifle the Krakatoic rumblings of your womb for 5 years or can do without the fucking monsters altogether; don't need Google to follow me; creative; wants to see 100+ countries; ticklish; can laugh at yourself; jaded but not cynical; need help with your G-spot; spend less than 1/8 of your life on a fucking cell phone; makes more than reservations for dinner; your booty's not so big as to warrant its own zipcode but I don't want one of those boney ass bitches neither; you're willing to be tattooed; you'll try anything once -- and twice if I tell you it's healthy; you know the wealth of a person has little to do with money; passionate; mysterious; have childlike curiosity; enjoy refreshing honesty; are a muse and enjoy reading poetry in bed; walk upright; know at least 18 slang phrases for sex; don't smoke(near me at least); know the sexiest and most erotic thing about any man is his hot, throbbing brain

The commutes a bitch, but it's worth it... 

**************************************

I hope this guy found his soulmate!

oy. broke. ass. bitch.

seriously though, it's times like this when i really miss my 60k/yr job. SIGH. fml..but i have hope that things will work out.. school will work out... and if it doesn't, i'll just win the 400 million power ball.

HAHA. wishful thinking.

the only good thing going on in my life is that my hair is looking pretty great lately. i'm hoping this stress i'm under doesn't make it fall out!!

dillon is lucky that i love him oh so much, cuz i'm coming to the point where a sugar daddy is looking good. OH hay... maybe i can get him to get a sugar momma to take care of us! oy, too extreme? yeah.. it's the desperation talkin'.

/wrist

oh goddess of money, hear my prayer. i needs monies now. .____.

Conure: Baby

I know I call the baby Louie in this video, but we were doing a trial run on names. We have settled on Baby since that's all that I call him/her. We are still conflicted with if we want to go with a boy or girl...

Any way, here's the first video I made of Baby. I'm totally smitten with this cutie pie..

Angry Birds Red Bird Bunting Costume Baby (Google Affiliate Ad)

Oh lil birdie!!

We have a new addition to our growing family!! A baby Green Cheek Conure. ^^




We saw her at the pet store on Saturday and just fell in love with her. She was trying to get to my hand through the glass. And while I'm sure she did that with every passerby, I like to think she really wanted to come home with me.




She is about 4 months; her hatch date was in March. I want to thank whoever hand fed her because she's so good being held. She's so sweet and yes, I might be crazy saying this, but she is like a little baby. She likes to snuggle and kiss me, play with toys.




I love all my animal children, but I think I have a favorite right now. Shhh, don't tell Penelope!!

This was a fun little practice. I was working on eyes and anime style drawing. ^^ I'll have to do more of these.

Warcraft drawing DONE

My friend didn't like the original hair that I put on her so I had to change it.. :( I'll just have to use the hair on another character. Don't you love the kitty pet? hehehe...

Warcraft Huntard (hehe) update

I'm trying to get this one done, but I've so busy with school work :( So far I've only completed the shoulder the the guild tabard...

 

I need to fix the tabard AND find out what the bottom actually looks like. I'm so sad, the guildie that wanted this picture done doesn't like the hair... so I'm going to have to change it. I think I'll save this head tho and use it for another character.

Making Comics: Storytelling Se (Google Affiliate Ad) 

 

Update...

yay! I completed the birthday comic series for Lil Z-bot! Z and Miss Hillaire (inspirations for Lil Z-bot and Rude Rudy) saw the website today and gave it their stamp of approval. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy...and makes me want to do more! ^^ I promised Z that I would make more for him. ^__^

Now time for some rest... NOT! Well sort of..I need to start concentrating on school since this is my last quarter. I started my practicum at an urgent care site and I LOVE IT. I was really scared the first day, but now I'm starting to get a hang of things. ^__^

But for my downtime, (or when I don't want to do school work time) I'm going to work one some smaller Lil Z-bot comics and some "commissioned" requests. I say "commissioned" because I probably won't charge them. MEH, what are friends for. I take donations though!! *cough cough, hint hint*

Here's what I'm working on now. A night elf huntard..I mean hunter. :P My little warlock chibi was my first attempt, this second attempt is coming along nicely...

Yes yes, she is indeed naked (hence why I didn't post the full pic), but I'm still working on designing the gear. AND, my friend still needs to send me screenshots of his toon and his huntard's (sorry! I can't help it!) pet kitty. So far I'm pleased with what I've line out so far. The hair is from my chibi app, I just copied one of the styles. I like the colors I used so far, but we'll have to see when I draw out the gear. ^^

Well, it's time for me to get my butt to bed.. work, school, practicum, lil z-bot, drawing.... yeah, I need some sleep!!

Little Warcraft Chibis!!!!

I know, not exactly chibi characters, but still small anime looking, right? I was bored yesterday at work and a little burnt out with Lil Z-bot sketching.

And I thought, hey, I should upload and make a clean lineart. Dillon helped me with the colors..warlocks look good in greens and purples. Charnos even looks cute ^^ I figured a voidwalker is easier than drawing a imp.

I'm thinking about making one for all the people in my guild. Wouldn't that be cute? I'll start with Dillon's little gnome. Hehehe..

I want to be...EVERYTHING

I know I’m not the first person to wonder what they are going to do when they grow up. I might be a little old to still be thinking that way, but I always think of myself as a forever child. I think it’s because of the trauma I went through growing up; I feel like I lost my childhood. I go through periods of knowing what I want to do with my life…I want to be a nurse! I want to be a cartoonist! I want to be a stay at home mom (4-legged kids)! I want, I want, I want, I want!!!

And then there are the periods where I just want to do nothing. I just want to crawl into bed and shut my eyes and sleep until forever.

Or at least until one of the things I want to do magically appears.

 I go to sleep one night and BAM!! I’m a nurse. No studying, no exams, no waiting 2 years…

Or I go to sleep one night and BAM!!! Lil Z-bot and friends is a popular animated series, comic book…t-shirts, mugs, plushes, and figurines. Pixar taps us to make a full featured film. 21-Century Fox wants to make a live action movie. Disney wants to make a Z-botLAND inside Disneyland. Khols wants to make a line of children clothes with the Lil Z-bot characters.

Sigh. Yeah, after writing this blog post, I’m still no closer to knowing what I want to do. The search continues.

oh! it's my birthday....

HAHAHAHA.. amazing how stress and life worries make you forget things....

....that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Ain't too proud to beg

Seriously, I am feeling so overwhelmed. I was excited about my last quarter of school a few weeks ago, but not so much now. After all the issues that have been coming up, money, car problems and the worry of how am I suppose to do 160 hours of externship in 12 weeks when I work full time.... OY.

I just want to shut down a cry.

Or sleep till forever. :|

So yeah, I ain't too proud to beg..so I'm begging for one of the three miracles to happen:

1. I win the lottery. The only problem is, I don't even have a freakin' dollar to spend on a lottery ticket. I think, oh yes, I can spare a dollar for a ticket.. no, I can't.. that dollar can go into my gas tank.... *cry*
2. I get a bah-zillion page views on my blogs for both this blog and my Lil Z-bot site. Then I can finish up school AND help my sister pay for her legal fees (another story.........).
3. My Go Fund Me attracts enough donors that are willing to help me fund my last quarter of school. Perks would be that I exceed my goal and I can still help my sister.

SIGH.

I don't know...I just don't know. I hope some good luck comes my way.

Epic dream

Dillon and I are standing on a platform that is on top of a cliff. The cliff overlooks the beach and the Pacific Ocean. I get the feeling we are standing on a cliff in Big Sur, California.

All of a sudden a great, big glacier falls from the sky. It's falling into a spot in the ocean a couple of miles from the beach. Dillon is trying to explain to me all the scientific reasons why this could never happen. Of course when he goes into his rants it just sounds like jibberish to me.

While I'm half listening to him and half in awe of the glacier falling into the ocean..now in serious slow motion..I notice that there are little people running around on the sand dunes. I squint my eyes to see who they are, but suddenly Dillon starts shouting and pointing towards the ocean.

I look towards the glacier (still falling into the ocean in slow-mo) and see that there's a pod of dolphins dancing near the vortex that has appeared to swallow the glacier. Dillon starts running down the stairs on the side of the cliff that leads to the sand dunes yelling, "QUICK! We must save the dolphins!"

We run down the stairs and when we get to the sand dunes I realize the little people on the dunes are actually Sabina and all her childhood friends. Heather, Diva, Laura...and a bunch of her other friends are there. They are all six years old, odd, I know..since all her friends are actually different ages, and are not currently six years old...but in my dream they are. They are all running around the sand dunes screaming, "QUICK! Help us save the monkeys!!!" I see that they were all chasing after monkeys.

Dillon shouts, "NO! The dolphins!!"

I shout, " NO! We must save the bunnies!!"

Suddenly there's hundreds of bunnies hopping around the dune and I dive into one of the rabbit holes to save one. Save from what..? I have no idea.

Dillon is frantically trying to get my attention so I turn to look at the vortex that's sucking the glacier in slow-mo. I see that a chorus of unicorns have joined the dolphins and are dancing with them. Rainbows and butterflies and flying cupcakes appear all around them.

I look back at the glacier and I see it is gone and in its place is a giant circle of foam. The vortex is now just moving in slow-mo. Six-year old Sabina is holding 5 monkeys, Dillon is speaking jibberish again, and the bunnies have encircled me. They are joining hands and singing a song about dolphins and unicorns.

I know what you are thinking..what the hell is all that suppose to mean?? Well, the moral of the story, from what I gather..is, never, never, ever take your sleeping pills with pain meds and emergen-C.

update, school, work....just a blog post

I have two weeks left of this quarter to go and I'm suppose to start my externship at the end of June. The problem is that I work two jobs and I can't afford to not work. So when do I do my externship? See this is the problem with me, I NEVER ever finish anything. I didn't finish college the first go, never finish any of the TV series I watch...I think I need to watch the last episode of at least 5 shows. I go on a diet or a "lifestyle" change and that never seems to pan out.. UGH. Why am I like that?

No, I need to change my way of thinking. I keep saying "I HAVE to.." I need to change that to "I WANT to..."

Which brings me to the project my sister and I are working on, lil Z-bot. That little character was inspired by my nephew and now we are trying to make something out of it. I am like the most insecure person and I feel like things that I create and find amusing might not be what other people like. But whatever, the bottom line is that this little project is helping me stay a little less crazy and I'm doing this for Sabina and little Z. ^__^

Oy vey, I guess I should get back to work. Yup it's a Saturday.. but the good news is that I get to work from home and I'm making more an hour than my regular job. YER..momma needs some new shoes.

No really.. I do need new shoes. >.<

this little guy was inspired by my nephew, azaiah. why? because lately i've wished that he had armor and he could fly away and not deal with the pain he's had the past couple of months. i made this little comic for his upcoming 7th birthday. 

i'm going to do a few more for him. this was a really fun project! and i got a cool wacom tablet & pen in the process! :P
