Liz: "Isn't it nice to have animals in your room to talk to?"

Me: "Yes. It helps with my crippling, unbearable loneliness!"

Current Mood: not that lonely, don't worry

I got birds!



Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis. :))))))

My hard drive is dead. Data recovery begins on Friday, don't know how long it'll take or if I'll get all my files back. Did I back up? Of course I didn't. It's just stressful having to wait and not being able to do anything about it.

Trying to reinstall my cintiq. It's a little bit more trouble than its worth but I'm very used to it by now, and I don't have my plain old tablet anymore anyways. There's just so much goddamn setup and it really reduces mobility. I don't even know if I draw any better on it. Probably I do, I remember freaking out over the difference when I first tried one. but blegh, it's kind of a pain.

I had a little bit of heartbreak over the past month but y'know, shit happens. We're still good friends and it probably happened in the best circumstances possible.

When I get back to providence I'm getting two of these and naming them Dean and Jerry. They're much pinker and rosier in real life, which I like better. (red factor canaries)

true facts

"Jimboy, y'all ever had a real col' Georgia-style mint julep?"

This is why I love Star Trek, and mostly McCoy.

A sketch of Lyle and Moira from 5OL, which I just love to death. I want to ink and color this in p-shop, but I have finals now. So when this may happen, I cannot say.



Lyle is my serious favorite, guys. I want Woody Harrelson to age backwards somehow and play him in the movie.

I've been working a lot in wax pastel lately, and that means working on pieces of masonite way too big for my scanner. I don't have a good camera, but I decided to take some (shitty) pictures anyway.
( enjoy )


I can guarantee you that all of these things look about a million times better in real life, because they would pretty much have to.

Here's the first paragraph of a very short story I'm working on.

"In high school Jon adopted a Siamese and named it Cat Stevens, which was just about the cleverest idea he would ever have. Soon after, for the first time, he found himself with his girlfriend in his bedroom with the door locked.
In college he had a dark Italian Greyhound named Lou Reed, who was hit by a taxi in his second year. The chick Jon had been screwing got back together with her boyfriend after that, but it was okay because brooding over the death of a dog worked really well with sorority sisters. And back when he was still living in his first apartment, a pair of mackerel tabbies named Simon and Garfunkel granted him the instant respect of a woman who would eventually give him the best head of his life."
