I AM A BANANA!

GRRRR!

Ups & Downs

Things that made life worth living today...

• Early morning conversations with good friends
• Liberation from Zee Barrel
• Outtakes (continued below)
  
• Mexican con Madre, and accidentally shooting cerveza all over her. Why can't I ever remember that pushing a lime into a cerveza and covering it with my thumb only creates carbonation?
• Iced Americano with raw sugar
• Taking naps in the car
• Running in the park
• Ordering secret gifts for awesome friends
• The hardy hibiscuses that are growing outside my window
  
  
  

Things I could have done without...

• Realizing, much like Dave did, that I drink too much, smoke too much, eat too much... too much. *takes a bow* Running to the near point of exhaustion was an excellent punctuation to this statement.
• Once again finding that some animal, and I'm not pointing any fingers here, but part of me thinks it was black... (oh that sounded racist. Allow me to explain. I live in a house with 6 black cats, 1 orange cat, 2 white cats, a ferret, and a little adorable dog. So, chances are good that the animal that did this was black.) ...peed all over my book bag. That is the second book bag of mine to be micturated upon by an animal. Don't even get me started on the pillows that have been ruined.
  

Outtakes (continued from above)

Today I came across outtakes from one of my favorite television shows of all time, Life On Mars. I'm talking about the original BBC version, not that piece of shite American bull. After seeing this it made me think of my favorite actors of all time. So, I'm gonna list them off for you. Now, these are all I can think of right now, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple. What I'd like you, the reader, to do is why you are reading down my list, which is in no particular order, I want you to try and think about who I am, and then maybe you'll see where I get it. If you don't know me, then think about these actors and then try and compose an amalgamation of them. You may very well have a pretty good basis of who I am then.

Bruce Campbell
David Tennant
Jeffrey Donovan
Charlie Sheen
Emilio Estevez
Groucho Marx
Bill Murray
Cary Elwes

And now for your viewing pleasure here are the outtakes from Life On Mars. Bon Appetit!

Well, hello there.

I believe it's time for me to dust out the cobwebs, and get to writing again. Even if it isn't much. I needs me to get some practicin' done, dawgs!

So, I've decided that I'm going to try and spit out a few words about whatever once a day.

Today, I will talk about some things that have been happening lately.

Well, I'm back in Springfield, and have been for a few months. It's been utter hell here. This town is soul-crushing, and equipped with a very low glass ceiling. I've been working my ass off to make it up to Chicago to go to school for animation. I'm bound and determined to show the world the awe-inspiring visions in my head that make me laugh, make me cry, scare me, amuse me, and warm my heart. I've had some offsets on my path to Chicago, but I'm not going to give up. The world needs to see what I have to offer for them, so in the meantime I'm teaching myself all I can with the books that I have at my disposal about animation, story writing, drawing, adobe illustrator and photoshop, and flash. On top of that I'm taking in some other light reading such as Lamb, Sherlock Holmes, Downtown Owl, and Metamorphasis.

I've been doing a lot of heavy reading lately, and less gaming. I recently finished Buddhism: Plain & Simple by Steve Hagen which was recommended to me by a good friend. I must say, I've gleamed quite a bit from that book. It's really made me listen and look at my mind, behavior, and actions. It's made me observe and think more about myself before acting or reacting to situations. It's given me a calmer output and insightful look on life.

Well, I'll write more later. I'm going to head to the park and do some reading before it gets too dark, and I miss out on some of this great weather.
