( A Boring Story of Why The First Bass Left Me. :[ )
Then, he's all, "I have a few gift cards left over from when I got my guitar~ Do you want a new one for Xmas?"
I'm like, "D: <3333 YEESSS!" on the inside. But just say, "Okay, sure." Like, that's fucking expensive much and he didn't need to buy for Xmas, whatever. I figured he'd forget or make it an outing later on. Good, good.
BUT, NO! TWO HOURS LATER, HE'S AT THE HOUSE WITH MY BRAND NEW (BLACK) COMPACT BASS! EE! :D <33 Like, the compact part makes me so happy because wtf, my hands couldn't do the last neck. :[ Too small and bony, but this is perfect. Plus, it came with an amp, digi tuner, straps, tuner forks, a box of air~! <3 The hour before and after work was me and him fiddling it with it. After my rice, the next hour will be me fiddling with it (no one's home so I can use the amparoo all I want. >D).
I'm happy and very smitten right now. <3

Girls Aloud - Grafitti My Soul |

Thanksgiving was hilarious, the latter half was. I was asleep for the first time, due to me waking up five minutes prior to us leaving. I was hardcore zombie!mode.
So. My family has a lovely thing where we utterly trash-talk all the stupidity of the rest of the family after they leave. We are complete gossip-hounds, which is why I love our family get-togethers. I live for them, because really? The rest of the family is stupid and annoying and that's how we keep from screaming at them. Just trash-talk, a lot.
This time topics included the usual:
( We're totally dicks. <3 )
Black Friday was... horrible and not as bad as I thought. Where I got there, the list to get in has stretched to the another parking lot and people were parking across the street and down the road. It was absolute chaos. Someone almost started a fight with one of the employees who was trying to enter the store. O_O;
I, thankfully, got to ring in RZone so it wasn't bad. I didn't stop ringing for the nine hours I was working, but the customers were nice in there, alike the cashiers outside who had to deal with brawls and bitchiness. W00t. Totally lucked out.
Then, I got home, ate waffles, passed out until two and searched for Klaus/Ben fiction, or any Ben fiction. I'm in an Umbrella Academy mood, helps with the recovery of Black Friday. :]
It was a good day, good day today.

Tim was originally an octopus until I realized I have no frickin' clue how an octopus would look walking on its tentacles. I was also too lazy to look, thus space jellyfish named Tim. The girl is Lubomír, related to Szczesny kind-of. Complicated, under-developed idea I'll axe soon enough but I wanted to draw her today. She stole Szczesny's parka of doom.
I've been slowly falling in love with lawnmowerpants' art style and wanted to fool around with it today. This is the product, Lubomír and Tim. Tim will soon be replaced with Holly. Szczesny will have Elvis. I wanna draw Elvis again, damn. :/

Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight Tonight |

"With iron bolt and chain
Firm-closed the gates of Janus shall remain.
Within, Furor, high reclined
On horrid arms, unheeded in the fane,
Bound with a hundred brazen knots behind,
And grim with bloody mouth, his grisly teeth shall grind."
-Aeneid; Book I
Is the Roman Furor male or female? I always thought male, but the Greek counterpart is female... So... IDK? I translated it male, as did Gorman probably but I'm forgetting the actual Latin and can't remember of "his" is actual translation or artistic licensing. Fuck interchanging pronouns.

For anyone who ever played pokemon, especially the original. ;]
Up to 7k on Nanowrimo, not bad for playing video games in between. I'm on a pokemon kick. D:
WAIT! SPEAKING ON POKEMON KICK! :D
So, Gold & Silver was remade and is being released in the Americas sometime in spring. Gold & Silver is my absolute favorite pokemon version, absolute. With every new game, every remake, I just lament how it wouldn't be like Gold & Silver. So, needless to say. I was ...psychotically happy? Yeah, I was happy.
...and fucking impatience. Screw waiting 'til Spring! BRING ON THE ROMS! <3
And, for playing an hour or so, let me say.
AMAZING. O: <3
Your lead Pokemon actually follows you around like Pikachu did in Yellow and it's any of the 493 that can follow you! :D Aron! Aron! Aron! Aron! Slowpoke? O: <3 The menu is all touch-screen instead of START BUTTON, which I love (click, click, click!) and I guess you can permanently turn on the Running Shoes. I can't figure out how to click that option yet, but Elm hinted I could.
They kept Kanto (my biggest worry). The main male is the cutest thing ever and the main female will haunt my dreams until the end of time. Seriously, designers? What. The. Fuck. Kris was cute. Why didn't you redesign Kris a bit? No. I don't know. I kept thinking she's going to pull out an axe and butcher me. I think it's the bow, or socks. D:
Silver's redesign is sweet though, and apparently Giovanni's son. It explains so so much. XD
Like, god. I can't wait for this game. I'm going to dance around like a loon and possibly push over kids to be the first to get it. :D <3
( Meh. Something from Nanowrimo. All of it is so plain so far. HATE. HATE. D: )

That's it. I'm diseased. The arm the hurt now has a lovely patch-rash on it. At first, it was just painful skin but the rash popped up, on that one arm. I poked it but it never spreads around to, say my face or other arm or torso or anything. Just that one arm. One day, there's a patch on skin that hurts, next day it's a infected rash area. Not to mention, it hurts to make a fist and not because one of my fingers has such rash on it. I can do it weakly but only weakly and slowly. My arm's all "TENSE!" and I just wince a lot trying to keep it active.
Mom's all, "D:" looking at it (the rash) and Dad was like, ">:/" when I told me. So I think he's getting me over the Doctor's today or tomorrow.
I hope I have leprosy.
EDIT: I don't have leprosy, damn.
GUESS WHAT I DO HAVE THOUGH? :D
Shingles.
That fuck-ass nasty chickenpox left-over. >:/ Explains everything, Doctor gave me meds and I'm quarantined to home until Monday. DAMN YOU, SHINGLES, DAMN YOU! D:

Billy the Kid and Socrates are BFFs in my mind again. :3 Oh, how I love commentaries, and Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
EDIT: There is one down side to reading Phonogram is the amount of music to find afterwards. XD But, oh. I love it so. <3

I have a problem with my little finger. Technically it extends up my arm too, but the pinkie is the thing I've noticed today that. It's numb yet it hurts, tingles, stings. It feels like something burned my skin, or I skinned it. I don't know. It's hard to describe but it's been this way for a week now. It bothers me.
So I was thinking today that maybe it was carpal tunnel, but that effects "not the little finger" so fuck. It's not that. If it effects the little finger, it's the Ulnar Nerve. There's something called the Ulnar Nerve Entrapment, and it might be that (sounds kind-of close), plus I'm doing all the 'DON'T DO THIS!' constantly. I'll try to stop and use same exercises to see if it improves.
This is mostly a note to myself in case I forgot to do it:
HEY! WASTED MUSCLES CAN'T BE REPAIRED AND DO YOU WANT WASTED PINKIE MUSCLES? OF COURSE NOT! DO THE DAMN EXERCISES, YOU FUCKER! D:<
(I'm so nice to myself. :3 But, seriously, Gabe. Do them, please?)

Queen - The Show Must Go On |

I found during a hunt for old rpg examples, and damnit. I still love this, oddities aside. I also miss writing Frankie and this Dick & Jane style of writing.
( Sort-of NSFW, but not really. Sort-of MA, but not really. :/ )
EDIT: La. My computer thinks ketamine is a misspelling of Frankie. XD So awesome, so grand.

The Kinks - Plastic Man |
] |
Have you ever been cruising the RPG circuit, seen an audition of a character you like and just had to apply yourself because you feel that someone is doing the character injustice? x: Because that's what I'm doing and I feel really dickerish about (because, well, it is a dick move). The site encourages multiple people to apply for positions so I shouldn't feel so bad. Just...
It's a modern!Romeo and Juliet forum. Whatever but I was bored so I was all, "Oh! I wonder if Benvolio is taken because I love Benvolio. <3" and the only application there is just... not him, in my opinion? It uses the work skanks. Benvolio wouldn't use that word. I'd image he still wouldn't like skanks but he'd use a different word, like 'promiscuous girls'... or, 'them ladies of the night'.
Granted, I couldn't play him any better. Modern!Benvolio to me would be an anxiety-ridden saint, which is pretty much how I pictured the real!Benvolio. He's like the guy who re-enters after the cult drinks spiked punch. "Fuuuuuck. -_-;;"
Yeeeah. I really just don't want her to getting it. :/ Yes, I know. I'm a horrible person. Now, back to work.

The Clash - Train in Vain |
] |
The first snow also resulted in the first power-out. It lasted 30 minutes and had me, Will and Butters piled in the living room with knives and bats, surveying the area outside for zombies and tripods. We are nothing but prepared!
It took an additional 30 minutes to get cable/internet back. Screw you, storm! Actually, meh. It was nice, hanging around without a split mind. I just read Phonogram to pass the time. Which asks the questions, are all the goddesses goddesses or are there gods too?
EDIT: Answered. Yes, there are. Thank you, ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) bremxjones ! I only feel vaguely foolish now. xD
A good note to self to re-read about asking those pesky already-answered questions. :]
(If I had to pick a patron saint to alter my new personality around though, it would be Neutral Milk Hotel and On Avery Island. This remains a yes, like always.)

Arrggh!
I'm like thirty pages from the end of Nick and Norah and I DON'T WANT IT TO END! D: It's so good. Like, I really liked the movie but the book blows in out of the fucking water. It's not even the same plot.
( Book Ramble, and I mean Ramble. )
Boo. It ended. :[ I need something new to read again. Damn. I missed reading.

Oh, hey. More prompts, except not. I just like the phrase 'his kisses were lazy'.
