Final Total:

If you wish to post this in your journal, it's been requested that you title it I'm afraid of __ out of 75 common fears.

If you get more than 30, I strongly recommend some counseling.
If you get more than 20, you’re paranoid.
If you get 10-20, you are normal.

Yes... I am afraid.

Thanks for everything, Berkley.

Financially speaking...

Which movie director(s) need to be permanently unemployed?

I already know which two off the bat.

Gimme your input.

Man... I tell you... October and November are looking
mighty good right about now.

Yes, I'm safe at home. Thank you for the nice
thoughts, friends.

After the drama with Hurricane Rita, I took no
chances and hid my art in the nearest
old car on the farm area ASAP PDQ while
my family was away.

Taking NO chances.

---

UPDATE

---

Folks...

I'm gonna be gone for some time. I blame Gustav.

Mandatory evacuation of the Texas coasts had already begun,
and I have to haul ass at 6am Sunday morning. I had already
stashed my morgue (past art) in a place only know of, and busy
placing my spare HDD in storage. Taking NO chances.

I know that sooner or later I have to run again from another
hurricane, but at least I got my stuff stored safely.

See you folks soon.

;)

Got tired of last post, so I bumped it.

Of all the goddamned nerve!

You remember the BS about FA about my
tit pics started by Oren Otter and Draco Dei?

Well, it turns out that son-of-a-bitch Draco Dei
was faving the pics that were clean... I mean
that was really hypocritical of him.

If you had seen his gallery of favorites on FA, it
is chock full of so much furry porn that it would
make ZigZag proud.

That would make me wanna go all 'Soup Nazi'
on that bastard for the shit that happened in the
first quarter. Thing is... I had the motherfucking
liar Oren Otter and that hypocritical Draco Dei
BLOCKED after the uproar over my Mardi Gras
pics and the fans that supported my keeping them
on FA. Dragon of God, my ass!

Should I pull my pics there and post them here
or should I pull my pics there and repost them?

... going to end it at #300.

*Insert the Sparta jokes, folks*

... why I never DL-ed AIM.

Here's why I never did, and why I was lucky.


Better save your texts, delete your old AIM,
run your Ad-Aware and whatever AV software,
and get a fresh AIM.

Truth be told...

... it was http://www.crittersonline.org/february2003.gif by  peterabnny
that inspired me to draw those Mardi Gras pics a while back.

Don't worry... art will be coming soon.

... trying to end the series, "A Roo'd Awakening is a lot
HARDER than it seems!

Especially for the plot in mind I have for
all of the characters.

I still have to contend with drawing those to whom
I had promised a cameo as the guests to witness
this.

I won't lie to you... I had parts and pages drawn before-
hand, but I still need to make the rest of it as well.

With that aside... it's back to the salt mines.

This happened this afternoon while I was
heading off to get a couple AC adapters
in town...

I was passing by the apartments 1:58pm
when this blue car was speeding by. I was
listening to some music as I was walking
along. This fucked-up crack-headed son-of-
a-bitch passenger sticks his
head out out a bit, and says something, but
surprisingly, it was mostly drowned out by the
music selection playing on my MuVo.

But I distinctly heard this goddamned waste-of-
ovum-and-jizz bastard say: "Quit walking".

That'll be the fuckin' day, dickhead! The day when
either one to four things happen:

·I wind up debilitated by rheumatoid arthritis
·I get a car or bike
·I get a lift with someone
·Public transportation gets put into the town I live in.

(The last part: Yeah... right.)

For the most part, that prick riding shotgun
would be up Shit Creek if his pal's car was
broken down when he needed to get from
Point A to Point B. Even worse when his homey
decides to hit Mr. No-Job up for gas money!
Yes, I had to shell out bucks to get a lift every
now and then, but when there was no one around
to take me to town, how do I get around?

You guessed it.

So, Mr. Ass-hat riding shotgun... enjoy the ride
while you still can. You'll know the literal meaning
to the phrase "to walk a mile in another man's shoes"
soon enough... prick.

Adios.

My friends...

It is with deep regret to say that I had lost
my grandmother on my father's side recently...

I am at a total loss that she passed away.

My sister, despite her own behavior, was
heartbroken. She wanted to return to her
for a visit beforehand.

I don't know what to say about it, either...

I'm just stunned about it.

I ain't giving' up.

I ain't giving up for anybody.

I will finish drawing the series, A Roo'd Awakening,
until #250. Then things are gonna be different
from then on.

But I won't give up, regardless.

Okay...

After reading waynewill's journal and thinking long and hard about somethings,
I decided to post a Bottom Ten Countdown of my own.

And here we go...


#10- Commercials cutting in while your fave song is playing, whether it's on the radio or the frigging' Muzak.

Yes... they play good 80s music on it, no more 'elevator music'.

#9- Falling asleep at the keyboard, but being unable to fall asleep in bed.

Doesn't that fuck things up for you?

And here's another...

#8- Being summoned by folks when YOU are at your most busiest.

#7- Either #8 or #9 of these happening during an RP on a IRC/MU*/IM, WoW or SL.

That's when you really get fucked up.


#6- Itching.

*groan*

#5- Creative bankruptcy or zero-inspiration.

*grumble*

#4- Any program that requires Windows XP when you have Win98SE.

Don't worry... gonna fix THAT problem real soon.

#3- Headaches.

'Nuff said.


#2-Office/workplace politics.

I mean... do people SERIOUSLY NEED that goddamned shit when they get
out of bed, finished their morning commute, and try to work for a living?! That probably
explains the job-related shootings at those places. Bad enough that have to take guff from
the boss and try to eke out a living, worrying about the umpteen number of bills you have
to pay. What is not needed is the motherfuckers, delusional-self-appointed-boss-wannabes,
and punk-assed bitches that try to throw the ton of monkey-wrenches into you plans so they
can laugh at your expense. Pretty much says it all, doesn't it?


And the #1 on the Bottom Ten Countdown is... Double-standards.

Peace out.

A meme I borrowed from  china-kitty


1. Are you single or taken?
Single.

2. Chocolate or flowers?
You can't eat flowers... except for rose petals and violets.

3. Will you do anything special for Valentines Day?
Not really.

4.Do you like anyone?
That'd be telling.

5. Were you dating anyone last Valentines?
No.

6. What would be your dream Valentines date?
If I can think of one, I'd tell you.

7. Do you make a big deal about Valentines?
Yes... too busy bitchin' about it.

8. Have you ever had a secret admirer?
Nope.

9. Would you ever write someone a love letter?
Last time I did long ago, the girl's mom found out, and I was totally humiliated... not to mention the girl wasn't interested.

Cried, got over it, then closed my heart.

10. Do you believe in Cupid?
Yes, but his aim is WAY off since he's blind.

11. Do your parents give you presents on Valentines?
No.

12. Do you still send out Valentines cards?
Nope, but I draw.

13. Do you like candy hearts?
You mean the hearts made by the Necco Wafers company? Grew up on 'em![/b]

15. Is Valentines depressing?
Yes. I nearly bit an employee's head off at one
time when he asked about how am I going to
spend Valentine's Day.

16. How do you feel about PDA?
It's alright.

17. How is your love life?
Don't ask.

Thank heavens, no.

19. How many roses would you want?
I like roses, but I'll take one.

20. Will you have a girlfriend next Valentines?
I... don't really know...


A good friend told me #14 is a toss-up question!

I'm not supposed to give it way!

Due to a balky modem, I found out I had gotten
kicked to the curb.

I am officially no longer employed by OtterComics.

And if it suits those in power, I'll take down my site where
my comics were at, just so don't have to deal with the cleanup.

I won't hold it against them... sooner or later
it had to end. At least I can look at the mirror
any time and realize I don't have to hide any skeletons
or hypocrisy from

Nor stoop to the level of my accusers like some folk that
I won't mention.



I have the archives. I just need a better place to go to.

And the drama? Eh, that shit-storm will die down.

Everyone... thanks for your concerns.

As for me... I gotta move on. See ya soon.

I got an IM from Oren Otter at OtterComics...

Rules

Someone has been nosing through my
stuff online... and telling.

I got busted for those Mardi Gras pics.

Either the pics go... or I do.

All of them... AND Megapatron's Julia.

Sorry folks.

And since that person ratted me out,
I have decided to stop making free art.

Furry drama is some shit I do not need. PERIOD.

EDIT-

Rules were deleted when a virus hit the forum.

Luckily, I had a copy of those rules on-hand.

YOu know it's fucking cold when...

·The birdbath that was frozen easly this morning is still so at noon.

·When the hot water is frozen and the cold water runs

But enough with my sorry-assed attempts at comedy.

I won't dare get out of bed from how bitter the cold weather has become...
and I live near the Gulf of Mexico! Fuck! The floors are wall-to-wall linoleum
and I dare not cross. don't even want to get out of bed early anymore...

During winter, that is.

However, everyone might one-up me on how cold their neck of the woods is
easily. But boy, I'm pretty sure everyone has thier own chilly tales to tell.

Excuse me... I have to get a cup of tea.

Later.

This too eff-ing frightening to contemplate...

I am not lying at all about this.

Today I...

•Went to town twice... the second time I had managed to snag a semi-used DS at GameStop for $70...

•Found out that Pictochat doesn't go long distance, but still managed to play Harvest Moon DS okay...

•Saw a pic that made me depressed, and removed a contact from my Yahoo Instant Messanger because of bad memories...

And... that's it. Won't go into details, nor drop names. Don't ask.

To avoid the unnessesary error of repeating myself,
here's a post made 2 years ago.

I borrowed this from  snow ...

Are you a bad influence?

If you go over 45, you're a bad influence.
If you go under 15, chances are you live
under a rock and have no life... even more harsh.

Earlier today, I was spraying the house, and I happen to see this tree
toad who had been making itself at home. And it kept popping up
everytime I had tossed it out for the past few nights. How can I tell?
The "singing" that it does. *Creeaaa-aaakk!!!* Well, I took that toad and
plopped it into the garden. And a few minutes later, I went to get a drink
of water, and I saw ANOTHER tree toad sitting where the previous one
was!!!
