A post about me in the shower

"Funny" story. I'll spare as many details as i can (those who want to know more... well, just ring me with an offer).

I shower twice daily. Sometimes 3 times. This one day i had to work a short, 4 hour shift and at 9, when it ended, i had to rush home to be out the door with 5 minutes to spare. I had already showered before and work was boring and i had nothing to do so i didn't really break a sweat. So i didn't think i had to do my usual jump-in-the-shower-20-seconds-after-my-shoes-come-off routine.

Once i got home, however, i changed my mind. I just couldn't imagine going out to eat supper and not showering. Gah. I had that work feeling over my body. It's blah. But my friends were going to be here any second. Ultimately i said "screw it, i'm getting a shower" and ran for the bathroom (don't worry, all running was done with clothes on... i do have windows, you know). I decided to not wash my hair so i wouldn't waste time, which is unusual because i always wash my hair first, then i get the suds going. So this time i went for the soap first.

But as i did, my own personal shampoo bottle made a "clunk" noise and jumped off the edge of the shelf, scaring the "suds" out of me (teehee). It's as if it was jealous that it wasn't being used first, or at all. I laughed to myself, rinsed off and got out of the shower as fast as i could.

My friends showed up 40 minutes later.

I'ts been about 4 days since my last post and this is all i have to write about. Yup, life is good. Great even. I'm going to put holes in the wall with a hammer, now.

Godspeed.

My gift to you (the PG edition)

A chess team checks into a hotel. They were standing around talking about their recent tournament victories, and after about an hour, the manager came out and asked them to take it to their rooms.

"But why," they asked as they moved off.

"Because," said the manager, "I can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer."





It's ok... just let it sink in.

New Section!

Howdy, strangers (anybody reading this must be, other than about 3 people). New here? Get out while you can. A regular, who can't seem to shake this nonsense out of your life? Good. Here's something else to bang your head to the wall to.

I now have a header archive! Oh yes, that means more headers on a regular basis. Old ones will be moved to the archive (most of them, the ones i like stay here). New ones are already updated. Little credits are added to the ones with borrowed designs. Blah blah blah. I explain it all here.

Ok. I guess that's it. Don't laugh, a lot of these are based on old artwork i did. The archive is full of medium sized pictures, so 56k users be wary. As time passes the section will only get slower. Just. Like. Me.

Take care, dear readers. Godspeed and stuffs.

Teleport me to header-city!

I woke up today to a black tongue. Not a shade of black, not black spots. I fully black tongue.

The cause? Too much Pepto Bismol, which i was taking because i was in so much pain from the wedding this past weekend. I get nervous around people, especially when i have to speak. The day after the wedding was not pretty.

Colour me relieved. Among other things.

Fuuny Feelings (and the things that cause them)

I'm going to jump right into this, as i'm not feeling entirely up to par right now. Yes, you are (somewhat) spared the witty commentary. And by witty, i mean horrible. Horrible.

It all has to do with work and the past. As i mentioned in my previous post (didn't read it? it's ok, neither did i) i am currently working somewhere i haven't worked since about 2002. And i enjoy it more now then i did then, for numerous reasons that aren't very interesting. Anyhow, after getting to work 3 hours late (the schedule that was hanging up when i went to get my hours was of the previous week--someone made a booboo and i paid for it), which made for a fun evening of laughs at my expense (it was funny), i immediately went to work. Busy day, with shipments coming in very late.

A few hours go by, and i decide to take a break. That's something i don't tend to do, because it disrupts my work. But today was about 25 outside, pretty damn warm for any summer day around here let alone a fall one. I grabbed an iced tea, left my work where it was and headed outside to sit on the curb. It was goddamn gorgeous outside. There was something about the temperature, the air, the smell. It was hard to place, but it felt good. It felt somewhat comforting, in a weird way.

Then it hit me. I got this strange vibe, this weird feeling throughout my body. All these memories rushed back to me; a time which was much different. I thought about the life i had back then. It's hard to explain, but so many emotions and thoughts came rushing back to me that i pretty much lost focus of everything thereafter. My old friends, people i haven't spoken to in months or years, and people who used to visit me on slow nightshifts (i still remember everyone who did it and i am still grateful for it). Everything just took over me.

Right now, i'm not sue why i'm even posting this. Maybe it's because i wanna remember this, or maybe it's because i need something to do. I'm not really sure. But today was the first day in so long that i can remember feeling something such as this. It's just a shame that what i'm feeling happened 3 years ago.

Anyways, Godspeed and sleep tight. I think tonight i will do the same.

Baby steps

Man have i been messed up as of late. This place was supposed to be a change for me. More creative than my usual internet stuffs. Not whiney. So, if you read any of the trash recently and are still reading now, i applaud you. Remind me, whenever i see you, to make kissing faces in your direction.

I'd do the real thing, but frankly, i have no idea where any of you have been. Or even myself, for that matter.

With that, i'd like to announce some small steps forward (omg, the title of this post has meaning!1!). As i've mentioned before, i'd really like to kick start EdJuice again (i've become way too attached to the stories and characters... not to mention the creative genius of The Harn). There's way too many funny strips (according to us) to just keep out of the public eye. Too much work as well.

In the meantime, i've restarted some work from the past. Currently i have 3 geeky projects in the pipeline, some i started as far back as 6 years ago. For now, they are in the planning stages (a lot has changes in 6 years), just to see what can work. If EdJuice starts up again, these projects will take the backseat for a while. But i really want to share some of these ideas. This makes me very excited, in a very geeky way.

Life seems to be shifting for me. I quit my job, my (mostly) thankless delivery guy/driver position. I'm back at a former workplace right now, part-time. Which is good, because i need the time. I have some adjustments to make to my life. From here on out, i need to change the bad things.

Cheers. And Godspeed.
