News!

I feel I should make at least a short blog post while I have the chance. I may have to cut myself off, though, as I'm waiting on my friend so we can go to Tennessee for a few hours.

First, I'm going to try to get some jobs doing some design-type work for whoever wants it. I've been brainstorming some ideas for my friends, The Violent (a band that you should listen to, as they are all very talented. And that Joe guy is super sexy. That last sentence was made just for Joe, if he happens to read this.), I just finished turning in the final logo design for the improv group West of Shake Rag, and I'll probably end up doing stuff for the band I'm currently in (kinda). So, if anyone wants me to do anything for them, just ask. I may even do it for free! Who knows?

Actually, that's about all I have to really say at the moment. Like I said, I'm kind of in a band at the moment, but we rarely ever get to practice, plus I suck big time at playing bass. But it's neat anyway. I'm still trying to work on the whole girlfriend situation. Maybe I'll find someone someday, but the odds are looking grim for it being anytime in even the semi-near future. If you're a girl and you think I'm cool, call me up, man. Of course, I don't expect you to actually do that. That's crazy.

I'm headin' out now. Peace out, peoples.

Well.

I don't have any whining to do this time, but I feel like I should put a new blog up anyway.


Lately I've been in a very creative mood. I've written the lyrics to two songs ("Here is Hell" and "I Got My Baby on Layaway") and I've come up with snippets of lyrics for three other ones.


I'm supposedly going to get to play bass for some guys that are trying to get a band together over in Blue Springs, so we'll see how that goes, but mainly I'm still looking forward to getting my laptop fixed (STILL NOT FIXED) so that I can record shit myself. I know that there's no way in hell that anyone else would ever let me sing for them, but I like singing, no matter how bad I sound, so doing my own little project seems to be the perfect cure for that.


As far as other things go, I'm very much looking forward to getting out of school, and also looking forward to my birthday, if I don't forget about it like I did last year. I don't really have any plans on what I'll be doing for my birthday, but if anybody has any suggestions, I'm open to them. I'd like to do something different. Maybe spend a day in Memphis or somewhere, doing whatever the fuck a person not old enough to drink CAN do. (not much)


I'm still all mopey about my mental issues concerning women, but I'm trying to work on that. Trying is the key word there.


Ummm, I can't really think of anything else, so I think I'm going to leave it here.


OH OH OH. Forgot. I demand that everybody go out and watch Mirrormask if you haven't seen it yet. It's very good, and I'm mad at myself for not having bought it earlier.


Which leads me to something else that I forgot to say. I have some new favorite artists to add to my list of favorite artists (redundant?). Ralph Steadman and Dave McKean. Look 'em up.


OKAY I GO NOW BYE BYE

Been a TEENSY Bit

I need to find some way of getting my many many doodles up here. I suppose I can ask my roommate really nicely if I can use his laptop, and connect my scanner to it, then do a scan-a-thon. I think I've improved in being able to make drawings that are clever, silly, or just plain weird. I've, unfortunately, been filling my notebook paper with these drawings, instead of the preferred sketch paper. The main reason behind that is that I do most of my drawing in class.

Anyway, I got a bass guitar over the christmas break, and I've been playing that. I'm decent enough to be in a punk band or something, I think, by now. If and/or when I get my laptop back, I might have to combine my bass powers with the might of FL Studio to make some compositions of some sort. That would be neat, right? I hope so.

Also, I somehow ended up putting this blog on LoadedWeb.com, or whatever it's called. So if you magically find this blog, feel free to comment so that I feel all loved and whatnot. If I start getting comments, I'll start trying to update more often, JUST FOR YOU.
