Yeah, art school stifled my interest in doing a lot of projects. I can totally understand. I'm always inspired when I don't have supplies, and vice versa.
What kind of camera did you end up getting?
Thanks to X Evan X' excellent advice, I got a Canon XTi. I just got the memory card for it today so I sould be able to post pictures soon, whether or not I draw any.
What kind of stuff have you painted?
Speaking of dreams--the best dreams are lucid dreams where you can take control and do whatever the hell you want--you can program yourself to do this as you go to sleep, and it gets easier over time. You can imagine the possibilities, I'm sure...
But, like anything, you have to keep at it to retain the ablility.
I once in a while dream about exes, and they tend to be the same kind of dreams for each ex, lol.

John Madden (the NFL announcer) is an amazing human being. The reason for this being some of the things he says.
"Here's a guy, when he puts his contacts in he can see better."
Now that's just genius.

hahaha eeeewwwwwwwwww....
When I lived in the Philippines, lizards were like mice. So I'd be sitting watching TV and a lizard would crawl up the wall... haha, you just gave me flashbacks!

You do know that's their way of showing submission and loyalty, right? It's funny as shit, but absolutely true. True kitty love, to bring some dead vermin and lay out their carcass in front of you.
"Look, oh Mistress, I have brought you a freshly slain, delightful snack!"
This is what he's saying. So when you scream, they get confused. But they usually wind up eating it themselves, unless you take it away from them.
I will never forget this one badass lizard in Texas, that my cat Guinevere was trying to torture one day. There were zillions of lizards in Texas, and cats love lizards, until they finally die--so eventually I got tired of saving every fucking lizard that she was cruelly slaying. So I was sitting there feeling mildly guilty, while watching her torment yet another lizard.
But this one was a tough little fucker. He just sat there with his jaws stuck way up and wide open as he could get, just waiting for her to swat him again. When she did, he clamped down and, lo! He got her right on her sensitive little kitty toe pads!
This mean kitty weighing 300x the lizard was literally rolling on her back, in a panic, crying and mewling for help!
I got the fucker off her--carefully. And saved his little badass self to go sire some more tough lizards, lol...

I guess I've dabbled in just about every style and subject matter, but I always seem to come back to making odd acrylic and collage abstracts. I mix all different types of media actually. My preferred vocation for many years was printmaking. I would love to have my own silkscreen studio.
The problem is that I almost always give my artwork away. I have also made artwork as gifts for friends and family. Even though it's very personal and ritualistic to me in it's creation, I don't like to hold onto it because I feel it is best when I share it. I probably should have taken pictures, but c'est la vie.

I love it too actually...but I am way too quick to fall victim to impulse buying. I'll go in for 3 things and wind up with a cartload...no willpower. So if I could order, it may curb that a bit...but alas...

I should really do the laundry. I think I'm going to throw the clothes into the washer and then go get stoned outside on my hammock.

Grocery shopping is great fun if you have a cute friend to flirt with, right there in the cereal aisle. I love doing this, why I don't know, but everyone else in the store seems so bored and stuck--it heightens the excitement a bit I think.
The problem is that I almost always give my artwork away. I have also made artwork as gifts for friends and family. Even though it's very personal and ritualistic to me in it's creation, I don't like to hold onto it because I feel it is best when I share it. I probably should have taken pictures, but c'est la vie.
I used to do that, too. And people always want you to draw something for them when they hear you are an artist. But after a while I got tired of giving my work away, especially when I started to draw professionally. Now I almost never give even a little drawing away--what an asshole, eh?
OTOH, I have no hesitation to explain to people who want me to draw something that it's too much like work, and I wouldn't want to charge them what I charge per hour to draw shopping centers or do illustrations of other kinds. It's akin to the guys in the clubs who tell you they don't want it to be about the money. Well, I don't draw for free, lol!

I still haven't gotten my period, im bloated and the soreness in my boobs has kinda went away.
Im terffied that its something else going on, but too lazy to find out. I can't shake outta my head today the things he said to her. It still hurts and I want to kill him for it. makes me question all the other friends. Sucks I can tell no one or vent. Im hurt, humliated and wondering if she knows more about me than I do about her.
My face gets flushed still when I think about it, and my stomach does flip flops. My heart sinks. Things are good now, so why am I thinking and thinking about shit I can do nothing about .
My dreams are constant nightmares with him in it. Shit sucks.

I can't stop procrastinating! I've gotten some sketches of my website on paper. I have my content and my basic ideas. I guess that's a start, but I really just want the whole fucking thing DONE already. I bitched about this enough in chat...now I am procrastinating by posting in the random thread. Brilliant.
Maybe I should go clean the whole house to avoid working. At least then I'd have a clean house and an unfinished website instead of a dirty house and unfinished website.

-I really should be working on this final paper, but I'd rather read Stripper Web and watch YouTube.
-Stripper Web, ruining G.P.A.'s since who knows how long...
-I keep thinking about my ex-boyfriend when I really should be moving on with my life, but he keeps sucking me back in. I'm so weak.
-Speaking of said boyfriend, I wish he were around so that we could smoke together. Smoking makes everything alright with the world.
-Once finals are over, I am so going out and gettting drunk. I need it.
-Finally, after 6 years and 9 months, I finally got my braces off. My teeth are beautiful, but my mouth feels empty without them.

So it probably only took me an hour to actually write the damn thing, but I stopped to watch tv, talk to Belladonna about my tits, post a miniblog, watch GCG's Bibs memorial slide show (and dissolve into a mass of bawling tears AGAIN) and watch music videos on Youtube.
So much for staying on track. But the fucker is finished.

Belladonna like the Belladonna? She amazing. One of my friends all time favorites. Anyway, yeah I have an introspective essay and a group dynamics essay to write - I haven't started, I've been on SW, Youtube, Myspace, ebay and watching TV.... You've inspired me to buckle down.

I put shit off till way too late. ex. my last 10 page research paper was done 45 min before it was due, but I still got an A on it. And the one before was done 12 hours before it was due, I got a B on that one tho. Maybe if I couldn't get away with putting them off I wouldnt but I mean really there's no motivation to do it earlier. Maybe I just work better under pressure... who knows. I havent looked at it again. I was working out/stretching just now rather than doing it. I'm lame.
