I bought a bad painting of an eagle at work(thrift store) last week because it looked bad in the "crazy outsider artist" way. Compleatly inept in some ways yet obsessively detailed. I looked up the signature and found what I am pretty sure is the blog of the artist, and he's completely insane: Steve Savage
Today Me and Caleb went to the Taste of St.Cloud, the name is a bit of false adverting but it was ok because the expensive italian restaurant we like had a booth so we ate their delicious meats in a sandwich format Hooray! There was also a perv 69 rabbit in the petting zoo, and a baby cow who laid on the ground and did not move. and emus
You can hotglue bath oil beads to a window but you have to put the glue on the window and then the bead in the glue. The oil leaks out if you do it the other way around
I can't remember If i've posted these already, i've had them saved for awhile. what the hell happened to my Is. <--- I wrote 1 the first time there, I think I have rabies or something ( quiz results )
At work(a thrift store) I got a decent digital camera that I can keep in my purse unlike the better camera I have but live in fear of breaking. Now I can post photos of my super fun adventures that no one but me care about. YAY
Today I missed the bus I was supposed to take to work because there were snowhills in my way walking to the bus station. But a different bus than I normally ride to work was late so I got on that and called work to tell them I'd be late. I got to work about 15 or 20 minuets late and found out they were closing at 5 and everyone had been sent home(It was around 4:20 when I got there). There were only two people there, my boss and one of the supervisors. So I worked for an hour and by boss drove me home. And apparently I will get free food on Saturday as a prize for going to work.
So when I got home way early I was like "the lack of visibility over the mississippi sure looks wacky!" and decided to walk 3 blocks to taked photos. The walk was ok, but I almost got frostbite on my fingers when I took of my gloves to operate the camera.
Today it is the 1st birthday of Ninja, Microblaze, The Pale One, Copyright Infringement, CatRat, Basalt, Spotmouth, Sgt.Griggs, and Mohawk. I filled some treat cups with stuff for them(the cups are for kids birthday type events, they have a flap so it gives rats challange to open it) you can see the pig one in the photos, the males have a dalmation one.
I have done an adequate amount of homework for today so I will fill this out
rae_loves_cake told me to do this meme. I am slow so if I do anything for other people's list it might end up as a new years or valentines present
STEP ONE: - Make a post (public, friends locked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, From little to big.
STEP TWO: -Surf around your friends list to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part: If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true! Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have something you dont use that another wants, or perhaps the spare funds on hand, to give. The point of this isn't to put people out, or go broke or whom gets the most wishes fufilled, Is a chance to grant some one's a wish out of the goodness of your heart, because you have something to spare. There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
STEP THREE: -Include your contact info (email for shipping, addy) whatever/however you are comfortable with, just in case some one does have a physical object from your wishlist they wish to send you.
I will make a separate address post

8.) Things that glow
9.Movie tapes. I have a vcr, and now that I work at a thrift store I am hording tapes
10. Link to my site from your's. This is an easy one if other people steal my answer it would sort of be a "holiday gift meme" webring
I just noticed that the the spam folder on gmail has links to spam recipies at the top in the same place that the inbox has ads, and the trash folder has recycling tips
I am taking a digital art class(its one of the 5 you take before you apply for the art major). The first project we did was scanning and traceing a logo. I did a chocolate turtle. The first day we were supposed to work on it my cd did not work and my website wich I had put the scan on was down and I forgot to bring the real copy with me. So I was behind and had to go to school today to finish it. I did a super half assed job because I didn't feel like working on it.
Today I cleaned off my desk, and during this I unplugged my computer and all the wires. While it was disconnected from anything I decided to pull off the side window to pick out the dust bunnies I could see inside. When I turned on the computed it worked fine exept my virus program and a few others had a problem and closed, and sites kept saying certificates were expired. Eventually I noticed my computer's date was right but the year is 15.106. Hopefully nothing else is weird, I'm going to reset the date now. If I'm not online much later it may be because my computer exploaded. The moral is do not dig dust out of your computer with chopstiks
I usualy post this like a month before my birthday but I forgot. Maybe if I do it so close to my birthday(on the 18th), people will feel rushed and I will trick you into sending me bacon
Today I watched the city fireworks off my deck, we get a good view of them down the street since we live near the river. Abbey, the female cockatiell, is frightened of the fireworks so I am holding them. Acero seems more exited by it(the people across the street are setting stuff off)
There are too many thingys to fill in now with the tags and location, it takes me several years to write a journal entry now
... I finnaly found I movie that I can play to squick booze_fountain!!!!(Including me!) . I have many John Waters movies, the guinea pig movies and I've seen salo and plan nine but none of those really disturbed me. But I finnaly found one(that I can watch, I refuse to watch the man behind the sun and squish porns don't count as real movies), Pretty Baby, starring brook sheilds and susan surandon. It surpassed my creepyness expectations. I must buy it now so that I can inflict it on more people. I ALSO JUST HAD A CAN OF COFFEE with icecream in it111111111!!!
I bought some polaroid film to see if the non peel kind can be cut open transfered onto paper. I did manage to transfer a few recognizable images but not they were not that interesting, and I ended up more interested with overlaying different layers together and rubbing lines into them
I have little free time nowdays, between midtearms and extended Halloween hours at work. I crapped out a jackolantern(ow?) quickly withno preplaning, it ended up looking sort of like a David Hopkins drawing. I think I will be a devil for work tommorow and at the pagan ball afterwards. The title of this is from an ani halloween pamphlet I got from a booth of a weird chirstian booth. One of the people kept tring to bait us, and acted like he really wanted attention or to start a fight with someone. We(Kate and I) ignored him. One of the rats, Basil, got out of her cage last night and into the cage with 3 males. A climbing stick jammed between the bars of her cage widened them just enough for her to fit out of, and she can fit right through the bars of the male's cage(she is much smaller than them). So Kate noticed there were two hooded rats in the cage this morning(lemmywinks is her brother). Hopefully she was not in heat.
I got my new glasses today. My old ones were horribly scratched and crooked. I was worried they would look bad because I bought them online, but they acctually look better than my old ones. http://www.framesdirect.com/framesfp/Bebe-lcnetj/r.html are the frames I got
The weird thing is that my new prescription is much stronger than my old ones, and it apparently causes red and blue to offset. This icon appears 3D to me. ninjaseg has a stronger prescription and is used to it.
Last week in my woman's psychology class there was a test. I was caught compleatly off guard because I had missed the previous class. I also don't have the main book and have done almost none of the reading. I was worried I failed. But I just looked up the test results, it has everyones scores on it, and only 3 people did better than me, and 2 did as well as me(out of about 80 people) and I got an A
I have not updated my LJ for about a month!! What have I been doing?
school work sleep eat wash things shop get rained on
I don't think I've done anything ineresting. Exept maybie on talk like a pirate day there was a group of people on the campus saying inflamitory religous statments in a plot to get someone to hit them so they could sue the school. I coulden't watch long because I had to put my pirate costume on and go to work.
I also dressed like a devil for work one day and the first customer bought this book
I figured out how to give my hand rat nipples! The medication syringe from when I had to medicate the bird was still on my desk, so I put the tip on my hand, pulled up the plunger and held it like that for a bit. When I pulled it off I had a rat nipple on my hand!
Now I'm working on my 3rd one so I can have a row of rat nipples
I was going to donate plasma today but my arm is too bruised from them putting the needle in wrong and repeatedly having to wiggle it around in my arm on saturday. I can't go back untill the bruise is yellow.
I just was outside to go to the store. Part of the sky looked like it was made of glowing fur. I think it was the edge of a raincloud, it seems to be rapidly getting dark now.
I can't "donate" plasma today because my iron is one point too low. I probably should have eaten some sort of meat and not just ramen and doughnuts in the last 12 hours. I was hoping my visit to ironworld on my birthday had cased me to absorb enough to last awhile
I should write about that trip before I forget it. And the werid dreams I've been having
This cat has a good name. I found the site while I was looking up the movie Suspiria. The photos of the suspiria cat are neat because they are styled to look like the movie.
Yay, there is finnaly a severe thunderstorm happening! The red part on the radar is already passed but just a minuet ago there was lighting close enough that I could feel the thinder through the floor. Apparently its going to be super hot out later today though. I guess that makes sense since it was already 80 out and its only 10:00
I went swimming here today with Kate and Seg. Its kind of creepy to swim there because its 116 feet deep and there are only sharp alge covered granite rocks around the edges. Plus no lifegaurd. We were scared at first but if was fun once we go used to it and swam around the edge. There were a ton of mosquitoes and we forgot bug spray. Now I look like I have chicken pox. They stole my precious blood that I need to sell to the plasma place. Also drunk people were throwing firecrackers in the water but they were well behaved drunk people and only threw them at their friends.
Also Kate got me food at mcmillans and it was good but the lactose from the pie is making my intestines very angry.
I just watched the video for that daft punk ipod song. It has what I'm pretty shure is a skinned chucky doll in it. I said that it should have a creepy animatronic doll fight with the one from the interpol video. Then I went back to my computer, and guess what song was playing
I'm eating the rest of some mashed potatoes I made a few days ago and I just found a little metal rod in it that must have come off the crappy wisk I used. That could have caused some serious damabe if I had bit down the wrong way
Does anyone know what sot of insect looks like an ant and smells like a cats ass? I don't think its a stinkbug because I looked it up and they didn't match
The baby rat Kate got last weekend loves to lick people. I have never known an animal that is so desperate to lick humans. She has figured out how to crawl down the front of my shirt so she can sit between my boobs and lick them. Right now she seems to be attempting to burrow into my scalp. This is a huge difference from the older rat, who hates being petted and seems terrified of being removed from her cage
I was sitting in a resteraunt eating. It was a diner style place that used to be by my father's house but in the dream it still existed. I was wearing black sneakers and my socks had the canadian flag on them. I was eating breakfast type food. Then for some reason I went to the moon. Nasa recruited me at random apparently. The part between the resterant and the moon I don't remember that well. I was on the moon. For some reason they gave me a full moon suit but I had the same shoes and socks on before. I was like " Yay my footprints will be unique!" and then "thats funny that I have canada socks on when I'm on the moon representing america.". Then I was concerned that my feet might explode from being exposed to space. But they were fine. As I woke up I started wondering why my air didn't leak out the cuff of my moonsuit pantleg.
I somehow injured my knee on the bus yesterday(clearly it was a cursed bus, it was in an accident two block before my stop to get on so I had to wait 50 minuets for it)
Since I can't straighten my leg out and do anything usefull I am trying the free trial of second life. I don't know people there so I've been wandering around.
If I am able to lift the weight required, I'm going to be hired for a 12$ an hour job + overtime. Way more than I make now. Tommorow I go in to be shown around and see if I can pick the stuff up. Hopefully I can because making enough to pay rent in one week is much better than not making enough for rent in a month
I just made a new art exchanging community adequate_ss, after seeing people complain about and myself seeing people who draw crappy art for the trading communities just to get free art. This is NOT about anything I have received, just stuff I've seen others get. Basicly you have to have adequate skills to be accepted for participation in the tradeing rounds
Last night me and kategod went dumpsterdiving. I had been drinking mountaindew when Kate came home with a coffee drink for me so I was super cracked out and able to climb the big dumpsters effectively. I learned that I can pull myself out of a huge unfilled dumpster with my leg if I have to. School dosn't end for a week and a half but they already have furnature dumpsters out and people are throwing stuff in them so we wanted to go look at stuff before its buries in more stuff. Unfortuanatly the freshman dumpsters that have the most stuff in them also have more idiots around to poorsicute us. We plan on going a gain this and next weekend, later at night when hopefully at least less people will be out. What we got: desk chair that need a leg to be fixed, a light meatal frame and a hammoklike back that I can unlace and put in the wash, a wire little shelf thing, a big mirror with piece broken off the side and a floorlamp.
After we go on the future dumstering adventures we are going to play "dumpster survivor" with our finds to keep the best stuff and re dumpster the stuff we don't want
I just remembered right now while chooseing my icon that I had a dream that involved Leigh Bowery somehow
Me and kategod took the rabbit out on the leash for the first time today. He just sat there washing himself untill we found grass that wasn't covered in so much snow goo. We don't know if he has ever been on dirt before
