    when contacts were super expensive

    Ash – if you see this, I found black contact lenses. I was wrong about the price. It’s higher. $150 for a pair that doesn’t cover the entire eye, $325 for a pair that covers the whole eye. (if anyone knows where one can get black contact lenses ala Evil willow for a cheaper price, let me know.) Um. I…

    when we had fun at mtac

    WOOO! Yeah!! I did have fun at mtac!! I was only there one day and spent most of the time at my art table, but it was still a lot of fun. more so than otakon, for the most part. I will write my report soon. Right now I have to get ready for this dumb shower they’re having here…

    when it was time to go to mtac

    Leaving for MTAC in a few minutes. All week long I have been fighting this horrible zit. I *only* get zits when I’m stressed, which only adds to my stress, of course. Well this one was a doozy. Mom bought me these neutrogena “on the spot” acne patches. Those things are worthless, don’t waste your time. A) they didn’t have…

    Art Post: Ah! My Goddess

    Markers on illustration board…. Another one to take with me to Otakon. Skuld looks like there should be a bluebird on her hand (really she should be holding her hammer thing, but I forgot to ink that part so it got left off)

    when i dreamed about yuu watase

    Another snippet of a dream last night. I dreamt I was at a convention, and Yuu Watase was doing commissions for $12. And nobody was around! So Ash and I went over and I figured what the hey. I asked her to draw Tasuki for me and paid up. She was very happy about it and drew… er, something. It…

    when i saw the buffy musical

    Now I remember! I finally got to see the buffy musical last night. Though stupid weatherman had to break in at one point to tell everyone that there was a bad storm going on. Duh, like I can’t hear the thunder. Get off my tv! My mom gave my phone number to some guy who is going to be starting…

    when my car died

    *pokes bbs with a stick* Well that’s one less thing to worry about. My car almost died on me on the way to work this morning. I started it up this morning and it didn’t squeak. It has belt problems, and lately they’ve been worse, but we hadn’t had time to take it in and get them adjusted. But I…
