I haven't updated this thing in a long time.. not since April. Hm. Well, anyway.. any truly private thoughts I have, I'll be reserving for livejournal. Much smaller population that'll be looking at it. Here's my first bitch-rant in a while ( Read more... )

I have a sketch of a rose next to me, on my desk.. and I look at it nightly. It's supposed to be a white rose, but since I toned the entire paper, it's more.. eh.. graphite colored. *smirk* I haven't been inspired to draw much, and I'm under the suspicion it's because I'm not a fan of black-and-white drawings, or the very-defined lines of a sketch ( Read more... )

So.. I'm proud of myself today. Typically, I don't like eating in restaurants when I'm with someone.. and I hate eatin' alone.. but I figured that was just fear talking. Last night, I decided, "Damn it, I wanna try Thai," and so I did. My uncle, Micheal (and it sounds like he's not returning to the states.. when he's done in Iraq, he's probably ( Read more... )

I swear every day that I check CNN.com, there's a report of another roadside bombing. A lot of people dead, even more people injured.. I always wonder how many civvies are now among the dead.

I'm gonna cross-post this with MySpace, because there's still a few LJ-goers who aren't on MySpace.. and I think this post'll summarize my feelings on an issue well enough that I'll never have to explain it again ( Read more... )

Ever had a series of days that was so unbelievable.. and so much went on.. that you have absolutely no desire to tell anyone else about it, ever? Yessir.

On second thought, mice suck. As far as I can tell, it didn't show up last night but the next time it does.. I happen to have 4 stray kitties outside. See, a good way to kill a rodent without doing it yourself is to let a cat tear it to pieces. ^.^

Even I, Das Chuckittie, can be dense. Here's an example ( Read more... )

I'd heard, at some point, that Dauphin Street was being has been slowly restored to the.. well, what amounts to the equivalent of Bourbon Street, so take that as you want to. So last night I walked down Dauphin at around.. eh.. 8:30, 9 or so. Well. The only resemblance I saw was an abundance of bums asking for money. I'm sure Byron can agree with ( Read more... )

I should've posted this early, when it was fresh on my mind.. but I forgot, as I typically do. As a matter of fact, I forgot half of what I was gonna say, which's a pity since, to me, it was deep and meaningful. Just not meaningful enough to stay in my mind for more than 6 hours ( Read more... )
