I hardly ever do journals but I have 20 minutes before I leave work and in bored so figured why not.

Anyway, just felt like mentioning that my recent single "battler" art is for a game I'm building in rpg maker. I feel like I'll never finish. But for whatever reason I felt really impulsed to draw lots of pictures that get featured in the game. They get shrunk down significantly so any imperfections will virtually disappear. There's a bunch I haven't uploaded to here just cause they're not all that great or i shrunk them down THEN saved them as .png files. Oops

Anyway, I'm working on a couple more right now but with Christmas coming its hard to find the time to work on them

That's all

I closed on my house today so my address has officially changed! I'm pretty excited. I spent the afternoon raking (which doesn't sound very fun . . . . but it totally IS when you own the house!)

If anyone's ever in Massachusetts and wants to stop by and hang out, let me know. I can finally have guests!

I'm watching this show on TLC "I Cloned My Pet"


....... Most people miss their pets and it's sad that they eventually pass on, typically before us.

But these people are CRAZY ASS CRAZY PEOPLE!

And there's a dog whisperer?? I respect Caesar Milan because he knows how to read dog body language really well. But they have this guy on here who is acting like that douche John Edward and "communicating" with the cloned dog's past life. For Christsake. Do people really believe this crazy shit?

I'm starting to lose my faith in the human race.

To anyone who reads journals (in particular, my journals),

Sorry for watchers who may have been waiting for something new from me. I'm in the middle of trying to get a house and at the same time, find someone to rent my condo.

So needless to say, artwork has been the last thing to occupy my thoughts. But I swear I do have things in progress and I will post again soon.

Also, once I get a house I can finally get myself a dog. So I'll have some furry inspiration to work from :)

~Ciao lovelies

So I'm looking to buy a house. I want a house with a yard so I can get me a puppy.

I found a great one but the bank is countering kind of high. Not being very negotiable. The guy comes back today and claims someone else has an offer on the house juuuuust above what I'm offering. Seems like a trick to me. I think tomorrow I'm going to call his bluff and stand firm on my offer.

No one pulls the wool over Fauxxy's eyes ><

Possible spoilers below

I just saw this last night. I think the critics were being a little unfair with this one.

I thought it was pretty good. The critics claim there's no direction and there isn't a lot of development. Obviously these people know nothing about green lantern and don't want to know. They're not willing to give it a chance.

It sets up Sinestro to be the villain he is destined to be. They explain that parallax is the embodiement of fear and he was in habiting someone. So even though he's gone by the end, he can't be gone forever. We'll see it again. And then there is carol ferris. Critics say she was pointless. Again, if the reviewers knew anything about green lantern characters then they would have seen that carol had a lot to say. Not so much in words but in actions. Her devoted love for hal jordan despite his immaturity only helps facilitate her eventual seduction by the Star Saphfire. So I think you'll see her play an ambiguous villain in the sequel.

I was sad to see hector hammond go though. He had potential to be a returning villain but then in this version of green lantern his role was fullfilled so I guess he wasn't necessary.

My theory for a sequel is the overall plot will revolve around sinestro using fear to govern his sector. Hal jordan thomps him good and sinestro is ejected from the corps. The 3rd movie would involve the sinestro corps trying to destroy the green lanterns.

Anyway, I think I saw what the writers were trying to do with this movie. But I can understand that some critics who don't know the story might find it confusing and dead ended

Ah, summer! Time to get outside and frolic ^^

Already dug a garden and spent a weekend in a cabin on a secluded island.

This is not an important journal. Was just bored enough to write one ^^

Happy Summer everyone!

Okay, so this has nothing to do with Furs, and it's probably not the best forum for this, but GOD, I hate playing shooting games online. It's bad enough that Transformers: War for Cybertron is so short in campaign mode that you're practically forced to play multiplayer just to get your money's worth, but then you try it, and you find yourself having to deal with kids in the 7-12 old range whos level of mental development rivals mayonnaise.

So I'm 32. I'm sure I might have been as annoying when I was that age if I had games like this (instead of Mega Man and Mario) but for fucks sake! What's wrong with these brats?

So I don't care for the brute force of running around bashing robots up. That's button mashing brain melting slobber that's frankly boring. So I decide to be clever and be a sniper. Of course there aren't a lot of hiding spots when you're a sniper in this game. You just kind of aim, shoot, and then look around quickly to make sure nothing is coming up from behind or above you. It's a challenge and I enjoy"ed" it. It's in the game, you can do it, you even get points for headshot kills. So yes, a sniper.

So I decide that maybe this game just isn't for me. You can't mute the headset stuff, so even if you don't use one, you can hear others who do. One retarded kid starting playing Lady Gaga during a fight. Others just taunt you like they're hot shit. I find myself wanting to reach through the screen and throttle them to death.

So grrr, I get annoyed and stop playing. I watch Willow (love that movie) and relax and eat dinner. Then I stop watching the movie and find that this douchebag has sent me a message on my PS3 that just says "faggy camper"

Now for those who don't know what the term "camper" is (and I pray everyone does) it means you're a person who stays in the same spot forever to steal crap from other players or to genuinely wait for something to spawn that you need (EQ2 players know what I'm talking about)

Now I remember this kid who sent me the message. He is a maxed out character that goes around killing for no reason other to show off how tough he is (also no life). He's probably killed me more than I like to admit, but there's no point. If you're maxed out, then you're throwing away EXP that someone else could use. Also you can't stop these maxed out players because they're too strong nor do you have the ability to NOT play with them. It's a randomly generated map with random people.

So I get this message and I'm like WTF seriously?? "faggy" sure, "camper" NO! I have too much self respect to be a camper. Well, unless I really needed an update for something, but that's an entirely different game.

So there's a good path to take here and a bad path. The good path would be to explain to this bed wetter what a sniper is. 'Websters defines it as a rifleman who fires from a concealed place, esp a military marksman who fires from cover usually at long ranges at individual enemy soldiers.' The term "Camper" doesn't apply here. The bad way would be to start a long drawn out pissing contest that brings me down to his level and will go nowhere, and is probably what this prepubescent wants. So far I just said "huh?" thinking maybe he sent his message to the wrong player.

Grrrrrrrr!!!! What's wrong with kids? If I had one like this, I would most likely make him eat his playstation controller to teach him a lesson and then kick his ass once an hour on the hour.

So, for anyone who actually read this whole thing, I apologize for the drama. Just needed to vent and everyone's busy this weekend

Fauxxy

Ps. does anyone else play Transformers here? If so, we should play some escalation together. I haven't tried it but I imagine you avoid these types of problems since you know who you're playing with, or so I'm guessing
