this is what chains and snowtires and 4WD are for
Posted 16 years agoSo it was really icy yesterday morning, and I had to drive up to the mountains... well it's about 7 am... so there's not many people on the road. Those on the road don't know how to drive in slick conditions AT ALL. In the span of like 2 miles there were 6 accidents.
Anyways, there were three lanes, I'm in the left hand lane, no one is in the middle and I'm trying to pass everyone in the right lane. Well this guy in a Dodge Ram decides he's going to lose control and come STRAIGHT into my lane. I had no time to react, there was only about 12 feet from my hood to his stopped truck. This all happened within like a second, too! I slammed on my brake, I couldn't think of anything else to do and I turned the wheel towards the median. There's this horrible SKHHHHH~ sound as I'm skidding towards him and I'm SOOO about to T-bone him... I can see him gripping the wheel and he's looking around, confused... An older man. The only thought I had was Brian standing over the wreckage/me being dead and "damn, I really liked this car." I'm in a VW Jetta, btw, so his truck would've kicked my ass.
I thought I hit him, but it was my car grabbing some road and me going into the median. I start turning sideways (facing the road), heading towards a mile marker. I missed the guardrail and one of those orange trash bags, too. I slowed down enough to put it into second gear right before the marker (it was right outside my window!) and I got back on the road. I looked back at the guy, he was pulling off to the side, his truck was fine. The whole time I was like this 8|
Brian called me like 2 seconds afterwards to ask me where I was (as he was driving up there, too) and I lost it. I became a babbling brook of OMG I ALMOST DIED!
On the way home, I looked at where it happened, and where I pulled off, there SHOULD have been a mile marker! It was gone!
I got so lucky. But I'm tired of driving and everytime I shut my eyes, I see the side of that guy's truck.

Posted 16 years agoI have recently discovered the joys of Facebook. I went and found a bunch of my old, highschool buddies and yet I still have no one on my buddy list.

I also went down to the Social Security office today and got my name changed (cuz I got married). And then they let me drop my middle name!! Oh my god, I am no longer cursed with such a horrible middle name!
BRITTANY!
I feel naked with such a short name now. Anywho, add me on Facebook. I'm under Nicole Trimm.

Posted 16 years agoYou guys. I live in the ghetto, right? Everyone is scared of my dog. Have you seen pictures of him? How does he look scary? He's black and has some Rottie in him? Ok, I guess, but I don't understand how people can be scared of a well behaved dog.
When kids go by on bikes, I make him sit so he doesn't scare them. They're still scared of him.
He walks by my side on the leash and doesn't pull.
There's this black family down the street that ALWAYS sits on the porch and yells stuff at me when I walk by, such as "DERE GOES DAT DAWG GURL AGEEN!" and "DAT DAWG BITES! HE MEAN!" and other such annoyances. There was a guy from this house getting something out of his car, which was parked across the street from said house and he goes "OH YOUR DAWG BITES! HE VICIOUS!!" and sped-walked back across the street until I passed!
Loki was just like ":3?" as he always is and just wants to sniff people.
Mexicans are TERRIFIED of him (both houses next to me have Mexican families in them). If the kids are in their back yard playing, and I let Loki out, the kids run inside. What does Loki do? He sits about 4 feet from the fence and watches them play. No barking, no excited behavior.
Snobby people are also terrified of him, especially children. I guess it's because he's not a Lab or Retriever.
So... I was in a Petsmart check-out line yesterday, and there's a black mom and 2 or 3 year old girl in front of me. With a 9 or 10 week old Rottweiler puppy (she's just letting the dog crawl around on the floor!). The mom is talking to the clerk about dog training, so... she's not paying ANY attention to what the girl or puppy are doing. The puppy sees another dog and starts waddling over, the little girl flips a shit and YANKS back on the leash. The puppy just slides like 4 feet. The girl realizes she doesn't like it there, and YANKS back on the leash again. She tries to pick it up or pet it and it bites her! She swooshes it across the floor again, near my feet, and I felt so terrible. The puppy tried to hide behind me, and the little girl gave me this dirty look and yanked back with all her might. Me, B and the people behind me are like O_O. My heart was so broken, so I cleared my throat and gave the mom this disgusted look, and I think she felt my eyes boring a hole through her head cuz then she looked at me, looked at the dog, and then watched the dog sliiiide across the floor and that damned little girl pulling on it. She starts saying "why you bein' like dat, be nice! I thought I told you be nice!" and she scoops the dog up and leaves.
B and I placed bets that the dog will get put in the pound by the time it's 3 or 4 months old. :\ Seriously, Rotties need a lot of training and discipline, and I don't think that dog's gonna get it. It's going to be one of those neurotic dogs that bark and pace the fence, and then it's going to be a guard dog... just... ugh. I even bet the mother is going to be scared of it in a few months! If I had Loki with me, I bet they both would have been terrified... and to think, their dog is going to be... what... 3 times as big as mine?
I wish people would understand that a dog isn't some fuckin' ornament.

Posted 16 years agoIf you're not nervous anymoooooooooar?
AH. AWESOME. Everything is in place for our wedding. Yes. I've been calling it the teeny wedding (it's the legal one with the judge and all, there's only going to be like 7 of us there) and it's GOING DOWN FRIDAY. FUCK YEAH. I will post links to my LJ with pictures if you guys are interested in seeing. Iunno.
The big OMG WTF wedding is next September. We just wanted benefits now (and I wanted to change my name).
Then we're going to the Cheesecake Factory because I've never been, I wanna go, and I'm going to be prettied up (so I want to flaunt it! Lol).
I dyed my hair myself for it and it actually came out good! No splotches! But the bathroom is destroyed... I cleaned it up but the fucking bathtub absorbed the color when it was washing out of my hair... shit! What the crap, dude?
I'm stoked about seeing the Killers in a few days, too. Next week is going to rooooock.

Favorite band EVER. LIKE EVER. I just bought tickets. I will have to remember to bring my binocularz even thought I'm not that far away. Hahaha. I want to be able to see Brandon Flower's eyelashes! D:<
Not really. Would weird me out, I think.
Seriously, I've never been to a concert. I have no idea how I'll react. I will probably do the same thing I do when I listen to them in the car... scream all the words at the top of my lungs. 8D And B is coming with, he's probably just going to comment that the band wears makeup. Only meaner. >:|
It's at Red Rocks, too, which is an awesome place. I've been there a few times, just not for a concert or anything.
I'M SO GETTING A T-SHIRT!
IN OTHER NEWS: I have a job interview in like 2 hours! Wooo!!

general crap, crap and more crap
Posted 16 years agoWe have this concrete walkway here at home, and to one side of it are these decorative pebbles. We're slowly moving them, we hate them. Anywho, one of them made it's way onto the walkway, I didn't see it cuz I was moving plants/had my vision obscured and I tripped on it. I bruised the bottom of my foot! WTF. It's the weirdest feeling EVER. Even though it hurts, I still poke at it just cuz it feels really fuckin' strange.
I wish I could go to AC. XD I would get so drunk. Then I'd try to act sober. Then I'd go on drunken adventures with people to McDonalds. Seems when I get drunk I go on adventures. I had a friend come pick me up once to take me to the liquor store so I could get more booze... and when I walked in, the cashier was like, "how are you doing?" and I laughed my head off. Then when I was paying I tried to sign and I failed and went off the receipt. I laughed at that, too. Then this other time I walked to the liquor store. In the ghetto. At 11 o'clock at night. Drunk. With my dog and two other drunk people. Not the smartest thing, but I lived, right? A guy came out of some bushes and offered to sell us some weed, though.
Plus, I think Pittsburgh is pretty. I think it's all the bridges and trees and shit. Whatever. I'll get drunk at RMFC.
I don't know what I'm going to do with myself. I can't seem to find a design job like I wanted. Or any job that isn't retail or food service. I don't even know how you GET a design job. All I do now is send my portfolio to people + my resume. Isn't working so well.
Gotta get out of retail. People drive me nuts. D: Need to make more money. Doing shit I want to do. Grah.

HI BILLY MAYS HERE
Posted 16 years agoNOOO! Billy Mays was awesome! Even more creepy that the LOTD was Billy Mays yesterday. He died today, right? So then it was just some spooky-ass coincidence, yes?
I am more bummed about his death than Michael Jackson. Remember, he was a pedo. Do we seriously need to honor that? And yeah, his music was good back in the day, but I think we should have held the funeral when his music died...
On Halo, my name was BillyMays. Was awesome to see "you got beat down by BillyMays" go across the screen. :D

OMG YOU GUYS
Posted 16 years agoWent camping this weekend with B and saw a TON of moose. Pretty neat shit.
Then I was walking Loki, saw another moosie, got a phonecall from B telling me the steaks were done.
Get back to the campsite and he's got this weird nervous smile on his face. I go over to him and say "why are you smiling like that?" He says, "I'm nervous. I don't know how to do this." To which I ask, "Do what?"
He says:
"Will you marry me?" and he pulls out this gorgeous white gold ring with a rock on it.
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDofcourseIsaidyes!

Adventures with Russell Broken Crow
Posted 16 years agoThis afternoon, like about 2 pm, I went and walked Loki. I'm up in da mountains, and there's a little trail next to a creek. I usually let Loki off his leash because there's rarely any people and he has a very reliable recall.
Anywho, Loki is sniffing something ahead of me when I spot a crow on the ground. He's kinda bouncing around, like birds do when they're not flying. I thought nothing of it. When we got closer, he was now trying to get away from us, and then the wind kicked up. It knocked him about, and I noticed his left wing was all gimpy. Loki hadn't noticed him, and I'm so thankful he didn't cuz I think he woulda hurt him more. Or pissed him off some. Loki went about his business and followed me when I went off the trail. I put him in a sit-stay as I took my jacket off and approached Russell Broken Crow. XD
As I got closer, he stopped trying to get away and just sat still. Loki broke his stay and came by my side, curious, but I wouldn't let him near the crow. I could see the crow's wing was all dicked up, but it wasn't a fresh wound. Prolly happened last night or so. There wasn't too much blood but he couldn't move it at all. I wrapped my jacket around him and picked him up. He didn't threaten me at all, which I thought was kinda weird.
Loki and I went back to the house, and I found a little box to put him in. I wrapped another towel around my jacket and he hung out. It was so cool being so close to a wild crow like that. His eyes were soooo pretty, too, a lovely copper brown. Never seen a crow blink, either. He did open his beak at me once when I was putting him in the box... that was kinda cool, too... lookin' at everything up close like that. He had a purple tongue. XD
I didn't wrap his head up in the towel, I didn't want him over heating and he seemed pretty calm anyways. He watched like everything I did, very calmly... almost curious. So I called up the US Fish and Wildlife people, and they were really helpful. Though they said they weren't sure what they could do for him... kinda worried me. I didn't want them to just put him down, ya know?
So B comes home. B doesn't like crows/ravens. Says they're just rats with wings. I disagree... I mean, sure, maybe the city crows aren't as healthy, but we're up and away from the city. Dun think it counts. Anywho, he starts asking me how my day was and I go, "OHHH DON'T BE MAD AT ME!" kinda jokingly. He starts asking what I mean, and I lead him over to the closet, where I left Mr. Crow in his box. I remove some of the towel and he goes, "A CROW. A CROW IN MY BEDROOM!!! WHYYYY IS THERE A CROW?!?!?!" I put my best puppy-dog eyes on and start telling him how I found him. He goes, "ooooooooooooh okaaaaaay fine, as long as you didn't ask if you could keep him." (yeah, I know it's illegal to do so, that's one of the reasons why I called USFWS).
He goes and tells his roomies (cuz he thinks it's kinda funny) and they all say the same thing. He also asks me why I didn't just shoot it. You can hunt crows, there's no limit on the numbers, either. But it's like... gah... I love corvids... why would I want to shoot it?
The USFWS lady shows up to pick him up, and also notes how docile he was. Even though he bit her when she was closing the box, haha. I told her all the details of how I found him and she lets me know that sometimes, all they need is a little TLC for a couple days and they're able to fly again. Or if they can't help it, they place him in a sanctuary with other birds who can't fly and it's all groovy. I'm glad he's not beyond help and stuff. :3
I wasn't even sure if I should pick him up or not. Whether I should just let nature take it's course or not. But I thought about the dogs I see sometimes down there and definitely the kids I see. I figured they'd hurt him more with rocks and sticks and I couldn't let that happen. D:

Posted 16 years agoI've been told by quite a few cats that I should probably up my prices on my commissions a little. I spend a lot of time on my pictures... and it's not like they suck. They're fabulous. I improve like... everytime I pick up a pencil! XD
I'll be updating my shit publicly later. As well as an art dump. I have a lot to upload.
My membership stuff for the NRA came. Woooo. Not entirely sure about it, though. Also, lookie what I'm getting for my b-day:
http://www.remington.com/products/f.....70_express.asp
Then I can say, "GIT OFFA MAH PROPERTAY!" *click click*
I think it would be cool to put together a portfolio or calendar of "furries with guns." Furries are fun to draw. Guns are fun to draw. But I would like for it not to be porn. And not just of my charries. I don't think there'd be much of a demand for not-porn. :/
Going to try my best to make it to RMFC. I want to get a little table and stuff, so I can sell shit. Also, what's the policy on selling prints? Like if I wanted to sell stuff that I drew of other people's characters, my commissions, for example. Is that acceptable? I'm pretty sure it'd be ok, but I dunno.

Posted 16 years agoI have been drawing all day. Working on homework, my commissions and then the sketchbook commission... it's...woo. But I am so like... inspired or something to just draw. It's hard to put a pencil down.
I am so pooped, but I love days like this. Now I am gonna go do something for me.
I'm also super inspired to do sequential work. I suck at writing. But I want to do something epic. I just don't know what. Not necessarily furry art, either, but definitely something with animals. And serious. Yes. D:< I've been thinking of trying to network with artists here in Denver (possibly via Craigslist) to put together a comic. But again, I don't have any ideas. D: I did have one idea for a comic YEARS ago... I even put the first chapter on a storyboard. But I think it needs a complete overhaul if it's gonna be any good. And then Kosi and I had a comic idea, which I still like, but. Iunno. Outside of the furry community, furries are kinda looked down upon and I'd want to make something that would rock people's socks and... not be frowned upon. Which sucks. Drawin' anthros are fun.
Alas. I do not know. All of my paragraphs start with "I." Hahaha.
I'm gettin' tired. D:

Posted 17 years agoHai guys.
Not much is new, working on art... I have a lot due. I'm trying to get that sketchbook done (I have 16 blank pages left and about 8 I need to complete) as well as my only commission right now. It's kicking my ass, I've had to restart the background like 4 times! It's a macro pic, so I have to draw shit destroyed... soooo not my strong point. It sorta makes me want to make my own macro pic, although I'm not into giant people. *shrugs*

Controversial Memememe
Posted 17 years ago[01] Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey?
MAYBE!
[02] Would you do meth if it was legalized, and become a strung-out, whithered hust of a man/woman you are now?
No, shit like that doesn't interest me.
[03] Abortion: for or against it?
I think it's the woman's choice. I also think that kids today need better sex education from like... their parents. Possibly even... GUIDANCE! Ya know, as opposed to the sexually charged TV.
[04] Do you think the world would fail with a female president?
Uhh, no. If she were stable and not a psychobitch. Buuuut like half of all the women I know are. O_O
[05] Do you believe in the death penalty?
Yeah. Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. Or, make jail more... unpleasant. Somethin'.
[06] Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Haha, I really don't care. Not interested in it myself, but I'd worry about like... being harassed when I walk my dog, a rise in DUIs and... the general population's IQ dropping.
[07] Are you for or against premarital sex?
Eh... it's touchy. I think you should do whatever you want, but then... you should be careful, you know?
[08] Do you believe in God?
Not the Christian's version, no. But there's something out there bigger than all of us, I think.
[09] Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Yeah, I don't see what the big deal is, anyways.
[10] Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA?
Little bit. Where I live now, everything's in Spanish. I can't talk to my neighbors cuz they don't know English. I had an incident with one of them tonight (my dog scared the shit out of my neighbor's son, and he started CRYING. My dog barked and play-bowed!) and when I went to try to tell them he won't bite, he's nice, the mother gave me the stink-eye! And I couldn't explain myself cuz they have noooo idea what I'm saying! It wouldn't bother me if I could communicate, but I'm not going to go learn Spanish. D:
[11] A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it?
I think the parents should kick her ass. And yeah, she's gonna have to.
[12] Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen?
I don't see why not. I swear I'm the only one who waited to 21 to drink and by then, no one my age cares anymore.
[13] Should the war in Iraq be called off?
We need to do something. I feel like we're stalling now.
[14] Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?
I think it depends on the situation. If an emo teenager wants out, I'd say, "hell no, suck it up!" but if a terminally ill person wants it I don't see why not.
[15] Do you believe in spanking your children?
Yes. Not beating, no.
[16] Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
I would, it's just a flag. We can go get another.
[17] Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama?
Neither. >.>
[18] Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Not really, but I don't want to get nagged. Oi.
[19] The President has been kidnapped by NINJAS! Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the President??
Hahaha, ninjas? I don't think I'd care because... lets see, who's president right now and what was my answer to number 17? Maybe if like... Steve Irwin was. Oh god, that's be weird. O.O;;
MAYBE!

I think all of my fabulous clean shit's gonna go there. Porn goes here.
I love the link of the day today.
PS: Did anyone go to the Rocky Mountain Furcon last year or the year before? I'm thinking about going this year and getting a table and possibly volunteering (their website says they're in trouble) because I will have money this year and I live in Denver now.
I just... don't want to be the only one there. o.o

this is what bumpers are for!
Posted 17 years agoSo I've moved into the new house, right? It reminds me a lot of the house you first get in Animal Crossing. I had to call out of work yesterday to get a ton of stuff done while B was here (because he has the larger vehicle and we had choices to make) and we didn't get everything done. He had to go back up to the mountains (now only and hour away :D) and I get to hang out here and do my thing. Just a couple more large things to get, a fridge and a washer and dryer.
Another note on work: it's now 40 minutes away and I only work two days this week. It's almost pointless to keep going down there. My friend only works one next week, and I'm not even on that schedule!! WTF! So I'm going job hunting later... the Petsmart over here is hiring. :3 I swear, like half of my paycheck will go back to the store. And it's next to an okay-ish Chinese food place.
B let me get a new betta fishie. He's this cute peachy-pink color, but half of his fins are clear. I'm not sure if it's due to some bacterial infection or what, but they look cool. They're also really long, so are his little swimming fins behind his head. They look like elf ears. :3 Ergo loves living here now. He's the only cat and it's QUIET here. No loud people with neurotic dogs . I love it, too. 8D
The neighbors tend to keep to themselves, we have like 50 and only one has come over to his side of the fence to say hi. I don't like neighbors... I'd rather be miles from people, but this is okay. We're gonna put up privacy fencing in the spring... so... I dunno, I just don't want the neighbors looking at me like I'm crazy when I go play with my dog. OH DOG PARKS I MUST FIND SOME!
I don't care for the back alley. I was pulling out of the garage, and I thought I had like 3 more feet, but I didn't and I bumped the fence. D: Good thing I had like a cocoon of ice and snow (I know, probably not that great).

Don't make the behbeh cry
Posted 17 years agoBehbeh cries fiery lead tears.
B bought me a Desert Baby Eagle. Yeahh google that shit. Bought for me so I can protect my shit and myself in my new house. Er. Our shit and our house. :D
So I've been to the shooting range a couple times and it's a lot of fun. Also I will be moving within the next few weeks so I might not be here so much.
Me and
kosi-ukami and B and Jack Daniels are partying and it's kinda hard to type right now. D:
Happy 2009!!!
