I just want to sleep for another week. Why did I agree to go to work Monday and possibly Tuesday? Oh yeah...cause I'm nice and money pays my rent :-P I am just so tired this semester and everything surrounding it has chewed me up and spit me out. School and work and no time for a social life and minimal sleep. Christmas was nice, my brother spoiled everyone rotten. He LOVES to watch people open stuff and he gave me some great gifts:) but oh man the energy to open everything he even wrapped a single button, and a single zipper pull and I was getting sick mondayish and so Christmas day i was sick and I just wanted to fall asleep in my chair instead of opening the mountain of packages. My mom got me a lot of little toiletry things in my stocking per usual :) Also got a nice bathrobe which i needed and yay a new coffee maker that has no carafe for me and the roomie to shatter, it's one of those you push your cup under it and it dispenses into your cup! Speaking of appliances lol my brother's girlfriend gave me a blender so yay smoothies or drinks requiring a blender yay! The highlights from my brother's xmas bag of doom are some really awesome books that I am completely blanking out on other than the Alex Ross art book Mythology :) woot


My mom and I saw despereaux yesterday and awww it was so cute I liked it, a slow start but very enjoyable. I was surprised how few people were in the theater, especially kids. Either way it was nice to have a day out with my mom, I miss getting to spend time like that with her on a regular basis.

The school jerked me around for about a month about my transfer credits almost keeping me from graduating for some insignificant 3 credit gen ed requirement that should have been taken care of with my AA from VCC. Well lo and behold a few days before graduation they figured out what the glitch was and said I was good to go as long as I passed my classes. So I'm graduated! I knew I was graduating with honors but I wasn't sure what level I'd received. So when I looked in the program for the graduation I was pleased to see I'd earned Magna Cum Laude. So now that I've earned my BA it is on to grad school come January. I'm registered for 2 classes I need and waiting to hear from my adviser about what kind of elective I need to add to make myself full time.

I GOT INTO MY GRAD SCHOOL PROGRAM! YAY!  I'M SO EXCITED! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I do not advise waiting till the last minute to read a book for a lit class. Even awesome books are painful to read when you have 500pages and don't start reading till 7 or 8 pm.

This election was amazing and filled me with pride for not only our state but our country.

My presidential choice won, that was so exciting. I was literally giddy and giggling at points, then a little misty eyed at others. You could hear people celebrating till probably twoish in the morning :) It was truly an amazing day.

I am however sad to say that my write in candidate for Osceola County Sheriff lost. Mr. Ted Kord lost to the incumbent Bob Hansell.  Lets face it. This was an uphill battle for Ted anyway, Bob has been with the Osceola County Sheriff's dept since the 70s and the man has worked in and supervised almost every area of the agency including the SWAT team. I however believd that Ted's amazing dectetive skills, snazzy wardrobe and the fact that he brings with him The Bug would help garner him a good following but it seems that only 1% of the vote mannaged to go to the write in. I like to believe that all 1484 of those votes are for an Osceola county that could have been policed by officers in replica's of The Bug. Though both Ted and I are gracious losers so I tip my hat to you Bob for an excellent race, make Osceola county a better place to live sir! We'll be watching.

Today was a good day

Yay for Halloween! Look at the awesome. I loved it. the emblem on the shirt could use some work but I'm otherwise happy, it's not like I'm cosplaying in it evar.

So I'm working on my halloween costume. Needs to be totally done by friday... early saturday by the latest for steph's party. I'm super lame so I'm trying to be my favorite super hero Blue Beetle II (Ted Kord). This is where I'm at so far with it.


I got some steampunk goggles that I'm in love with and I am convinced I want to make/get some steampunk clothing for something in the future

I've got fabric to do some boot covers and gloves and ideally I'd like to get his chest symbol onto the shirt but the chest symbol i'm struggling with

ugh so much school work so little time

Yep. You heard it my birthday was epic! I spent the day before the actual birthday with my family. We had some yummy kebabs and cookie cake. It was just kind of a nice lazy day with the family and my mom helped me finish Brent's quilt. My mom knows what a little kid I am so she decided that my 'party' needed to be themed and had batman plates, batman and joker napkins & table cloth and a spiderman balloon bouquet. My mom is so cute that she was kinda upset that she couldn't find a batman balloon and she had to settle for spiderman lol

I'm currently locked in my room while lycaonvulpes and manofbats decorate the apartment for birthday extravaganzaness... I've gotta be honest here. I'm more than a little scared.

OMG I finally finished manofbats  quilt. It came out pretty cool and I'm mostly pleased with it. The bats are the only thing that really displease me. They were difficult to cut out correctly and eventually I just kind of gave up on getting them perfect. They're good enough and I'm pretty sure manofbats  is pleased with it.

All wrapped up and ready to go.

I'm done with summer classes now! So I have this weird thing called free time. It shall be great.

Went to a midnight show last night. Got home at 3:30, need to be ready for work in like 20mins but it was so worth it. That movie kicked my ass. You should all go see it now. It was just guh awesome and I shall not give spoilers but wooo so good. Also having seen it I'm very sad we'll never get to see the Joker again in this Batman Franchise, Heath Ledger was fucking awesome as a bat shit insane joker. Also woo for blasting Golden Tusk's Batman Theme song while we were in the parking garage of the theatre :)

Mad scientist in love, random songs. you'll love it. No really, you should watch Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Like now. I'll wait...  Ok so really you should watch it because it's Neil Patrick Harris as a mad scientist who bursts into random Broadway style songs, what is not to love about that? Well, I'm amused anyway.

Wooo! I finally finished all the course work on friday for one of my online classes and am totally done with it yay! Now I have just a final left for the other that I can take Wednesday or Friday and I will be done for the summer! Meaning free weekend to do stuff other than school work!

Work has been going awesome I just got a raise and a bonus because we had an awesome week. I'm a dork so part of the bonus went to some cute custom earings this woman makes with polomer clay and some really nerdy sleep pants! No, really they're very nerdy... They've got a pattern consisting of  batman, flash,superman, green lantern, and aquaman on them plus all their super hero symbols hehe :)

I SAW HELLBOY II LAST NIGHT AND IT WAS SO FUCKING AWESOME AND MADE OF WIN THAT I WOULD TOTALLY GO SEE IT AGAIN IF ANYONE WANTS TO CAUSE OMG SO GREAT! I won't go into spoilery rants but it was fan fuckingtastic and I'm ready for a third movie like right now or as xtina says a fifthilogy lol

Just got back from the Dethklok concert. My ears are ringing, my voice raw and I feel like I'm going to hurl. It was fucking awesome. The hurling has nothing to do with the concert, I woke up this morning feeling ill... I still feel ill, illness however was not enough to keep me away from Jannus Landing. dark997895, lycaonvulpesand I went and the show was amazing, Soylent Green opened, followed by Chimaira. dark997895and I watched them from the back while lycaonvulpes ran around all over the place moshing. Then when Dethklok was to come on she found us again, we went closer to the front and just rocked out. God dam the show was awesome, just so kick ass man. Speaking of kick and ass. Dood, While dethklok was on these three girls came out of no where and a space opend up like a mosh next to us so lycaonvulpespushed me out of the way (thanks snookums) cause I was A ill and B i dont mosh... so anyway the three girls kick the shit out of this guy, it looked like moshing at first sorta except that it lasted so not long enough and the guy dropped to the gound in a fetal position. They broke his fucking nose (his nose looked really fucked up and he was just covered in blood) and he could barely walk  so some guys helped him out of the crowd. After that the show continued to be pretty awesome for us, a couple of encores and just dood it was fucking great so fucking great like woah

Dethklock = <3

Edit: FUCK, did I forget to mention the guest drummer from Cannibal Corpse? I did? Well fuck, it was awesome, now it has been said

Ugh god, I'm so tired. It's just been long weeks and lots of work. Not that work is bad, work is still awesome just 40hrs a week plus trying to do my summer classes makes me super tired. That and it has been rainy as fuck these past couple weeks and as much as I enjoy the rain it's just making me well sleeping like a lot. Anyway, the real reason for this post was to share with you the level of awesome that is my boss las week. So a bottle of purple conditioner faded into a shade of green and she was trying to pawn it off on me because it's my favorite scent. The ting is though she already pawned several off on me and as much as I love the scent I just can't use that much conditioner. So I joked or xtina joked that we should call it hulk berry and give it to our comic shop guy. Our boss though this was hysterical so she printed a sheet of clear scent tags that we needed and added one HULK-berry to it. We stuck it on the bottle and that was it. Except our boss went... "Well, you know our labels are too girly we should make a hulk label for that conditioner and then you can give it to him." So she spent a 15 minutes redesigning our conditoner labels to have 'manly' shades and a hulk picture on them. She was very pleased with herself till she realized that conditioner needs matching shampoo! So she was going to scent some shampoo and make it the same shade of faded green. BUT she just wasn't pleased with the idea of giving a boy the berry scent, she was worried that this elaborate joke wouldn't be as fun if it wasn't a scent that our comic shop guy liked. So she had xtina call and ask him what scents he liked. Maybe xtina will regale you all with that conversation in the comment section here but my god it had me laughing so hard that tears were streaming down my face. So we find out that scott (the comic guy) likes beachy scents and pina-colada. So the boss pumps out the last of the pina-colada conditioner and colors it green and tells me to bottle it. Then she cleans the bottle and makes some island scent, colors it green and has me bottle that. Then she makes the island shampoo and colors it radioactive green and we bottle that. The shampoo is literally the color of the nickelodeon slime. So she runs off to redo our mens shampoo label to ensure that this one scent tag joke becomes ten bottles of shampoo and ten of conditioner lol.. totally ridiculous and unnecessary. So everyone at work go to take home some HULK-island shampoo and conditioner and we gave our comic guy HULK-island and HULK-colada stuff... That my friends it what you do when you're caught up on orders and want to have a fun afternoon! You turn something small into something big and unnecessary but totally fun :)

Have some pics of the awesome

Sadly my photo taking skills suck but eh ya know it still can be seen....

This is Scott. He's our comic guy... The copyright infringement that would occur if we sell this shampoo and conditioner makes him angry as he thinks we should sell it... Oh Scott we do sell it! Just without the hulk.



I also got myself and awesome bracelet custom made. It makes me smile with nerdy glee.
The photos again suck balls, but ya know eventually i'll learn how to take good pictures

Woo.. lame. Summer semester hath begun and I dropped one of my courses for it's extreme hate of students which translates to that it had  every assignment as group work. Not just one big group project but  every weeks homework (for an online class) had to be group work. I don't have that kind of time to devote to an online class. My others are going fine.
