.: i'm sure the view from heaven :.

Ye gods, am I hungry.

And there is nothing suitable to eat in this house. *gnashes teeth* I'm going to have to FORAGE or something, goddamn little brother eats every damn thing... okay, that's not entirely the case as the Boy has been acting pretty odd lately, but he's a convient scapegoat. (How does one scape a goat, actually? Wait, I probably don't want that answered...)

I guess I'll go out to eat. :/ I dislike going out by myself, I feel silly but I am so goddamned sick of McDonalds and its ilk it ain't even funny. I'll find something to eat later and languish here in the meantime.

Meant to work some art last night but fell asleep on the keyboard upstairs. Eh heh heh. I am frustrated with my AMV because I ran out of hard drive space and it's not done. :O Have to burn stuff off, Bleach will probably be the first thing to be sacrificed to the CD gods. And while I'm at it I should prolly redownload earlier FMA episodes since my computer thinks they're corrupted when I try to extract scenes from them, but will play them in Media Player. Go figure. Wish I could find'em raw, would make my life easier.

*does a happy dance* Someone found my alchemy notebook and gave it back to me! The fact that they knew it was mine without a name inside of it rather frightens me. I'd print out more texts but my mom started to notice my gratitious paper usage. ^^; Ah, who the hell cares, I want to read The Book of Abraham the Jew tonight at work. I've convinced half the people I work with I'm completely insane, which is fine by me because it means they leave me alone. Of course, I've made some allies (I hesitate to call them 'friends' because we don't hang out or even see each other outside of work. I really need to work on that, I'm going out of my head with no one to hang out with.), one of which called me an 'automail freak' when I teased him about being short. He was the one complaining that a bunch of girls were taller than him. Me, an automail freak?! The nerve! I hit him in the face with a hanger, it made me feel better.

Yes, speaking of work I have to go back to that unholy place tonight. Twelve hours of overtime on my night off. Fuckin' a. Upside: REALLY GOOD PAYCHECK AHEAD. Downside: AUGH I HATE THAT PLACE WITH THE BURNING PASSION OF A THOUSAND FIERY SUNS. But, it's not like I have anything better to do. :/ Well, I could work on cleaning out my room/selling my stuff, but it's not like it's going anywhere. Or I could find my Munich!Ed coat and finish that. Or bust open that suitcase, I still have to do that. Ack.

I hope to have enough money saved up to get a new phone before the convention. I hate being cell-phone-less, because it means I can't talk to people at night since my parents go to bed way earlier than is natural. Of course, 'bedtime' to me is six-thirty-a.m., so that's relatively speaking.

I think I'll watch the couple of episodes of Tide-line Blue I've got on this computer, then go find some food and do my best Ed impersonation, because DAMMIT I'M HUNGRY and aside from some mint ice cream I had nothing to eat yesterday. *_* I didn't notice until I went to bed and my stomach told me I'd betrayed it again, foolish mortal. >.>

And, randomly, Inner!Kenshin is having way too much fun having Alphonse around. Of Inner!Edward, there is no sign and that terrifies me.

[Edit] It rained all day yesterday stop looking at me like that; so maybe tomorrow I can go excavate some more into that hill to find the time capsule. I didn't make much progress the last time I tried, but dammit, they buried it by a bunch of trees nigh on forty years ago. ROOTS ARE NOT MY FRIEND. Neither are raccoons, for that matter. Or the giant rats deer that populate the area, although I saw three yesterday in the rain. They were cute, as long as they weren't trying to cross the goddamn highway at six in the fucking morning.

Okay, clearly I missed something. I've seen about seven or eight references to (recent) wank on fm_alchemist, and I am completely out of the loop because I can't figure out what the hell they're referring to. While I don't usually participate in wanks, I do like the loop and being in it is a good thing. Could someone explain to me what that was about/what started it? I'm just curious and don't feel like digging through the comm itself.

Second order of business: why the hell am I wired right now? I never did take those naps, so I'm running on, um ... three hours and forty some-odd minutes of sleep, and right now I feel like I could do laps around the house. I'd blame it on the caffinene, but... that would require me to have ingested some in the last few hours. I had a Pepsi at dinner, which was about six hours ago. Huh. Maybe I'll take the dog for a walk.

I worked on my coat some, yay progress. I completely fucked up the pockets and will have to redo them. *snarls* As I do not have anything terribly important to do tomorrow save for cleaning up my living-mess in preperation of my aunt's family's iminient return, I will probably work on that a great deal more. I'd watch more Mirage of Blaze but that requires paying attention to the screen since I end up rolling around on the floor in tears of mirth after watching the dub and try as I might my comprehension of spoken Japanese just... isn't that good.

But I got work done on it, and there are sleeves now and it doesn't look TOO shabby. The pockets though, are irritating the shit out of me. *gnaws* I also apparently threw out my instructions, which is lovely. Watch me wing it, everybody!

Watched the second disk of Firefly while working on coat. Amusement reigns. Incidentally, I want a Simon of my very own, to poke and watch flail. He's quite amusing.

Worked a bit on some more fanart, I've decided I'm psychotic and occasionally on crack.

Also, actually wrote some on Warped Mirrors. Whee! Maybe I'll be able to push the story back onto the track it was on. Also wrote some on my random FMA fic which I'm not sure WHAT it's about. Really, I don't know. All I know is that it's post-show, AU for the movie and Edward is rather pissed at me. He's also quite concussed, so he's not quite sure what way is up at the moment. I need to learn how to write short fics. It's a talent I apparently lack.

Also, I had a random dream in my whole three hours of sleep that my plushie was talking to me. Um, yeah. That's ... special.

Well, the drive home tonight was far more interesting than it should have been. >.> I had a police escort. Seriously. There was a Ft. Thomas cop car BEHIND me, in FRONT of me and in the lane next to me. From the exit all the way to my aunt's house. Besides those three, I saw no less than FIVE additional cop cars. What the frell is going on around here? I've never SEEN so many cop cars.

So, food time. I've got a huge black lab sitting and breathing on my elbow because I'm eating, and Inuyasha is on. *is actually watching it, for once* Also, I realized I was mentally narrating my life tonight. As in, if I was writing it as a story. I need a vacation. An extended one, and stat.

I ordered the new Edward plush yesterday. *glees quietly* I need an Alphonse plush.

Also, Inner!Kenshin and Inner!Edward need to hush up.

Last night Thomas and Scott and I all worked at the same table, it was ... entertaining, to say the least. Conversations bounced from MMPORPGs to anime to politics to religion to anime and back through about ten different cycles of things. At one point, we were discussing the crackiness that is Scientology and making fun of it and the questions the interviewer asks, which led to "Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?"

To which Thomas completely deadpans. "I've danced with the devil in the pale moonlight. Then he got frisky and tried to touch my butt, so I punched him in the face."

Okay, it was funnier if you were there. :P

Then we hung around and chatted and Scott asked what area I live in, so I told him Ft. Thomas. They both stopped and STARED at me. "You ... went to HIGHLANDS?"

9.9 "Yeah, I was a cake-eater, all right? I fucking hated that place."

So we spent the rest of the night talking about high school, our school's rivalries and shit like that. Scott went to Newport and couldn't, for the life of him, remember his school's mascot. Thomas went to Dixie. And then it turns out the guy behind us graduated from Highlands in '04, so he knew my brother. On top of that, he lives like two streets away from me. Wow, it's a small world.

Now, I'm gonna look at cell phone plans, and apartments because I've decided I want to move out. Like, soon. It's easier for me to save money when I'm living off of myself, believe it or not. My biggest issue is moving out by myself, but I think I can handle it. *starts looking at apartments*

I'm going to whine about the FMA movie in every post until I get to see it. *WHINE*

( Silly quiz, as if there was ever any doubt... )

Also, I completely lost my binder full of alchemy text print-outs. DAMMIT. *cuddles notebook*

PS: The "From Russia With Love" game coming out for PS2 looks SO FRIKKIN' AWESOME. I can't even BEGIN to explain how cool it is. And Connery did the voice for Bond! (Never mind the fact that Bond ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE SEAN CONNERY OMG!) It is going to kick worlds of ass.
