OH HOLY KNIGHTS, MAN, IT'S ANOTHER CHRISTMAS D88888 Means I'm closing in on four years, somewhere hereabouts, on this wondiferous little art site. With, what, six deviations?

*shank self*

How's that for productivity, aye?

Secondarily:

My parents go me a laptop. WHAT. His name is Sam-. The - was an accident. Truly and honestly. BUT ALAS, NOW I CAN WRITE IN... ODD PLACES. Such as the... er... toilet? Wouldn't that be awkward. Ha. Ah ha ha. Heheheh. Ho ho.

Ho-ho~.

Am totally currently posting from the floor. Of the room with the tree in it. I LIKE FLOORS, SH'UP. D8

Ack, my screen just shrunk and I dunno what I did. Alas. That's what I get for erm, gloating, I guess. D8

But Sam- shall hopefully last me through college.

So long as Windows doesn't update with, like. WINDOWS 8 OR ANYTHING YOU TITS ARGARGHARGHARGHARGHDON'TDOITISAY.

Because 7's kinda rockin' mah socksies. Yes, that's right.

Thirdly and most importantaly.

Hopefully, as I'm on break, there'll be some massive dump of some kind. Meaning my dA might actually have all that I've done for the last three years... from my sketchbook... not that that's a lot, really, just, at least then I won't feel so horrendously procrastinator-y.

Fourth, I just realized that there's a lot of Charlie, recently. Oh, fuck.

Fifth, I shall be installing my DIRECTX 19 GRAPHICS CARD MUWAHAHHAHAAHAAAA TF2 GET READY FOR AN IDIOT! *bonzai!* (Hey look, my screen resized... I can read what I'm spewing again o-o And yes, I know a graphics card isn't actually known by it's content, but, um, I don't want to type out the name of the damn thing because the box is all stylized and riddled with numbers and letters in varying states of capitalization, so the thing is, I don't rightly remember which or what the damn thing's name is. :/ *lame*

So it shall be: The Damn Thing. (Of Much Blessed Qualities)

Also: I am now in possession of a belt. Small thing, maybe, but, oh my god baaaaaby! *dances victoriously, with much hip wiggling and such*

And now, to draw, read, and tinker, and perhaps make m'self a suitable, non-standard desktop. Rivets and oxidizing metal is only so interesting for so long.

So...


HAPPY CHRISTMASSSSS EVERYBODYYYYYYYYYY 8DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

...So, my dad's amazing. He Googled "my iPod died", got a few "iPods that won't reboot" results, and the first link told him to whack it against something twice while pressing a button combination, and TINK. Apple screen. *facedesk*

Et, voila. iPod revival.

Uh... Apparently my iPod drained itself of battery in an hour to the point of electronic fatal exhaustion. o-o' Now I feel like a negligent iMommy and twice as stupid as girls who bawl over lost cell phones.*






*Note: this bawling is always because they're UNABLE TO TEXT. Always.

After three years of loyal, lyrical companionship, my iPod Nano - third or fourth generation, 4GB - has officially died. It happened approximately nine-thirty AM this morning, confirmed by an Official five minutes ago.

It's had a digital cold or something the last month; I've had to reset it twice in just that time alone. I should've recognized the signs, I guess.

And I've always thought people crying when they lost their cell phones were stupid, but... Damn. I guess that makes me more stupid than I thought.

Well. o-o I didn't sleep for thirty-six hours, and in that time I caught up on all my dA shit. And guess what?

I'm going to keep it that way.

New Year's Resolution #3: Be Active on DeviantART. (#2 was to get caught up XDD *laem*) I intend to keep it up. I've got a tablet now, so I've really got no excuse X'D Other than Life, maybe, but I don't have one of those anyway. XDD

So yes. I'm back.

Or here, rather, because everything that Came Before is Shit. But I'll keep it up as a reminder and incentive to bury it in the bowels of greatness so it can act up occasionally and remind me Not To Suck.
