Life news:
Work is sucking the life out of me this week. Literally. I feel like I'm fading. I'm sick & working overtime & I have a crazy deadline. I'll be working all weekend.

I did actually make it out to the SG book signing at Mission Comics, though! I didn't get very many pics since I was busy chatting away. If you have some pics, let me know!

Here's Nixon in super cute cat-print dress.


And then I managed to get a shot of Rigel, Radeo, Buellher, and Rambo


I got to chat a lot with Nixon & Thora, who I hadn't seen in ages! Thora got way more shots than I did of the night. They're over on her blog. Here's my favorite though, cuz look at that awesome blue hair!


And I had a great time at benders hanging out with Yoyo (who is itty bitty & so cute!) and everyone else!

Thanks to everyone who came out, it was fun!

This winter I'm planning to go to London! I'm already, thinking of other places to go, like Prague, and Berlin, and Munich. Maybe I'll do a day in Paris. I want to take a million pictures! I'm finally at the place in my job where I've paid off enough old debt, and earned enough vacation time, that I can take a trip. I'm so excited.

Work is going really well; I love my job.

I've been pretty damn lazy about having a social life, though. Hopefully that will pick up when I do a recreation league with my coworkers and get out every week for some kickball, volleyball, and other various team sports. Everything would be easier if I actually lived in the city, but the city is ridiculously expensive. I wish I had a car.

I'm trying to be more healthy in general lately. My boyfriend and I are in the groove of mastering home-cooked meals. By that I mean my boyfriend is mastering home-cooked meals. I'm still not that great at cooking. I really don't like anything to do with the kitchen. I don't like grocery shopping, or doing the dishes, or cooking, or any of that. I will do it, I just don't want to or like to. It's terrible, because if he is ever on a trip, it's back to boxed dinners for me.

I've tried Yoga recently and I've really enjoyed it, so I'd like to continue. I started the Couch to 5k running app to bump up my cardio. And now that I have a regular sleeping schedule, I'm starting to actually be able to take time to get dressed well in the morning, instead of scrambling into the cleanest thing and running a comb through my hair.
Evidence:


I got new glasses the other day, and HOLY FUCK GLASSES ARE EXPENSIVE. I hate having terrible eyes, for obvious reasons. Oh well, I think they look sexy in black and white.

Hi Friends! I'm trying to win a walk on role to a silly show I love. If you could vote for my video, that would be awesome! I don't believe the most votes wins the role, they'll probably choose whomever they want no matter what. But votes can help me get seen by more people!

Thanks so much for your help!

So, in life, I went to Night Market recently. That was interesting. I've never been before. Apparently Bay Area artists rent trucks & set up themed experiences inside them for a night.


I got to see a screening of Hitchcock at Skywalker Ranch. Unfortunately it was already getting dark by the time we got up there, so I didn't get to enjoy the full beauty of the property, but the theater was the most beautiful, best sounding theater I've ever been in. Hitchcock was brilliant, and the Q&A after with the director made me instantly like him a lot. He's funny and humble.


Saw Louis C.K. on Thursday and he was absolutely brilliant! My favorite comedian currently (and possibly all time). I enjoy how he infuses logical feminism into his bits. He was playing at the Symphony Hall, which I wasn't rude enough to snap a pic during the show, but the before I took a picture of the beautiful hall.


And I'm in Colorado for the holiday! The flight over was beautiful. The California coast is stunning, as always.


I'm chillin' on my parents' couch, waiting until I can walk up the street and get a hella cheap hour-long massage.


Excited to eat some pie and turkey on Thursday, meet up with my old friends on Friday night, and enjoy my week off!

Hey guys. If you could do me a huge favor by reporting this photographer's page for racist, hate speech. I'd appreciate it.

She originally posted work using a First Nations/Native American headdress. When kindly explained why the photo could be considered racist, her response was "I don't give a shit."



To report her page you can follow these steps.

On the page's main pulldown menu:


Select report page, then continue


Then select "It shouldn't be on Facebook," then continue


Then select "Hate speech," as well as "Targets race or ethnicity" from the pulldown, then continue


Then hit the "Report to facebook" checkbox, (make sure you uncheck sending her a message) then continue


You can also flag her individual posts and images.

Please do not threaten her, tell her to "go kill herself" or any other hateful thing. That does not help. She has already expressed that any reasoning with her doesn't make a difference. Simply report her page, please.


The headdress thing was insensitive to me, but the actual racist responses she's replied with when called on it (some of which have been deleted before I could get screengrabs, unfortunately) are completely offensive. I would really appreciate it if you could report her. Here's the initial response on her tumblr.

Oh man, I really don't update much anymore.
Life is good. I work, I sleep, I listen to music. All in all, fairly boring actually.

What's new?

Oh yeah! I went to hitRECord's Fall Formal in Los Angeles, in October. I got to see Anne Hathaway, Neil Patrick Harris, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, & Sia. Best of all, I got to meet one of my all time idols, the one Mr. Gary - fucking - Oldman!


He was sitting 6 rows up from me. It was a really good time. Most of my pics can be found here.

LA was fun! I loved the weather. Stayed in Silverlake where the view was gorgeous.


Halloween was fun. I didn't do a costume this year so I did my fallback of Dia De Los Muertos makeup.


I went home for Thanksgiving. I hadn't seen my family in over a year! I hadn't been back in over two! I love my famdamnly!

And now the Holidays are coming up and I don't have any plans. Well, I have to work for some of the days. But Since my office is closed for renovations, I'll have almost a week free. I've never had that before! What will I do?!

Well, that's all for now. Cheers!

I'm moving!!!

I'm so excited about this! I'm not moving far away from my current location, but it's definitely a nicer area, where you don't get mugged at knife-point, or walk into armed robberies, or deal with riots, or can't walk outside past 8pm.

Also, there is a pool. And I'll live by a beach. And I can walk to groceries and the pet store. And, pretty much, this is the best location ever! Unless there's a huge earthquake, then I might be screwed. But whatever! New Apartment!!!!

So I'm packing now, which always sucks, but all of that is fine because I get to move the fuck out of here!

In other news my review at my job went well, they still like me, so I get to keep making money and doing work I actually enjoy!

It's been fucking hot as hell in the Bay Area these last few weeks, which has been wondrous for my goal of eating out in the park, enjoying the sun.

My cat is still spastic and thoroughly entertaining.

And my hair is super long. It's down to my boobs now. I kind of love it.
