Just filled out the dating profile thinger.

I mention this only because it's a pretty huge fucking step for me. Generally I'm of the mind that Love Happens, and so I've been sitting around for over a year waiting for it because I feel like if I were to go out and seek it, or force it, it wouldn't actually be real. But waiting for...

I wish you all could have seen the sky this morning.

On the mornings of November 4th and 5th, Venus and Jupiter were one degree apart from one another; that is, if you were to hold your pinky out at arm's length, you could cover them both. I didn't know about this until yesterday, when my dad told me. I was exhausted last night,...

Yay for still more awesome new iconage! Embrace the wings. Love the wings. BE the wings.

Be the wings or die, mother fuckers.

I have not written this paper on The House of the Seven Gables.

Why? Because I have no idea what the hell I'm supposed to do.

Why? Because we never really talked about the major themes of the book in class;...

Halloween iconage!

Will upload pictures later, since I plan on getting a bunch tonight and it would be cruel to tease until then. ;>

Strange how violently one can swing from okay to not-okay. Had a decent night. Work didn't suck, and then I found Nolan and we went to DJs. Talked a lot of philosophy. I hung out with him for a bit after that, watched some Adult Swim. He was going to bed; I went back to my room to practice guitar and maybe get some reading...

I'm doing charcoal/conte pictures of SGs.

I'm covered in charcoal dust.

Fun! :>

The white girl shook her head. "No," she answered, "never. Another time, I would not stand so long." Her voice was too soft, as though its bones had been broken. She said, "My people are gone, and I will follow them soon, whatever shape you trap me in. But I would have chosen any other than this for my prison. A rhinoceros is as ugly...

You are just as capable of not projecting your happiness into the future as anyone. Just think for a second about how haywire your life can go when you are thinking about something other than where you are at. When you catch yourself doing that, when you realize that you are spending too much time in the past or the future, then you have already solved the problem though you may not realize it. You have brought your consciousness to what you are doing. If you don't know you are doing something, how can you know to stop? This is not to say that you should judge yourself when this happens though. Don't say "Shit! I'm dwelling on the past or wishing I was somewhere else at a future point! I shouldn't be that way!" because then you have let the demon sneak in through the back door. At this point we would be projecting away from projecting away, which would be self-defeating. The awareness of what happens is what really is important, and if you find that your current situation is intolerable you can do one of three things:

1)Remove yourself from your situation
2)Change the situation
3)Accept the situation

A bad situation is already bad enough without us turning it into a problem of suffering.

Anticipating or predicting the future is different from thinking that in the future you are going to be happy because something is going to come along and make you or your life better. The reason that this does not work is because Now is all there is. Neglecting Now for a future that is not yet here already dooms that future, because we can only experience anything in the present. Let's say that our life situation somehow changes and it is better. We would have to be present in that moment to enjoy it. If we were thinking about something different, how we wanted things to be another way, we would miss out on the awesome experience that was right there before us. It wouldn't matter how good it actually was, because we wouldn't be giving it our full presence and attention. And though that explanation is hypothetical, it is happening to us right now. This weekend I sat around generally dissatisfied with things because I was thinking about how I want to be somewhere else, with some girl I've never met, spending all kinds of money I don't have, in a place that doesn't exist anywhere but in my thoughts, and I was missing out on all of the awesome things that were around me the whole time: You, Sarah, Joe, Ben, books I could have been reading, songs I could have been listening to, food I could have been eating, and so many other things that are already here right Now.

So let's talk about how fucking strange and amazing and beautiful Q's Cyborg set is. 'Cause, damn.

Some of those poses are just begging to be drawn.

Plus, her favorite artist is Yoshitaka Amano, and he draws Final Fantasy art and that one Sandman special, so she's a geek too. Which has a certain appeal.

In the off-chance you thought it was impossible to combine grammar and sex, I give you: this thread. Drago's the man-- even if he likes to be passive.

Grammar, bitches!

I gotta stop reading Dirty Talk. It's killing me -- especially that "I love it when he..." thread. Good lord, people. I'm all hot and bothered now. (What a great phrase that is. I should find more excuses to use it. Maybe just as an answer to really innocuous questions like "How are you?" "Oh, you know. Hot and bothered." "..." Wouldn't that be great?...

Had a fitful night; I tried from 1:15 until 4:15 to sleep, but even after a beer, couldn't manage to get tired. I opened my eyes once at 8:30, feeling wide awake-- I scoffed and rolled back over, and slept more soundly. Woke at 12:30 on the tail-end of some odd, sexual dream, feeling hazy; I stripped, showered, shampooed, shaved. At 1:45, I headed down...

Sorry I didn't make it to the play yesterday. I would have rather hung out here with you than go off yesterday. It's nice to see my friends, but I hate being stuck somewhere at the mercy of other people's driving ability.
