Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

It never fails. Every time I want to go to Pittsburgh, something happens to my car. Seems this time I have a slow tire leak, but that's minor. It explains why my car drove funny today though. Judging by the performance over the past week and the tire pressure numbers Dad read, the tire didn't lose all that air overnight. He doesn't seem too concerned, just told me to keep an eye on it, and if it continues, we'll got get it patched, assuming that a hole is the problem.

Good news, though--the written part of my Paraguay project is done. I just need to make some minor changes, then tomorrow I'll get it bound. Though I will also be taking a break to get my nails done before I go out to dinner Friday night. LOL. That was Mom's suggestion. I wonder what color goes well with a black dress and black open toed shoes.

Dude, fuck that using ass bitch.

She's a bitch.

A fucking BITCH.

She believes in a bunch of "love at first sight" hollywood fucking nonsense. I wouldn't piss on her if she were on fucking FIRE.

My cat goes into my bedroom and finds any drawers I left open, and proceeds to take everything out.

My socks end up everywhere.

Not birds...
They see me eating, and they fly to me right at my face if they're out of their cage.

My male cockatiel, though, does seem to make me laugh when he starts whistling when I need a laugh. Can be annoying...

He alternates between Jingle Bells and Addam's Family ALL DAY.

You need to teach that bird some new songs :P

The shaming has already begun.

You can get away with doing that to a dog, but not a cat. I still remember how angry my boss' cat was when she put her in a Halloween costume.

Though that dog does look big enough to be a reindeer or pull a sled. One reason I don't want a large dog is I'm only 5'1" and can barely handle a big dog. Even my friend's trained guide dog, a black Lab, is hard to control at times.

I beg to differ.

So this cousin is permanently moving to Louisiana?

Tomorrow, I plan on telling them either they can move into the house with me without him, or they can figure out how to pay the deposit and rent without me.

That's probably the best thing to do.

meh, I'm over it, actually. It was just a momentary thing that lasted a few days. the funny part is, I get to watch their relationship crumble and turn into dust as I sit back with some popcorn and a cold coke and laugh at the good show they put on. may take a few months, but at the rate they're going, they'll be at each others throats by easter.

and irony is, her friend likes me, but her friend smokes like a train and I don't date smokers. *slams face on desk* I would be inclined to help her kick the habit though....

I've been working on an idea for a cartoon lately. Its about an 'elf' in a double post apocalyptic earth (yeah, many shows destroy the world. I do it TWICE!) who, in college, is reunited with this elementary school bully, a very strong amazoness, who, by chance, ends up being assigned to his dorm room. Hilarity ensues.

of course, in this double destroyed world, the power of magic was released from its prison, which wipes out most of the world and causes many survivors to undergo mutations, turning them into something that resembles characters from fantasy novels.

I got the basic idea of the cartoon down, now I just need to work on concept art.

Skunky ? ? ?
What your doing to that poor dog .... & I suppose the cat as well, is wrong !
Funny as hell though L O L
But its still wrong...the dog looks like he realises, he's the butt of a joke... your going to give him self esteem issues . The cat doesn't look all that amused either -lol

I wonder what the dog would look like , running outside with a superman cape on ?

It's my sister's cat. He loves his bowtie...That's his smug face.

It would probably freak him out, unfortunately. We did joke about painting a lightning bolt on him and saying he's the Flash, though.

Greyhounds, like horses, do have points in their running stride where all four feet are off the ground, so there are some great photos of them "flying" out there. My husband picked up a copy of Retired Racing Greyhounds for Dummies and there's a full-color photo in there of a coursing greyhound with his front and back legs fully stretched out, at least a foot off the ground. Husker doesn't quite have the space to get that far into stride in the yard here, but he can still hit full speed in three strides. I pity the poor dumb squirrel that tries to eat my garden now!

My girlfriend just commented on how the cat looks pleased, she's a cat person, as well as a dog lover.

THe lighning bolt ideas a good one (IMO) too bad about the cape though ;)

Yeah, cats squint when they're happy. They're pretty weird like that.

I did put a collar on Charlie once, as a lark. I expected him to be upset and try to pull it off, but instead he pranced around the house like a dandy. He went up to Steve and sat in his lap and stretched his head back so Steve could see the collar. It was hilarious, really.

Husker would probably wear a costume if it was close-fitted. They're used to wearing colored vests at the track during races, and he has no issues wearing the little blanket-style coat we bought him. I just think a cape would scare him because it's flappy.

if it was just a small cape, something around the size of his vest, it would be a great photo, if he's got all four feet off the ground & cape flying when he's running.
Super dog...& no photo shop required.
I remember a woman had little rubber boots she used to put on her dog when I was a kid, she lived next to us...it was something she taught the dog to put up with. IF a dog can used to foot wear, it can probably get used to anything !

actually,
that situation lends itself well to a short story.

If you write it up, I would be eager to read it.

What's weird is I understood every bit of that... and I do have an uncle named Bob (as previously mentioned). O_o;

What I really want to make is that chain it's hanging on, the "Jen's Pind Linkage" pattern. It's supposed to be one of teh more difficult patterns to weave, but at the same time... it looks so damn cool.

That dog is going to have a nervous breakdown any minute. New home, new people, constantly running into furniture... now he's got an identity crisis to deal with. I hope you're happy, skunky. ;-D

the background story i'm working on could be made into a novel. but I'm no good with words, i prefer to use imagery. that and I'm seriously bad at narrating fights, which there are enough in there, but I would be willing to let you read the scripts as I finish them.
