napoleonherselfGraphics tablets were 100 bucks both at CompUSA and at Fry's. Wal*Mart didn't have any. Apparently our Wal*Mart isn't as cool as others.
After ascertaining all this, we drove past the neighborhood where we used to live till '99. Lots of stuff is still the same. Not everything, of course. Our house isn't stripey anymore, for one thing. But then, I knew that.
We also got fried zucchini from the drive-in near the old place. Still two bucks even after all these years. And it's enough for two people. They don't give enough sauce, though.
...although now, with my half of the zucchini fifteen minutes in my tummy, I'm wondering if it wasn't a bad idea. Mmm, pain.
Once, long ago, there was a wishing-fairy, who would flitter about, finding people who were sad or troubled, that she might grant their wishes and thus make them happy. She'd been at it for quite some time, and figured she had a pretty good handle on this wish-granting business.
One day, the wishing-fairy came across a young princess who gave her pause. The princess was beautiful, wealthy, witty, well-loved by her people -- yet for all that, she was not happy. The wishing-fairy was not sure to do about this, for the princess had, it seemed, everything she might want -- and yet she was sad.
Then the wishing-fairy hit upon what seemed to her to be the obvious solution. The princess was lonely! She had no prince to court her and to slay dragons in her name. Plainly, then, what the princess needed was a prince. And this the wishing-fairy provided her.
Only problem was, the prince was a bloody idiot. And the princess didn't like him. At all.
That's the basic story behind this puppy.
Yet another image I need to rework and finish someday... it amuses me quite a bit, though.
The thingy on the prince's whateveryoucallit is a llama. It was originally supposed to be a donkey, but it looks more like a llama to me. And llamas are funny. Llamallamallamallamallama.

And why is it that princesses never feel they need other princesses, anyway? I mean, think about it, it's got to happen. =O
