hello friends

http://pics.livejournal.com/napoleonherself/gallery/00002bsc

Various userpics that I don't use at the moment but am happy to share; also, my new official depository for such, instead of a directory on my unreliable-thanks-to-comcast server. The panda ones are new. They're cuuuuuuute.

I would like to point out that my birthday is May 27th. Feel free to give me a present. Don't make me make the big sad eyes of scanner-less-ness.

Those of you who have already paid for stickers, I swear I will get them mailed out just as soon as I can get mecha to take me to the post office.

I miss merv.

Hee hee, I had forgotten this. It's for the Keenvention way back in early '01. The fine upstanding young man next to yours truly would be Chris. (maybe if I start linking to that a lot, he'll start updating again!)

From when I didn't know what a wolverine looked like.

Once upon a time I was planning to end Snail Dust and move on to another project. I had a cast, a concept, the outline of a plot... but I never felt artistically ready to tackle it. So I never did. And so it died. But I did a lot of bits of art for it meanwhile. Like this page with fake dialog instead of what they were really talking about.

Hey, I had forgotten drawing this. (for Chris)

And I never did do anything with this.

Dangit, I can't find the thing I really wanted to post. I'd scan it afresh, but that is hard to do when you have no scanner.

So mecha's sister and her fiance are getting married soon. Aw, how sweet.

Here is the invitation (please ignore that it is crumply it was in my jacket pocket for a couple days until I remembered it existed):

Aw.

But wait -- what's it actually say?


Heh heh heh.

Sarah and Ted rock.

okay so you have this

and then i finally come up with this


WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME

chrisxk: OOMPA LOOMPA DOOMPADEE DOO, THIS NOTE IS WORTH ONE DOLLAR FOR YOU
chrisxk: OOMPA LOOMPA DOOMPADEE DEE, TO COUNTERFEIT IS A FELONY

Also, it is snowing. And sticking a bit, even.

There are a bunch of assholes on campus with signs saying things like 'FAGS BURN IN HELL'. I have just made my own sign, and will soon be joining them.

If I never return, it is because these fine, upstanding Christian individuals killed me for daring to disagree with them and their loving, benevolent god.

Edit: Okay, so mecha changed my mind and I'm not going. Apparently it isn't worth it since these are just guys who do this almost professionally, swooping by once a year to protest until they're kicked out of town again. Still. Assholes. Grr.

Seen at Lowe's tonight: Woodworking for Women. Apparently this informative publication teaches the fairer sex how to construct such things as "a kids' yard toss game", "a chick tote for easter eggs", and "a closet organizer". I'm sure a coming issue will detail how to make a darling little shelf on which to display photos of all the kids you've popped out.

As mecha put it: "Also in the same series: Building for Blacks! Housework for Hispanics! Insulation for Irish!"

Honestly. Is it just me? Or in this case, us?

Also, my costume for the Halloween partyish thing I'll be going to tomorrow is done. Oibserve:
