I shall never live in Iowa again... it is far too cold too long.
I am currently looking at the weather of all my other friends and can't help but weep.
Our high is.... 38 (pretty good for us, I was uber excitied)
Their highs.... nothing lower then 58 & most are in the 60's ... T.T (sad face)
Damn you Iowa!
Absolutely crazy...
So I decided that I would answer the fliers about doing caricatures for Purim (a Jewish holiday). Mind you I had no idea what Purim was about, but when I got there today and the Rabbi greeted me I had to hold my laughter. He looked like the stereotypical Jewish man... curly side face hair, crazy beard esc. except for one thing... he was wearing a sombrero. It was the best thing ever. So I guess that people dress up for this holiday because it's a birthday party for Queen Ester and Mordecai. (I say birthday party because there were lots of birthday balloons everywhere and they sang happy birthday to Ester... of course this might be because some girl actually named Ester might have her birthday then... I was so busy drawing my ass off, I couldn't observe what was going on)
I have been to many a Jewish feast, fest exc. but this one looked like tons and tons of uber fun. I would love to learn more about this tradition... gotta love the Jewish tradition; they do a lot of fun stuff it seems. Well.. except the no eating shellfish deal; I love shell fish way too much to ever be Jewish, (and the meat and dairy combo... that rocks too!).
nyar nyar nyar nyar nyar...
for whatever reason...
my brain is all fogged up...
it makes it very difficult to write this entry...
and work on any homework...
I sat down for about 3 hours and couldn't think of anything for GD4...
nyar nyar nyar nyar nyar...
I think that I need something really fun and pointless to do...
like a good video game...
or get my computer working so I can watch some One Piece...
I was drawing really well yesterday...
but it was all doodles...
maybe my GD4 project can be a collection of my doodles...
with a narration...
making some sort of story...
maybe documenting my drawing habits...
...
gnaw...
that is all sorts of lameness.
Okay... it's almost 8 at night and I am still in St. Louis. This is probably not the best idea, because it currently looks like I am not going to be getting home untill much much later. Oh well, any extra time with Tray-Tray is time well spent.
I was supposed to see the Carbon Leaf show at the Duck Room, but because of some crazy adventures involving Texas, Italy, The Red Sea and Reggae music.
The They Might Be Giants was very very cold, I can't imagine playing those instruments with that weather. Poor John L. didn't play his accordion very much, it was so cold. In the middle of the show they had a power out... so it was a good show considering. I did get to be shoved up into the second row, and some bouncers gave me lots of beads!
Happy Valentines day everyone! I hope you all don't waste too much money on forced presents, and end up not making you and your loved ones disappointed.
Continuing tradition Tray and I broke up again this year; now to bring on the women!
I do need to call Keebs today to see if she still wants to have our hot lesbian date! I kinda have a hell of a lot to do today so I should try to make it a lunch date. Hmm....
So we found out why the heat would leave our living room so quickly... there was a huge gap in between the window and the rest of the wall. It was over a 1/2 an inch wide. So we got a bunch of tape and fixed it right up. Now the room is exactly the temp. that the thermostat says it is. Of course it is a lot warmer today then normal, very sad to think that in the 30's is warm. Oh well.
It might snow tomorrow... 80 percent chance. I am a little tired of getting my shoes all soggy though. But if it is going to be cold we might as well have it snow. I just hope that it isn't too cold this weekend in St. Louis, it might take away from the They Might Be Giants concert I am planning on going to. It will be my 3rd TMBG show, for they are super fun cool people to see on stage. Even if you don't like their music, they are extremely fun to watch. A very lively bunch of Johns.
My Tablet rocks my face hardcore. I did a digital painting this weekend, so so so so SO much fun! I really should do some more, I am so fast with painting, it can't hurt. Too bad my workload feels so large, it's hard to go back to the studio unless I need to. It's not a fun walk to campus... especially if there is snow.
