Hello, Manda. What's going on with you?

I'm starting to think that having photojournalism as a major is a soft option. I should just go into business, even though I hate the idea. It's probably more profitable. Besides that, this media writing class is driving me ********. Having to look up old Census data that is ******** impossible to find.  

[Sunegami]

You could always try Ancestry.com, Fog; it may help with that census data. 3nodding

Hello, Manda. What's going on with you?

Just been mad busy. Lotta work, lotta school...hardly any time to myself anymore. Which has me bummed...I've really been wanting to draw lately, and just haven't had the time or energy to do so... sweatdrop  

[FogSage]

Oh my God. You have got to watch this.

I know it's on yGallery, but it's pretty safe. A lot cleaner than that vid Shaviv posted with the two dogs ******** and one of them throwing up after.

It's hilarious. When I saw it, I laughed so hard I felt dizzy.

Okay, it's official, Soothslayer is getting a little on the senile side. Currently she is over nine and a half months, which is very old in Mantis years for her species. In the last month or so, her eyesight has declined. She has some spots on her eyes that mantises at times get. I've had a few in the past who got them later on in life, but none had their vision distorted quiet as bad as Sooth.

She can still see, but apparently the spots have thrown off her depth perception. Recently I've caught her down at the bottom of her cage striking at her own shadow, and her catch ratio of prey items is horrible. Thankfully she is just the type of bug that will run after her dinner striking like wild till she lucks out and makes a catch.

Well anyway, on to what happened tonight. Like I often do, I let her have the run of my room. She had just finished eating a cricket and climbed up the side of my bunk bed like she often does. She continued to crawl till she got to the corner and was swaying looking in my direction where I was sitting at my desk. I thought she kind of looked like she was going to jump or fly, but I brushed that off since she is too fat to fly and was too far from anything to make a successful jump.

Then, the next thing I know is I see a flash out of the corner of my eye followed by a thud. She did indeed attempt to jump/fly to me. Needless to say she failed horribly and fell faster than a pig leaping off a barn roof with chicken feathers glued to its back. I rushed over and thankfully she was not only fine but walking around like looking at me like, "Oh I meant to do that...you were suppose to catch me!" xp

It's moments like this why I remember why I love mantises so much. Such goony little googley eyed bugs. rofl 4laugh heart

That's really cute, Kriss :3

I'm really sick of snow now. Two days in a row of really nasty snow. Makes it hard to want to go anywhere. No fun getting there too if you have to go somewhere. Spring can't come soon enough

I only wish I would have caught even half the funny stuff my mantises have done over the years on tape. One day I'm going to catch them doing something and send it in to Funniest Home videos. XD

As for Spring... its so hot down here you end up sweating within five minutes of stepping outside. You need to ship me some of your snow. gonk

Otherkins and Therians make me want to beat them in the head with a hammer.

Jesus. Quit deluding yourself. You are human. You cannot be anything other than human. If you think you have the soul or mind of an animal, you are obviously psychotic and belong in a mental hospital, far far away from us normal people. If you can't accept your own pathetic humanity, you are in far worse a mental state than I am. Me, the 20-year old homosexual man living in an outdated, overbearingly conservative state with the stresses of college and finding work and finding my social niche hanging over my head every ******** second of the day.

/endrant.

I can say I feel somehwat similar, I think theyre quite nutty, but Im not so hostile about it unless theyre bugging me. I do enjoy a good FYIAD.

I got poison oak. It' lovely, really. I have it on my ear, neck, face in two places. both arms, and on my legs..
I bought a lot of anti-itch cream but it's bad.

That sounds positively lovely. Good luck with that.

Can you send the cold weather to Australia? We need it for the weekend due to the LAN Party...

It's official; I do not have the chops to be a news reporter.

I am apologetic about interrupting people in the middle of business when I have an assignment about getting contact information. I try to assure them that they will not be contacted, but they are unresponsive.

I'm not an aggressive person. I don't doggedly hang onto people until I get what I want. I'm just not news reporting material.

I wan to crawl under a rock and die.

I woke up in the middle of a dream, this morning, in which some big name in /furi/ was lecturing me, in what I felt was a somewhat hostile way, about how to properly bake a soufflé. Specifically, he was telling me about how it was important to use only the whites of the eggs, and whip them with a hand whisk rather than a fork or a spoon or a power mixer. Why? Well, only the hand whisk gives the proper mixture of fluid and air bubbles. And you have to use the whites only because they contain protein chains that stiffen when heated, and trap the air bubbles effectively when you pop it in the oven; if there's even the slightest bit of fat, the guy was saying, the proteins won't chain up properly.

You guys know about /furi/, right? That it's an imageboard for furry porn, basically? So it was a bit of a ********, this dream.

Soufflés, beating by hand, porn, mind ******** not compute. x_x What, did you fall asleep watching Iron Chef while whacking off to porn or something?

What I think happened is that I was thinking about /furi/ while half-asleep and listening to a cooking show on my radio (which is my alarm clock).

However,

the idea that such a dream could arise spontaneously, ex nihilo as it were, is awesome. xD

Well... today has been both interesting and sucky.

I found out that my sisters have decided they won't get chocolate spread for me because "I went through a jar in 3 days". They forget the jar was quite small.... also I eat more when I'm stuck at home. What annoys me the most is my sister was allowed her cream cheese. She goes through this stuff a lot like me. Her breakfast lunch and snacks is that on some crackers. I'm basically eating 1 meal a day.... so I'm getting grouchy. Can't wait until the LAN Party tomorrow.

Also found out today I legally can't drive thanks to a screw up when I got my learners permit. On my license, it says I can drive an R...... Oh well, I can't drive CARs...... but I can certainly drive that R anywhere I want since there is no laws on driving Rs xD

Last bit of news, someone got hit by a train, causing utter chaos in my town. Me and my sister were on the bus when our bus was attempted to be stopped by a women on the road (bus driver insisted on continuing his route) and we then we stopped after the bridge to see the boom gates down and the train stationary. I noticed that there was a ambulance helicopter on the football/cricket field (I was the only one that seemed to notice until I pointed it out) and a small crowd. Me and my sister did a bit of reconnaissance and found out from a passenger on the train that someone was hit. After going to the place to cross I noted that the train didn't appear to have blood on the front. Then the fun for us started, the CFA (fire service for our town) was starting to redirect traffic for alternative routes... no easy task since it's the main road with REALLY big trucks. Sadly when we arrived, we saw a REALLY big truck... and the CFA helped him turn around and go back. As we walked home a car tried to alert a few that they couldn't go that way but it most fell on deaf ears, so me and my sister started to alert some of the cars as we walked by before I was told by someone that it was on the radio so me and my sister left it to the radio and the CFA to manage it, and a lot of people started turning around to head the other way.

Partial copy-pasta from my LJ (with some edits, as it was posted 2 days ago):

"So my mom called me & we talked for a few hours. That was nice. I always love hearing from her. <3

"Mom told me my grandma's apparently in the hospital; she broke her hip yesterday [the 18th], but, since she's psycho (read: a martyr), didn't go to the doctor until today [the 19th]. She's having surgery on it tomorrow [today], & may go into a nursing home for a few days to recuperate because my grandfather, while we all love him, is a cranky old man and has no patience for that kind of thing."

Fast forward to today: Mom calls me and tells me Grandma apparently had a stroke. She's still alive (thank God), and they took CAT scans and found there's no blood in her brain. . . but she currently can't feel/use her left side.

So. My boyfriend & I are going home for the weekend. Boo such short notice.

But I'm glad my grandma's still alive, at least; as whiny as she can be, I ******** love her to death.

I'm a little bummed because it puts my filming assignment on hold, but family is way more important that school to me.
