I thoroughly enjoyed my first day off. I just worked on the Bossman Cupcake for Adam’s contest and then I watched Ghost Hunters. I love that show. I actually went onto the Otaku chats too…it was fun when there were less people on it and then when too many people are on and talking at once…chaos.XD But still fun since I got to chat with some pals on there.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention what happened the other day at the casino I work at. A guy won a $10,000 jackpot and was running around the casino yelling and cheering and just telling everyone how he just won 10 grand. So, he comes up to the cashiers to cash his voucher in…well, for those who don’t know, we are a state run casino meaning, if you owe any money to the state they will take it right then and there if you win money. Well apparently, this guy owed for child support and guess how much was taken away? ALL of it!!! lol!!! Oh man, the guy wasn’t too happy after that since he thought he just won 10 grand but walked away with nothing.XD XD Haha!!! That’s what you get for being a deadbeat Dad!!!
You make babies, you better be able to help take care of them! Heehee!

Thanks to all those who checked out my latest drawing!! I got a record number of faves and comments on it both on here and on Deviant Art…within a 24 hour period I mean. I think everyone has a soft spot for sweet, squishy anime moments like that. Everyone likes a good hug!XD Anywho, if you haven’t seen it yet, I’d appreciate a look and a comment:
The Budweiser Clydesdale horses came to our casino the other day. They were supposed to have a big parade and everything but it got rained out and canceled. My mom and I came back the next day to see them…it was pretty disappointing because they’re HUGE beautiful horses…but they had them locked up in little pens and we could only see their heads. Lame! One of the ladies who worked there eventually brought one out for people to pet and take pictures so that was cool.
I don’t know how many of you had heard but Budweiser…the all-American beer…has been bought out by a Belgian company. And we wonder why America’s economy is going to sh*t. Barely anything is made in America anymore!
But it’s been rumored that this new Belgian company is going to get rid of the Budweider Clydesdales! I mean, I hate beer and Budweiser is no exception, but the Budweiser Clydesdales are an American icon! I loved all the commercials during the superbowl that involve these horses. Hopefully, this new company will get over themselves and keep the pretty horsies.^^
And speaking of horses, this caption makes me giggle:
I finally finished my Ouran High School Host Club fan art I’ve been talking about! It’s been getting such wonderful reviews from everyone which makes me very happy since I worked hard on this. I adored drawing and coloring it though…helps that it’s also my fave scene from the show. I just love the Tamaki/Haruhi coupling to pieces.XP But yeah, a couple have mentioned it looks almost like a vector of a screen shot…it isn’t! For one, I stylized them more-so to my own new style I’ve been working on, which is the long-and-lean style like CLAMP’s and two, that particular full-body shot of Tamaki and Haruhi didn’t look like that…in the actual show, they had been borderline chibi-fied (something I never liked since it was an emotional, serious moment and the chibi style didn’t suite that moment) so, with my “artistic license” I drew it the way *I* thought it should have been done! Hazzah! Gotta love that whipping out that license. But yeah, ‘tis my 2nd attempt at coloring my works on the computer, so please take a look and comment, I’d appreciate it:
So, I’ve been very busy lately…summertime usually equals relaxing and vacations to most but for me, it’s the opposite. It’s the busiest most stressful time at the casino I work at. Lots of overtime, lots of overwork, lots of me getting stressed and easily irritable. But it’s okay, I deal. I’m tough. The drawing above that I talked about helped me in the sense it kept my mind occupied the little time I am at home. I just am in an overall better mood the entire day if I’ve worked on a drawing. I was probably going to try and throw something together for Adam’s evil cupcake contest he’s holding if I can gather the time. I got to see FuzzButt yesterday though! He kinda behaved himself too!
Here’s a picture of him I took that I think came out really well! I was more-so shocked that he let me put the camera this close to his face without swatting at it:
I bought a new fish today. It’s another clownfish…it’s so cute and small!! I already have one clownfish but clownfish like to be in groups so I got another one. It really does look like Nemo and his father now…since one is all big and this new one is all teeny and the little guy keeps on following the big one around like a dad. ‘Tis cute.
I visited my parent’s house yesterday and got to see my kitty, FuzzButt!!! He was being a trouble-maker as always. Our doggy, Harley has been being bad lately so my parents will put her in a kennel when she does something she shouldn’t be doing and you know what FuzzButt does? He sits right there in front of the cage of the kennel, teasing Harley! Prances around in front of it, paws at the door, jumps on the top…just mocking the poor pup! lol! He’s such a turd. I still do want to make a mini-manga based on FuzzButt because he has quite the comic-worthy personality. I never mentioned it before but the idea for my neko, thief character Bug in my manga:
Is based on FuzzButt! He has that sneaky, devious, sarcastic personality that will mimic the way FuzzButt is but more…humanized! lol! Even one of my other characters, the elf Estel, refers to Bug as ‘FuzzButt’ from time to time. Just a way to leak something from my real life into my own story, I suppose…even though FuzzButt is a white fluffy puffball and Bug isn’t but still, similar personalities.XD
More captions, heehee!
