Hello there, this is Katana, also known as Kat in some circles. I'm your friendly neighborhood twenty-two-year-old illustrator/writer whose sarcasm is second to none and harboring the ability to verbalize the parentheses in stories. I drink coffee and draw like an addict and am liable to get you into things that I like. Currently the wielder of a BFA in Illustration and a minor in English.

Questions? Comments? Death threats? Feel free to PM or message me in some iteration. I'm always around, you just don't know it.

Post-Christmas

Man, I had like a Christmas hangover or something today. XD; I woke up and diddled about before coming downstairs and finishing up "Mad Monster". Then I took a nice nap...Also, I love the fireplace down here.

Internet's been quiet, like I figured it would be...Holidays are so ironic that way. Everyone has the time off, but they're all off having lives or ignoring me so nothing happens until the evening, which causes me to stay up until 3am, which kinda leads to this cycle of waking up late...

Ah well, going out to Giordanos tonight. Good, I've been craving pizza and soda (since we have no cola in the fridge).

Also, I thought this was kinda weird:

MST3K Season One Progress: Moon Zerto Two, Untamed Youth, Robot Holocaust, Robot Monster, The Crawling Eye, The Robot vs. The Aztec Mummy, Mad Monster
Still Have To Watch: Women of the Prehistoric Planet, The Corpse Vanishes, The Crawling Hand, The Slime People, Project Moonbase, The Black Scorpion

How long before it becomes a standard?

Merry freakin' Christmas everyone!

Kat's haul:

- Nikon Coolpix S550 digital camera; ten megapixels, blue. Named Kamina. Lulz.
- Three Inuyasha DVDs and two FMA ones from my brother
- Barnes & Noble giftcard from my brother and sister-in-law
- Borders giftcard (cue the 'oh snap!')
- Pajamas
- Chocolate
- Good Eats DVD boxset (Alton Brown = another one of Kat's fangirlisms)
- Bath stuff
- Notepads, pens, tape (yes, tape), and general office supplies

What I consider Christmas presents:

- Cinematic Titanic
- MythBusters marathon today on Discovery
- Watching Santa Claus Conquers the Martians with my brother XDD
- You guys (D'AWWWW)

New Years Eve is going to be spent working, though I'll be home by 10 or so...Hey Waffles, wanna celebrate or are you busy? >>; Oh, and Timber! I'll have the design for you by then, cool? Cool. Yeah. Like a SNOWSTORM OF AWESOMENESS.

...I've had three cups of coffee and an orange juice/champagne concoction.

Hope you have the haziest, laziest, Swayziest Christmas of them all, if that's okay!

Explaining Christmas

A short story that popped into my head and strangled my brain until I could no longer think and had to marathon to finish it last night. >_O Joel does his best to explain Christmas to Crow. Warning, cute. >>; ---------------...

The eve of Chirstmas

Mom's going stir-crazy, so I'll be leaving soon...meanwhile, quick post or something.

Ya know how most people leave Christmas gift shopping until Christmas Eve? I tend to leave the presents I make to this point in time. Shopping is easy, drawing stuff isn't so much. Or...it requires more effort than shopping. XD Wow, laaazy...

I can't really believe it is what day it is. It just seems like...I dunno. Like, I'm excited for presents and all, but I didn't really realize what day it was until last night [this morning?] at around 2am when I just went "oh hay, it's the 24th". Srsly.

So I plan on doing lots of artsy, craftsy things today. As to whether or not that'll actually *happen*? We'll see. >3<;

And here, have a random photo from my snow adventure yesterday:

MST3K season one progress: Robot Monster, Robot Holocaust, Moon Zero Two, Untamed Youth
Still have to watch: The Crawling Eye, The Robot vs. The Aztec Mummy, Mad Monster, Women of the Prehistoric Planet, The Corpse Vanishes, The Crawling Hand, The Slime People, Project Moonbase, The Black Scorpion

Goggles!

My goggles! They came! FINALLY!

And as you can see, it's been snowing like crazy here. I went out to go play and stuff...um, lots of snow and I'm short and yeah. Fun. XD;

Oh! The goggles DO do something! They let me walk in the direction the snow is blowing against. XD So now I won't be blinded, wooh!
