I APPLIED AT KSU TODAY. Payment and all. It's a small step. I still have to get my transcripts from Harding and whip my FAFSA, since I haven't done it in two years. My mom paid for my registration. She also got me a new ID, which the girl at the desk said I needed, since mine was expired and I haven't gotten a new once since before my birthday. When I was supposed to get one. So we went out to the mall and I got a shiny new one that I look like a real person in.

We also grabbed lunch at BW3, I got wings for TJ, since they were OUT OF RIBS. WHO DOES THAT? NO RIBS? BLASPHEMY.

My mom bought me a nice t-shirt at Target.

We trekked back in to town and I went to properly pay for my registration and.....the other lady didn't even ask for my identification. She just had me jot down my info for her.

D: D:

Ah well.

Then, my mom bought me some food and brought me home! I need to clean the fridge. It's frightening. I'm scared.

If I do not return, do not come and look for me. DO NOT BE NEXT.

I'm so squinty-eyed and my face is less than stellar. But there's sorta my new haircut.


So here's a cute Koffing rat and some more bullshit after the cut...

Work today was a waste. A whole three and a half hours because we had a tiny truck. YESTERDAY they were there until, like, 11AM because there was a HUGE truck with a bunch of Easter pallets. Go to hell, Target. Ugh.

Today, we picked up cleaning supplies so I can do some desperately needed spring cleaning. Hurrah! Hopefully I can get to the garage, too. Because it's NASTY in some places.

Splurged on some pizza yesterday, because nothing in the house was appetizing.

Busy day ahead, Arcee and Elita are getting rehomed (the two little rat girls) and we're trekking out to Cuyahoga Falls for stuff and to kidnap Angie for the weekend. Saturday, we're going up to Cleveland area to possibly see 3-D My Bloody Valentine or Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, dunno which. But Solon's the only place with 3-D My Bloody Valentine, so we'll see. We're also gonna hit up the asian markets for yums.

I gotta clean before we trek out later, though. After TJ's therapist appointment at 10AM-ish. The fridge is gross and the dishes are half done and the rat cages need finished cleaning. And I have to clean out the shower in the garage because the upstairs tub is clogged. Ugh. Creepy rape shower. I should see how much a curtain for it is, too. D:

I worked, like, six hours yesterday. I was the ONLY. PERSON. DOING. AUTOPULLS. Autopulls at Target are just stock pulled from the backroom to fill what's been bought from the shelves, by the way. For those not knowledgable of Target lingo. :P But it was JUST ME doing the WHOLE STORE. I'm pretty shocked I got it done that fast. But I didn't feel like staying long enough for a lunch, which I would've had to take by 10AM.

I'm ALMOST done with the Freckles questionarre thing. SO CLOSE. Ffff. Then....to do all the others. D:

It's gonna be 40F today! Heatwave! :D :D

I downloaded some old school Iron Man comics. Like, original appearance and foward. I'm looking forward to reading and lulzing hardcore.

[18:41] Squeeji: We thought of you last night at midnight
[18:41] TJ: lol why?
[18:42] Squeej: it hit midnight and we heard a odd noise and elliott just looked at me and grinned, and I laughed and we both decided that had to be you coming explosively at the release of Ironman
[18:43] Squeeji: We never did find the actual source of said sound
[18:43] TJ: ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
[18:43] Squeeji: So it had to have been you
[18:43] TJ: *pops a lung laughing*

Speaking of Squeeji, she drew a Tony for us...

( Cut for...is that a speedo? Man panties? What? )

I walked up to the Jamestown Plaza to acquire a belt for the sweeper, as the previous one had broken. I checked the dollar stores first, to no avail. And, after walking across the street to check the Family Dollar, it began DOWNPOURING. Thankfully, TJ had mentioned it might rain, so I grabbed my umbrella before I left. but I still ended up with my butt to my feet being soaked in the back. Ah well. I did find a belt at Giant Eagle, but I should've gotten sweeper bags, too. As the one in the sweeper is full. :/ So I can't actually do any of the cleaning I WANTED to do until I get one. But, at least, I can get the clothes organized (cause they need washed) and...attempt to get the kitchen clean.

Dishes are the bane of my existence. I can keep everyone elses' kitchen clean. Wash my dishes when I'm done, was my pots and pans when I'm done. But in my own kitchen? The one I should care about? Nope. I let dirty dishes sit in the sink for weeks. I'll get the motivation to clean and I'll put everything in clean, hot water to soak and I'll just...never get around to it. It's really awful. I know I should be better about it, but I can't bring myself to be. Maybe I need to hide all but one piece of everything for both me and TJ and then, when we don't have anything to use, I HAVE to clean them. And then there's only a handful of things to clean instead of eight handfuls of crap in the sink. Staring at me.

I can generally keep my cookware pretty clean, as I use it regurarly. I guess this is good?

I've been trying to learn the S2 style system because I want to start making layouts again. I've been inspired by some designers here on LJ that I've snagged layouts from (the one I'm using currently, included). I miss making layouts that are ALL MY OWN. And most of LJ's default ones just aren't doing it for me anymore because I want a lot more customization.

But it's all CSS and stuff, so it's very out of my comfort zone. I can whip up a cool layout in HTML, but in CSS? Good god. So I'm just throwing myself into it and starting out by editing the default LJ codes. So far, it's not too bad, but there's some things that are aggravating me about how the CSS works. But, there's a lot of rescources out there for me to use so I should be able to figure it out.

Either way, it's something new and, hopefully, I'll conquer it!

I was writing up my grocery and such list for Friday when I saw what one of my lists for last payday was:



Mmmm, that's some good eatin'. I like the Sailor Jerry's up at the top the most. And Vitamin Water was on sale for, like, 20 for $10. <3<3

I'm selling some originals for pretty cheap on Furbid. I'm trying to squirrel together some monies for a new scanner.

https://www.furbid.ws/cgi-bin/auction/aboutview.pl?user=Obliviousally

I was considering offering up a full color digital commission if someone wanted to buy me a scanner, but that seemed a little, I don't know, lame. I'd kinda rather /make/ the money and buy it myself, I guess.

I spent most of yesterday cleaning. The living room is clean, aside from our little corner. The kitchen is getting there. I gotta wash dishes and wipe things down. It's just a small mess there now.

Gotta go out and pick up food and things for the ratties today.

Just a list for reference:

- To Do:

clean living room closet

organize clothes

rearrange living room

clean cages

clean bathroom

wash dishes

clean kitchen

clothes to Goodwill

clean bedroom

organize bedroom

clean dining room

tidy up other bedroom

sweep everything

- To Al's:

bags of stuffed animals

boxes of stuff that isn't needed here (cups, mugs, toys, etc.)

bikes

tires

Taking a break right now for hot chocolate. Yum!

So, Zephyr is sick. Pnemoniua(sp?) or myco. We've got him quarantined(sp? again?) in the bedroom. He's not able to drink very well, but he'll happily take Nutrical and he'll willingly take the Baytril (which is a shock). We're going to keep an eye on him and see if his condition worsens, if so, off to the vet he goes. Hopefully he'll shape up, though.

Slim (one of the bearded dragons, the one with the calcium deficency) passed away suddenly today. He was okay this morning, looking around and being lazy as usual, but when we came back from getting groceries, he was gone. Rocky does not seem to care, he is still more interested in having stare-offs with Taylor.

I cannot type today. Wow.

I need to work on commissions. Ugh. I've got...two or three to sketch, but I can't do anything until I get a scanner. *idly nudges squeeji :D* I have two I need to finish on the computer. Gotta add something small to the one and shade the other. But...wow. I'm so lazy. I just don't have the motivation to do anything past flat coloring these days. Like this. Ugh. :P Don't know why, either. I've also got a few things I want to finish to post on Furbid.

My mom called a couple times today. She's staying at a nice place in the country. Wants us to come out and see it. Chuck (her new boyfriend, much better than Bud - who's out of prison now, as well) also said that if the car isn't fixed by this weekend, he's going to pay to get it fixed himself. Woot.

Um...what else? Not a whole lot.

And because wolf_ekko wanted to see it: The rearranged bedroom. Yes, there's a lot of posters. Yes, there's a lot of Vin posters. The only thing not pictured is the closet, which is a royal mess of clothes and plushies, which you can see part of in the fourth picture down. But there's much more room which is nice. The bed used to be in the middle of the room, in front of the Megatron poster in the first pic. Barely any room, it sucked. :P But nicer now. <3

What's with all the huge tit art on DA all of a sudden? And fat art really needs to go. I really don't have a problem with other people's fetishes, but...wow. I don't want to see saggy meat flaps all over the place. And inflation is just a whole different creepiness that I just don't get. But, to each their own, I suppose.

I think. >_o

Raku bit me today while I was playing with him. I need to start squeaking at him when he does it, but my reaction when an animal bites is immediate calmness and no struggle, so I don't think to. I just think about them letting go as soon as possible. But he didn't do it out of meaness, just cause that's how him and Vlad play. Doesn't bother me, I just need to teach him not to bite hard enough to break skin. :P

I've got some boxes I need to finish putting together and send out (neogeen and starc), I'm so very lazy. x_x Got Furbid things I need to send out, as well...

Ummm...I think that's about it, really. :O
