Well I am now officially 21 as of September 17th...I know my entry is a little late.
I did go out yesterday to dinner and I enjoyed myself lots. I've got plans today too to continue the party. I'm going go drinking a little more since my paycheck finally cleared and stuff YAY, and i'm going to wonder around pittsburgh. Possibly dye my hair and do a little shopping.

I'm excited though. This magical number now gives my access to wine tastings at all of the great wineries in the area and the breweries. I'm such a wine-o. La~

For my birthday my wonderful man even scoured all the local comic book shops to get me a nice stack of Static comic books. My favorite series. Now if only we could find the other 3 Mystique's I'm missing.

He also bought us a fantastic bottle of Champagne that we uncorked at midnight on the 17th after I got home from work.

MMM pepperjack cheese......
goes well with corn dogs and a romp around azeroth.


Anyway so I just posted my first pixel dolls in sometime. Not my best work but I'll get back into the swing of it eventually.
I'm in the middle of moving and I get to start my new job at the River's Casino here in Pittsburgh on the 20th. It's very exciting.



Wow I started this and thought I had a lot more to say...oh well it'll come to me later

I guess it's fair for me to say I haven't posted much of anything this past year...I kind of regret it but I haven't done much of anything to post here. I suppose that's what happens when you move out of your parents house, go to college for something not in the "art" industry. I mean I can't really say I'm not in the art industry as my college degree says Associates Degree of Specialized Technology in Culinary "Arts" so I guess I'm somewhat still there. Well I finally got a desktop with Windows XP so you should start seeing a few pixel dolls here and there popup. No promises, but now that I actually have something I can sit at and have patience with it's more likely, since let's face it Windows Vista blows and the "new" mspaint it comes with pales in comparison. Not to mention trying to pixel on a laptop with a small screen and bad eyesight is no fun either. I however have done a few traditional pieces of my characters on WoW. Yes WoW, my fiance sucked me into it so we had something aside from the billions of game consoles and games we have to play. Go figure aside from Mario there aren't too many console games that suck him into multi-player mode. Then again he's a techie so I guess being that he's never going to be satisfied with one game we play together, he's now trying to suck me into Guild wars or something like that I don't know. Needless to say it's not working. Especially since he bought me the Sims Pet Stories and reserved the Sims 3 for me when it comes out in June...so excited. Though I think I've won my battle with the Wii fitness games like the new multi-player one coming out this month by EA. We already reserved it so I can't wait to kick his ass at some of the multi-player games it's going to have to offer, that is provided I can get him to put the Wii wheel and Mario kart down.
I guess life is going ok, looking for an apartment in Pittsburgh currently so I can move back to an area that offers more than 3 worthwhile restaurants to work for. I've an interview Wednesday so wish me luck. I'm pretty excited, it's going to be a nice change of pace and at least living there I won't have to worry about the wind ripping the gutter off my house, which mind you was just recently put back on. The only thing I'm leery about with moving is my 55-gallon fish tank. I have renters so I should be allowed to have it no matter what apartment I get however actually moving it is the hard part. It's heavy empty...and I didn't have fish to worry about jumping out of their respective buckets when I got it. The ferrets too are a worry, I don't want to give them up but there are some places that may not welcome them, though my fingers are crossed. I'm not worried about Chewie and Nemy, they became outside cats once it became warm, since they kept trying to sneak out I let them go have fun, collared and tagged of course and while I miss them lots and put food out for them, I haven't see them since I did so. If anything I hope someone picked them up and is taking good care of them, or they're just somewhere in the backyard sleeping when I look for them.

Well, If you made it this far with me thanks for reading about my ramblings. <3

So I guess it's been awhile since I updated this. Things are working out, slowly, but working out. To all of those who are between the ages of 18 and 24, stay at your parents house until you've built up enough money that you can be stable by yourself and have good enough credit to get the help from the bank should you need it.
The government is nuts if they think people can survive by themselves on minimum wage in this day and age.

A lot of things have happened, I'm working at a call center for the winter, since Nemacolin doesn't get the business in the winter it does in the summer, and frankly I'm bored being that slow and having nothing to do but clean in the kitchen.

I'm slowly approaching the months where my cat Nemy needs spayed, Chewie is already cuddling up to her more than I like and I really don't want kittens.

It's getting really cold up here in Uniontown PA too. We had our first snow of the season last week and with that a nice hike in my electric bill, especially since I run off of baseboard heating and in order to keep the air from drying out I've to run a humidifier on top of it. Thoug I suppose if I wanted I could shut my fridge off and keep all the food outside on my front porch. :/

On another note if you haven't checked out the new Harvest Moon game for the wii you should definitely do so. It's pretty unique, fantastic animation and a little overly cute storyline but it's a pretty in depth game and it's certainly a challenging game. There are parts that get you so stuck you've no choice but to go online and look things up or buy the strategy guide.

Well I best be going, I'm supposed to be cleaning my house.

Apartment searching is such a pain in the butt. I've checked a few different places and they're full, or they're renovating and not accepting new tenants or not feasible affordable.

Ugh hopefully something will come up
