...Because that's how many fingers I'm typing with on my right hand. Because I got stung by a yellow jacket on my ring finger this afternoon....grrr...I didn't even see the bastard coming. Stung me on the fly, as it were. But not that fly--that would be thoroughly uncomfortable, and I probably wouldn't post about it here--oh hell, yes I would, because it would be funny as hell. And this, ladies and gents, is what happens when you let redneck motherfuckers blog. ;)
Aside from that, I have nothing much to report except that me, Kristyn, Lauryn, Emily, Jason, and....a few other people I don't know are driving to Huntsville, Alabama tomorrow for the anime convention PersaCon. I'm not really big into anime (in fact you could say I'm pretty damn ignorant about all of it), but I do like costuming. And when Kristyn proposed that we all make costumes and go to the convention as our characters from the MMORPG Dofus well...I was all kinds of down for that. Pictures will follow when I arrive back on Sunday, or they may be delayed to Monday...or Tuesday...depends on how I feel after unpacking and talking myself into going back to work on Monday, hahaha.
And then I stole some memes from brownamazon, cuz I don't want to go to bed yet. Hahaha.
A quick meme before work, courtesy of Sarah!

This time I was tagged by agathafrye...
- Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
- People who are tagged, write a blog post about their own 8 random things, and post these rules.
1. I don't drink coffee much at all because I hate the sour taste it leaves in my mouth. If I do go out for coffee somewhere, I usually get it with some sort of sweet flavoring in it.
2. I'm generally a big fan of nature, and don't consider even the flying, stinging bugs "bad" or "creepy". The one insect that I absolutely cannot fucking tolerate, however, are ticks. They're a horrid, disease-carrying pestilence that can move one set of legs independently from the other side, and they all should die. (This loathing was only aggravated by one incident several summers ago when I sat down on a stump in the middle of the woods to rest a bit, surveyed the surroundings and then looked down only to find a WHOLE FUCKING TROUPE of ticks scrambling towards my warm lifeblood. I jumped up and ran the hell out of there.)
3. I get ridiculously delighted with myself whenever I find myself able to identify wildflowers and plants in nature without a reference.
4. I honestly believe one of my totem animals is a mockingbird.
5. I always keep a careful eye out for faeries or gnomes when I'm walking through the woods (or anywhere, really).
6. While I think ethanol as a fuel alternative is a step in the right direction, the sustainability of it in the long-term is ridiculous. We're on the right track, but keep goin' cuz ethanol just ain't it.
7. When I was little, I was positive that I was going to grow up to be Davy Crockett. He was what I wanted to be, and I often played that I was him--I had a rough suede bag with fringe that I would put my "supplies" in and trek around the farm all day. I still have that bag somewhere, too--I don't think I'll ever forget the smell of it.
8. For whatever reason, I can't stand red onions on a sandwich or a hamburger, but white onions are perfectly fine.
The eight people I tag are...Danielle, Marie, Meg, Michelley-Shell, tha ever-lyrical Davey B! Rogue, Sarah, and Paxton make eight--consider yourself dealt with :P
As for tonight and the rest of this week (until Thursday night), there will probably be stress and angst. Not from me, of course--Tuesday's my musical exams (juries + diction final), Wednesday is English Lit, Thursday I turn in a history paper and baby I'm done. I plan on doing a lot of reading this week, because apparently I am just simply too loud when I'm having fun. So shit on that--let her stress while I chill.

Fill in the blank. It can be as simple or elaborate as you'd like.

I'm not going to tag anyone else--partake of it if you please!
Damn, it is time for some serious napping.
P.S. Haven't you ever heard of the Womberscootch?
Still battling with myself over the "when it rains, it pours" scenario I described to those privvy few in my neighborhood.
Palmistry is pretty interesting stuff, I've been reading up on it the past few days.
Kat and I's trip to Detroit is a week and two days away. *hyperventilates* It's going to be so...cold...but that gives me an excuse to pack my trenchcoat! Whoohoo!
In other news, I'm too sexy for this blog.

The Friday Five (only because it pertains to photography <3):
1. As many of you read below, I just purchased a Canon Powershot A560, so that is "whee!" I can't lay claim to it, but I put the most mileage on the "family" Kodak Easyshare Z740 as well (it's a rather clunky camera size and shape-wise, and the wheel that allows you to select shooting modes is hard to manipulate sometimes because I don't have fingernails). I also have a film-shooting Canon EOS Rebel, which hasn't been used since the start of spring semester when I took some shots of the campus.1) What kind of camera do you have?
2) How often do you take pictures?
3) What's the last picture you took?
4) What is the first camera you ever had?
5) Show us your best shot.
2. Every chance I get! Even when nobody would even remotely care. Ha.
3.
Nibble nibble.
4. My first camera to call my own was an Samsung somethin-or-other. It was a biiiig "lol".
5. Best shot according to who? :3 I'm just going to pick my best shot from my Vox library, because I don't feel like traversing my deviantArt, Photobucket, and my hard drive to find the best-best.
And now, stolen from agathafrye: List 25 things you want to say to others. Don't mention their names. It doesn't need discussion. Random order.
1) You are playing these mind games with me at work and I desperately want to jump all over you. In a good way. Or am I imagining things?
2) Get your ass home, right-fucking-now
3) Why the FUCK did you leave her alone with her touchy-feely-too-old-for-her boyfriend?!
4) If you're gonna get high and come to Wendy's, don't throw a hissy fit when I take your cash and hand you your change while you're sitting there trying to fish out the 34 cents or whatever it was you owed.
5) I miss you.
6) You're a drama-inducing bitch and you get deep under my skin.
7) Sometimes I loathe you.
8) It's about time you started realizing I work.
9) I still have a nagging feeling that you really were trying to ditch me this weekend.

12) You make my day every time you come in the store. I don't even know your name, but it's love.
13) Honey, you're big as a house. PLEASE GET THE HELL OUT OF MY WAYit'scalled'fastfood'forareason.
14) You thieves, you looked me right in the eye and drove off with that order you KNEW wasn't yours. Ass-munching cockmonglers.
15) How is it that I come into the clinic and see all these new people, but I never got a call?
16) How did we drift apart?
17) Is this two-way flirting or am I just expending and not receiving?

25) You're my only true friend remaining at school.
Stolen from agathafrye:
Post a summer track from your library.
I foresee myself getting much shit for this and many lame "yeah, it's C-rap! lolololololol" jokes...but damnit, it's such a fun song!! He sampled pretty much every hot new rap song from late 06/early 07. I dance.
And where else are you going to hear someone rhyme "bank" with "drink"? Laugh, damnit.
Ok, ok, I'll post something more...what do the masses cry for? More musical? Less 'hood? More literate? Esoteric. That's the one.
Oh, and here is a link to the only Skinny Puppy track I have, which Vox shunned aside. http://torridmolly.googlepages.com/01Immortal.mp3
It will soon be my summer anthem for many many moons--if I remember the night at all ;P That's what cameras are for, yeah?
Here are the rules:
- Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
- People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
- At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
- Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
1) I try to re-read the Lord of the Rings series at least once every year, just because I love it so much.
2) I clean my own space on my own schedule, which doesn't correspond to the madre's grand "get it done post-haste" plan. Surprise.
3) I just heard the following phrase from my padre and laughed hysterically: "The only 'Mark' I know is the sound a hare-lipped dog makes."
4) I like the smell of gasoline fumes--mmm, carcinogenic.
5) I'm a fairly good archer, but I'm not strong enough yet to draw my dad's honest-to-God longbow.
6) I'm a damn good shot when it comes to paintball
7) I'm paranoid about debt, so if I can help it I'm never getting a credit card.
8) I like driving fast, and never get caught. ;)
I tag no one, so there.
What are five books that changed your life?
1. Lord of the Rings
2. Leaves of Grass
3. Romeo & Juliet
4. The Bell Jar
5. The Great Gatsby
You are The Lovers
Motive, power, and action, arising from Inspiration and Impulse.
The Lovers represents intuition and inspiration. Very often a choice needs to be made.
Originally, this card was called just LOVE. And that's actually more apt than "Lovers." Love follows in this sequence of growth and maturity. And, coming after the Emperor, who is about control, it is a radical change in perspective. LOVE is a force that makes you choose and decide for reasons you often can't understand; it makes you surrender control to a higher power. And that is what this card is all about. Finding something or someone who is so much a part of yourself, so perfectly attuned to you and you to them, that you cannot, dare not resist. This card indicates that the you have or will come across a person, career, challenge or thing that you will fall in love with. You will know instinctively that you must have this, even if it means diverging from your chosen path. No matter the difficulties, without it you will never be complete.
What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.
I really, really like those results. I'm a lover.
Metal Church postponed the show tonight because their drummer hurt his back and had to be flown back to New York. Then Addiction Device couldn't make it, so the show tonight was just the Surfers and Killjay. Hell, I'm not complaining.
...
He makes me feel so happy.
Supposedly, if I feel able tomorrow night (that is, if I get ANY sleep AT ALL), I'll be able to go on a "ghost hunt" around the theatre with Jeff and Toby. I'm excited, I want to see the mysteries of The Princess...
Nikki and I have started an art project on the walls of her apartment--I started to draw my "Old Tree Man" design on her door, and we decided we should paint it sometime in the spring, to celebrate growth. There's a little bird and squirrel in the boughs, a mushroom at the base, a hole under the trunk with eyes of evil peering out. And the Tree Man is breathing out curlicues of life, and a bird is flying from them. I drew two cupped, uplifted hands at the top of the tree, and a tiny tree sprouting from them. In the top right corner I wrote, "Let it be, let it be, seeking words of wisdom, let it be". I can't wait to paint it and show everyone!
