Arm was SOOOO bad last night I could have CRIED. Seriously. This is unfair because it had been getting better before then.

Ku was a sweetheart, and fussed over me at 4AM though. Sweet sweet thing ♥

Sorry to be so sorey on your visit D:

Hi, all. I am excited about this comm because I love Neil, I've read almost everything he's ever written (literally), and I love discussing his work. Here I am a few years ago on Halloween.

Saku: I WISH YOU DIDN'T HAVE A SORE ARM BECAUSE I NEED TO BEAT YOU UP.

I'm loved, people.

Love

You ever look at someone and just know that there's no one else in the entire world meant to be with you but that person? That there's not one single soul who quite matches your own like that one person? Like the universe purposely created the two of you because it knew that you needed each other and no one else could do for you what that one person can do?

I look at her and I know without a shadow of a doubt that my heart was made for her.

Even with all the ups and downs and craziness that our life entails, I'm the happiest I've ever been.

The Boyface is having a nap, cos I used my awesome powers of sleep-getting-into to make him.

I'm still kind of in shock he turned up here, it was a wonderful thing. I'll be quite sad this time next week I'm sure, but I won't think of that now. Or try not to. We know what I'm like.


In quite a kerfuffle about Failboss and all. I didn't go Saturday and Wednesday last week, Sat which I was planning not to because of like holiday. Wednesday I was going to go, but then the boy turned up so I was like "lol, sorry guy". Now I've hurt my arm, so I don't think I'll be getting there before New Years Eve to do her dad's house like she asked. I can't get in like I said, key things. So maybe I shouldn't go. But I said I would. And eeehhh.

Failboss tried to get me to bring Ku to help clean. LOLNO. Fuck off, dude.

I don't know, I worry~ *spin* A lot. Then tomorrow the Job Center will finally be open again and I can drop in my leaflets for Finding Jobs Fund. Hopefully I've done it okay, but if not I'm sure they will tell me how to do it better. Not too worried about that, cept in the usual "scared to start" way. But hey, whatever comes up I can drop Failboss and his Wife like a ton of bricks.


Kind of obsessed with Repo! It's kind of not funny.


Oh~ my dearest sleeping Ku~ I hope you are having fun and not too weirded out by my weird family who are when all is said and done... weird. :3 I am enjoying the hugs and film times, sorry about all the charrie-babble that I always worry will make you stressed or bored of me. And um... let's get sushi tomorrow. Eddie Rocket tomorrow.


Today lots of games and DVDs were bought. It was like £80 christmas cash gone like that, cept Ku was naughty so it was only £60 gone. Let's see... Inglorious Basterds, Eddie Izzard's new DVD, Soul Caliber IV, Brutal Legend and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Cos ya know, I need more things not to watch or play XD;


Sorry about the quietness people, but ya know. That's how it is when a shut-in gets a visitor.

At some point during sleep on the night of the 26th I COMPLETELY fucked up my arm.

It still hurts a lot and is pretty wanky :/

No fun, people. No fun at all.

Even typing with my right hand is kind of difficult...

Christmas

I'm still in shock. Reeling. From one of the best Christmases ever. And the best Christmas present ever. My girlfriend is amazing. Truly. Seriously. AMAZING. She loves me. SO MUCH. I'm still just... floating right now.

Before I explain more, here's a quick run-down for myself to remember who got me what:

Emi:
Calvin & Hobbes: Revenge of the Babysitter
A picture of her and Madi
A picture of her
A picture of Madi

Madi:
Ship in a bottle

Mom and Dad:
7" Digital Sony Frame
Lions Yard Knitting Bag
Figure Drawing Kit
2 Sketchbooks
A box of crayons
The Website Owner's Manual by Paul Boag
Pair of earrings
A ring
Mini Ninjas Wii Game
Kung Fu Panda movie

From Others:
$20 (Oma and Opa)
Digital Picture KeyChain (Aunt Rosemary & Uncle Bob)
Traditional Mix CD (Eric)

From Ash:
Twig the Fairy Calendar
Home Spa Kit
New sweatshirt that I wanted
Window Chalk
Two packages of Blast Spray Writers
Charmed Seasons Four & Five

AND...

Ash, my family, her mom and sister, her dad, and her step-dad all pitched in and got me this amazing glass drawing table! It is beautiful and everything I have ever wanted in a drawing table and more. The glass top makes it a light table as well! How awesome is that?! I have been wanting this table, but I never thought I'd get it because it's a pretty pricey drawing table. But oh my goodness.

Ash had informed me earlier that because she didn't have any money, she was just going to clean and set up my home office for me. I thought that was a great gift and I couldn't wait to see it. Of course, she had tons of gifts for me when I got back from Wisconsin. She said she had still fixed up my room though - she had even wrapped my door and put a bow on it. It was so cute! She went in and first and then called me in. I opened the door expecting to just see my office put together but oh gosh, there was my brand new glass-top drawing table set up, filled with my inking pens and erasers and inside there were drafting tools that Ash's dad had bought me. Her step-dad had helped her set it all up last night, and everyone had pitched in to get it for me.

Let's just say it was understatement that I cried. I pretty much bawled my freakin' eyes out after I got over that initial shock. I still can't believe they all did that. I can't believe Ash, the little ringleader of it all. She knows me better than anyone else. I cannot even begin to describe all the feelings I had looking at that table. I keep going into my office just to make sure it's there. It's so beautiful. So is my girlfriend.

Here's a few more gift things:

I got Ash:
Complete Xena: Warrior Princess Series (w/ the Anniversary Fan Favorites)
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Wii and 400+ Game Guide
Special Edition Legend of Zelda Nintendo DS (it's gold and has the triforce engraved on it - and it also came with the DS game Phantom Hourglass)
The Family Menagerie Website (I'll post a link later)

My Parents Gave Ash:
Tsubasa Manga #18, #19, #20
Oh! My Goddess Manga #3
2 Sketchbooks
A Box of Crayons
Lego Indiana Jones Wii Game

I spent five days in Wisconsin and got back to Austin this evening. Ash took me to dinner at Panda Express so we could just pick up some food and come home to the kids. The dogs went nuts when I got home they were so happy. Of course, what's our house without a little craziness and random events? At around 1:30am, we hear a scratching at our door. Upon investigation, we find a small, rather old, female black dog at our doorstep. Friendly, happy, really really cold. We bundled her up into a kennel and brought her inside for some food and water and warmth. She's really sweet, loves getting her belly scratched, and loves to gives kisses. She's obviously someone's dog. How animals know to knock on our door, I have no idea (it's not the first time we've had an animal knock and walk in - it's how we found Gus Gus who ended up belonging to the lady down the street). Anyway, since it's so late, we're letting her sleep in my office and in the morning we're going to put up signs. Hopefully her family is looking for her and she didn't wander that far. She's very sweet and loving. She's a good pup.

I've only been back in Austin a few hours and life is already back to its normal insanity. I love it. And I love my Ashley Lauren Niels. There really isn't anyone more perfect for me in the entire world. I love her with all my heart.

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Ku keeps punishing me for telling him I love him D: This is a highly unfair thing.

Also he's cute.

Me: Why are you do cute?
Saku: No :D
Me: That's.... not quite a working answer.
Saku: Yes :D

Recently, I did a cosplay of Ayu~ I had the wig for a while, but nothing to wear with it then I thought "Oh! Ayu!" and went from there. I made the apron from a pattern I found online.

Hachikuro doesn't get enough cosplay love!

How nice the Christmas table was before we all ate on it. And before the cheesecake fell on the stuffing.

Mum still ate that slice of cheesecake, by the way.

Here's the new chapters.  Not sure what's wrong with mediafire, but will up that when I get a chance.  I haven't uploaded Photoshop to my computer yet, so what you see is what you get.  I probably won't re-up it, since my computer is so damn slow now...so if you want better quality, go buy the book =)  Merry Christmas!!
