Comic: The Axe

Here's a comic I drew based on a video game (um, I don't know which one, Dutch Boyfriend told me about a game with weapons and each weapon has a different backstory to it.).

Hope you enjoy! (Click for a larger image!)

Look at my Sandwich!



It's made of heart-shaped tomatoes. Seriously...my tomato slices ended up this way.

Also, thanks to my Droid's RetroCam for bringin' back the Polaroid!

Typically Zenon-like

Lately I've been realizing that I'm not happy unless I have at least two, if not three, electronic, internety, visually amusing things around me.

This really hit me the other night when I was watching Glee's final two episodes on TV. At the moment, I was doing some research online when my mom happened to flip to the channel. Once I heard Rachel Berry's voice, I instantly jerked my head to the side, "Mom! LET'S WATCH GLEE!" I wanted to jump on the couch, but took a second look at my laptop. TV. Laptop. TV....ohh, it's a laptop for a reason.

Took my laptop, smacked it on my lap and happily bounced to the music.

Then I wondered about a definition for some word. You know, you'd think that I'd look it up on Dictionary.com on my laptop, but nay, I pulled out my HTC and looked up the definition on my Dictionary.com App (heh).

Of course, this is just a little example of something practiced widely across the country. How lucky are we?

Zooey Deschanel


That's right. Instead of talking about Fall TV (which I really wanted to talk about because I'm really excited), I'm stuck on a bicycle for Zooey Deschanel. Why? Honestly, I think that I've been playing She & Him's Volume Two way too often. Huh.

I'll admit, like most of you, I became fond of her in Elf where she sang a wonderful rendition of "Baby It's Cold Outside" with Will Ferrell (Christmas songs = big points). I loved her music in Yes Man ("I'm not your late night booty-call...") and I instantly fell for her in 500 Days of Summer.

She's one classy lady. Although, I don't know if you remember that one episode of Top Chef Masters where she was a guest star: the contestants had to cook a meal for her and her friends and family. Amazingly she had lots of dietary restrictions...vegetarian, no dairy or eggs, wheat and soy-intolerant (gluten too?), but overall, still very humble about it all.

I look forward to her future roles. Don't you?

Additionally, here's an article you should read: The Face of Facebook

OCMA

Yesterday was my first day volunteering at the Orange County Museum of Art for their monthly family event. It was a great experience.

What happens is that the museum has a bunch of arts and crafts tables whose projects are inspired by works of art within the museum. I was working on the Monoprints (where we got to churn out images on an awesome printing press. I want one. Now.) and the other volunteers delighted me and the kids amused me.

There was one boy another volunteer and I particularly bonded with because he was determined to make art that was "full of emotion". He succeeded by drawing a few trees with different feelings; one of which had some freshly broken branches and said, "oh, why do the good die young?"

Additionally, this kid found out that I had no job at the moment, and he exclaimed, "WHAT! You have no job?!" After a minute he calmed down and put his hand on my shoulder and said, "In these times of economic downturn, it's hard to find a job. Don't blame yourself."

Is that the most awesome thing ever or what?

Everyone Should Be Prepared

















As for me, nail polish seems to be it.
