Pinky, Thea and a work in progress of Nicole
by The Revenge on January 28, 2006 at 11:31 amAs with most days there is a lot on my mind, I’m not sure how much of it I will type out but I can almost guarantee it will be rather long winded. I’ve been trying to keep my posts bite sized since I know how annoying it can be to have 5 page posts to read, but sometimes they just end up that way. That being said…here we go.
I guess I should first start out with my Wednesday hang out with Thea. As some of you know Thea is a girl I dated back in 2002, and the girl in question in an infamous post I made a little over a month ago. Well I ran into her at Fred Myer where she works last Thursday the 19th and she seemed very happy to see me. Likewise I was happy to see her, but that remains neither here nor there. Quickly into our little conversation she asked me if I wanted to hang out to which I promptly responded “hell yes”. I know not the classiest response I could have given but I feel it got the point across that I was more then eager to hang out with her.
Well we agreed upon the next Wednesday (the 25th) to hang out since we both had that day off. I get off work Wednesday morning at 9:25am as always and head over to my sisters house to try and fix their internet a-fuckin’-gain but to no avail. Though I think I know what the problem is, the network card in Mike’s computer is F’d in the A. Anyway just before 10am my side starts to vibrate and I hear the tune of Pinky and the Brain and after I stop dancing to the beat of mice world domination I grab the phone and see that it is Thea calling me so I answer it gleefully. Now I wasn’t expecting her to call me until later that afternoon, but I guess she set her alarm for 9am when I got off work. Yes, you could say this made me extremely happy for the rest of the day.
As normal we had no idea what we wanted to do, so I told her I would call her back when I was finished with the RDcomics things I had to get done that morning and hopefully by then her or I would think of something. Well, she ended up coming over around 2:30 or 3:00pm and our only idea was to watch movies or whatever. Not a bad idea because we both like movies a lot and it’s a good reason to sit in the dark together. We didn’t watch a movie right away though, we talked a lot about various things as people in situations such as these tend to do. She seemed eager to talk to me and told me a few times that I was looking really good and such (which is a huge lie, but ok). When it came movie time I started up the movie and turned the lights out and like a gentleman I sat on the left middle of the couch giving her almost half of the couch to herself as not to seem like I was trying to get all up in her. Much to my surprise she moved over and sat really close to me, she was basically cuddling up to me for the movie. Not that I’m complaining one bit, just sort of shocked me at first.
I gave her a call today but sadly I interrupted a movie that her and her mother where watching and then she had to go to work so hopefully I will hear back from her in the next few days. That’s about all I can update on that. Oh, well I guess I could say that she still makes me smile.
There is a girl here at work that I recognize from my past. I can’t seem to pin point what point in my life I knew her, but I know I used to hang out with her and talk to her a lot. If I had testicles I would go ask her what her name and try to piece it together, but alas I lost them back in ‘Nam. Oh well she is gone. That’s ok I’m pretty into Thea right now.
I started this drawing at home that I was hoping to work on here, it’s a new drawing of my good friend Nicole Moriarty, but alas I forgot it at home. That’s ok though I will just work on it more later today then bring it in tonight and hopefully finish it. This is what it looks like right now.
I have some other drawings I need to get to a stage that I can bring here and detail while I’m wasting my life away working graveyard. I need to draw a monkey in a forest, the other ‘WIRES’ drawings and more backgrounds for y2cl2point0. Hopefully I will find sometime in the next week to finish some of these. On a plus note I finished the art on the next y2cl strip and I am close to closing all the storylines that need to be cloed to I can launch y2cl2point0, not that you care.
So my shoulder hurts like hell and I am supposed to bow1 2 games tomorrow for the tournament and my league. I decided to throw three games this morning to see what I could do and how much it would hurt. Well I ended up with 627 for three (181, 201, and 245) and only the first game really hurt. One thing I noticed was that my ball speed was a lot slower because I couldn’t put as much power behind it as I normally do when my shoulder doesn’t hurt. That’s ok though, if I can just stay consistent tomorrow and shoot a decent series each set I should at least cash in one of the events.
I just found out that this girl I’ve been crushing on since I started working at the bowling alley just broke up with her boyfriend of like 2 years. The only problem is I’m friends with both of them…blast.

Wires 1-3 and CALVIN IS GETTING MARRIED! TO A WOMAN!
by The Revenge on January 10, 2006 at 9:35 am
not bad if I say so myself. Still needs work.
So the most awesome thing happened last night, Calvin told me that him and Carly are finally going to get married!! Then he asked me if I would be his best man! I mean I knew he was going to ask me to be his best man at his wedding because he has been telling me this for years, but for it to actually happen, it still surprised me and makes me really happy. This probably sounds extremely gay but fuck you homophobes he’s my best fucking friend and I’ll sound gay about it if I want! Now I just need to figure out what kind of bachelor party to throw for him, a question that’s been on my mind for about three years.
So here are the happenings of work tonight. Romeo came in and gave me a bag of Lumpia that his wife made (This is sweeeeeet cause I love lumpia). I ordered a French dip because I was S to the T to the arving and when I took my second bite, full of au jus I was leaning over the plate not to drip it everywhere and apparently I was to far horizontal because some au jus sauce went up my nose via the inside tract. This is the weirdest thing I’ve experienced in a while. I also took a shit the size of Antarctica.
I have a special treat for all of you coming up, something I think you will all really enjoy. I need to decide how I want to post it, so stay tuned.
Thank you but I don’t do this for applause, I do it for cash. It’s much better that way. ~Eddie Izzard
and now I sleep.

Wires 1-2 and some Brokeback stuff
by The Revenge on January 9, 2006 at 9:36 am
I’m really liking how this is coming along
Man after reading Vern talk about the sex scenes in Brokeback Mountain now I REALLY want to see it. Even though I always feel embarrassed when I’m I theatre and there is sex on the screen, like I’m some sort of pervert. I guess the bonus will be I am going to go see it alone, due to my fuckered up schedule, I’ll be sure to wear my trench coat with shorts and my hair all a mess.
I was supposed to work 1pm to 9pm on Saturday, but I called in since I got off at 9am that day and was way to fucking tired to be able to go in for work 4 hours later. So I ended up falling asleep around noon forty-five and woke up at 6:35am Sunday morning. I guess I was a little tired.
Well I had to leave at around 8am to drive up to Port Angeles to bowl travel league. Long story short that was a waste of time and a bowled like donkey shit. It didn’t help that the entire time my vision was a little blurred, I had a tremendous head ache and I felt noxious the entire time. Then I went and picked up Barbara and Krista to try and help Krista get some of her items back from an ex-coworker of theirs (I was the muscle), she didn’t get her stuff back but she did find out that this girl does still have it and she will get it back.
At 6pm I went to my bowling league and actually shot decent, even though I still felt like shit. In case you care I shot 226, 232 then 188. The 188 would have been a hell of a lot higher only that game I really started to feel sick and a few times went I went to through my ball I got dizzy and lost my balance a little and couldn’t exactly see the lane very well and threw two balls in the gutter. But oh well, I’m happy with 646 for three.
So while Krista and Barbara where in my car tonight I had Royal Crown Revue in my CD player and their song Hey Pachuco! was on and Krista said “Hey, this is the song from The Mask.” I have to admit I got a little giddy with glee that me one else A) remembers that movie well enough to know the song and B) is able to remember where in the movie the song is. As an added bonus she is very cute.
See at first I just thought she was pretty, but getting to know her a little I find out that her and I have A LOT in common. She likes cartoons like me, she seems to be very nerdy, playing video games and watching super-hero shows. It’s awesome! To bad she has zero interest in me. *cry*
I think after I get off work, and after I help my dad take his car to the shop then go to my dental appointment, I am going to dedicate the rest of the day to fixing the one computer I have that’s a little on the broken side. The first thing I will do is remove the 120 gig hard drive and go from there. If the rest of the computer is fried, so be it, but I would really hate to lose all the information on my back up hard drive.
Speaking of hard drives, I have so much fucking hard drive space its unreal. Let’s tally it up! In one comp I have a 40gig, an 80gig and a 200gig. In my art comp there’s an 80, 2 160’s stripped together as a 300gig drive and a 200gig. In my broken media comp there’s an 8gig and a 120gig. This laptop has 40gig, I have a 20 gig jump drive and I have 200gig up on a server upstairs. That’s 1,308gig of hard drive space. That’s roughly 1.3 terabytes. To give you an idea of how much space that is, I could store 440,000 mp3s, 327 full length DVDs with all menus and special features, 1868 full length Divx movies or 13,080,000 nude photos at 100k each. Good lord. New goal, fill it.
And I don’t want to say I’m sorry, I just want to drink beer and play guitar and…
I’m not sure what song this is from, but I like that line a lot. The song it self is pretty terrible, but that one line I really feel like stealing and putting in a better song. I wonder if they would notice?

Nick at Nite and a preview of Wires
by The Revenge on January 6, 2006 at 4:00 pmThese last few nights I have been watching Nick at Nite here at work, more specifically I have been watching The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, The Cosby Show and Who’s The Boss. I must say, The Fresh Prince is a very white show, as is The Cosby Show. I think the people behind The Fresh Prince where basically wanting to do a lot of white against black jokes, but needed a black front to get away with it. I say this because most of the jokes are very stereotypical, and I think the show would have been the EXACT same if they had Will Smith move in with is white auntie and uncle in Bel-Air, since the entire family is basically black faced white people.
Now The Cosby Show is a little different. I think it got its success, not because it was funny or inventive, but because it wasn’t a black show. There was nothing really ‘black’ about the show besides the color of their skin and I think at the time it was on America really wanted to see a well off black family that wasn’t very black in the way it acted. I dunno, just saying. Oh and Alisa Milano is still hot on Who’s the Boss?.
This is what I have done for one of the drawings for wires, as you can see there’s A LOT more still to do on it. And yes i have been watching Boondocks.

Urinating on the Cow
by The Revenge on December 7, 2005 at 9:42 amI have urinated three times tonight here at work and I have only been here for 2 hours and 40 minutes. I’m kind of wondering if this pace will keep up all night, and if it does how much will it hurt since I am certain I have already pissed out more then I’ve drank all day. I will keep you posted. Also I am extremely hungry which is a little odd since I had dinner about 5pm with my parents…come to think of it that’s not that odd, it has been almost 11 hours since I have eaten anything. And graveyard shift really fucks with your eating schedule. I also seem to be rather tired, even though I napped for three hours before work and I got some good sleep in earlier in the day. Apparently that just wasn’t enough, oh well that’s why god made caffeine. That’s also why she made porno and whores.
Oh, quick note for people interested in Damn The Cow related events we will be playing a show this Saturday at Rush’s in Bremerton with Ruxton Towers and two other bands I can’t remember the name of right now. Check our myspace page for more info on this show, please do come out and pretend you care. This should be a great show so hopefully I will see some of you there.
So tonight is my last night of school and I found out that even if completely FAIL the final tonight with a ZERO I will still pass the class with a 2.2. I am planning on acing this final for a nice 4.0 in the class though, that should really help my overall GPA and make my transfer degree look better. After class I am supposedly going to go see Aeon Flux with and I am very much looking forward to it. Then I will probably pass out or clean my room or something since I don’t have to work tonight or tomorrow night, and let me tell you that is flipping sweet. Thursday I am probably going to be finishing up the Chronicles of Narnia BBC mini series with Sarah and then going to go see the new Narnia movie at 11:59. Now I am not looking forward to the BBC one, but I get all giddy thinking about the new version. God I hope it’s better then the atrocity that is the BBC version. Here’s to hoping that Lucy is only half as ugly and annoying.
Time to draw.

Johnny Cash and Jeff’s house
by The Revenge on December 6, 2005 at 9:45 amI’ve been listening to A LOT of Johnny Cash recently. And by a lot I mean exclusively and nothing but. I suggest you all do the same. In the last two weeks I have bought Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison, Johnny Cash at Sam Quentin, I Walk the Line CD/DVD set, and Orange Blossom Special and let me tell you they ALL kick ass. I can’t wait to have all 60 or 70 of his CD’s. And I will have them all, don’t even think for a second that I won’t.
So as I mentioned my mother got a new Kodak digital camera with printer dock and it takes amazing pictures I love it! I can’t wait to start taking nude photos of meself to post online! It has so many cool settings to take pictures in like action, portrait, landscape and more. I will be posting so many cool pictures and posting them for you all to see (I almost typed hear) can’t you just wait????
So far Jeff’s acquisition of his new house is going by very well and we should be moving in on the 23rd of this month. Yeah that’s two days before Christmas and all but I really don’t care about that I’m just excited to move! I am a little leery about living with Jeff and his girlfriend, but hopefully it all works out. Also bad news possibly for Dylan, our bass player Rick might be needing a place to stay and Jeff might give the third room to him instead of Dylan. He hasn’t said anything along these lines yet to me or Rick, it’s just a hunch. The only problem I really foresee in living with other people is that I work graveyards and getting sleep could be problem since people have a tendency to be rather loud and disrespectful of others who are trying to sleep. We shall see though. I’m also slightly worried about someone breaking in to my car, yes I am a little paranoid about that, but hey it’s a nice car…ok a decent car that looks pretty and I like it a lot. Speaking of which I still need to go down and get a docking port for my Iriver installed, will probably do that after the new year since I’m not allowed to buy myself anything until after Christmas.
That reminds me of something I find very upsetting. Every time I go to a place that sells CDs and I look for Johnny Cash albums all they ever fucking have is best of CDs and shit. I want the original CDs not this best of crap, I HATE best of CDs. So far I have only found four actually Cash CDs and I fear it will be difficult to actually find all the ones he did. I think once I get about 20 or so of them the rest will take some searching. I know where I can buy about five of them right now and I suspect I can buy another 5-10 at Warehouse music, but that’s not all of them damnit! I really need to go up on johnnycash.com and get the list of all the ones he has done and start checking them off. I should also check ebay….this is all of course after Christmas since I’m pretty sure I will be getting a few of them as gifts (hint fucking hint).
For those who want to know what to get me. Buy me ANY Johnny Cash CD EXCEPT:
Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison
Johnny Cash At San Quinton
Orange Blossom Special
I Walk The Line
God
Love
Murder
Or the DVD’s
Live and Montreux 1994
The Man in Black 1969 Documentary
ANY OTHER CD (not best of) or DVD would be freaking AWESOME and I would LOVE you forever!!!!!!!!
