It has been literally years since posting in this journal (hence why I am not a journal writer, anyway), but now that college is done, I can move on with my life and have more time on here!   I just did a MAJOR overhaul on some unwanted or old deviations, so I am terribly sorry if you had any of the deleted ones favorited...my artistic maturity has really blossomed since most of those were constructed, and it's time to start anew!  Hang in there, and you'll be seeing lots of new stuff!    I only kept my most recent deviation, and the one that is most favorited, but I luvs all you guys, and I won't be such a stranger on here anymore!  'Night!

Okay, it's been over a year since my last journal entry.  That's how busy (and possibly retarded I am).  I will admit that I have been putting it off; I've just had nothing to write about...

I still don't have much to write about, 'cept for the fact that I just got back to the pool and I am so ready for summer.    Also, I am excited for a possible new job(s) for the summer.  I used to work at Cinemark, but my availability (and the economy, though they wouldn't admit it) caused them to "let me go" not long ago.  GAH!!  I love working there!  Free movies!  

Also, I got a dog.  Back in November...    YAY for me on keeping people posted on the most exciting aspects of my college life!  NOT!!  (So '90s, sorry...)  Anyway, he's a Siberian Husky with one blue eye and one brown eye.  His name is Kale (Hawaiian for Manly and Strong...)    He's just a pup, only recently turned two.

Um...let's see what else.  I'm actually looking forward to posting some wilderness photos I took back in '07.  I've actually been meaning to post them...for a while now.  Figures.   They are from my elk and antelope hunting trips from that year, both of which I was successful!  Meh.  That's for another journal entry...perhaps.

Another thing I am SUPER excited for is my first year in marching band!  HAHA.  Lame, I know.  My fourth year of college and I FINALLY got talked into joining it.  I'm debating which instrument I want to be on, though.  I played baritone for pep band this spring, but sousaphone looks fun and so does joining the Bruces (our trombone section for those who aren't aware of that...*clears throat*...fact.)  I think I may have already made my decision, but none shall render that truth from me until that week of all weeks... Band Camp.  

Ok.  It's official.  I'm hungry and tired.  Tomorrow is first day back from Spring Break '09 and I cannot wait to see the amount of freshman (and other classmen, too) that are dead tired zombies because they did not plan accordingly.

I am off!

I hope all is well with you!

Remember: Jesus loves you!

Ta-tah!

Hah.  It's Sunday.  And it's already almost over ...  Wow.  I really don't know what to write except to say that I am finally done with my truck.    

Cloud (the mare, darn you!):  It's about time, too...she wouldn't shut up about it!    (Oh, and BTW, Allie wore black and red today, to look nice for church...  I think Vincent's rubbing off on her )

Vincent:  I am not rubbing her in any way! ...  

She didn't mean that, my friend.  What she meant was that you wear black and red, and the fact that I decided to where red and black today means that I am copying you, basically....  But, that just happens to have always been my favorite color combination, thank you very much, Cloud!  

Yep.  My truck is done!    Oil change and ABS sensor was done today!  Got the tires rotated for free yesterday, so we are all set for the long drive back up to CSU next Saturday.

I think this is going to be a VERY short journal; I don't feel much like writing right now.    I submitted another art piece here to DA.  Frankly, it sucks.  I CANNOT draw people to save my life!    Animals are my specialty and I think I am going to stick to them.  Check it out, if you like.  You won't be impressed...  

Okay.  I am finished with the rather un-lengthy journal.  Have a good night everyone.  I don't know when I will write again!    Peace!

Okay, it's official!  I'm in such a fantastic mood right now!  My Vincent print came today and I cannot wait to see it on my wall!    Thank you so much, *ShardGlass!  Her art is AMAZING!  If you get a chance to check it out, I HIGHLY recommend doing so!

Here's the print:

It so awesome!  

This will be another short journal as I am hungry for dinner...

I finally fixed the AC/heater blower in my truck today!    It was going all dandy and smooth until we put the dash back together and it wouldn't turn on!    So, my dad banged on it where the switch is with his fist (nothing like good ol' Redneck truck fixin') and voila!  It worked!  

Gah!  I am supposed to work tomorrow after church, but have I gotten a phone call...?  NO!    I swear this woman I work for, though she pays GREAT and the kids are fantastic, is the slowest person I have ever met!    I know, I should be forgiving and move on, but this is happening a lot, and right now, it's the only job I have.  

  Floating like a little angel with a halo over her head...  

Sephiroth:  You are so funny!    

Um, does Bela know you're talking to me, Sephy?

Sephiroth:    Don't call me Sephy!  And I am a god (almost), so I can be in two places at once!  

Okay... *coughcoughI'msogladhe'sfictionalcoughcough*

Sephiorth:

Vincent:  It is quite regal how this woman writes these journals.   it's almost like she has ADD...

Vincent! Be quiet, please?  I don't have clinical ADD, I just can't sit still to save my life and I have about a dozen plates spinning in my head at one time.  

Cloud:  She's almost as bad as Yuffie...  

When did you get here, Cloud?

Cloud:  *Runs hands through spiked blonde hair* Um...just now....

Sephiroth:    So glad you could join us, Cloud.  

Cloud:  Are you now?  

Sephiroth:  Indeed!  My Masamune has been lonely with no one to impale.  

*The Buster Sword and Masamune meet in a clash of steel, sending sparks flying all around my room...*  

BOYS!!!  Please!   I am trying to write here!  Vincent, help, please?

Vincent:  It is not my fight, Allie.  It is between them; it has been between only them since Sephiroth first discovered who he really was and what was done to him.

Yeah, and he went insane and tried to kill the whole world.  Yeah, yeah, I know.    Really, Vincent, you are no help.  Thanks though.  *Dodges a sword*

Anyway.  I need to call that woman about working tomorrow, so I will finish this myself!  *Grabs Vincent's Cerberus and shoot two rounds into the ceiling*

Cloud:  

Sephiroth:  

Okay, boys, I have had enough!    Please try and kill each other elsewhere!  Oh, and Cloud, would you please tell Tifa I said hi!    Sephiroth, I want your hair!   Tell me, please, how I can get mine that long and shiny!

Cloud:  ...  Okay...

Sephiroth:  Try shampoo and conditioner.  

*coughcoughjackasscoughcough*  I know that!  I do use both of those!  What about...

Vincent:  You have mahogany-colored hair, though...  

I know, Vince.  Thank you.    I didn't say I wanted it's color, just it's length and beauty.

Cloud:  *Puts tip of Buster Sword against Sephiroth's throat*  Wanna take this elsewhere, Sephy?  

Sephiroth:   *Places tip of Masamune against Cloud's chest*  I always liked this side of you, Cloud.  It is the SOLDIER in you.  On the roof!  

And there they go, off to try and rip each other's hearts out.    Again...

Vincent:  When have they ever not tried doing that?  



Alright.  Good night, everyone!  Remember:  Jesus loves you!   Peace.    

Nice!  I just got a call from my "boss" today saying that I did not have to come in.  YAY!  

I say "boss" in quotes because I am a nanny, in all actuality.  And my boss is the children's mother.  

Whew.  Well, now that I can finally have a full day for myself, I think I am going to go shopping.  My little brother's birthday is next Saturday (the 19th) and I haven't gotten him a gift yet!  

I also need to go get parts for my truck.  She's due for an oil change as well (which will hopefully get done tomorrow...).  The oil change is the easy part.  I can do that in about two hours.  (Yes for those who have the over their heads, I do all my own maintenance work on my truck, Obsidian.  I grew up in a Southern family and even us girls were taught young how to maintain a good, clean running vehicle...)  Anyway.  She also needs a new ABS (automatic braking system) sensor and a new AC/heater blower resistor and switch.  

  I am so glad this is all happing while I'm at home, instead of back in Fort Collins.  I could do it up there, but it would take a whole friggen day and I would need a lot of room and most the time, even on the weekends, the parking lots aren't very empty.



Well, anyway.  My brother is in with Halo 3.  He kicks ass at the game.  I'm thinking I am going to get him something related to that game for his birthday.

Master Chief: Logically, he does not need any more Halo merchandise.  All of the gifts you've given him for previous birthdays have gone ignored.  

Chief, shouldn't you be killing some grunts or hunters or maybe brutes?  Please,  it's the the thought that counts!

MC:    Yes, however, if he...

Chief, out!  OUT!!!

MC:  Yes, ma'am.  

Vincent:  

Anyway.  I love MC, but sometimes he speaks too bluntly.  So, where was I?  

Oh, yeah.  My broha's b-day.  Meh.  I have no idea what to get him.  But I guess that's what shopping is for.

Short journal.  Sorry guys...

Ta-ha!
