My brain on candy

Happy Halloween/Last Harvest/Samhain!! =D
I just went trick-or-treating! =D I'm in a candy daze right now. I can't hold my sugars! XD

Anyhoo, my Sister went as Lydia, my Mom went as Miss Argentina, (both from Beetlejuice) Joe went as himself, (jeans, cheesy Frankenstein Tshirt, flannel shirt, heavy boots, greased back hair, and mutton shops. He always dresses like that. XD) and I went as Heath Ledger's Joker! At first, I was going to go as a road kid, (a hobo apprentice) but I lost my hat. So I was going to go as myself again. I was contentedly playing Angry Birds on Mom's iPhone when they caught me, stuffed me in a purple jacket, a green tie, and face paint. I was quite bewildered, but it ended up looking awesome. =D
So we went and (politely) started pillaging houses, when I met my friend Cooper, who was dressed as a Wii remote. (which, by the way, proves to be a rather hazardous costume. People kept yelling stuff at him and hitting him. (presumably trying to press the cardboard buttons) It took all the self preservation I had (which isn't very much) to not call them all 'bloody rat bastards' and let them have knuckle sandwiches.) He was split off from his group, so we traveled together for the rest of the trip. At one point, we were waiting around for someone else, and some little kids were looking at my costume. So I did some Joker impressions. When they passed, I kept talking to myself (as I am wont to do when nervous) and started spouting more Dark Knight lines. Suddenly, "I'm Batman." Came out. I, of course, corrected myself. "No. Wait. I'm not Batman. I'm.... Joker? No." I thought for a moment, then looked up and said in the grainy Batman voice "I'm the illegitimate child of Batman and-" I stopped, finding Cooper staring at me with the expression of utmost shock and horror upon his face. Poor guy. He'll never be able to get the images out of his innocent little mind. =(

Well, happy Halloween! Good haul. =D
PS! Sorry for scarring your mind, dude. XD

Qapla!! =^_^=

what to draw...

Well, I'm out of stories to tell at the moment. It isn't that I'm lacking in creativity, it's just that nothing UBER exiting is happening right now that I'd want open to the public. =^.~ Not that I'm guilty of flying around with Batman, busting gang bangers, and following through with my plans of world domination with the help of titanium robot sandworms or anything like that...... Ahem. Moving on. n_n;
I have been drawing quite a bit of manga though! I will scan and post some of them the next time I am allowed access to a printer! (around Wednesday ish)

Until then,
Qapla!! =^^=

PS!! Now that I'm mostly over the Sick (maj!! =D) I am continuing with my learning Klingon!! =)

My first Star Wars novel!! =D

I have taken another step in my Geekdom. My Dad has bestowed me with my first Star Wars novel, "The Truce at Bakura."

As I sat and looked at the cover, trying to (rather foolishly) judge it's contents by it's amazingly cheesy cover. Suddenly, I realized that it was probably pretty much fanfiction, minus a few crack pairings here and there. I do not mean to offend any purists, but it wasn't created by Lucas Films was it? The only difference was that it was OWNED by them. I imagined it as a very big, very dusty, very old Fanfic.net backup. This mental image amused me thoroughly, so I posted it. I haven't started reading it quite yet, as I'm still savoring the mystery as to the nature of it's contents, but I will read it tonight. I will make an update in the morning. =D

Maladaptive Daydreaming

I have found that I'm a Maladaptive Daydreamer! I have every symptom displayed by Wikipedia. This comes as an immense relief to me. For a while, I thought that I might have mild Schizophrenia, due to my hallucinations and inner dialogue. (I have determined that the hallucinations are just my 'projecting' my fantasies into my real life. (I know that they aren't 'real' in a material sense) The inner dialogue is probably due to slight loneliness.) I really didn't quite know how to look at it (I kept worrying that I may have something else) until I told myself that it doesn't really matter, and it won't change who I am. I took this advice to heart, and I'm not going to worry about it. Besides, it isn't disturbing me, and I like daydreaming. It gives me my own little fantasy that I can interact with. It keeps me from getting bored from the monotony of my life. =)

Health to all!
Qapla!!

Hey. I'm Batperson.

I watched "Batman Begins" today. I'm in shock. IT. WAS. SO. AWESOME.

I'm going to be Batman's side kick!! =D
I'm going to make myself a cape. And a utility belt. And a mask. And a BULLET PROOF TECH SUITE.
Oooh yea. It's gonna be great. }=D
Now I just have to come up with a good name....  AND I've gotta find batman. This part will be easy. All I have to do is stage a crime, and wait for crazy people in capes to try and stop me. I'll join up with the one who proclaims himself Batman. The guy just can't help pumping up his ego. He HAS to let EVERYONE know that HE'S THE Batman. XD This is gonna be a breeze.

Rest in Peace Dennis Ritchie and Steve Jobs

A mastermind of our times, Dennis Ritchie, was found dead on the 12 this month, just 7 days after Steve Jobs died. I found this on the Wikipedia news board today. I didn't know them, and I can't pretend to, but I still feel a small twinge of sadness.
I feel a bit pained that I never got to thank them personally for their enormous help in developing the technical world, but I know that I will always be able to find them in the freedom of systems triggered and inspired by UNIX, and the elegance of Apple products. A wisp of their spirit still lingers in their designs, dances in the vast cyber planes of the grid, and whispers in the little cracks, crevices, snippets and strings of code. They also live on in the millions that have been touched by their brilliance, and I will do my best to bring freedom and creativity to the world as they did.
My heart also goes out to their friends and family. Even if I didn't know them, I know the pain of losing someone close, and I wish them full health and happiness.

My appreciation of what you have given to this world goes to you, my late friends. May you pass on to your next adventure, changing the world as you go, and always be met with positivity and health.

Chug! Chug!! Chug!!! Chug!!!

No matter how many times I get sick, I never seem to remember just how plain out annoying it is. There's the fever-dreams, the long nights, the snot, the hacking and coughing, the lack of appetite.... Not to mention the weird stuff my Mom makes me drink. Now, I love my Mom, and I fully appreciate her giving me things to make my life better, but Theraflu is not something you want to drink very much of. Scratch that. You probably wouldn't ever want to drink Theraflu in any amount. Especially when you are expected to chug it down so that your sister can have the rest before it cools. It is not particularly nice to chug anything, (except maybe warm tea) and this stuff lands up there with 'sand,' 'bourbun,' 'very small rocks,' and 'motor oil' on the 'DO NOT CHUG LIST.'
At least I'm not vomiting. That'll come next month. =P

PS!! I have never consumed bourbon in my life, and I do not expect to any time soon, along with all other alcohols.
