It's Not Mine...I Swear...

Well, I'm back from house sitting...actually, I was back on Saturday, but I had a busy few days, so this is the first chance I got to do a new post...

House sitting went pretty well...I always have a good time over there...I just watch movies all day and hang out with a bunch of dogs and cats...

Surprisingly, I was able to even get my homework finished...I did the majority of it a couple of days before I left, so all I had to do was post in the discussion threads which I could easily do at the house...just had to make sure I made the time...I also went to my police classes too...I just had to leave a lot earlier...

Speaking of that, we had the K9 officers come in finally...that was pretty cool...everyone was looking forward to that...and it was well worth the wait...they discussed the training the dogs have to go through and all that good stuff...these were very well trained and disciplined dogs...it was very cool...everyone was all excited and happy....and then, they busted out with the domestic violence class and brought everybody down...but, it was still a good class =P

I got $150 for house sitting, so I bought a few items that I've been eyeing for a while...I got one of those moss bags...those "man purses" as they've been referred to since I've had it...it's pretty handy to have....I don't have to lug around my backpack everywhere...I can't hold my big sketch book in it though, but I can put my regular size one in there...if I wanna bring my big one, I just have to carry it separately.
I got a few other odds and ends...went to Hot Topic looking for a new wallet, but I didn't see any that I liked...I'll check back in a few weeks and see what I can find...
I also picked up Cloverfield...I haven't bought any dvd's in a couple months, so I thought I should get at least one...I haven't really bought much of any collection stuff lately...no star wars figures, no dvd's (save for yesterday's purchase), no comics, no WW2 stuff...
I've been doing some job searching...I had an interview at Petco yesterday...they're opening a new one 5 minutes from my house, so I'm trying to get in there, so I could just ride a bike to work instead of driving...of course, I'd have to drive until I could afford the bike...heh heh...so, they'll be calling people Monday for second interviews. Wish me luck.

I think that's all that's going on right now...I gotta remember to get my mom a mother's day/birthday gift...that'll give me a reason to go back to World Market for more than just that flask...heh

Until we meet again...

I shall remain...

The Eye of the Beholder...

So, I spent the weekend with m'lady...we had a good time, but the highlight was going to the park and taking pictures...It was a special experience...I now know that I've been bitten by the photography bug...I would like to dabble in the art of photography...At the moment, I'm lacking equipment...The camera we used was Rose's, so I can only dabble when I see her...It would be nice to have a good camera to use when we aren't able to be with each other...

So, without further ado, go check out my Deviantart page to see what we accomplished...
I only posted the creme de la creme...to see more check out my Myspace page.

I really look forward to dabbling more into photography and perhaps pimp myself out and sell some prints when I get better...

In other news, tomorrow I will be housesitting until Saturday, as I stated before...that's all I have to say about that...

I also saw one of my cats lick the other's butt...

Lick. It.

Gross.

With that, I shall take my leave. Keep in touch, True Believers!

Excelsior!

Me vs. The Weather Master vs. Hillary...

Hey, True Believers!

(You don't mind if I use that from now on, do you, Stan?)

I had another week of my Citizen's Academy...it's been pretty fun and interesting lately. Yesterday, we had the local municipal court judge talk to us about the local court system. It was pretty informative...and the court here is open to the public, so I may go check it out sometime. If it's anything like "Night Court", I'll be there all the time!
We were supposed to have the K-9 officers talk to us yesterday, but there was a scheduling problem and it got postponed to another week...so, we just talked about block watches and what we can do to protect ourselves from theft and the like and what we should do to help facilitate the return of stolen items. Good times!

So, what's up with this weather? It was fucking snowing today! It's the middle of fucking April! Of course, 5 minutes later it was sunny again...

W-T-F, man...

W.
T.
F.

I am determined to find the mad scientist who keeps mucking with our weather. I'm convinced there's a person of Super-Villain stature at work here...and I shall expose him.

My mom mentioned that she's supporting Hillary Clinton now...what is the world coming to?
My family is against me in my fight for a Hillary-free election.

I forgot a couple of items to get at the store the other day. I wanted to buy a notebook to write down story ideas I get on the road and a small little sketch diary for the same. Next time I'm out I'll pick those up.

I will be house-sitting next week for my mom's friend. I believe I've spoken about the house before...it's pretty awesome...I look forward to it...and they pay me pretty well for living in their house for a week, taking care of their sometimes overly affectionate ( but still cute anyway) dogs. Should be good times. I will be broadcasting live from the house all next week (well, Tuesday thru Saturday), so be sure to catch all the exciting action.

Ok, I think that's it for the now. See ya next time!

Excelsior!

(Sorry, Stan...You know, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!)

A Guy Walks Into a Store...

I bought some stuff at the store yesterday...how exciting is that? Not exactly a noteworthy post, but things have been kinda slow today and I haven't posted in a few days, so I thought I should write something...

So, here's what I bought...

1. A little, cheap dayplanner.
2. A bag of pens.
3. Deodorant.
4. Shaving Cream.
5. A metal light switch plate.

I oughta have some fun with that stuff!

I Love America

I filed my taxes yesterday...hopefully I did them properly...I used Turbo Tax (.com)...they have this cool little feature that calculates your refund as you go along...turns out, I'll be getting about $858 back PLUS $300 for the rebate everyone gets...
I guess that useless economic stimulus package isn't so bad after all...

I figure I'll save it after I buy a few choice items...

Such as a Utilikit and a couple of DVD sets, like this one...

Excelsior!

A Whole New World...

So, yesterday, Rose and I went to World Market...I'd never been there before...I loved it...
She went there to get this cool little dish set with a little caddy...it was cute...
While I was there, I found this bitchin' flask that I wanna buy...It's silver and...metal...anyway, it's pretty neat...I've been wanting one for a long time...yes, I know I don't drink, but it's cool just to have one...it's one of those guy things...every man should own one...much like a zippo lighter...which I used to have, but I lost, so I'm on the lookout for a new one...

I also found Coppola wine...which I should buy as I'm a movie geek...I looked for Skywalker Ranch wine, but they didn't have any...I guess I'll just have to buy that online...

On a side note, I think my cat pissed in my room somewhere, but I can't find it...

I intend to do some serious drawing this week and work on my homework...

Excelsior!

You All Promote Yourselves Better...

I've been trying to get people to buy stuff related to my artwork, but nobody really seems interested...I don't think I'm promoting myself well enough...I don't know enough geeks...I've been trying to get more involved in the geek communities, but haven't been very successful...I joined a couple of message boards and such, but I don't hang out with enough geeks...
If I had money, I'd go hang out at Comic Book Ink in Tacoma...I've been having comic withdrawals...I miss buying my comics...I don't really have anyone to discuss them with anyway...
I've been wanting to draw some sketch cards, but I'm not sure how to go about getting the word out so that people would want to buy them...I know there are people out there who love that stuff, but I have yet to find them...
I'm working on some art projects that will hopefully help pimp me out, so we'll see how that goes...In the meantime, I continue the search for more geek friends...

Citizen's Academy Part 1

Well, I've had 3 classes at the Citizen's Academy...they've been fun so far...we've just been learning about the law and how to spot a crime and how to deal with them, etc.
Yesterday, we got to do mock scenes where we played the officers going on a few calls and trying to deal with them.
The first one was a drunk guy walking in the middle of the street. We kinda failed that one miserably because we let him go and we walked back in to traffic and got hit by a car. But, we weren't getting graded or anything, but the officer would talk to us about what we did and such.
The next call was a domestic violence, where the woman threw a piece of wood at the guy, so she went to jail. We did a little better at that one. We just needed to keep them separated a little more.
The third one was a woman coming in to the PD wanting to report a theft. I got that she was acting kinda funny by her body language and such and she kept changing her story, etc. We did pretty good at that one, but there was one major piece of the puzzle that we were missing...she had pills in her purse.
All-in-all, it was pretty fun. Next week, we're learning about the traffic laws. I have some good questions about that...heh.
A few of us volunteered to be tazed, too, but that won't be til later. Heh heh.

Ok, thanks to Jeri, I will be updating over here more often...

I haven't been here since September, holy cow....I've been kind of preoccupied with Myspace, but I will try to give you attention here as well...Just because you are the youngest, doesn't mean I love you less...

A little quick update since the last time we spoke...

I got a job, then had to quit...I have a woman now...I've started school again...I got a new car that I can't really pay for...ummm....that's about it...

I'm doing the Bonney Lake Police Citizen's Academy, which I talked about over here and I'll be updating about that once a week...which I'm a little behind on since we're in our second week and I haven't talked about the first one yet...nyeh...

So, don't you fret...I shall not leave you again (Pronounced uh-gayn)....

Peace, Love and Hot Dogs...
