8:54 pm	RAGE! Dear stupid piece of shit landlord. You are the worst human being I've ever met. I hope you die and have a cheap funeral. Dear mr Rentalsman. You are fucking useless. What is your goddamn job again? Fuck you. Dear magical bruise above my eye....where the hell did you come from?? What a wonderful day. Really. Current Mood: aggravated (Comment on this)

1:26 pm	I'm slowly re-starting my battle with sleep. I was really winning for awhile! But now it seems it's gained the upper hand. I wish my brain had an off switch. Having it constantly aflutter while I should be knocked out is.. inconvenient. Though a good deal of why it is now, isn't the usual Dan going 'REAAAHAHAHGGHH!! HAWOH.. SHO-KOKEN!!!!' (sorry, inside joke. Meaning concentrating ones rage into a really big directed fireball) It's of a... not angry thing. So.. maybe it isn't all bad. Just have to see I guess. Or get drunk. That usually works. Current Mood: tired Current Music: Paul Stanley - Magic Touch (Comment on this)

1:34 am	I"m not dead, but my comp sure was! Gouah!! What a frustrating ordeal it's been with this blasted box.. we call it SkyNet here. It seems bent on stopping anything we want to do easily. New hard drive and a few more blown parts later it finally freaking works. I'll have pics from my rather grand vacation up later, once I get the memory card :D And in my catching up on past, I see I got tagged! Here goes 01. What are your nicknames? Danthor, Beavis, usually just'that crazy guy' and most people here seem to know exactly who it is. 02. How do you style your hair? Pfft, too short to do anything with 03. What's new in your life right now? My computer works again, had a hell of a vacation, had a job interview that didn't go so hot. 04. How many colours are you wearing now?

Do you nap a lot? Napping is impossible for me. 08. If the person you secretly like is already taken, what would you do? Move on 09. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days? Just that interview. But if that's the worst thing I can gripe about right now, I've got it pretty good. 10. What's your favorite dessert? Lemon Pie. 11. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning? 10 minutes, tops. 12. What websites do you visit daily? Webcomics, FB, assorted Wikis 13. What classes are you taking right now? And if you're not in school any more, what's your job? Right now I stock in a grocery store, and take freelance as I can get it, while I fan out to find a real job. 14. Do you like to clean? I'm indifferent to it, actually. I only know it needs to be done, cause living in filth totally sucks. 15. What's the last song that got stuck in your head? War Machine by Kiss 16. What's the last movie you saw? Watched The Terminator for the umpteenth time (And it still kicks ass) just last night. 17. What's better: eternal love or memorable love?

Oppertunities (Comment on this)

1:22 am	Ahh sleep.. you and I used to get along swell. But now everything seems so.. backwards. Sleeping pills wake me up. I have an energy drink in the middle of the day whilst at work, then almost immediately all I want to do is go to bed. Mysterious.. yes. So here I sit, once more hoping the sleepies will strike me when I'm most unaware. And since I've not posted in ahwhile, blah. Like normal, everything is always a roller coaster. Everything is usually either just peachy, or numbingly stressful. Still no REAL job.. nothing seems to want to pan out. Though right now I'm finding it hard to be too upset at much, because I'm on the higher part of the roller coaster right now, having another rather large problem start to really work itself out. And on top of that, at the end of the week, I'm florida bound with the family! My folks wanted to go to disney land, and their xmas/graduating again/grats on teaching/late b-day present to me is bringing me along :D I'm sure to contrast this I'll come home to.. I dunno. The house blown up or something *laughs* And now since I'm still wide awake, my next act of theivery from Teriyaki 1. Put your iTunes (or any other media player you may have) on shuffle. 2.

9:21 pm	What a week. I finished everything, Passed in all my shit. I'm done school, that's it. Finito. The only time I go back now is to burn off more Demo Reels, OR teach more classes. Either way, no more due assignments! Huzzah! Well until I finally break into this goddamn industry, then it's given the name 'deadlines'.. but for some reason that sounds more appealing to me. The dept head and school head told me I was very much among the strongest reels, so for once I'm confident in my odds. To celebrate, I bought an SNK Arcade Collection for my Wii, and promptly got addicted as fuck to a soccer game of all things. Then also bought Mega Man 9.. cause.. well.. it's fucking old school Mega Man. That's all that needs to be said! And the fact that it's 2008.. and I just bought a brand new NES game.. well that just warms my heart. Current Mood: relieved (Comment on this)

11:35 pm	Boared...And not spelling right, either. I'm now sitting at less than 4 weeks to graduation, with any luck.

Though, that stone really wasn't looking at Alicia quite like that ;) Also drawing classmates, but I forget where I drew this one. And this is of my Roomates Cat, Luna.

1:57 pm	10:20 this morning I wake up to what I think is Rumble taking a bath. Only to find it's him struggling at the bottom of the cage. I help him out, he doesn't seem to even know how to use his feet to grip at all.. I just held him gently.. no goddamn idea what to even do.. then he started to vomit. a lot. Which I had never seen happen before. I held him gently frontways and scooped out as much as I could out as it came so he'd have a clear airway and wouldn't choke.. His heaving just kept getting weaker and weaker.. then he looked right at me and slowly went limp in my hands. My little guy is dead.. I buried him beside Bishop.. God I don't even know what to do anymore. Current Mood: crushed (1 Comment |Comment on this)
2:34 am	He looks even worse today.. Still no leads on what might be wrong, what I could do, or even setting an appointment with somewhere I can actually get to for him. I just watched him sleep.. then fall right to the bottom of the cage.. just like Bishop. I'm going to town tomorrow to get him some supplements, vitamins.. hell anything I don't even know.. It just wrenches me to look at him like this. That ever curious gleaming life that was always in his eyes isn't even there anymore.. he jsut looks so tired.. I just want to scream right now.. but I think I'm going to have to settle for crying. Current Mood: depressed (Comment on this)

9:55 pm	I love polar opposite days. I went to see Michale Graves last night, had a wonderful night. He even did a proper (non acoustic) Misfits set with the Rocking Argentos (Local band) And that made a sweeeeeet mosh pit. Smashed my lip up, it was great. And of course Graves' set afterwards was really really goood. Had a great time! Now today I get up, go to work. Have one lousy all day/night at work. Meh. Get back home. Get email from 3D instructor telling me I have to re-do my exams for both courses if I have any intention of passing. Fuck. Then, I get Text dumped, AGAIN! Fuck Sake!! And now I think Rumble is getting sick.. he hasn't said a peep in 3 days... I've emailed a few local bird experts asking for help/advice/references.. I pray he's not going to die on me..FUCK. Just.. Fuck I don't even know tonight. Current Mood: distressed (2 Comments |Comment on this)

2:07 pm	I'm cursed, or my toys are. My Starscream bust.. took an unscheduled descent today, breaking his left wing off. I was really mad, but I think I can fix it. I just gotta go grab a few things and paints to try and cover it up.. But it made me think about something interesting about my other Starscream toys. I once had a G1 Starscream, until my little cousin happened to him years ago. The only peice I found and kept was.. his left wing. Then, flash forward to more recent. I have the new Classics Starscream. I had him standing on a shelf when one day, he too, took an unscheduled descent to the floor, and guess what he broke. His left wing and nothing else! So either I'm being told something very strange, or it's as simple as every starscream I own is bound to lose its left wing at some point. Wierd.

1:20 am	The New York Groove Here's another long winded anecdote over the course of a week! You have been warned ;) I wanted to post about it after I got all the pics collected from mine and everyones cameras, but I figured, why wait. The ride up was once again...ugh. 22 hours in a bus.. that was getting more and more packed and..stinky. Sleep again an excercise in futility. But nothing died on me this time! My ipod was the only thing keeping me from snapping, I'm sure of it. In all fairness, at first it wasn't bad at all. First there was almost nobody on the bus, but by the time we hit boston onward... BLAAGH. Anyway, we hit NY at about 5:30 in the morning. Once we found our way out of the maze that is the bus terminal, it was an immediate feeling of total awe. So.. MANY fucking lights! and everything is so goddamn HUGE! We hoof it to the hotel, only to find Check in time is 11am. *insert colorful dialogue here* But we could at least check out luggage in, so it wasn't so bad. We started to roam the streets to see pretty much nothing but food places were open, of which there is no shortage. Mcdonalds is as frequent, at least doubly as frequently appearing as Tim Hortons in pretty much anywhere in NB. And The amount of Starbucks outnumbers even that by a hefty margin! They're also all open 24 hours, and have delivery. The very concept of a McD with delivery just made my brain crash. Or maybe that was the tired setting in again now being off the bus, and almost passing out while everyone else ate. Afterwards we went back to the hotel and they let us crash in the lobby till check in time. I crashed, burned and died in a matter of seconds. We woke again, checked in, checked out the room, sorted who was sleeping with who in the beds and who got the cot while we were staying. I ended up sharing a bed with Nad that week, at her insistence ;), to which I only thought 'nifty'. The 5 of us promptly took another nap. When we were finally in a NY going mood we hit Times Square, and did so several times in the week, and my fuggin god. If you can imagine it, it's in there somewhere. So many of the flashing billboards were not mere lights, but gigantic HD monitors playing short commercials. Gigantic movie banners everywhere. I saw one for the new Rambo that was 4 windows wide, and seven stories tall, and that was a CASUAL one. The Toys R Us there is positively fucking insane. It's 3 stories tall. Escalators.. a goddamn Ferris wheel, a life size T-Rex which was moving and snarling like something that belongs in Universal Studios or something. Life size Barbie dreamhouse castle thing that you can actually go inside. Those 2 things were just on the MIDDLE FLOOR. The videogames section was also dwarfing. I resisted my urges and bough only a new case for my DS games ;). We hit the Wax Musem, Madame Tussaud's(sp?). At first I thought 'I'm paying how much, to do WHAT?' Then I saw the wax statues.. and.. man. Almost scary well done. If I were drunk I woulda started to talk to all of them! You could even take pictures freely with them! I got pics with Oprah, James Brown, Johnny Cash, Ozzy, Patrick Stewart, LeAnn Rimes (I know I know.. ;) and the Burger King King. And the Hulk, which was fucking huge. Apparently it weighed like 2200 pounds or something. I wouldn't doubt it for a second! Then we found the Virgin Megastore. Which I would make repeated trips and purchases in. Again, many floors, many much everything. There was even a huge section of Vinyl Records there! I found old Misfits Vinyls!! Almost shit my pants.. but simply did not have the money to get any. I did get a new wallet for the first time in over a decade, though. It's NES Zelda themed, folds out to be a full map of Hyrule! Yes I'm a nerd. Found something delightfully insane called the 'Heavy Metal Fun Time Activity Book'. It's precisely what it says it is. There's Heavy Metal Sudoku, connect the dots on Dimebag Darrels Beard, colour Metallica (1984), Heavy metal ad-libs, the works. Had to get that. Also as is my tradition when travelling, I grabbed a new band shirt, this time a Kiss one. We discovered that NOBODY does pizza like NY. Sorry Montreal, but you just got served. Spaghetti and meatballs is a frickin TOPPING out there. I also tried roasted garlic penne pasta pizza, and broccoli chicken spicy pizza, and a few other wild ones. Each slice was like 5 pounds, but it was soooo very satifying.. so very awesome. We also happened accross this fucking awesome fuck yes of an arcade, if that makes sense. Old games, new games, wierd games.. Like this one where you kicked this soccer ball into something, and then you saw the ball onscreen try to go into a net past the goalie. But you actually had a ball to kick. It was kind of like Wii Sports, level 2. There was also a shooting range, a ping pong table, and a sweet boxing machine with much the same analogy. Tons of linked racing games, I even got to play Sanfransisco Rush in the arcade, which I haven't seen since they heydey of the N64. That was a blast! My roomate who is a Rush-a-holic was extremely jealous ;) The M&M building. Holy. Friggin. Shitclamp. The walls of the second and third floor all had large tubes not unlike coffee bean dispensers containing every colour you think you've ever known (I swear it'd give photoshop a run for its money) , only now in M&M form. You could custom make your own blend in a bag to buy. Another floor had more tubes but with various colours combined to make all these insane blends you've never even heard of before. Which you could also further combine to make something truly insane. There was a separate brick arch, which under it had wine bottles full of Central Park Green M&Ms. and if you could imagine a peice of merchandise that COULD be an M&M.. it is. I found PJ bottoms, pillows, shot glasses, chalices (no joke) aprons, shirts, sweaters, pillows, hoodies, toys of all manner, paints, sponges, and it just goes on. Then came the day the 4 girls I was traveling with went to go see the spice girls, so I was left to my own devices. What a strange adventure.. I decided to do some shopping, and promptly got lost. I found a few different kinds of Pigeons I'd never seen before! It made me happy. I nicknamed em as I saw em, but the 2 that stood out most were ones I called 'Dalmatian Pigeon', cause it was white and spotted black all over, and 'Chocolate Milk Pigeon' because it was the first thing that I magically craved when seeing its colours. It started deep brown at the head, and gradated to white by the time you got to the tail. I also managed to make a cop very upset with me, only credited to my own stupidity of course! I was looking for a Dunkin Donuts in an Ocean of starbucks, cause mom wanted me to bring back a bag of Dunkin D's coffee back. Sooo long passed with no luck.. so I decided to ask someone. So far the cops had been the most pleasant and helpful to us lost tourist folk when findin something we're looking for so I'd innocently asked. Not once did it even enter my head that essentially asking a NY cop where to find a Donut Stand could POSSIBLY be a bad idea. He thought I was being a jackass, so got in my face, and I scurried away like a motherfucker, apologizing on the run. I eventually found one in the Train terminal, which I can really only describe as earth's version of Mos Eisely. It's just that simple, no two ways about it. When I decided I'd had enough of the city on my own, I grabbed a bite, bought a gigantic can of beer to enjoy later and had one hell of a time finding my way back to the hotel. Found it, and then discovered the meaning of being relaxed. It's called huge deep hot bath, with a ginormous import beer that has a name you can't even try to pronounce. Ahhhhh... The next day, we all hit 5th avenue and saw the huge upscale shopping district. Trump Tower was there! That is frigging huge. The obnoxiously overpriced designer stores.. and this wicked wierd toy store. It had a life size baby dragon plushie, but it was a few thousand dollars. I also think you would need a van to get it home, cause there is no way it was fitting in any car I knew. There was also really a rather larger than I was shark plushie. I didn't like him much ;) It had this giant keyboard that you stepped on the keys, they lit up and made sound. Just like that one homer broke one episode of the simpsons. We took a tour of Central Park, and were completely taken by how simply.. beautiful it is. Definitely something you have to see in the flesh to really appreciate. We came back at night and it was even more breathtaking. It just never stops being awesome! Later that night Nadi and I left the rest of the group who wanted to go back to the hotel, to go grab a bite at the Planet Hollywood there. Her 1st time seeing one, and my 2nd time in one, but the last time I'd seen one was back in grade..8? So it felt like my first all over again. And this time, I could try the movie based drinks! We were surrounded by props, guns, dinosaurs, you name it. There were ships of all kinds flying around the top (the batwing chasing a Kingon cruiser for instance) If you've never seen one, think 'Jungle Jim's' but instead of all jungly and insane, it's all movie like insane.. We had a helluva time She tried a 'Legally Blonde, and I tried a drink called 'The Terminator' (I know, big surprise there, eh?). It was.. awesome. And lived up to the monicker. by the end of the meal, and only one Terminator, I felt DAMN good ;) A second would likely have left me ..Terminated ;) (sorry I couldn't resist) after I felt safe enough to walk publicly, We toured the city again ourselves, then rejoined everyone at the hotel...eventually ;) Our last day there we walked ALL of the area of Manhattan to see what we might have missed. Over 63 blocks. We walked ALL goddamn day, and it was sweet!! Near the ferry to Liberty Island, Yvonne got hosed by a tourist trap where someone dressed like statue of liberty posed with you for pictures, then suddenly asked for money. Now we call her 'Lady Liberty' and she hates it ;). In our final travels, we also took time out to visit Ground Zero. I wish I could, but I really can't describe it. At all. Surreal is the only word I can even think to muster. It's the only one that really works, too. And while waiting for the bus to take us away.. I went to take a poo in the bus terminal. While sitting there 2 people were yelling a lot of things back and forth about things somone said and them wanting to 'smack the fucking shit outta his ass'. Suddenly I heard a breath, followed by 'YOU! YOU GETTIN YOUR JUST DESSERTS NOW MOTHAFUCKA!!' followed immediately by sounds of crashing, swearing, throttling.. and here I am thinking 'That's it. This is the last dump I'm ever going to get to take.' it was kinda scary. I waited for everything to subside before I even poked my head out. Then, we finally.. sadly left. We missed it already, even as we started to drive away. We would get back another agonizing 22 hours later.. Round 11pm or so. I was SO dead tired. Did I go home? God no. Nad Yvonne and Mel all wanted to hit a nightclub, mostly cause they got to sleep on the bus and felt rested, where I didn't. So I went too! After showing up back home at around 3am.. then I promptly passed out dead. And so finally concluded, my New York Groove. I even got a sweet epilogue! I actually had all my schoolwork done well ahead of time before I left, so I had no stress at all to come back to. Rumble was happy to see me again, and I'd discovered I got another offer to teach more Flash animation at my school. . .. ... .... ..... And yes, many days afterwards, Nadi and I decided to get together ;) Current Mood: giddy Current Music: Helloween - Heavan Tells No Lies (Comment on this)

12:33 am	So Recently I remember feeling 'Back in the New York Groove' which only really, I meant to reference a Kiss song which always puts me in a great mood, and being thrilled to finally not be sick.. now if only I could sleep properly ;) But imagine my surprise when I rendomly get invited on a trip to go to New York. Coincidence? Prolly, but it's still neat. Same crew I hit montreal with. This is gonna be a very interesting adventure indeed. Current Mood: content Current Music: Kiss - Take Me (Comment on this)

1:46 am	I have not been able to sleep or fully knock out to unconciousness for 4 days now, despite my best efforts, and I am at a loss to why. I think it's starting to make me wierd. I lay there with my eyes shut for hours, tired as hell, but I'm awake. I toss I turn, then I just get aggravated and then just fully wake up again. Then I get tired again, and it repeats until there's too much daylight to sleep, Then I feel like poop for a great deal of the day, then eventually I level out. Then at night, it's the same goddamn cycle. At least Rumble sleeps soundly. I'm going to try this sleep thig again.. likely going to fail. Grumble grumble.. grr.

5:35 pm	I taught my Flash Animation lecture today! I can't say I've ever had an experience like that. It was a really exhausting 2 1/2 hours! It was.. well maybe a bit empowering I suppose. People had questions, I knew the answers. Something went wrong with somene's work, I knew why, and had a solution. Everyone actually intently listening to me just blab and draw.. neat! I got a lot of good feedback (And made an extra hundered bucks!), and a few students after class even came back to thank me for teaching what I did. I felt really.. hell I dunno, good! Then I went to the bathroom and realized true intelligence is realizing you've somehow gone the whole day with your boxers on both backwards AND inside out. ;) Current Mood: bouncy Current Music: Helloween - Kill It (Comment on this)

2:15 am	Had an experience today unlike any other. I bought a Transformer. More specifically a G1 Commemorative Soundwave. Lucky find in itself, but moreso for me, for this is a toy that despite it being one of my favorite old toys, I never had one of my own. Lots of friends did though. I always really wanted one as a kid, but just never got it. When I opened the box, I SWEAR I felt exactly like I was 6 years old again. Everything was absolutely identical. Even came with the old school sheet of stickers to put on, just like the old G1 Transformers did back in the day.. oh man was simply lucid with unadaultered glee! I even caught myself making kitty-kat/birdy noises with Laserbeak and Ravage (his cassette sidekicks) at one point. And of course transforming them again and again. It was kind of like my inner child or really younger self just completely escaped and.. I dunno. It was neat. I felt.. really.. really happy. I'm rambling. Clearly it's bedtime. Goddamn comforting Nostalgia ;) Current Mood: rejuvenated Current Music: The Misfits - This Island Earth (Comment on this)
