Slowly Warming Up For Junior Year

Carrie, my old roomate. I doodled this during my vacation when I was staying with her and her family. She was talking throughout most of the process, and I should let the public know this is a horrible representation of a very nice, basically sane, girl.

Somehow the idea of "Sexy Barista" came about, and this was the initial sketch. It's progressed, and it's taken on my form. Don't let Benjamin say I never did anything for him. Once "Sexy Barista, The Sequel" forms up a bit more, I'll post working stages. Right now it's not much more than a sketch.

I Put Another Hole In My Body

The first one is a bit blurry, but you're able to see the bottom end of it. Also, proof that I clean my ears. (It's about one month old now.)

Ben's Package (har har)

When bored, I suggest sending out care packages. They may or may not consist of A. letters, B. official SPAM from the SPAM Museum in Minnesota, C. home-baked goods, and D. porn.

My Spots

1. Hattiesburg, Mississippi
A giant rocking chair! Unfortunately, it was taken down after the Country Rocker furniture store was demolished in Katrina.

2. Clarksville, Tennessee
A 19th century tobacco port. Well, it was in the south.

3. Chattanooga, Tennessee
A wooden sculpture outside of the Tennessee Aquarium- I love how it looks like it's trying to crawl away.

4. Tulsa, Oklahoma
The Golden Driller Statue, the largest free standing statue in the world at 76 feet tall 43,500 pounds- another lovely roadside attraction!

5. Jackson, Mississippi
Jackson, Mississippi by William Eggleston. I want to BE her. Couch and all. I've been to Jackson before, it was nice. Much like everything else in Mississippi, but I think I'd prefer something less prone to hurricanes.

417 Minutes of Awesomeness

I've had the mini-series that came out in 2000 on tape for ever, but I finally got around to purchasing it on DVD. Best mini-series EVER. The book isn't half bad, either.
