I got this in an e-mail, and I thought mindsay would enjoy it.

:[ On another note, I think my boss hates me because I watch Jim Gaffigan skits with my other co-workers during work.

Blog #199
Artwork & Farmville


I stayed awake last night until 4AM.
I'd found new inspiration on DeviantArt and I was gathering as many source pictures as I could.
Before I turned my PC off, I'd made a new folder and filled it with over 200 different pixel art base dolls.

I think they're weird, but very helpful.
They're basically naked, bald and featureless manga-esque people, designed to be altered by other users.
I don't do pixel art, but they're good reference material for when one is wondering how to draw a certain position.

I've gotten a few ideas for individual drawings, along with some simple panel comics too.

So this morning, I opened up one of my reference pictures, five people standing in a group, holding a banner - and I drew my own version.

I turned them into The Sparrows (or Team Sparrow, I can't decide on what to call them) from DATWBSVOH, the protagonist wheelchair basketball team.



[DeviantArt link...]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I sent it to Reiss, and had an urge to draw his character.
So he sent me a photo to use as a reference, and I drew his character, who might I add - actually looks quite a lot like Reiss. (Which surprised me.)



[DeviantArt link...]

And some randomer added it to their favourites like A SECOND after it'd been uploaded.
It must've caught their eye on the recent updates page.

Reiss liked it too, which I was glad of. :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I spoke to Reiss for a little while and ate a bowl of chicken soup with four slices of bread.
Finally, mam's bought a loaf of my favourite bread - Warbuton's medium. I've ate shitloads of it.

Reiss sent me a YouTube link to a random fucking video called "One Day I Went To Lidl" - and it's a weird song, sung by an African bloke with a weird accent. It's about shoplifting and immigration.
Reiss is just obsessed with Lidl recently.

I had to piss at the: "One day I went to ASDA, I went to shoplift in ASDA..." part.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I spent a few hours playing Sonic Adventure 2: Battle.
Adam got me interested in it again yesterday.

I did a few lost Chao missions, having to use the guide for a few of them.
I feel so accomplished when I get an A ranking the first time, without even going for one.
All five missions on White Jungle - for instance. A rank every time, without even aiming to get one.

And I finished off the Last Story mode and then did the following boss attack.
The Biolizard is a pile of piss when you know what you're doing.

I'm on about 87 emblems at the moment.
I need to get back to where I was on my old save - which was around 115...
I also had A ranks on all of Eggman's levels, so I'll have to do those again.
Not difficult like, Eggman is the easiest character to complete.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Farmville!
I'm level 21 now, and I decided to annoy Shelly and buy a barn.
Shelly was saying she was going to get one, "and I better not get one first".

Then I went a bit overboard on the market and bought a ton of pointless decorations like hay bales, butter churns and wheelbarrows.
You get EXP points for them though, so it's not a total waste.

300 EXP points for the barn alone!

I took a screenshot of this very sexy corner where my barn is:



And here's my STUPID AMOUNT OF COWS:
I don't want to sell any of them though. :(



Shelly says for every 100 EXP points I overtake her, she'll spank me once.
So I wanna get ahead of her! :D
Tee hee hee... Yeah, kinky mood.

Shelly and I have been in a mint mood compared to last night.
She's been going from the kinky extreme to the musy love extreme.
At least she's giving more than one word answers on MSN. That annoys me, because when I really want to talk to her, she'll only give me "OK".

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My next blog is blog #200...
I was pondering over what I should do for it.

Blog #200 has to be SOMETHING, though.
 
 
 

   
[Blog #170] --- Neutral --- [Sunday] - POPURI'S PREGNANT!

Blog #170
POPURI'S PREGNANT!


Typical to my usual schedule - I've spent my Sunday at nana's: playing Harvest Moon, drinking endless quantities of blackcurrant juice and eating Mars cake bars.
Today's Sunday lunch was comprised of chicken - which made a change to beef. Nana used what was left to make sandwiches for tea. I fucking love cold cooked chicken, it's amazing. :D

I'm on a streak with my farm - I've gone from 61% to 70% - I've been spending all my money buying cows and sheep - and then proceeding to give them weird fucking names.
I've called one of my cows BUBBLES for fuck's sake. :)

I'm also growing massive quantities of vegetables and earning masses of money. I've finally worked out some decent strategies for this. I've also decided to get the Harvest Sprites in on the action - they can brush my animals. If I'm going to end up with 20 of them - I REALLY won't be fucking arsed to brush all of them.
I still have to go around and talk to them all though. And it helps if I milk the cows before they do. The stupid twats don't even use the cheese maker - so they're losing me vital money, damn it!

And I'll have to tell them to sod off in Autumn - either that, or leave my best sheep outside. I want to enter her in the sheep festival - and no sheep shall ever escape the vile clutches of the CLIPPING SHEARS.

And in other news - Shelly, my first cow has won the Cow Festival.
GOLDEN MILK FOR ALL!

But the thing that amused me the most was Popuri discovering SHE WAS PREGNANT.
I pissed myself when the dialogue box popped up.
Now I'm going to have to think of a name for the spawn.
Tee hee, just imagine the perecentage I'm going to get for having him. :)

It's a bit strange though - my character's name is Dixie, and my wife is Popuri.
I couldn't even combine the names, because I then end up with names like PIXIE AND POPPIE.

PMSL...

I'm pondering with names like Vito, Dean, Ashley - etc etc.
(Don't ask how the fuck those three names relate - I just seem to think they'd all fit nicely.)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm so fucking distracted at the moment - I have old blogs to update and coursework to finish, but all I want to do is sit here on YouTube and watch episodes of Fillmore!
I was thinking about it, for some reason - doubted that any episodes would be available on YT, and I only went and found A SHITLOAD. :)
 
 
   
 

Bovine babysitter
Have you ever been driving down the road and seen an old cow surrounded by calves while all the other cows are off grazing? Well, that  bovine beauty is a "calf sitter". Yep, she keeps an eye on the little scamps while the mommies take a break and munch without interruption. Such an odd but dear practice in the animal kingdom.
I love cows. They're so docile and trusting.They eat, sleep, rear young and never complain or ask for anything.You see a little rough and tumble between calves, but generally they are peaceful and kind.

Well geese , now they're a whole different ballgame.They are easy to agitate and very vocal about it. They chase you down and bite your butt in a heartbeat. They even get annoyed with each other frequently.Their quite demanding and though they flock " together" I think it's all about safety. They take care of their babies and waddle around squawking all day till they get tired. Then then tuck their head under their wing and sleep until they're rested then they wake up and start all over again!

Turkeys, well they're just stupid. Range turkeys are pissed off at the world and turkeys raised in houses are clueless. They like to grab your shoelaces because they think they have found a "white worm" that must be eaten. They live to eat.....and to freak out. They'll spook in a heart beat and crowd to the end of the turkey house until they suffocate one another.I think it's living in those unnatural houses that makes them so nuts. They never seem to learn anything!
Wild turkeys are beautiful and  majestic. In fact the turkey was almost our national bird instead of the eagle.

Now dogs, they're much like humans.They vary in their personalities. Some are sweet and gentle, trusting and loyal. You can let them out in the yard and find them laying under a tree a few hours later. They want to curl up in your lap or by your side because their favorite place is with you.
But, others are angry, always looking for a fight.Let them out and they're gone with the wind.They keep to themselves and don't care if you ever show them any affection.
Dogs seem to display every emotion we have. Love, hate, pride, envy, jealousy,anger.
I can't imagine a world without dogs.

Now pigs....pigs suck.

I'm a goose. What are you?
 
 
 

   
Man Cow

Researchers in the UK are applying for permission to start mixing human and cow DNA for stem cell research.
This is gonna be so awesome!
I can't wait until the cow people rise up in rebellion against the mad scientists who gave them life
