Especially when I get cute couples as customers.
Hits me kinda hard.
I'm a cool headed guy, and I'm pretty content, but a bit of irrational envy does leak out a bit.
Eh. I get over it as soon as all the lovey-dovey crap is gone though.
I guess we all secretly want a little bit of that valentine magic eh? XD
EDIT:
In other news, I managed to hook up my Keytar to FamiTracker (a Famicon/Nes tracker program), and was messing around with it a bit.
Hey if I can get it to work, I'd love to one day, be able to create a Retro soundtrack for a Retro-styled game!
(Though, I'd need to improve my musical skills MASSIVELY by then though. Man, I just suck when it comes to theory and that. I'm just a little better just giving me something to play around with. I should get round to re-learning how to write music properly, so then at least I can write down my musings)
It took me a few moments to realize what you were talking about, Retro. I guess this just shows how much I think about such things. Really, the only time I remember that Valentine's Day exists is when I have a gig for the day. And I'm pretty sure I don't have to sing one this year.
OK, Tope, now's your chance to come up with something impressive, something in the vein of:
When I saw him aiming his arrow for my knee, I realized immediately how crippling that would be in my line of work! I sprung into action, and using my Ahai-Oh-Khartesh-Ify move, struck the arrow mid-flight, diverting it harmlessly into a passing moleman. Ay, but I shall carry this scar to remind me of the tragic events of that day always!
Seriously, hope it gets better soon!
I was opening a bag of lettuce. Usually when we do it in the kitchen, we'd hold it up and take a flat edged spatula and strike it, and it'd make a clean incision to open it.
well
i used my chef's knife
and
well
missed
it felt really bad when it happened, but i applied instant pressure. when i took pressure out it surprised me as it started gushing like a fountain. holy cow hand, why do you got to have that much blood?

I'm afraid my imagination has gotten away with me. I'm getting phantom pains in my hand just thinking about it. I hope it heals so I can stop imagining blood fountains.
Finally calling it a night. Was illustrating the interior of a Knossus styled temple in the forests outside he starter town. Will ink it tomorrow then send it to colorization.
I actually made an audible hiss the other day when I served this kid and his mom.
So it was all going nicely. She was buying him Skylanders, and I was like "oh cool. Skylanders is pretty popular, but kinda easy", and she's like "oh do you play videogames too?", and I said, "oh yeah. Saying I play videogames would be an understatement. I got thousands of them. I'm a real enthusiast", then she says that her kids a gamer too.
Then she asks me my favourite game, and I replied that I don't really have a favourite, then she goes "hey (name) what is your favourite game on the xbox?".
The Kid said "Modern Warfare 3".
... YEAH. It was kinda overboard gesturing a cross and hissing at the lad, but it was pretty funny! XD
But the kid pretty much proves that only kids and immature man-childs ever play those games...
EDIT: Actually it wasn't Skylanders (that was another customer), it was points. 2100
And I remember saying that the points system was changing to cash, but it was just a cosmetic change only.
Actually after I reacted to MW3, the mother asked:
I don't have any room for a garden. I have a bamboo plant in a pot and that is it. And it's dying.
I'm such a horrible plant-mom. I gave it water but that seemed to make it die faster.
Well, you should also give it some light. I've heard that plants need light to make their photos and thesis or how it is called ...
Joking aside, you should check if the roots are OK. Sometimes the roots tend to rot if they don't get enough oxygen. In this case: cut away anything that looks slimy and brown. Check if the plant has developed a proper rhizome. If not, the plant may have decided to die anyway.
What is the real deal with Mr. Burns' assistant Smithers? You know what I'm talking about.
As you can see, the real deal with Waylon Smithers is that he's Mr. Burns' assistant. He's in his early forties, is unmarried, and currently resides in Springfield. Thanks for writing!

I think I'll make Comrade Mortis fix it. She's good with plants.

I hate this time of year...
Well. Its stings me a bit.

You must've hit an artery. Glad you got it under control, and hope it heals soon!
O_O Wow.
...by the looks of it, he may have caught the end of the radial artery. Perpendicular cut. Good thing the knife wasn't going the other way.

Its on channel 4 now and I had to do the Smithers gag.

Tired enough to want a sleep and have a headache, but not able to actually go to sleep.
I really want ice cream but I can't find my wallet...
Oh. I just feel like crap. Total downer day.
Already have! XD

She knows more about plants than anyone I know. Especially when it comes to resuscitating them.
Pick 1
Pick 2
Pick 3 (alt vid)
Last year I did this song:
[Original]
[My version]
Which song of the three above should I do this year?
She told me how to bring my peace lily, Leon: the Professional, back to life. She's a fucking plant wizard, insofar as I can tell.
Psh. She's hotter than Poison Ivy, brohan, but that might be an awesome DragonCon costume idea. I shall have to suggest it.
Stereotyping doesn't suit you.
Happy Werewolf Day, everyone!
