Hi, hi, hi guys.
Everyone keeps posting on their blogs and I feel awful because I am too busy to constantly keep you posted and nyuhk-nyuhk-nyuhk.
I should probably be telling you all about my life and such but right now I really don't want to. I just want to tell you about recent inspiros' and all that rot.
The other night Breanna and her cousin Jason and I hung out where we played with her lovely turtles and reminisced over old Pokemon episodes. I can only imagine how utterly lame that sounds, truly, but it was actually quite amusing remembering all the odd fascinations I had with the brightly colored garb and demeanor of the show to my budding four-year-old mind. Life was so simple back then, when my career path was only to be Ash Ke'chum and be a Pokemon master. Ah, a sign of the times, kiddies. A sign of the times.
So, after we ate grilled cheeses and sorts we decided to watch The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. Note: I had never seen this show, only heard of it and seen the stick figures of Flapjack that Baker drew for me in Algebra last year. Which I still have. On my inspiration board. Anyways, I was skeptical upon watching it, but soon realized that IT IS THE ABSOLUTE CREEPIEST WEIRDEST SHOW THAT I WOULD LIKE, NATURALLY. I love the quirky characters in it. They look like something I would draw. And the pointless plots plus the disgusting details make it gritty and gross and absolutely delightful. When I mean gritty and gross I mean like, 'haven't showered in three years' gritty and gross.
But seriously, the drrrraaaaawwwiiinnnnggg! It is beautiful how disgusting it is. I love the fact that they incorporate sort of a Trent Call vibe with little 1930's cartoon details. For example, notice how his eyes are slit and creep-ified with the tired lines underneath. It meshes and is monotone and lovely. AND the basis of the show revolves around CANDY! What isn't to love people?! {Not to mention he's just so darn cute.}

My other new love came after I got home. Apparently, Corn's bossman lent her some weird British comedy that he liked. I was also skeptical of this show, called "The I.T. Crowd". Corrin said she liked it when she watched the first few episodes, so I decided to trust her.

NEW.FAVORITE. SHOW. It is hilarious, and nerdy, and about Internet technicians, and MOSS. Moss is my favorite. I want to marry him. {Moss is the pixelated figure on the right} The show is filmed with one of those typical crappy Brit-coms cameras that makes it look crappy (you know) and well, British. {I can make fun of British things being made crappily because ironically they do it on the show. Adding to the hilarity, of course} Moss is the awkward comic relief. The typical nerd, I like his Marc Jacobs possibly CdG parted 'fro. Makes me chuckle.
Moss is the man on the left. Yup. That's the kind of man I would marry. Just one more, I promise, and my
fangirling will be over.
Okay, that's enough. I want to go watch more I.T. crowd now, Adieu dweebs. Er, whatever.
OH YEAH AND MY VARIANCE GOT ACCEPTED.
