bored

Slept in. It was lovely. Ma and Pa were gone when I got up, and were only back for a little bit before heading off to a party. I kept the fire stoked. I raked the leaves. I put Holly out. Let her in. Watched Would I Lie To You. Drew four portraits. Got them queued up. Huzzah!

Ate junk food. Ate real food.

Tomorrow I'll have a bit of an adventure. So that will be nice.

My James Tiptree Jr. book arrived! Whee.

Rather lack luster Friday.

getting up early, what?

Set my alarm for 7 something, and got up at 9 something! Go me!

Went to Mats Mats with the parents and spent some time with Grandma and Grandpa. And by "spent some time" I mean I napped on the couch because I got up at 9am, instead of my usual noon. Watched some westerns and ate half a sandwich. It was nice to get out of the house and do something different.

Spent most of the day in a tired haze, because I am trying to reset my body block.

Watched Community with ma. Wasted time on the internet. My Friday plans got switched to Saturday. I'll do some house chores instead. Yup yup.

beauty rest

Sooo hard to get up. Ended up not going out to do stuff with Marcus and Rufus. Went into town with Ma around 3ish and made a tag for Holly's collar, and then picked up dad from the airporter. Ma dropped us off and then she went to meet her friend for a spa day. Dad and I went out for an early dinner at the Camp Union Saloon. The burger I ordered was quite good. Dad suggested that I use a knife and fork to eat it, I responded, "what, am I British?" to that suggestion. Utensils are for chumps. It was a good meal. No steak on the menu though. Boo.

The fire was stoked, Dad responded to some emails and went to sleep. I'm going to try to get to bed early tonight. Spending more daytime in bed and more night time awake.

time flies when you are sitting and not looking out the window

Slept in even more. Bad, bad Trillian. It doesn't take much. Had some oatmeal and tea. Showered.

Ma and I originally planned to go to the movies after Mom ran her errands, but when she got back from errands, that idea was nixed. So I worked on portraits and watched telly. Glee was good. Raising Hope was awesome. We watched a bit of Tommy and Tuppence. Ma went to bed at 10:30. I am going to bed at 5am. I really don't know how that happened. Just started watching and drawing and WHOOPS look at the hour, eh? But I like these portraits. Returning to color, albeit monochromatic color. Enough with the gray washes. Oh and also doing pencil sketches. Gotta change up the style to keep things fresh. I'm also revisiting past portraits, to example how I've changed and grown and all that. So when I have time, there will be revisited portraits. Yup.

I might get out of the house tomorrow, but no promises.

zzz, already?

For a second I thought today was a do nothing day, and then I remembered my final! Ha. Feels like a do nothing day when I sleep in. Got up at around noon. Showered. Had some toast and orange juice.

Went off to class. Listened to the last program of Museum of Curiosity. Neil Gaiman was on it! Have to listen to it again with mom.

In class, we had our final exam and it was tricky. On the last two, I only missed a couple, on this one I missed 12...so not so good. But it wasn't 12 out of 13. There were many questions. Anyway. Done is done.

Talked to the art director for this project I'm working on. It is looking really exciting now! Huzzah.

Then relaxed. Ma wasn't home, so I just chilled and ate cheese and apples and stoked the fire.

When ma came home, we watched some Downton Abbey. I fell asleep during the next episode, don't know why though. Random nap?

Today is a double portrait! Whee!

Today's Portraits Are: Greg Davies & Chris Addison.

three deeee

Slept waaay in. Scanned and put the portrait in the queue. Went downstairs and had tea and breakfast and did my internet thing on mom's computer. We decided to go see Hugo Cabret in the afternoon.

That was a lovely, beautiful movie. The 3D really did bring it to this whole 'nother level of image fidelity. Ma said it was just as good the second time around. Really nicely done film. A bit long but very good.

Afterwards we swung by Home Depot and Trader Joe's for goodies. And we got tons of goodies! Yum!

Back at home I worked some more on a deadline and ate a salad and watched stuff. Tomorrow I have my Film Directing final. Just a wee exam and then I am FREE FOR THE HOLIDAYS! Woop woop.

My skin is all icky. Boo. No fun.

late and drawing

Gaah. It is late, and I'm trying to do a portrait, but it is a challenging one. I think I'm satisfied with it though.

Slept in. Uploaded a portrait. Ate a breakfast that dad made more me. Bacon and eggs! Then we went and got a tree. Ma didn't get the tree that she wanted, but we got a nice one. One of the biggest yet, even though ma wanted to go small. We listened to Museum of Curiosity while putting on ornaments and tinsel. We watched X Men First Class after dinner.

Dad is off to work for a few weeks. Boo.
