My grandmother fell and hurt her hip, apparently. My mother has been down there watching her but she needs to come up again to work. Therefore, I've been hired by my mother to go down there and watch after grandma for "probably a few days". I'm probably leaving today since I just told mom I had to be here until after Friday so I could chillax with Mr. Bruce Campbell.

Of course, "probably a few days" doesn't mean a thing. Last time I went and stayed with Grandma after she slipped on the snow and hurt her foot I was there for I think a month and a half. Aunt Pat is supposed to "probably" come down after a few days pass, but if she doesn't (and she's not always reliable, she still acts like an 18yo even though she's 40+), then I'm stuck there for quite some time. Sure, I love my grandma and all that, that goes without saying. But after a month and a half I'd go insane without any video games or internet. In fact, I can go insanish after a few days without internet (video games I can go longer without).

This is mostly for Stephanie, actually, since I keep barely missing her online, and she doesn't have access to any other thing I post on. Although I'm sure she won't see this. So, seeya Steph. Hopefully sooner than later.

Well hey there. I guess this would be like, the first Blog, or something? I have no idea what the heck a blog is, even, really. I'll just assume it's a silly term for some total Livejournalage.

Well, you're here. I've no idea if you even know who I am, but chances are...you don't. Because everyone I know are bums. And will never read this. Because they're bums.

I'm an Alaskan. That's right. I come from the place no one knows about. IT IS A MYYYSTEERRYYYYYY!! Anyways, I'm apparently semi-well known (I've had people come up to me in cities I've never been in and say "Hello, you must be Thor!" to me and stuff -- It's weird). Of course, Alaska's the place you go if you enjoy irony and coincidence. We get it up here by the loads full.

I consider myself an amateur sprite artist. Sprites, if you don't know, are those little interactive non-background things you see in video games. At least, in 2D games. In 3D games, I don't believe they have them. All I know in 3D games are skins. My cousin's good at Skinning. That jerk. Anyways.

I'm also an amateur artist. And by amateur, I mean amateur. My art sucks. But it can be awesome. So I guess that makes up for it. I'm torn between posting my various doodles here (I have arthritis so mostly all of my art is in MSN Paint -- with a now-glitching mouse, too) and not posting them here. Wouldn't want them getting, you know. STOLEN or anything. Like someone'd steal them. My humor is usually quite dark and stupid. But I guess that's alright.

I'm an amateur musician, too. I can kinda play a lot of instruments, but I don't own or specialize in anything. Any music I make I currently make on my computer. And it’s pretty sad. It entertains me, though, so I guess it’s all good. I go by the name Black Jello until the day I get sued. I made up that name a long time ago, before I had any clue what a copyright was. It was originally a weird demon creature I drew, who was my favorite thing to draw at the time (other than eye people), and I told myself that’d be my band name if I ever came up with one. If I made a real band, though, I’d name it something else -- so long as I didn’t get sued for that name, too.

I’m a huge video game fan. My current life goals (yes, this is pretty nerdy, I admit) is to:

  1) Beat the Lovely Trinity: Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy Tactics, and Breath of Fire III. They were all in the same Gamepro magazine that got me really wanting to play that style of games. I’ve almost beaten FF7 and BoF3 -- but my saves got erased, and ever since I haven’t been able to bring myself to playing much of them. I got to that maze desert thing in 30 hours, though. Apparently that’s pretty good.

  2) Own every console known to man (including arcade systems), and at least one game for each console. I am definitely looking for a Spyhunter Arcade, but not just any -- I’m specifically looking for one that has a seat, much like the Cruisin’ USA and such racing games. I know they exist, I saw one in the Castle on O’Malley like 5 years ago. I also have to buy my mom a Defender Arcade.

Anyhow. My posts always seem to become longwinded on accident, so this is where I sign off, for now. Ciao bubs.
