mario kart wii has so far provided us w/many, many hours of entertainment since sunday.i'm really liking the wheel.

gimme an f! gimme a u!

i realize that this movie came out when i was 2 years old, but why haven't i heard of this movie sooner than tonight? gimme an "f" was just on the fox movie channel. all i read in the info was that it was a cheerleader movie and i was sold.

piss filled balloons, japanese businessmen, a shower dance scene, slow motion ass shots (of boys and girls), an awesome soundtrack, rad roscoe, and of course, spirit sticks. i feel very lucky that we got to see this movie.

meet the swans

finally put up a new page of the comic. we had some issues with trying to figure out the layout, but i think this page came out pretty well.

here are a couple more paintings tom did last week.

ewoks, ass chickens, and dehara

we're sooooooo close to finishing the next page of the comic. hold tight. is anyone even holding? anyway, this is what we've been doing.

tom drew this for my sister-in-law's birthday.


and i painted this for her.


drawn by tom, painted by me. i really don't want to kill ewoks. i only want to kill them while playing battlefront 2. i can NEVER beat them.


this is a painting we did for dehara. another one where tom drew it and i painted it. well, most of it anyway.


i drew this guy on the back.


this is the piece i bought from dehara's show. awesome, right?


he likes to have people take pictures with the pieces they bought. you can see his head in the background, peeking around.


there are a couple more paintings tom did but i haven't had the chance to scan them yet. yayy for creating stuff!

mr. elephant dance

my latest painting... oh shin chan, you're so charming!

la la painting

i did a bunch of paintings last week.


this one's called "haha, girls are stupid." tom named that one for me. you can see more of them here.

hi - listen to the the black lips and calla, black lips are better but i like calla more because you won't.

put up or shut up

if you've never seen an uwe boll movie, please go add his movies to your netflix queue. start with bloodrayne.

i remember when we first started watching his movies, we rented a bunch at the same time because they were so awful and after a while i just couldn't do it anymore. i couldn't take it!! (it's better in small doses.)

but, anyway, i like what he says in this video.

grillin'

today, tom's idea for lunch was to barbeque! i was more than willing to just microwave the veggie hot dogs. i was soo hungry and cranky. but the wait was worth it.


one of the asparaguses? asparagi? fell and i gave it to louie. he was taking it away and dropped it. and then all of a sudden he tried to attack it. awwww. dogs are so dumb.


but, he finally ate it. he also ate some onions and red peppers. he didn't like the red peppers as much.


i had 3 veggie dogs and tom had 5. i don't think we'll have dinner tonight. yeah, right, i'm already hungry again. that's half tea/half lemonade we're drinking. mmmm.

it's like harvest moon!

tom started to garden a couple weeks ago. i've helped a little bit, but he's been taking care of it all every day. farmer tom!


cilantro



squash



cucumbers (pretty sure, but it could be watermelons. i guess we'll find out later!)



arugula!



our little greenhouses. inside are carrots, cucumbers, garden beans, tomatoes, peppers... i don't remember what else.


we, also, planted mint, basil, watermelons, salad greens, etc. the arugula is growing like a mofo. bugs keep eating some of the leaves, but tom's mom suggested soaking some tobacco in water and pouring some over the plants.

man, plants are so weird. fascinating!

eggrolls and chips

tom had the sudden urge to make dumplings today. tom noticed that i wasn't as excited as he hoped i would be. they just take way too long to make. we had to go to the market anyway, so when we were there i told him we should make dumplings. he was all, "noo, they take too long to make." sigh. i convinced him that i really wanted to eat dumplings but then when he picked up the wonton wrappers, i saw right next to them were wrappers for eggrolls.

i exclaimed, "let's make eggrolls instead!!"

we never made them before but there was a recipe inside. it's actually easier to make than dumplings since the wrappers are much bigger. we were still worried but they came out so delicious! see?



here's the recipe we sort of followed since i'm too lazy to write it out...


we used tofu instead of meat since tom doesn't eat dead animals.

and since we had the pot full of bubbling vegetable oil, tom decided to make potato chips, too!


mmmm, fried heaven!

chillin'

we've been watching a really horrible korean soap opera lately. it's called the infamous chill sisters, or famous princesses, or seven princesses. none of the characters make any sense, they lie constantly, are completely unlikeable... they're either crying or screaming at each other. i seriously don't know how these actors keep doing it.

the story is based around these 4 sisters. the oldest is cheating on her horrible husband w/his best friend. there's the twin sisters (one of them is actually adopted but she doesn't know it) who are the complete opposites. one's in the army and is a goodygoody, the other is a slut&liar because the father completely favors the "good" one. and the youngest gets pregnant by her boyfriend who doesn't want to get married. he blames his mother (who, omg don't even get me STARTED on her), but really he doesn't want to get married because he feels he's too young and handsome to get married to anyone yet.

god, there's way more to this story that i wish i could write out. i mean, i could, but it wouldn't make any sense at all. we haven't even seen all of the episodes. we saw the first one and then didn't watch it for 2 weeks and we just started watching it again recently. it's on at midnight! monday-friday! for an hour w/no commercials. that's another reason why i hate this show... it keeps me up at night because even though i hate all of the characters except maybe the grandmother, it's completely entertaining. and every episode ends w/an unneccessary cliff hanger.

someones always saying they want to kill themselves. the mom has told her youngest that they should just kill themselves because she got pregnant and they couldn't convince the boys mom that they should get married. and then in last night's episode, the mom visited her oldest daughter and saw that she was crying. the daughter told her that her husband wants a divorce. the mom tried to convince him against that idea. she told him to beat her, kill her, she won't bat an eyelash! but please please don't divorce her! and then she went off about how he's cheated on her several times and she's always forgiven him and that he should do the same for her. i mean, what the hell?? AND THEN! she starts slapping her daughter and they're both bawling on the ground and the mom's yelling "how could you do this to your children??"

confused yet? sorry. i'm really sorry.
