• Edumacated

    Guess who’s going to a four year college? I am. Guess who’s going to CCA to get her BFA in painting/drawing? I am. I didn’t think I’d have such a strong emotional reaction. This is crazy! I got in. I worked really hard at my goal and I did it. Now, to find the money.

  • bloggy stats and purpose

    I checked my web stats yesterday. A couple years back, I went from about 225 unique visitors a day to somewhere in the 300s. Last year I jumped to about 600, the start of this year I was looking at 800. Somewhere between January and March or 2006, my stats have jumped to 1,400 unique…

  • Happy Girl

    Who’s a happy girl? Me! I am! Today I finished my two hardest midterms. And you know what? That astronomy test? I aced it. Maybe I got a couple things wrong. We were allowed a single sheet of paper for formulas, constants, conversions, laws and whatnot. I made a fantastic cheet sheet and it helped…

  • Sending the kids off to college

    I got my machine series paintings back from the Studio Gallery on Tuesday. I felt a little deflated. I sold two out of the five, a great percentage, but still I was sorta sad that I didn’t find them all good homes. Then yesterday I got an email from ArtWorkSF asking me to drop off…

    International stylings of ccsf cafe Originally uploaded by angrypirate. Wow, check out them digs! Tres chouette! I’m having a bite at the ccsf cafeteria before my evening class. I’ve been pulling my hair out all afternoon over this astronomy stuff. Studying for science is just a totally different ball of wax compared to other subjects.…

  • expensive feet

    Now that I’m a grown up, my life is so much less complicated in some aspects and so much more complicated in others. For instance, home life? So much less complicated. thanks be to the high and mighty powers that run the universe. When I was a teenager? Very bad homelife, I would cry and…

  • My inner mouse

    I had a dream on Saturday night, a very strange dream. I was going into this company for an interview. They were going to let me work there as an intern while I went to school. I got to the interview without realizing that I had brought my pet mouse with me. I was very…

  • astronomy is hard

    I went and saw my astronomy teacher today. I got a D on my first homework and I don’t think I did well on the first quiz last week. I’m not a D student. I just can’t seem to get the concepts to stick together. Everything just flutters around my cavernous skull like a lot…

  • doodles

    Yesterday I spent all fricken day creating elements for a website design I’m working on. I’m not going to get paid squat but I’m a bit obsessed over the ideas and it’s sparking me to do things I’ve wanted to do for a long time but never get around to. Isn’t it kinda sad that…

  • Nada Surf at the Fillmore

    Thursday night we saw Nada Surf, Rogue Wave, and Inara George at the Fillmore. Nada Surf was excellent as usual. We missed the third encore and I missed them doing Meow Meow Lullaby which makes me want to cry a little, but only a little because I got to see them do it last time…

    Tonight: pork chops and Nada Surf, what a fantastic combination. Today: slooooowly writing my latest article for Webmonkey while nashing on chocolate covered espresso beans. I am having trouble focusing. Tomorrow: Friday! Wee! School, and a meeting to discuss a possible fun website project. Remember when I said I was only allowed to do school,…

  • Here’s your change, sir

    Look at the terrible torture device they gave Tom to wear. It’s kinda like head gear for your arm. It cranks his arm up and rotates it for him. He’s supposed to wear it an hour or two every night. It’s suppose to help get mobility back in his arm. Right now he can’t rotate…
