Holy cow, this week was Epic Bad.
Fuckup with medication.
Fuckup in paging doctor, thanks, hospital.
Fucked up guts. From meds? Anxiety? Funky brisket at Tuesday's National Night Out? Unclear, except that I have had to spend a lot of time in bed, hanging on with both hands, and willing food to stay down.

I'd have been more successful on Thursday were it not for turning to Food Network following Total Drama Island. On was Iron Chef America, Challenge Sturgeon. All the dishes being plated were squares of sturgeon with shiny, gelatinous things on top. Off I went to the sink.
Now I'm all sore from shoulders to waist, because when I throw up, I do not fuck around. It isn't barfing unless it involves muscle strain. Now even sneezing is an adventure.

Finishing Can I Sit With You cover this weekend (GO, FIGHTING PLATIPI!), then on to the character bible for The Moon is Mine.

Oct. 10th, 2008 @ 09:26 pm 24HCBD part 2
Jeg har siddet de sidste par timer, mens alle I andre har set vild med dans og Talent 2008, og prøvet at lægge en strategi til 24HCBD. Jeg prøvede at tegne et par sider på tid, og det overraskede mig hvor svært det faktisk er at lave noget ordenligt på under en time, og jeg regner med at skulle bruge 40-50 minutter per side, for at have noget tid at løbe på.
Det hele kommer an på at finde en balance mellem hvor lidt man behøver skitse op, og hvor meget man kan regne med man kan rentegne, uden blyant. Jeg er glad for jeg testede det inden den 18. for jeg har meget at lære, hvis jeg skal holde planen. Alene det at vende mig selv FRA at tegne for detajleret anatomi, er en uoverkommelig opgave. Det er som om jeg skal opfinde en hel ny tegnestil for at klare mig.

The Mob Hit by J-Teezy.
My new desk top, click for full view.




I had an incident happen on a bus and I want to mention it because it seems there was a lot to be learned by it. If you don’t know, I happen to live in San Francisco (see the rules of my journal).

So I was riding a busy bus on a warm afternoon and a cluster of young boys came on in blue sport outfits, ages about 8-13 years old. A boy in the youngest category sat next to me, a very cute child actually. The group spoke plainly at first and then the conversation drifted to girls. Things like how one girl wasn’t that pretty but her sister was and he was trying to get to know one through the other, how another was even hotter or this one had a nice butt. I was disappointed that no mention of personality, talent, or reflection on females as people was being stated but nothing was truly vulgar and decided to tolerate it in the name of “male bonding”. Since I'm also fully aware that women can be equally shallow or motivated by lust. And really, overall, they weren't bad kids compared to a lot I've seen.

However, it is a bus, not a locker-room or a bar, others can HEAR you. I’ve noticed people are usually shockingly rude and stupid about this obvious fact. I tend to let it go because we all have those days and it can feel awkward that it’s technically none of your business even if you’re being forced to listen (by person or cell phone). Maybe I’m getting old though because this sort of total disregard for others is really starting to irritate me and I’m feeling like I am entitled to my voice. My other irritation is that I find that people who think they are “wild” or “rebellious” NEVER open their mouths and exhibit said anti-social behavior when it might actually do some bloody good. No, I seem to get stuck with that responsibility and hence my life-long habit of getting into trouble when trouble wasn’t really what I was going for. Respect was.

So anyway. The little boy next to me picks up a magazine and sees gay people, an advertisement, one of many in a publication that’s about the city in general. He flashes this to his girl-chatting chums and states, snickering, “Hey, this is you.” “Is this what you want to be?” “Hey, look. Look!” “Do you like this?”

That was enough.

Did I mention that the little boys were all African-American? Uh, no, I didn’t.

I yanked the magazine out of his tiny hands and said (not yelled), “Knock it off. Quit acting ignorant. You live in a city full of all different kinds of people. You don’t have to like it, but you wouldn't like it if someone said something like that about you.”

He stayed silent for the rest of the trip and looked sincerely dog-eared.

His friends proceeded to state vague taunts like, “Hey, I’ve got something to put in your closet. Get it?”

I let it go. I resisted responding about racism and how one might answer something about pointy white hats for his “closet”. I’d made my point. That very bus was filled with people of all sorts of colors, ages, sexualities and backgrounds. Any of the boys may even be or grow up to be queer themself. No one else said anything, although a single woman made deliberate approving eye contact in my direction.

Did one voice make a difference? I don’t know. I can’t. Time and life will tell. But I decided it was worth the chance even at the risk of utter ridicule or an ass kicking because someone has to try or we really won’t progress one damn step.

So, after alot of angst and feelings of helplesness, I gave up and called my parents. Mom said that of course they'd pay the money and then we could figure it out afterwards. I could hear dad in the background, he sounded a bit stressed, and very angry.
I can't help but feel bad for asking them for help. They already helped me with bills last month, and 15.000,- is such a huge amount!
Karina will call Frode who has to pay a 3rd of the amount, and then Karina will get some cash and pay my parents as well, and even though mom and dad probably won't let me, I'll contact my bank and ask to borrow 5000 so I can at least pay them that.
Mom and dad are also visiting us on sunday, to sit down with us and look through the bills and such, and figure out what the hell went wrong.

We'll also call Forbrugerklagenævnet and file a complaint. And Karina knows of this service which provides free attorney counceling, so we can figure out if we have enough material to build up a case.

Blah... it sucks! And I'm dreading sunday a little bit, just because I feel bad that I had to rely on mom and dad, who lost money when Roskilde Bank went under.

Oh, and I have to mention that Frost, being a real hero, was ready to lend us money to pay the bill, had we needed it.

Oct. 9th, 2008 @ 11:20 pm 85 sider
så nåede Gigolo Hitman op på 85 sider og jeg er nået lidt over halvdelen. dette er også grunden til at sidste del af De Syv Indianeres Dødedans aldrig kom, jeg blev simpelthen alt for opslugt af min bog.
desværre er den pt i større konkurrence med min bachelor, så går nok lidt inden jeg kommer et så stort stykke på den igen, men regner stadig med at have den færdig i januar. syv, ni, tretten.
hele turen hen til de 85 sider har taget omtrent tre måneder, så har jo også været en hurtig omgang - utroligt hvad man kan når bare man laver en rutine ud af det.
selve historien virker også stadig helstøbt i mit hoved, den er ikke blevet vagere eller for kompakt, men virker til gengæld til at være i det rigtige tempo. alt i alt er det en fantastisk god oplevelse jeg har med den her bog, så fantastisk.
måske der alligevel er en forfatter gemt i mig, et sted dernede i dybet?

Dear Mr. Neil Gaiman,

You bring out the Veruca Salt in me, but I forgive you because:

1. You read so beautifully, slightly better than my mother (huge compliment)
2. You graciously took my question card from my hand after organizers forgot to collect it
3. And...read it aloud on stage *blush!*
4. We share a favorite tale from childhood in common (though it is not for children)
5. By some fickle of fate, I was privileged to sit in the front row
6. The exclusive previews of Coraline
7. Oh right and because you're a pretty awesome individual in general (who totally needs to cosplay as Professor Snape).

My sincere thanks to all the people who made this entire event possible, including Brady.

There was the initial humor of an employee who got quite excited that Neil Diamond was attending, until I clarified the actual name of the guest of honor. That's OK, I like Mr. Diamond too.

It was a mild, summer-like day that made waiting for hours easy to manage. My eye fixated on the rough textures of bamboo paneling and a large mosquito-eater clinging to the entrance glass (ghastly to look at, although harmless to people). Sipped honeyed soy milk, a Pete's coffee, and ate shio zake onigiri for breakfast. Slowly, timidly, I became engaged in conversation with another introvert that spiraled into life, the universe, and trepidations of the public transportation system. That evening I met up with favorite company for a magnificent 焼き肉 dinner (including raw & cooked Kobe beef) whilst enjoying a shoju cocktail (with ume).

Twas' a day brillig with the slithy toves, leaving me glad I was not yet among the departed; as the author put it himself that afternoon, "that sort of good mad", even though my body punished me later for the stress.

Weirdly yours,

IDOL HANDS

Going to CPH.
To see my fav boys live, finally.
And I am actually looking forward to Horse the Band omfg. I heard some songs and decided I liked them. But As I lay Dying ... ugh... I hope they're better live. >__<
Still haven't listened to the other three bands... Not really at least. But I'm sure they're good! :B



Silly musing:
My brother told me an interesting tale a few days ago.
He saw my gigantic nails and for a second didn't believe they were real, after feeling them up, he decided that LOL COOL OK U WIN.
And then took a picture of them, to show his female classmates. He explained  to me that a bunch of them had their nails done on their trip to London.
ಠ_ಠ

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE KIDS!?!?!?
I felt like beating them with their own cellphones.

Back when I went to London (this is something our school provides) I bought clothes and manga. I was a total nerd and not THAT interested in my looks at that time yet I still bought clothes and something nice that I still have on my shelf!

This new generation of teenagers is creeping me the fuck out.

ARJM LEEAAAAVING JUUU FOR THE LAAAAST TAAAAJM BÆJBIIIIIIIIIII

Hvorfor får jeg altid lamme sødsuppepopsange på hjernen, og aldrig et eller andet sejt, ondt metal?

Tilgengæld er jeg begyndt at æde sundere, som i ovnbagte rodfrugter (stadig med kød til, omg), et ævle om dagen og sådan. Det er enormt behageligt. Og jeg stillede uret i går PÅ MIN FRIDAG og stod op kl. 9 og brugte hele dagen (literally) på at gøre rent. Har fået en hjerneskade af at indånde 25% salmiakspiritus, tilgengæld er mine ovnplader rene :]

Og så øver jeg mig i at gå senere i seng (den har I nok ikke hørt før, hva'?) fordi jeg bliver skidesløv og dobbelt-træt af at sove 9-10 timer om natten.

Rart at få hanket lidt op i sig selv en gang imellem. Tænk at nogle mennesker bare lever sådan der generelt, med sunde sengetider, sund mad og evigt overskud til alting og til rengøring. Det er en tilstand jeg aldrig kommer til at tage for givet.

Karina just txt'ed me after talking with the elextricity company (yes Siri, you're right, it IS DONG Energy)
They're fixing the gas. But they're still demanding the 15.000 kr from us, by tomorrow!!
We're completely fucked right now.

So, I'm cancelling all apointments today (sorry Keon) to figure out wtf is going on.
We've been paying our bills, so I don't understand any of it at all!!

fuck fuck fuck!!
I guess I'll have to take another loan at the bank if this doesn't work out.
My pulse is racing and my hands are shaking. Fuck fuck fuck.

Maybe this means no artbook either.

Oct. 9th, 2008 @ 09:49 am TNC on: Facebook- "friends"
Current Mood: thoughtful
I'm a very popular person! Truly, I must be... If you look at my "friends"-counter on my Facebook account it says that I have 97 (count them, 97!) friends... Not bad for a shy little tomboy from the boonies!

The thing is... It isn't entirely true... I have very few people that I consider my friends, and it is definitely a lot less than 97, and some of these people are not even ON Facebook...!

So I sat down and took a look at my friends counter and I realised that out of the 97 so-called friends, there is three or four that I have never met, one that I probably never will meet and know very little about, I don't even know what her voice sounds like! There are 28-30 that are former co-workers, so not included people from the TB admin staff, about 3-4 family members (Kris' family) and about 20-25 former classmates, NONE of whom I have contact with today other than through Facebook, and even then the contact is limited!

Of the 97 people on my friends list, I talk to maybe... 10... on a weekly basis and about 50 of them I speak to every once a month... The rest are just... fillings...

Now, people who know me WELL know that I guard the few close friendships I have like a hawk. I usually say that my closest friends aren't really my friends, they're the family I picked myself. These, I think, can be counted on two hands, maybe less, for they are very very few. Then there are the people I enjoy spending time with and enjoy talking to whom I consider to be great friends, and these are few, but more than my "friend-family"... And the rest, the fillings, are "acquaintances", people I have a neutral relationship with and whom I'd probably get along with fine without much hassle... But all of a sudden 97 friends, consisting of some 75-80 percent "filling", doesn't sound like that much...!

So, here's the fun part! Getting added to someone's friendlist...! I get emails saying that some girl in Germany, never heard of her, has added me to her friend's list because... I made the group "Support the ElfQuest movie" and she happened to be an ElfQuest fan...! Woah, yes, sure thing, that makes us friends...! Best buds, as a amatter of fact! ... or not...!

Got a mail this morning that some crazy girl from my time at Søndervangsskolen had added me to her friend's list... I never liked her... I remember finding her revolting, and I remember the feeling was mutual, and now she wants to get on my friends list? Go take a hike, woman...!

The best one yet is that I have gotten two requests (denied them both) from a former classmate from Hasselager. I think his fame (he took part in the Paradise Hotel series, urgh! *nausea*) has gotten to his brain, because hey, his profile on the website said that he was the honest, straight-foreward Jutland guy... Sure you were, even for the three years you spent picking on my every move. I was very close to doing something really stupid, because being picked on like that makes you feel very unwanted and unliked, and now this fucking dick wants to go on my FRIENDS list? Yes, I carry a grudge, and in my opinion, I do that in all fairness! I have my effing reasons...

So I find that "friends" list a bit funny... They should call it a People I know-list or an Acquaintance list... Because how many can, truthfully, say, that all their entries on their friends list are not just people they know casually, but are in fact their friends...

I sure can't...

So, I got a message from Eri today while at work, saying that someone had been in the apartment and has shut off the gas supply.
So no hot food tonight. Also, a bunch of letters had arrived.

So when I get home, there's three letters with warnings to pay the bills now or the gas will be shut off. WHAT? So, all the letters arrive today, and you shut off the gas today as well? There's different dates on the letters, so appearently they've send them last month, but they didn't arrive until the day that they shut off the gas??
And then there's a bill saying we're to pay 15.000 kr (that's 2700 dollars) by today, or they'll shut off the electricity. WHAT?! They also say that they've sent countless of letters with warnings, but none have come.
Last month we got 8 letters from the energy company, saying things like "you owe us 500 kr", "you owe us 1200 kr", "We made a mistake, you do not owe us 10.000 kr" etc.
So, we contacted the company, and they sent us a new final bill, and we paid it.
So, what the fuck is going on?

Karina is taking time off from work tomorrow and is going to go directly to the company with all the letters and demand to know what the hell is going on and what they're expecting us to do about it.

I'm just..,., wtf, I'm freaking out a little.
Last month we had to pay an extra 5000 kr (950 dollars) in various extra bills, so I have no idea what's going on. Last month my parents bailed me out, but daaamn!!

I hope it all works out DX
