Belated Holidays!

Yeah, I should update a bit more. So for my holiday (which happens to be Christmas) the thing I got that stood out above everything else happens to be this thing:

In case you're wondering, his name (his actual factory name) is Clocky! And yes, he is an alarm clock with wheels. All I can say though is that it works! Very well! I woke up, chased it down, and when I turned it off, my first thought was "holy crap, I'm awake." Plus I got a tiny universal remote keychain. Turning off a tv at wal-mart that someone's watching is so fun.
All for now.
One last comment: Clocky looks a bit like Pintsize from QC!

Two posts in less than an hour...

Not usually one to post twice in one day, but I posted some new art on Deviantart! This one I thought of while sitting in Chemistry:


and this one, which I am a bit more proud of:

(wish I could have colored the Zune, but it was too small to do easily)
That's all for now. I'm gonna go get a Whopper.

Cool Things

Ok, so my friends showed me this great comic called Questionable Content. (not porn, don't worry.) Basically, well, I can't exactly explain the plot. Wikipedia describes it as a "slice of life" comic. Read a few pages, and you'll understand. Plus they talk about a lot of great bands, such as Mogwai, which is now one of my favorite bands. (Scottish, Post-Rock, what's better than that?) So much so that I bought their newest CD in Des Moines, along with a Dandy Warhols CD. Something just feels amazing about actually owning the CD, rather than having an invisible piece of data that you don't "actually own." With all that said, go read it, and go hear them! Do these things I say!

(now if only someone read this that didn't already read QC)
