The title sounds much more vulgar than what I'm actually going to write about.
First off, check out the new icon. Keep watching.
So, Friday, I got to attend my first REAL session of figure drawing. Which means a complete lack of clothing.
Luckily our model was a cheery 20-something lady. I've found it's to hard to feel awkward when you're trying to draw correctly at the same time. I nixed the pencils and just sketched and shaded with my warm gray markers. It looks almost the same as pencil, but less messy. I feel like I'm improving already.
Made a whole foods run (Note to self: Only do this once a month...). I was craving salmon, not sure why, but dammit, I got me some salmon! Expensive as hell salmon. Then I got home and realized I don't know how to cook. So one consultation of the internet later, I threw some salt and basil on it and pan fried it in lemon juice. After going to eat it, I realized the inside was still pink and gooshy and I had used too much lemon. So I fried it again, this time with just water. It took the edge off the lemon flavor and tasty fish was had by me. And I didn't even burn it.
Then, since I was still feeling culinary, I decided to make chai:

Lots of assignments due this week, and research hours, and tests. And I'm sitting here doing nothing, because that's how I roll.
Birthday's in two weeks. Not sure what I'm doing yet, if anything. I know I'll be down for Friday night and most of Saturday that weekend, but b-day is on Sunday, which means I get to drive back up here. Blech. Birthdays get less exciting when you get older. And I got my big present already in the form of a television. In truth, I just want $$$ so I can commission folks and continue saving for the super secret skin art.
I know what I'm doing for halloween though. Had to nix my first idea after the recent Tyra Banks furry drama. But provided I can find a gun belt, this is going to be awesome.
