Well, 3 deviations up, and now I'm working on a 4th! This one will take much longer though. I think I may have bitten off more than I can chew with this one actually. It's based on the poem "The Highwayman". It has a lot of components, with a lot of detail work to them. I'm going to try though! Hopefully it works out the way I want it to. Anyways, back to work on it!!

Well, I finally got into a manipulating type of mood. I have done 2 in the last 24 hours, and am now working on a third! The one I just uploaded, and the one coming are a big departure from what I've done before. No fantasy. A lot more depressing. I'm doing them as a kind of catharsis for something I have recently been through. Hopefully it will help! Getting out with some girlfriends on Saturday will help as well I think! So that's it for now. Later peoples!

Hello again!!  Only 3 1/2 weeks between journal entries this time!!  A definite improvement from last time!!  

I just uploaded a new deviation!!  Yay!!!    I'm pretty happy with it.  It's a big improvement over my first one, anyway. Of course, on the first one I spent only a couple of hours on it, and on this one, it was probably closer to fifteen hours.  I also am more familiar with PSP now, so that makes it easier.  I'm nowhere near knowing everything it does though, so it's a good thing I'm back living with my mom for a few months.  It's a lot easier getting her help in person than over the phone!!

Yes, I'm living with my mother!!!    It's only for a few months though.  Just to save up for first month's rent and damage to rent a house.  Was in a townhouse, but I had a crazy lady for a neighbour.  She would bang on my wall and complain to the landlord for my TV being too loud (which it wasn't), during the day usually.  Then she would proceed to scream and bang around, and generally make much worse noise than me, usually late at night or VERY VERY early in the morning.  Drove me nuts, so I moved!!  Now I am pettishly hoping that she gets partier after partier in my old place to make her realize how crazy she was!!  Which I am sure won't happen (her realizing how crazy she was, that is).  People like that generally don't.  I like living with my mommy anyway!!  

That's it for now!!  Later!!    

Hello again!!  I said I wouldn't write in here that often, and here I am, 2 days later, writing again.  

I'm starting to work on a couple of things for a couple of contests I'd like to enter, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to need my mommy's help.  

  is my mommy by the way!!  (Hi Mommy!!     )  

I have ideas in my head as to what I'd like to do, but I just don't know enough about the programs to pull them off by myself yet.  And yes, yes, I know there are tutorials out there, but I'm the type of person where I learn better if I'm shown how to do something live.  Just the way my brain works I guess.  Sorry Mom!!  (I've been driving her   with my incessant calling, questions etc.!)  And it's hard for her to explain things over the phone a lot of the time, so I'm going to have to get her down to my place to help me.  

Not that I expect to win either of the contests anyway.  There's WAY better manipulators out there than me.  But I got ideas when I read about them, so I figured I'd give it a shot.  What the hell.

I'm updating my featured art as well.  I've been surfing on here and found some really good pics and I want to put them up.  I'm also going to put up my Mom's latest deviation.  It's very quickly become her most popular one, and I'll give it a little more help here. (VERY little, not many people come to my page.  )

I realize there are 2 by , but I just discovered her yesterday and OH MY GAWD!!!    She is just bloody unbelievable!!  I can NOT believe that the coloured ones are done by hand.  She is EXTREMELY talented, and to top it off, beautiful.  (Life's not fair.  )  I want to be her!!  (I'm working on a plan to secretly take over her life!!)   

Check out contest mizzd-stock.deviantart.com/jou… .   I am now a contributor to the First Place Prize.  A 3 month sub.  It was a spur of the moment thing.  I love her stock photos, and I think the contest is a really good one, so I decided to contribute!

Later everyone!!    

Well, this is my first journal entry.  I'm not that good at this stuff.  Can never think what to say.  So, I probably won't do it that often.  I really just wanted to check out this CSS journal thing and pick a pretty one, and I did!  I also wanted to have a featured art section and a friend section.  Those are probably what I'll update more than anything.  

This one is made by and it available here.  The credit will be at the bottom for every posting, but I wanted to put a credit in my first posting as well.  Thank you lilyas!

I'm not going to bother using a Christmas journal theme, as I don't want to have to change it in a few weeks.  I'll just use this one until I get bored of looking at it, which hopefully won't be for a while.  I love Faerys, so it probably WON'T be for a while!  

I would LOVE a Wicca themed one that included faery elements as well! That's my dream for a journal CSS!! I searched though and there isn't one.

Anyway, that's it for now!  Ta Ta!
