Soo, with a few health issues...I decided - well that and I kind of have to - I'm juicing for a while.  I was curious about them.  In the old days of gall bladder issues my mom told me they would make you live off of broth and jello. Yuck...Jello.  I'm doing this with an online meal planner, I didn't purchase any expensive system...cause well...they are expensive.   I thought it would be interesting to blog my experience and maybe keep some of my favorite recipes for snacks and meals on the run.  If anyone reading this has some awesome recipes feel free to share.  I technically won't count today because I'm so tired I've had only one juice which was actually yummy and I could actually get that god aweful spirilina down. Horray to pinapple and peaches! The first 3 days I'm staying clear of most spices, if I feel better I can't wait to get creative with some.  Along with helping said problem, I was reading juicing can take away cravings for processed food, which would also be awesome.

Its quiet. Things have been pouring from my brain onto my sketch book, I blame a curtain book and constant mood I'm in. You know that mood. Like you could snap at someone...dig out their eyes with a spork and serve them up in there tea of coffee of choice. "Would you like one lump or too, kind sir?"
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies...by Jane Austen and Seth Grame-Smith

Once my recent drawing is done I'll toss up a scan. I'll get all squinty eyed and try to buckle down on it tomorrow. And then finishing this deliciously bastardized American classic where hopefully more drawing happenings...will well...happen.

Can't wait till tomorrow....yeah!

Haven't posted in forever, and I feel really bad. Excuses be damned I'm back and can't wait for tomorrow. My cousin is getting hitched. This will be our second wedding we've attended this year. I'm charging up my camera, and I'll post a couple of pictures and a link to my facebook if I can ever figure that damn thing out.





Anyway, I have to type about something....my taste in clothes suffers a massive case of schizophrenia. And here is my problem. I try to clean up, but my eye always gravitates to the alternative style. Chunky New Rock boots, such a comfortable break from heels. And if anything shines it had better come from pyrimid studs and they had better be silver. I know they've been pulled into mainstream along with striped stockings, skulls, and Eeyore and the Nightmare before Christmas, but it doesn't mean I stop loving them.





Now this brings me to something else...sandals...and I'm sorry if I'm being segmented and random. I pick up a few pairs and I always regret it. I can't stand them...But these....

To me these just don't scream hemp skirt like many sandals I've half heartedly purchaced...and for that...I am forever grateful. Maybe these or something like it can make it to my closet. -shudders- Hemp skirt Itchy itchy itchy.

In the mean time I'll love my peep toes for keeping most of my feet covered living minimum proof that I do in fact have toes. And when spring like weather actually rolls around I'll angrily beat the hell out of my turquoise laden hippy foot traps.

Gee...where to start...

No Migraines! Occasionally I get dry mouth...(what am I 80?) and I get a mild tingling in my fingers and toes...and bouts of stupidity...but I've been sick for a couple of weeks. If coughing my lungs out and having a stuffy nose isn't doing it then maybe the cough syrup with codeine is...I'm feeling alot better now though...You know that bitter feeling when you tell someone that you don't feel good and they tell you its been going around the office and it'll only last a few days? Yeah...I catch a tiny cold and it blows up into a plague. But enough of that. :) As far as the "Brain fog" side effect goes if it persists after awhile...I might look into another option. Its going to have to get bad...though...like...lose my job bad...because I can't believe I haven't had any migraines in a while...

In other matters, I said I'd post some outfit pics but due to my icky mood I hadn't had the drive to. Here are some pics taken over the summer just to share a few. I'm hoping that this state will see some more warm summer like days.

Making note...

Not even on a twice a day dose yet and I'm having trouble sleeping...maybe once the dosage increases I'll get alittle drowsier at night. I'm supposed to call when I get up to the dosage for a few weeks. I'm using this to make a list of any weirdness that happens. There will be a real post later on today about the appartments we looked at...and fell in love with....and I'm going to post some sketches.

Here comes the brain experiment

Today starts a venture to get rid of my migraines. I make plans to go out...only to find some excuse to stay home because its bright and sunny out...and I can't hold up my head for longer then 2 minutes. My first dose start of the mirical called Topomax. if this doesn't work then I can go on an antidepressant that works the same way but....I will be in a drowsy haze. So I'm hoping this works. Its a gradual increase in 3 day steps. I'll be making a note on here when I actually get them to keep track. I had the start of one today, but I have something stronger then Exedrine, called relpax. I remember trying samples before and feeling completly knocked out. but now I feel pretty good. No sleepyness or dizziness. I pretty much want my mood to improve and its so hard when I want to bite someones head off just because they are talking...making noise....normal talking tone....feels like a jackhammer....dancing on brain squirrel. Anyway...be prepaired through for picture spamming. That will be tomorrow. oh...another thing...appartment browsing tomorrow...cited to see but not getting my hopes up.

More tomorrow hopefully.
Eat cupcakes, drink tea and be merry lil ratties.

Random musings

It's been a while since I've opened this can of worms that is my brain and share some yummy goodness on here. I gotta wait for a shaky stomach to calm down anyway before I do laundry. Because going without clothes is unacceptable. Speaking of clothing and the like, I got an early present, yesterday I got a huge purse from the Jovovich Hawk collection that I loved. I was sold at the size (although its bigger then what I imagined when I looked on the sit). It's a purse that could double as a bowling bag to store bowling shoes and a bowling ball, as well as pack for a 3 night getaway. Amazingness and future complaints of back discomfort aside I can't wait to use it. Just gotta remember to try not to fill it to the brim. Besides the size the detail of swallow sealed the deal, a mix of lady and a tiny touch of old school tattoos that I love so much. I shamelessly confess that I practically bought half the collection, (my poor husband) because of its ease of wearing. I'm not sure if I can say my style is strictly bohemian, actually I know its not. I'm a fashion skitzo sometimes I just want to wear combats or sneakers and some video game geek shirts, because its comfortable damn it. And video games are awesome. But atleast I'm not really someone to tell everyone what they should and shouldn't be wearing. Well, unless I can see pit stains from a mile away. But that's just gross. Anyway you can see what is rapidly flying off shelves here: http://www.target.com/b/ref=sc_pgb_r_12_0_16275561_1/602-8247726-7239808?ie=UTF8&node=405165011. They had a lot of mixed reviews, but you know sometimes its nice to wear a dress and not feel like I have to suck in my gut the whole time. xD

If someone told me a year ago that I would be wearing more dresses I would probably scoff. My mind changed after a trip to Hawaii, where the weather would go from breezy to warm. I walked around a historical fair for most of the day sporting a long cotton dress. It was so comfortable and it felt like a huge t-shirt to me. Didn't even work up a sweat.

On another note, my hubby had a wonderful birthday, (April fools day) I surprised him because I was able to switch my work hours. Sneaky sneaky. Picked up 2 car stereos because mine starts to make screeching noises weather I'm listening to the radio or using the CD. The better half's need a better radio too. The radio works, but the CD player doesn't. I'll link to the the kind later.

On another consumer happy note, I've got plans for another tattoo, its a dragonfly but its actually made up with parts of the human skeleton. A friend of mine brought to my attention something that reminded her of what I was talking about and I was floored. At a later time I bumped into the tattoo artist that I go to and he already knew what I was talking about. Its so great to work with someone that gets you. Actually I'm so glad to never have the opposite experience because...um....ouch. Anyway, here's a link to the said movie Tooth and Nail http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0922642/. Though the picture is a butterfly you can get the idea of what I was looking for. Haven't actually seen that movie though.

Well, that's all I have for now. And the laundry won't clean its self. Besides, don't you have something to do? Aren't your leaches hungry? Better feed them :)
<3 Cheers
