Hmmmm....

I hate mornings. Why? Because everything becomes clearer than it was at night. All of a sudden my drawings that I did yesterday, half bleary-eyed but excited to no end, are crap. No, really. If I squint, they just might be passable, but dammit, they're crap! I have ideas on how to improve them, but this isn't fair. Went to bed finally content from having overcome major artist's block and drawn my boys once again (in case anyone is wondering, 'tis Moony and Padfoot, my wonderful, luverly, gay as sin - it can happen, dammit! - boys from Harry Potter and The Faithful Canines... (What? I can't make up book titles? Damn.))

You see, kissing is an extremely difficult pose to capture. In one of my pictures, Sirius is standing and we see his profile, and Remus has come up to him from the side, almost, and started kissing him. Sirius is cupping his face. But it looks weird. I don't know how to do it. My damn VCR doesn't have its remote (I haven't ever seen it, but that's because it isn't even my VCR but a travelling one, and I'm currently living with said travelers) and the pause button is missing. Therefore, I can't even take a decent look at what it looks like from a movie. Damn the man.

Therefore, I hate mornings. There is one thing that I'm proud of, and its Sirius' hand. I can't draw hands to save my life, but this - this one's good. Even if it does look like it's coming out of nowhere.

Ah, hell. I'll never be as good as I want to be, so why bother.

Hehe, aww, I'm glad, too! :) Thank you for your encouragement, you're so wonderful! I just hate it when things look so different than you wanted them to... And you'll see - it's an awkward picture... But Stickman!Sirius and Stickman!Remus? Wow, I'm getting dirty thoughts... as per usual. ;) My God. My mind is *soooo* in the gutter right now. The movie I told you about? I don't even want to count how many times I watched these two scenes. It's definitely beyond normal - which is the norm for me, I guess. :)

Stickman!Sirius and Stickman!Remus getting it on?!? Oh, my, you have it worse than I thought.
Heh, heh--could be funny though. I used to draw this little cartoon character Devil Stickman for my nephew and have him doing all sorts of horrible things (no, not the kind of horrible things SMS and SMR would be doing--get out of the gutter, girlfriend! My cousin was only, like *five*!!)

It was fun though and I 'd draw this whole series of cartoons all over his birthday cards and stuff. He loved them and always asked me to make up new adventures. DS even had a Devil StickDog! :-O Just for kicks, I did a cartoon on his graduation card last year when he graduated high school--he nearly fell over laughing.

At any rate, I can't wait to see the picture--I'm sure it will be lovely. Wish I'd been there to watch the movie with you. We could have rewound those scenes any number of times--it sounds quite scrumptious. *And*, just imagine how many times we'd rewind the Naked!Alan and GuySnogging!Alan scenes in "Dark Harbor" if we watched *that* together?!? It would be scary.

We are baaaad. And isn't it fun?

Can you guess who wrote the above bit? Yeah, Swiss-Cheese-For-Brains forgot to log in. Duh!

Oh, you crack me up! LOL! I was wondering - who the hell is that? Though, I did realize that it must have been someone I knew because, well, it just sounded like someone I knew. ;)

Oh, man, you have no idea how much I wanted you to be there! I had actually been thinking about it for a while - "oh, I wish she was here, we could do this or that", etc. We would have *way* too much fun together! ;)

And yes. I do have it worse than you thought. I have it worse than *I* thought, and that's pretty damn scary.

By the way, don't feel stupid for forgetting to log in - my first thought after reading your last comment was "but who's Swiss-Cheese-For-Brains"? Yes. Can we rename me - something like... "Just-Plain-Old-Cheese-For-Brains"?

*sigh*

Let's just put it this way--we'd have more fun together than it should be *legal* to have. Think about it for a moment: two Harry Potter-obsessed, Alan Rickman-obsessed, Remus/Sirius obsessed slash fanatics who are more like kindred spirits than merely two people who met over the internet! I'm betting that if we ever spent a weekend together, we'd have to be living on massive quantities of caffeine simply because we'd have so much to talk about that we couldn't take time for such mundane pasttimes as *sleep*!!

And, dear, you are *anything* but plain. How about, say, ummm, "Brie-For-Brains" instead? ;-

And now I have a huge grin on my face. And I'm all bouncy. You HAVE to make it down here! I mean, I'm leaving soon...and so is Alan. And we're leaving for the same country, I just realized... *strange and scary thoughts of kidnap and stalking enter crazy mind* Oh, I wish. But you're right - sleep would be out of the question. Who the hell needs sleep, anyway? (Yes, I went to bed at 4 because I was drawing. Sleep = not too important.)

Brie-for-Brains? Mmmm, sounds good. Now, where did I put that load of bread... ;)

Well, when do you and Alan leave? If I'm going to try to come out, I'd have to schedule it around dog shows that i've already entered and/or have committed to going to with Carrie since we make plans regarding who is driving and what hotel, etc.

I could possibly combine a few days with you and a few days' visit with a friend in CT who would *strangle* me if she found out I'd been to the East Coast without visiting her. And, whatever bits of me would be left, her daughter would destroy!!

So, give me some ideas on what would work, places I could stay, stuff like that--and I'll see what I can do. I'm not used to having dog shows all summer like this--in the Midwest, all of our shows were in spring and fall, with my whole summer off.

Maybe, just maybe, we can pull this off. I'd love to come out and spend some time with you! It would be an absolute blast, I just know it. The two of us set loose on NYC.....

All I can say is poor, poor Sam.
