So once again its time for my yearly update. 
Anyways so Michael (the hubby) and I are still going strong. Can you believe its been five years?
Anyways Thomas (the offspring) is doing super well. He climbs and plays like kids twice his age. We are coming up on his 3rd birthday. For that we are going to go to the Carnival Menagerie and have a steam punk birthday party, so that should be fun. Anyways he is pretty good at counting to ten and he kinda has his alphabet down as well.
I took a long break from roller derby and I am back in it now. If all goes well I will be on a team in 40 days. 
I recently started hanging out with the Nerdettes of Dallas, its super fantastic hanging out with other women that can carry on a conversation about the things I have interests.
So besides that I am trying to work on comic related stuff more, right now I am doing a fan comic thing because I am a huge nerd for Steam Powered Giraffe. Also I am going to be looking into trying to sell some of my knit/crochet stuff on Etsy. Hopefully I can buy more yarn that way.
(FYI I do take commission orders)

Anyways stay awesome people (And FOAD people that suck)

Super love!

Michelle

Not Dead

Okay so its been quite a while since I updated things on here. I have kinda drifted from one time absorbing activity to another for the last great while. Right now I am all into my 360 and a few Dreamcast games. Before that it was ponychan.net (which is really awesome) and I don't even remember what I was doing before that. But now I am ready to start trying to be productive again. I have drawn a couple things and finished a scarf. Making a bobble hat at the moment. Let me give some updates since looking at my last journal entry I can see its been quite a while since I did that.

I joined North Texas Derby Revolution. I now Demolition Lover the roller derby girl. Its been really awesome, though because of my schedule I am still with the practice squad The Crash Test Honeys. They have pretty strict requirements for attendance for bouting skaters. I also became a brony/pegasister. I spent way to much time chatting on ponychan and all that, it was quite fun

Thomas now his own little baby skates also. He is walking in those and its adorable, he is gonna be just like mommy. He is also running, jumping and climbing so nothing in my apartment is safe anymore. He has 8 teeth now so he is eating pretty much exactly what I eat, though he isn't overly impressed with indian or thai food so far. I let him have a bit of my Pb&J last week and he stole half of my sandwich. He still isn't doing much talking though.

Michael's (the hubby muffin) job is going well. We get the employee discount here now so our rent/ all our bills are really low (like $500 a month for it all) We are saving money for Thomas's future and starting to invest slowly as well. And we had a lot of fun with a pretty hefty shopping trip. Also the woman who has one step up from Michael's job is going on 3 months of maternity leave and he should be filling that role for her during that which will mean better hours for him. ^_^

I think that's all for now

Well someone finally cleared up what I did that royal fucked up several relationships.
Off handed comment when I was 18. And dark clouds grew over my name since then.
Its frustrating that some of it got twisted around but at least now I know and I don't have to beat myself wondering what happened.
And now I can look back and be like "Wow, what a fucking asshole" and "Wow, I can't believe you got dick whipped like that" and its not cos I am still frustrated by it. Its like looking back and stating with all confidence that my grandma(on my mom's side) what such and evil bitch. Its like some sort of weight is gone now. I hope it doesn't negatively affect my ability to convey all of that pain in art. I have a pretty epic plan those 4 years of pain and I know it can be hard to write pain when you aren't feeling it anymore.

At least I can now look back and know that I did apologize and after that none of it was in my hands. Some one just put to much stock into a few words and now several years of friendship. And I know that I have probably burned through a lot of friends, but its because I grew up. And I decided that I didn't need fair and I didn't need TV and I really didn't need a lot of that drama.

So peace out friends of the past, know that my comics will forever have your grubby little finger prints on them and yeah that one story was about you, and yeah that's how it should have ended.

I'm gonna keep dressing like a super hero and charging around with my adorable son (who I know you adored) and have the husband that is every thing I wanted and then even more awesome squeezed in. And I'm going to make D&D cool.

And this is not for just one of you, its for all the friends I just don't have anymore.
For all the ones that I moved away from or just lost in the shuffle
For Jackie the one I couldn't get over till now
For Rachel who just had to much drama for one best friend to handle
For John and Cat whom I just drifted apart from
For Lacy who should have followed at least one bit of my advice
For Shelly who was a total bitch, nuf said
And for all the assholes in England I was stuck with who were to stupid to even be prejudice well

I feel like my old self again and guess what world, I've got a one finger salute for ya

So while trying to put some effing energy in my day today I listened to my favorite punk mix CD. I call the CD "If You're Punk Rock and You Know it, You're A Fucking Poser (Unless Your Iggy Pop, Then You're a BAMF)" I worked hard to really capture the punk spirit in it, while also trying to keep the songs referring to punks. So while I was thinking of the kick ass songs I thought fashion. I decided to do one outfit for each song. I already finished Red Hot Moon and my mind is whirling with options. Especially with the song "I am a Posuer"

If there are musical suggestions for the CD I am always looking for new ways to improve my works.

So we are shutting down our Mr. Jim's location, we are getting hard balled by our land lord and we can't resign our lease for less then $3k a month (which is way to much for that crap location) We are trying to figure out exactly what we are going to do, but it looks like we are going to go to an existing location and taking it over. (that's the plan)
Its taking us some time to deal with all of that though and most of it is waiting around, soooooooo I  have had lots of time to work on my craft.
And my god I have been working hard.
I just finished sewing up my first loligoth mini hat! I also finished 4 mohawk hats, two sexy skirts, 3 mid-drift sweaters and I have made more progress on a bunny hat. (ooooh and a lingerie set) Also I am recently started a top to go with one of the skirts.  I need to get pictures of some of the stuff, and models willing to model some of it. (FYI I will trade goods for modeling on some of that stuff)
Also I added a bunch of my stuff to my various groups and did a little work with punk craft too.

Besides all that I am playing but loads of Dungeons and Dragons which I am really enjoying my characters for that (though one of them may die) We also bought a zombie roll playing game which is fun. Some people are zombies and some are the survivors so it should be anyone's game. We did have a problem with the first 12 games having the zombies lose terribly, so we changed the rules a little bit so the zombies had a fighting chance and it seems to help but we have only had one game with the new rules.

Michael and I are also reading the Forgotten Realms series. We are about half way through book one right now. Its really helping me get into my evil campaign character for D&D. She is very willing to backstab, though now she is knocked out and left at the mercy of an equally evil bugbear who already killed our only other team mate when he got knocked out in battle. Her only hope for living is going to be if the bugbear decides that he can not take on the remaining guards alone and he needs me to fight with him to finish the mission (our room mate is gonna be pissed when he finds out that his character got killed when he was being NPCed


thats about it I gotta try to go to bed
peace
