I've been living computer free with my girl and my baby for three and a half months now, and life's pretty good.

He's getting so big so fast.

Oh, and a hurricane tore all of the shingles from my roof! But I'm still in Kentucky o_O;;

I'm thinking of turning my art in a new direction (ie. not animu) and getting a new DA.

Don't forget me, y'all!

SUPPOSEDLY if you've seen over 85 movies, you have no life. Mark the ones you've seen. There are 205 movies on this list. Copy this list and paste this as a journal.

Then put an X next to the movies you've seen, add them up, change the header adding your number, and click "Post" at the bottom

Have fun!

Now: put "I've seen _ out of 205 movies" in the subject line

(Crossposted on The Mobius Forum, DeviantArt, and MySpace.

I define myself as an anime fan.

Put down your weapons. That doesn't mean I'm an otaku, fanboy, pervert, japanophile, or terrorist. That means I have no problem admitting I don't think I'm too grown up to enjoy the occasional cartoon. Unfortunately, american animation lacks (IMO) in character development, art design, color usage, soundtrack, and plot. So, unless I'm looking for comedy, I've turned to Japan for my toons.

Unfortunately, my college anime group has, to say, "failed to deliver" on a good anime in at least the past year. I don't know if 2006/2007 were just bad years, but between new DVDs and new fansubs, I just haven't found anything new to dig. So I turn to you, respected Internet. Help me find a new show or two to look into and really give a chance.

To help define my taste, here's a pair of lists:

Anime I have enjoyed in the past: Ai Yori Aoshi, Cowboy Bebop, Dragonball Z, Excel Saga, Gravitation, Gundam Seed, Gundam Wing, King of Bandit Jing, Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team, Rurouni Kenshin, Trigun

Anime I've never understood the popularity of, despite seeing more than once: Bleach, Deathnote, FLCL, Inuyasha, Naruto

Anything with a plot revolving around the new girl in school, breast jokes, any anime where at least three characters can be defined as "moe" or "lolicon", any anime with sexual situations used as a comedic device more than once every ten minutes, and any combat anime where you can begin it's description with "It's kinda like..." and name at least three anime without mentioning Bleach, Buso Renkin, Gurren Laggen, or Naruto, NEED NOT APPLY. This is the kind of garbage I'm fed up with. I don't care if she's busty, or cute, or it's allegedly funny, I don't need to see the first episode summary of:
Well, [New girl] is revealed to be an [angel/demon/robot/american/sex icon/generally out of town or school district] and is shown around school by [generic guy with short brown hair, school clothes, three to four male friends, some angst complex, and a common Japanese name], where 5-30 men take an immediate liking/lust for raping her that she doesn't realize. By the episode's end, she has moved into his house [or vice versa][or maybe mansion where all financial situations are solved for no good reason], he has awkwardly seen at least 75% of her bodily skin, and they have stumbled into some sexual position by accident."
for the sixth time.

Maybe you think I'm picky. I, personally, think I just want to see some new toon from Japan that isn't crap.

I deleted a crapload of sketches from times past for various reasons, and uploaded two more that show I've done recent drawings, and I'm seriously practicing.

My son, Gaberial, was born on Friday at like 2:32pm. 9lb .02 oz, 20.25in, full head of hair, love to death.

More info in the future.
