I didn't think I was going to get all my junk packed! I thought I did very well packing my stuff before my help arrived and helped me load the truck. But no, it seems I had stuff hiding everywhere and it took us 2 days to load a truck. Needed the biggest one, 26 foot! For one person! I almost broke both my legs during the move. It's not wise to stand behind a car transporter. I've got the massive bruises to prove it and I'm kind of needing to learn how to walk again.

Made the dash from Ohio to Virginia in about 9 hours. We drove on through the night and got to VA around 430am. Nice to drive in the night, not many people on the road. But makes stopping at rest stops really spooky!

My cats did very well, hardly a peep out of them. I thought I was going to have to listen to them meowing all the way. I thought about putting on some music but changed my mind, thinking that would set them off. Two of the cats got into a little spat just outside VA and I thought I was going to have to separate them. But they calmed down. One of my cats has a habit of laying on the other and the other tolerates it for a while and then lets her have it when she's getting fed up.

Well, I'm off to give my legs some rest

I can't get my Maploco back

I've been busy packing for a big move. I'll be driving 550+ miles with 3 wailing cats in the back, O lucky me! Well, one cat is a perfect travel cat, so she'll probably rearrange the other 2 faces if they don't shut up. Or I'm hoping they'll see her calm and relaxed and follow suit.

But tonight while browsing DA I started looking at cats and I miss my Theo still after so many years that I kind of went a little cat happy on the favorites.

I've been playing with Zbrush and that's a fun program. If you're thinking about getting it, make sure you watch the starter videos from the site. You'll feel like an expert when you know a few short cuts compared to sitting there staring at the screen.

Hopefully I will post some new art stuff soon. I have a few items rendered but I need to run them through PS to play with them some more. I've added a new monitor so this will be fun figuring out if things look good or are too dark or too light.

Since I updated this thing. I'm bad at this. Equally, it has been over a year since I've added anything to my gallery. Shame on me. I got a new computer recently so I should be cranking out stuff. I'm a bit peeved that I can't use my Photoshop on the new pc. I've used the program on my older pc's and well, 3's the limit apparently. So now I have to go buy a new copy of PS if I want to do anything with it. Sucks!

We're almost half way through the year! Time just keeps speeding up each and every year. Remember as a kid we were always going "I wish I was older..." now we're going "I wish time would quit flying by so fast!"

Lots of things have happened since March. I became unemployed...yah...not. My 11 year old kitchenaid crapped out on me, so I bought myself a new bigger better one. It's my birthday and I'm the big 4-0 so I'm having a mid life crisis I think. Probably the reason behind the new KA...It's dark red in color and it's a monster! Gonna be doing some serious baking with that thing!! Anyone have any 4th of July bbq recipes? I rearranged several of my rooms in my house. My computer is now housed in the same room as the tv...so I can watch tv and work on the computer and bake in the kitchen. Yeah, I'm a multi-task goddess, thank you...

I've been on World of Warcraft..working on my blood elf hunter and of course being the multi-task goddess that I am, I am also working on a new priest and rogue... Maybe I have AAD-D...

Weather has been great, we've had a few days of some bad thunderstorms, but I'll take that over days of 90 degree weather and 90% humidity! I'm hoping the weather will hold out for the fireworks. Makes it nice when it's a cool night and you're not dripping in sweat getting eaten alive by the skeeters.

OMG...they're making homemade mac and cheese on the Food channel... they're killing me!!! Gotta go!
