I woke up at about 5:30am to my mom comming into my room saying we could not go because she was ill.  I begged her to take me,  I told her i would do anything.   Still I could not go.  I was very sad because Rhett and Link make it so I can go through a school day of being picked on, laughed at, hit and what not  and come home and watch people make me laugh.  So at about 6:30am I went into my mom's room, and  begged her to take me.  She had lost her voice, but she was able to get…

My sister and my best friend left the Columbus area of Ohio at about 1:00. We arrived at the Kentucky meet-up point at a little before 7, just minutes before Rhett and Link got there. In total, there and back, we drove for about 9 hours. (That's not counting our own rest stops.) Rhett and Link gave us kudos for coming the furthest of all the fans there.

I shall discard all the lovely, but unnecessary, details about our trip like getting lost, trying to figure out how to pump gas,…

right. I've had... I would say about a five year chunk out of my life where I haven't touched any of my paints, pencils, sketch pads, canvas's. not even those scissors that cut insane jagged lines. I spilt some PVA glue the other day. I don't think that counts. there wasn't any glitter near it. SO i have now vowed to dive (toes first) into art, because i miss it! The most artistic thing I've done in this time is change my hair colour several times. This is not good enough. I think this place…

I have been forcibly made aware of something I've probably been subconsciously aware of for some time now. I am no longer my little sister's go to guy for problem solving. Had Dad been alive I'd likely never have been that, but I was once upon a time.  As the years have passed between us so has the distance grown. Though the familial love is still there and strong, the connection has been growing ever dimmer as she's grown closer to her new husband. That is what brought this realisation to…

because it's only a jumper and they don't really tend to have massively big hoods or anything.

dats right: RESPEKT!

all im wantin is a little lovin

well, not really because I…

Loneliness.

That's how I feel.

Well, not really me

But my poor tummy.

Dinner, is so very lonely

if only

I had an ice cream coney!

Here's a song about the woes of my life, and how I feel right now.

Just this evening

My mouth sought freedom

from it's seemingly life-long deprivation

of yummy, yummy food

But then-

A rissol came along

it said, "Hello!

Would you like me in your tummy?"

"Well, OK!"

So into my mouth it went!

Past my esophagus 

it's probably somewhere there now

but soon it will…

             Hello Beasts! New blog post up, even though I did one last week. That one doesn't really count though, cause it was a special report. We're back to the bi-weekly thing... if it's a thing.

             Like always, I'll start off with school. Nothin much goin on, to be honest. I have a debate in English, and I'm TERRIFIED cause I'm scared to talk in front of crowds. The California High School Exit Exam is coming up in two weeks, and you have to pass it to graduate. I have…

A friend of mine blogs over on wordpress and his last blog got me to thinking about certain elements of my overall religion. I wholly recommend you read his article it's full of smarts that you won't find here. The article he wrote is here: http://benephobia.wordpress.com/

So onto my rambling, warbling tirade.  My target today is the Westboro Baptist Church and others who are like them. As I wade through the vile filth that is…

          HELLO BEASTS! Yeah, I know it hasn't been two weeks (if the bi-weekliness is a thing) but I had to blog about this. As few of you know, I went on a trip to San Diego this past 3-day weekend. I have never been there, and my parents decided to go to the World-Famous San Diego Zoo. We get up on Saturday, drive 5 hours (me snoring in the backseat most of the way) and we arrived in... rainy San Diego. Kind of a letdown, but it'll clear up! There were some tensions cause our GPS decided…

So for those of you mythical beasts who have been on here for a while, you know what is going on. For me, I am a newly born beast without mythical antlers or fur yet. I come from Eastern North Carolina in a little town outside of Jacksonville NC known as Southwest. Yes, I live in a place where only this mythical beast can cover all cardinal directions without the world exploding into a bunch of tiny pieces. I am from Southwest in…

So I sit here having just finished helping with an Alpha Course session, how did it go? Not good, or at least not as good as I'd hoped it would. The talk given by Nicky Gumble was awesome, gave me an insight into the Bible I've been needing, a clue as to what I should be doing with a 2000 year old book, but the discussion with our small group was a tad dispiriting. For one I made the biggest mistake of all by offering an answer to a question as if it was THE answer to the question. For one I…

So as I sit here listening to a single episode of a podcast I can already see I'm going to be following for a while to come, I think about why I'm listening to it in the first place.  It's a Christian thing and it gets me to thinking about faith and religion and importantly the difference between the two. It's so easy for folks to lump faith in with the problems of religion and assume that because one has made some mistakes in the past, that the other must therefore be…

          Hello Beasts! New blog post up NOW! It's been about two weeks, so it's due. If the bi-weekly post is a thing, I mean.

          Nothin much to talk about schoolwise. Everything's going as it usually does.The guy who sits next to me in Spanish 2 Honors has been teasing me a lot more lately, he even said he HATED me. He doesn't mean it... right?

           Valentine's Day is comin up on Monday. I'm generally on the more negative side of indifference for Valentine's Day.…

Yes indeed, some writing. Not this here paragraph, this is to tell you about the writing. I don't think this is awesome I don't think this is anything but writing, but if you've a mind to some commentary, tips would be useful. Expect typos and grammatical inconsistencies. I'm not good at this stuff, though spellcheck should have caught most of them.

 "It's a little cliché to start this with any sentence including the words dark and stormy night,…

This here be a blog post, perhaps of an articulate nature, perhaps of a rambling, meandering mess . My vote is for the latter, but we shall see.

First to things about me: Or is that too much? If you're reading this perhaps it's what you wish to know, perhaps you'd rather hear the inane thoughts of a potential madman. Maybe we'll get a little of both. Huzzah! Anyway. I'm me. Picture is no doubt somewhere about.

I'm not a real Reverend, though that may change in…

A faolnix is a wolf with wings - in this case a pure black wolf with indigo eyes and dark blue tipped black angel/bird wings. I combined one of the names that means 'wolf' with the word phoenix, my other favorite mythical beast, and voila!
