Vul: I had a great time tonight. Saw a band I really liked!
Vix: don't really care.
Vul: no, honestly it was cool. And they were headliners with no vocalists. It was neat!
Vix: oh. That IS interesting.
Vul: don't sound so surprised. Anyway, I was impressed, but you know me. Any decent enough bass-line and you may as well stick me in a cage to dance for all the spic I'm worth.
Vix: Now I don't like this band.
Vul: well, I liked 'em. But no one else danced-- fucking New Yorkers. Just standing around nodding like a bunch of inebriated pigeons. Felt like an idiot afterward, regretted nothing, but still.
Vix: So, this band made no one dance with you... I like this band.
Vul: what a fucking lousy night.

1. I've re-opened my DeviantPrints account! The issue with art thieves... well, DeviantArt will never be known for their brilliant customer service, they're just too indie for their own good. But the hideous humongous watermark is certainly an improvement to doing, you know, nothing.

2. Fun commissions! Is there any better distraction than selfless productivity. I think not. Plus, it makes people happy. That's a karmic good I can do with more of. ^__^

3. iTunes conspires against me as a sign the universe is laughing and now you can too!
With "Amy Winehouse - Valerie".mp3 [7MB] and/or "The Zutons - Valerie".mp3 [6 MB]

4. There is no four, instead here is some photographic evidence of said Val!Explosion care of my niece Crystal's camera working skills.

2 Hours in:
Clio - What do I do now to get her in the carrier?
Vulz - Why don't you just head toward the front door? It's likely she'll follow. If she thinks your going, she'll want to go with you.

2 Hours ago:
Jmom - What do I do to get her want to use the potty?
Vulz - Why don't you just head toward the bathroom? It's likely she'll follow. If she thinks your going, she'll want to go with you.

More Evidence:

-Caught a mouse single-handedly Sunday morning because my cat[s!] couldn't be bothered.
-Trained the kid's, recently discovered to be female hamster, accidentally named Humbert Humbert, to be handled by children and not bite or piddle.
-Rescued and restored a snapping Turtle, I then affectionately named Suicide. Donating her a year later to the local school, where the unexplained nickname "Suie" remains to this day.
-Released all spiders and mice trapped living to the open field three block's away. Yep, this means walking all the way there, arms extended and hands clasped shut, like a great big goof.
-Also, I tend to give animals very weird names. ^^; [Suicide (turtle), Mischief (my dalmatian), Misery, Id & Omen (my cats), Humbert-Humbert (hamster), Furball (The Iguana) Etc.]
-The last point is a winning argument as to why I should never be allowed to have children!
