ewatts_iconListening to: All the Right Moves – One Republic {Listen too?}
Mood: Apathetic
Working On: Getting all of the images I want to open in Lightbox.

     I finally took the plunge and started to download some Wordpress plugins, problem is, hopefully I will be able to stop sometime soon! Lol I have recently installed the Live comment preview, that shows what your comment will look like AS your typing it! :D Try it out and leave me a comment! The second thing I downloaded was the Lightbox plug-in. If you don’t know what Lightbox is or does then your clearly not a web designer and thats cool too. To see what it does simply click one of my “Recent Work” Icons and the image should show up in a cool, self-adjusting container. Thats all it does, it seems like nothing but it makes the site seem much cooler, in my eyes at least, and I love it. It took about an hour for me to figure it out, but I finally figured it out! :D

     HOKAY! So now to the post title and what thats all about. For a late Christmas gift Shannon and Nico gave me 3 Domos!!!! I was SO FRICKING HAPPY!!!!! I LOVE DOMO! I have no idea why, I have no idea what he is from, what he does but he looks so cool and he is just awesome!. Well anyway they got me a big brown one, a little brown one with a pink guitar (kinda gay) and a big pink one! IT WAS A BIG DOMO FAMILY!!! Below is a picture I took just about seconds after I received them.

     And did I name them you ask!?! OF COURSE!!!!! The big pink one (the mom) Is Kristen Domo, the big brown one (the dad) is Papa Domo and the little one (that hangs in my car, and the offspring of the dad and mom) is Little Kid DOMO!!! Muahhaha! Creative names? I THINK SO!!!!

     Lastly, because I need to make this post short because my mom is bitching at me to leave so we can go get bread and then eat at Panera. Is the amazing song I am listening to now. Its All the Right Moves by One Republic. I LOVE IT! And the only thing I love more than this song right now? THE VIDEO!!!!! Check it out! Its amazing! Enjoy GUYS!

Kristen Bell Tangent (KBT)

epicListening To: Money Honey – Lady Gaga {Listen too?}
Mood: Not tired at all…-.-
Working On: A movie review for the MATM section. (Modern at the Movies)

     So its 3:17am and I am not tired at all. Which is really annoying because I feel asleep at 7am yesterday and slept until 5pm! WHAT!?! I officially am a deadbeat :) I am DETERMINED to fix my sleeping habit VERY SOON! Mostly because I have to do community service on Monday. (I have to do 15hrs by the 8th…oh joy -.- )

     OK! So the other night…I guess night, maybe it was yesterDAY…who knows? I was looking at some pictures on various fan sites, (because they have the best photos) and I stumbled upon a Kristen Bell fan site (of course I peeked around :) ) And I found A LOT of really good photo shoots of her that I have never seen before, so I decided I would make like 1 or 2 blends for my portfolio since I have making better and better blends (at least I think so). So it turns out, I saved TOO many pictures and opened them in my Photoshop, so I ended up making 3 blends of her…hence the post title. Whenever I do this again, because I KNOW it will happen, I will call it a KBT :)

     Some updates that I have made on the site include the “Recent Work” table to the right of this blog. I will showcase my recent work even if I don’t offer it anywhere else, just to give a feel of the things that I do make but don’t make it online. Another update is the portfolio. I have wanted to make a digital portfolio for the LONGEST time and I have finally achieved that, WOOT! However it is not as “snazzy” and “flashy” as I would have liked. It would have been much better with a different layout completely, like a cool flash layout that showcases my work? Maybe when I get more things added to it.

     Now some personal stuff. My parents didn’t completely let me down this Christmas. I woke up 2 days ago to my brother handing me $300. I was extremely confused and I asked “What the hell is this?” And he said “Its Christmas money from mom and dad.” Like always my parent fell into some money. However, I was under the impression that they were paying my car insurance instead of giving me Christmas money, so I got up and talked to them about it. I asked them and they said, “Yea that $300 is your Christmas money.” AWESOME! I really didn’t think my parents had it in them to be nice! So I went to the mall and bought some clothes since I have been wearing the same rags for the past 4 years. I am also saving $100, just in-case and to visit my friend in Franklin, MA when he gets back from his retreat. :)
