So I've been meaning to write in here for some time. First, I'd like to start on some lighter notes. I suppose this can been seen as a cluster of entries. First, Halloween.

I didn't want to dress up at all for Halloween but I guess you can say Malcolm kinda got to me and I gave in but it was at the last minute so I just put something together real quick. Just put "zombie" make up on and made some slashes and put some fake blood on a shirt. I also sprayed my Chameleon Complex logo on the back. BUT FIRST, my day started out nice because I got a package from Viki.








She baked and mailed me the best sugar cookies I've ever had. I wasn't aware she was such a great baker so that was a good start to my day. It was a very sweet and thoughtful and yummy, special gift. At work I sat next to Clem who was dressed as the joker from the dark knight. He had this really pimped out purple coat that I wanted. Work was okay, kinda back but I'm glad I ended up dressing up cause everyone who did won tickets to Six Flags. I gave my tickets to my sister and brother in law. When I got out of work at Pizza Hut, I went straight to work at Metro. Took some more pics there.

I did Chris' make up.

The Next time I went to work at Pizza Hut, I got fired for something stupid, on my part. I looked for a job for a couple weeks then I decided I'd use my free time to get my community service hours out of the way. I noticed I can get by, barely, but get by working one day a week at Metro. Let that be an insult to Pizza Hut. This was pretty close to a trip I was planning to visit Viki but the week before, I couldn't make it so we were both pretty sad about that. The plan is to get my hours and payments done so I can move over there. I have ten days left for my hours.

TRIBUTE TO CAMILLE

So Camille died in December. She was pregnant so Matilda was supposed to pick her up. She never did. Then at least bring her cage. She didn't. So when Camille died, she wanted me to wait for her to come before I buried her. She never did. She has made it very easy for me to not give a fuck about her. I partly blame her for the death of Nero and Camille. I don't understand how someone who loves animals can be so irresponsible. We've spoken a handful of times since but I have not seen her. So Camille will get her own little tribute like Nero did. She, like Nero was Matilda's but spent the first month or so under my care. If a pregnant female chameleon does not have a place to dispel her eggs, she will keep them inside. If she keeps them in too long, she can die. I had a place for her to lay her eggs but I guess she didn't want to lay them in the cage with Leo.

So my grandma has been going in and out of the hospital. Her progress seems to fluctuate and I'm never really fully updated with her health. Whenever I try to ask my aunt, she makes me like an asshole for not knowing. No one ever answers at my grandma's and my sister never answers her cell phone or returns my calls or text messages.

Thanksgiving consisted of me sleeping all day. I had been up all night the previous day working on a project. I fell asleep around 8:00AM. I woke up in time to have a plate with my grandmother. Besides waking up to eat, I spent the whole day in my room with the light off.

X-Mas was pretty lame. Viki and I watched Valkyrie together though so that was pretty cool. I spent the whole day downtown to avoid my family.

New Year's was a bit disappointing. Didn't make half as much money at work as I was hoping.

A week later was when I found out I couldn't visit Vikiand we were both depressed. It looked like there wasn't a chance we'd see each other at all.

So Artistically, I've been brushing up on my photography and Photoshop skills, which, thanks to Viki, has got a lot better. I've been avoiding DA so I started focusing on music. I did some vocals for Dave, Chris and (Jimmy's?) project. The idea was to record some vocals, have Chris add drums to it, send it to Dave to add guitar, send it back to me to refine the vocals and Jimmy to add either synth or guitar. Or I would have added the synth myself. However, to my, for some reason, disappointment, I have not received anything from them. I gave up checking up on any status of the songs. Chris called me one night to see what he did with one of the songs so I took the time to head over there only to find that he basically sampled the first line of my vocals into one of his "break core" songs. And, yes I intend to be condescending with the quotes cause I never wanted to make music that fits into labels or go for a certain style or image. I may have thrown the term industrial in there but that's such a loose, umbrella term. Anyway, that disappointment led me to start focusing on my own project, Chameleon Complex. I have four songs coming along that I've been adding to here and there. Took about a week break and now updating my journal, which has taken two days.
O yeah, and I was sick these past three days.
I also want to start working on the project I started with Viki but I'm not sure how she feels about that. Plus I know she's very busy.




I guess I will end this here now, to later account for the week I mentioned, because it was...THE greatest weekend...EVER.
