# hee!
edit - that reminded me -
when I was small the class was asked to draw a picture of our dads doing whatever they did on the weekend so the pictures could be displayed for "father's night". I drew dad in bed watching tv with a can of beer on the nightstand and a ciggie in his mouth. needless to say that drawing did not go up with the rest but was handed over to my mum who has kept it hidden away to this day. oh the shame!

# self-portrait?
i have one of my drawings from when i was about three or four hidden in a book somewhere. it's my vision of jamaica (with a little story of the island i imagined, too), and for some reason i assumed everyone there lived in teepees, so that's what i drew.

another one from about the same time shows that i was learning adverbs and that i obviously liked them -- the words 'bulldozerly' and 'gardenly' are featured quite prominently.

I can see he has a bright future in a creative field.

p.s. is google borked for anyone else, I haven't been able to get it all night?

# It's working for me.
Google UK? or regular?

# google regular.
tried off and on since 6 p.m. (-5 gmt)

gah. google UK isn't working either, I think my firefox must have gotten borked, favicons aren't showing in my bookmarks either. time for a reinstall.

# I used to not put in any arms
and said that 'their arms are behind their back'. This was a clever ploy to hide the fact that I couldn't be fucked to draw them.

all this is giving me flashbacks - the tin of shared crayons in kindergarten when you could never find a piece of black bigger than 1/16 inch and you really needed it..
(I helped save b3ta! sosumi, Wed 28 Sep 2005, 6:25, archived)
# in our kindergarten...
...the emphasis was on sharing, so a crayon pack had to be shared by two kids. this miserable little girl named karen mason (yes, i remember almost all of their names, and it was over thirty years ago) was my crayon 'buddy' and she tried to hog the green and blue to herself. in retaliation, i rarely let her use the black.

# oh!
And upon being asked to go to the chalkboard to print the word cat or somesuch, being very proud of being selected decided to skip and promptly tripped, my head connecting with the corner of a desk resulting in a large egg on my forehead. Charlie Phelan, who had previously asked me to marry him, laughed and called me bumpy head Susu. years later, when I'm in college he was working in a gas station. karma!

# funny how
all the cool people at school end up in shit jobs flipping burgers or digging ditches

and the geeks end up ruling the world

# well in Charlie's defence,
that's the only time he was mean to me, and he did end up owning the gas station/auto repair business.

...his last name looks like it's pronounced as 'felon', so you should run him over.

# you are too pleasant for me to associate with.
really, is it too much for a sociopath to ask that people just be shits constantly and reinforce a negative worldview?

# that'll teach the bastard.
ms. mason also assumed that she and i were to be married. she was sadly mistaken.

she also looked like a miniature wilma flintstone, and flirted exclusively with outcasts (me and a greek kid named george whose parents forced him to wear a suit and tie to school every day were her main targets). later, jennifer mccullough tagged me as her own, but that fizzled too when it was discovered we shared the same birthday and she resented me for having to share the limelight with me.

after them, i shunned the ladyfolk.
