Ghetto words/art

Guys. Someone should slap me.

Because I swear, if I heard anyone say any of the following out loud, I would want to slap them.

But seriously.

"Wut da hayell" = "What the hell" and "Errthang/boday" = "Everything/body"  Is probably uttered from my mouth at least once a day.  Last time I checked, although brown, I'm not black.  My mouth needs to stop having these slip ups.

Also, I forgot to mention in my last post that I now have a quasi-job.  My dad has this teleseminar coaching thing going on and recently his tech guy quit on him so I am now the replacement because my dad was like, "You like messing around with coding. Here, run our website. "  The job isn't hard, it's just tedious and time consuming because I'm pretty much just taking care of the website, fixing any glitches, setting up links and downloads, creating new events and pages... You know. Typical webmaster type stuff.  My dad and his business partner said that they would pay me for all the work I've done, but I made sure that I stressed to them that I'm not a trained professional.

I mean, guys. In middle school I watched the movie Hackers (Jonny Lee Miller still makes me swoon) and went through this phase where I actively sought out learning hacks and coding, but much like my anime phase, it sort of fizzled out.

But yeah.  I'm not going to complain about getting money.  The only thing that stresses me out is when there's a live event going on and I have to make sure everything is posted IMMEDIATELY after the event is over, meaning that I have really odd 'work' hours. Luckily, my hours are 100% flexible and my boss also happens to be my dad.

Another thing I forgot to post about was the fact that I added more things to my Etsy shop!
Dalek/kitten cards

Hedwig inspired chain scarf

Fanart for the movie My Blueberry Nights
Random tea cup painting

So yeah.  I sold another wand yesterday, and I'm really excited about making it because the buyer requested that the handle look like a wolf, so it was definitely a fun thing to design.  I'll post pictures when I'm done with it.

Also, this entire week I've been following the Blogger Family Reunion--- I AM SO GOING NEXT YEAR. I don't care if I have something important going on, I WILL RESCHEDULE. I can't wait for my shirt to come in the mail... I'll wear it with pride and know that I was there in spirit, sort of, because I did so much Facebook stalking.  To everyone that went: I'm glad you guys had fun! :)

  1. I think being brown you can get away with it. When you're as white as milk, it gets a bit much. Either way I hope the job doesn't interfere too much with your training, but I think if it did your dad wouldn't let you do it. The pictures didn't show up :( But I like the sound of anything that is either, or combines, Daleks and kittens.

      I think if you click on the caption below, it will take you to the listing...

  2. Love the dalek/kitten card! I suppose saying those words isn't so bad if you're brown. But what really bugs me is when people who are not blonde who pretend to be dizzy blondes. Ughh... x

  3. I'm not a Whovian, but that Dalek is really cute.

    Congrats on having a job! Stephen does a lot of coding (and fixing/updating software) too. Pretty sure he's not being monetarily compensated because the bulk of it is for his mom's business. I wish I was even remotely tech savvy.

    I'm glad to hear your Etsy shop is going well! :)

    P.S. How do I configure my blog to allow me to reply to comments? I think I had accidentally set it up so it would but then I didn't like it and got rid of it. So if you help me I'd appreciate it, haha.
