1.20.06/13:49 somewhere between 26 and 17 Sorry I haven't updated in a little while, I've been a little...preoccupied. You could look at the picture below and take it as another example of bad, bad fan art, but it's actually a study to see what pose and composition I want to use for the poster, not an example of me trying hard to appear artistic. Not that I have to try or am not conceited.
The format for this month so far has been, in case you haven't noticed, comic-post-comic. I didn't have a comic for today, so I used the sketch to stay more or less true to the formula. Maybe Monday I will have one done, but who knows what will happen between now and then. 1.20.06/13:48 prelim poster sketch
1.15.06/17:34 sunday day is every day So I wrote a new short story. A really short piece I don't know what to think of yet, kind of a departure from the dark and gritty stories I'm used to writing, but I'm just testing the waters in this class and I don't want to start off too strong. Maybe the next story will have more midgets.

As the header indicates, today was a good day for Pittsburgh. I don't profess to be a big fan, but I do like watching the games sometimes and the effect it has on the city's mood is tremendous. They seem to be really emotionally invested.
And I got Hellsing today, the whole series for just 10 bucks more than my gift card was for. This weird old guy was standing next to me in the checkout line telling me about how good it is. I know how good it is-- That's why I bought it! I'm pretty excited about that, and I think I might overload my system with vampire mythology in the next few weeks, but that's okay. Being a vampire is the next best thing after being a mighty viking. The real ones, not the team. 1.13.06/04:30 noise complaint
1.13.06/04:12 paper cuts? they never heal. I'd often like to believe I'm making progress in dealing with the things that give me the most emotional distress, but I've noticed that they just come back again and again in cycles, in scenes that repeat themselves with different actors. I think back to the last time I was in a comparable situation and try to remember my lines, but I'm always lacking in the delivery.

That's something I was tooling around with yesterday. Probably singing and smoking a pack of cigarettes a day is not going to help me get better any sooner, but I'm loath to accept that. Grandma keeps telling me I have pneumonia and that she's going to drag me to the doctor.
That'd be a neat trick.
And I lost at Scrabble. Statistically, it was bound to happen sooner or later, but I just didn't think it would occur so early in my life. I guess it was naive of me to think my good luck would last forever. Here's a haiku:
grins much like a cat crushed up candy necklaces lets me win at cards
Perhaps the next post will be in better fonts and spirits, desu ne? Also, I highly recommend Hostel, probably one of the better horror films I've seen in quite the long time. If you have seen it, all I can say is: SPRING BREAK BRATISLAVIA!! 1.9.06/10:15 treehouse blues
1.8.06/08:16 tales of depravity So Jesse finally got laid again. I only bring this up to mention the most important aspect of the lurid story he told me: the girl broke one of her teeth. And also she was 35. How do you break a tooth during sex? Either my understanding of what sex consists of is severely limited, or something dramatic was going on. Either way, kudos to you, Jesse!
And I came up with some new dirty haikus the other day. I don't feel like doing another contest or anything, but feel free to send your own and I will very likely post them. As most of you know, I'm a big fan of the dirty haiku genre.
kiku o akete dochi de mo ii desu moshi nureta
open your flower either one's okay with me as long as it's wet
Desu counts as 2 moras, even though it's usually pronounced as one. Also, kiku has a meaning in slang that's marginally different but derived from 'flower,' and that also works in this poem. If you ask me nicely I'll tell you what it is.
split you like a pea maybe you don't taste as bad maybe it's not green
Blah. And if you can't tell from the text and header color, I'm sick. For some reason I thought the label read 'every 2 hours as needed,' but actually it's 'no more than four times per day.' That's a big difference if you're like me and don't sleep for more than 3 hours. I suppose that would explain why the paint on the walls looks like it's melting. Also--
I met a cute lesbian the other day outside one of my classes. I don't know her name, so I think I'm going to call her 'lesbian hat girl.' Since it was a rainbow hat, that could mean 'girl with lesbian hat' or 'lesbian girl wearing a hat.' She was cute, but I don't think she's into me. Within two minutes of meeting her, she went on to tell me about a 3-some she had on New Year's Eve. The good kind of 3-some, 2 to 1.
Everyone is so lucky and promiscuous! Bastards.
As for my prospects, at the time of writing this I hear a weird voice outside my window and investigate it to find a black cat pawing at my front door. That can't be a good omen. And I'm probably going to have to divorce Mari-chan. Unless she surprises me with a good birthday present.
That's the 23rd, in case you want to get me something. As the tone of this post indicates, sex counts as a present. If you've got anything swinging between your legs, you should consider CDs or Best Buy gift cards instead. If you don't know what to get me, you could just send your dirty haikus to jbaugher@rocketmail.com and that would be a good present too. 1.6.06/08:56 nissa's note
1.5.06/22:39 the east and the west Does anybody else remember that scene in FF6 when Celes has to sing in the opera? Me neither. I spent a few minutes today trying to tab out the melody from that because it was stuck in my head. Nothing much, just a few measures, but it was something to do. Here's how it goes, if you're interested:
e----------------2--0-2-3-3-2-0------------------------------------------- B-0-2-3----0-2-3----------------3--3-3-1-0-1--1-1----------------------0-- G-------0-----------------------------------------4-3-4--4-4-4-2-0-2-0---- D------------------------------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
And I don't know. I've been making comics like mad, and I've got 5 or 6 drawn that I can't even begin to computerize yet, but I'm sure I will at some point. Oh, and if you want to hear what that tab above sounds like acoustically, here you go:

Don't get used to this increased level of productivity, I'm sure it's just a fluke in the time-space continuum and won't be maintained very much longer. Probably as soon as I start classes tomorrow I will drift back into my scholastic stupor. 1.4.06/20:40 wyvern droppings

[jason barker-andante religioso]
There's another one of the tracks Jason recorded while he was here. I forget who wrote it, but it's pretty sweet. That kid rocks to the max.
And as you can tell, there's a new comic up. Daikon Warrior Series II is in full swing. You could think of it as a the sequel to the first series. And that picture is either me as a sprite or Clyde being me for Halloween. Either way, it's a frightening prospect with far-reaching implications.
Also, my winter break literati record is impeccable. I'm 7-0, if you don't count that unrated game that I lost so shamefully, which I don't because yahoo doesn't and that's what matters. Here's something to consider: they say apocalypse is coming. However, they say a lot of things. They say apocalypse is coming. 01.01.06/00:01 akemashite omedetou gozaimasu!

And winter break is
drawing to a close. I finally beat Dragon Quest, and maybe I can
focus on something else now. It only took me 70+ hours to stumble
through the game. Keiko-sensei found me a class for my schedule, and
