Men are gross.

I was stared at for a good 30 seconds by two Hispanic guys in a stopped car while I was standing at the bus stop. It was completely disgusting, and before someone pulls the raciest card, I'm just as grossed out when white or black or asian guys do it as well. The whole thing has worked me up into some kind of feminist rage. Yuck. I wish I could get the looks on their sweaty tan faces out of my head.

Oh and btw, if anyone is thinking that I was "asking for it", first of all you're a dumb ass to think that there is any time it's ok to objectify a woman, and second I was standing at a bus stop, wearing jean, a t-shirt, and a frumpy brown sweater. I don't wear clown makeup, and wear my hair in small pigtails to keep it off my neck. OMG so sexy, let's all treat Aimee like a piece of meat.

I wish I could be more articulate about this, but basically men suck and I hate you all. Now I'm going to go feel gross and scrub my skin off.

Why I'm Not Blogging, or Doing Anything Else Productive

I'm obsessed with my Nintendo DS. This is my excuse for everything, and I'm sorry. I have a homebrew chip for it, and now I've got an entire world of games and random things I can do with this. So yes, silence.

Also, Tyler has a blog to record his progress working on rebuilding a robot arm. It's pretty technical but he does a good job of explaining things in plain-ish English.

Presenting: Mechan o Blog!

Bang Bang



Banged this out in about and hour to see how photoshop would respond. It did ok, a little sluggish, but not so slow that I feel the need to shell out money I don't have on CS3. There are so many amazing things you can do with a computer, and I do this? Practice Practice Practice.

Kinako Pancakes



I made these kinako pancakes today, but alter the recipe a little bit since I didn't have yogurt or buttermilk. I used a cup of milk, and they ended up a little dry. I've made them before following the recipe exactly, and they are much moister and fluffier, it's worth the yogurt. I do highly recommend these. Kinako is probably foreign to most people, but it's not a scary food. I'd compare the flavor to a nut butter and it smells a little sweet. Anyway, it's good and you shouldn't be scared.

Also the last pancake was a monster.

It's hard to think of titles for updates like this.



Starting the painting. I moved some stuff around a bit, so it was more of falling position and less of a OMG so windy I'm getting blown around. Legs haven't changed much so i just cropped them out. I'm thinking about taking this into an Alice in Wonderland direction, or maybe the opposite of that... conflicted. Anyway, this has been really fun so far (which is the point!) and I hope I can get photoshop at home soon. Also, I'd like to thank Paris Hilton for providing the skin tones. Hot damn these sentences where pointless and distracting from the real point of this post.



Found this at the bottom of a folder, I think I posted a detail, but this is how far I got before giving up.

All About the A-R-T.



I seem to be on a big art kick these days, which is good since it seems to be the only thing I'm passionate about. Here's a look at something I'm working on at work in my down time.

More Art?



Dicking around in Photoshop during my downtime at work, so much better then Oekaki. See it full sized here, be warned it's pretty big and full of empty white space. I need to draw more.
