Some Days I Don't Want to Think of a Blog Title

Blog titles, or the titles of anything, really, can be a pain to make up. I am one of those people who normally likes to title things, even things that don't need titles, like my shoes or my breakfast ritual. But other days, it just seems like too much to ask. This is one of those days.

This past weekend, on Saturday, my boyfriend and I drove through Indiana the diagonal way to get near Chicago, where we were scheduled to get another ferret. Yes, now we have two. Huxley and Sweetpea. They are made of supercute. However, it has surprised me to find that having two ferrets is twice as exhausting as just having one. And the litter and the food seems to be being used up at twice the speed. My, my.

This means that I shall have to be selling things a bit more around here. Does anyone want to pay me like $30 to make a small, cheap-to-mail painting for them? Or a more expensive, larger painting? Or anything you have in mind, really. I still have two 16x20 inch paintings that I forgot to sell. One is of the clown, Mrs. Mutters' Son, standing in a puddle looking dazed. The other has a bright neon pink background and is of the Vampire Puppet attacking the girl's legs shouting "I NEED BLOOD" or whatever. I'd let those go for like $50 since they are actually quite large. ANY TAKERS? If you are all too poor to be able to afford any little joy like that, ask rich relatives or friends to purchase them for your birthday or whatever. There are ways around poverty.

As for site-related things to say, it's been kind of boring around here. Mark is on vacation somewhere and XV is out of commission because of some computer worm that literally ate his computer somehow. Hopefully he'll be back in this internet world this week sometime. Jeremy has been.. well.. Jeremy. Which means he has been "being bored" and "working on store a little" and "running the fuck away from tornadoes." Trev has been busy as usual. And I have been playing with ferrets and painting.

Oh! I may have an article idea that I should complete and deliver to Jeremy by the end of the week. I think I am going to do a Travel Guide style review of the entire state of Indiana. Because it is my opinion that when you have seen one mile of Indiana interstate highway, you have pretty much seen it all.

I haven't written a frank and honest review on anything in a good long while. So this should be fun.

Heh, yeah. It's really stupid now. I don't like that they make you write titles now. I'm lucky I still have a blog leftover from when you didn't have to enter titles.

Well, to be fair, blogs are kinda stupid anyway. Which is apparently exactly why Jeremy thought it would be awesome to make us keep them.

Aww. And that makes all of the toil of blogging okay by me, I guess.
