Santa, I’ve Been Naughty

Filed under Uncategorized //

Shame on Jillian.

So today I go into work, but I have to commute to work because now I’m back at home, right?

Either way - I pull into a Faculty-Staff Only parking lot, knowing full well that I don’t have a permit to park there and it is a 15 dollar fine if they catch me. So I pull in and look for a nice open one. I spot one, dead ahead, in front of a Gold Toyota - it’s really shiny, brand new!

I get out of my car, just saying “Screw It” because I don’t care at this point if I get a ticket or not. There is literally nowhere else around campus to park where I know I won’t either 1. Get a Ticket or 2. Be Towed. I look to the Gold Toyota, and I notice that they too do not have a parking permit in their window.

And they have a ticket. It’s tucked ever-so-neatly under their windshield wiper.

So, Naughty Jillian goes over to the car and retrieves their snow-and-ice encrusted ticket from their windshield (I made sure no one else was around) and put it on my car, under my windshield wiper.

Now at this point, you can still see the outline of where the ticket was on the gold Toyota - apparently it had snowed since the “Parking Police” came around to the cars to ticket everyone in the first place. So I gently dust off the outline from this poor persons’ car to make it look like they never had a ticket.

What’s even funnier is: I didn’t get a ticket! :-)

Another Funny Part: They received another ticket!

Naughty Jillian.

And I’m going to keep the ticket to use it next week when I have to commute into work. Those poor people - two tickets on their record - this one probably won’t be paid for awhile, considering I still have it. :-)

What’s funny is to look at it because although it is the right date and time - it is the wrong car type, wrong color, and wrong license plate. But the right 15-dollar-no-permit-displayed problem checked on the ticket.

Oh good times.

Shame on me. ;-)

Current Mood: Artistic

Filed under Uncategorized //

Even though I had a previous post about the “Current Mood” things on Live Journal, I always found the smiley for this particular mood rather cute. It always shows up on my friends’ LiveJournal, and I think it is really adorable!

Either way, I thought I would share with you my pretty photoshop drawing that I did. I think it’s pretty anyways. :-)

I currently have the ‘better one’ as my background - You can view and download that here: Welcome Winter. I am learning about Photoshop, as you can tell by my pretty picture. It was all hand-made too.

And now back to what I can actually draw…

Isn’t he cuteeee?? This one I drew over Thanksgiving Break. I know his hands look a little “blocky”, but that is because this is the first time I have drawn someone with their hands clutched in front of them. I can’t really picture what that looks like so wha-la, instant-bad-drawing for the first time. ;-)

I thought Odie looked VERY dashing in the clipart I drew him from. No, I don’t trace of anything of that sort - That’s cheating!!! Instead I just bring the small clipart up on screen and then draw the Garfield people by looking at the clipart - that’s it!

Odie isn’t quite done yet either - I still have to color him in!

Yeah I know this is probably hard to see because it is just a pencil drawing - I haven’t even gotten around to tracing him with a black colored pencil yet! Oh well, he looks okay so far. I just don’t like how his hand bends down behind his outstretched leg - it looks a little too bent, like it shouldn’t be that way or something. Oh well I’ll fix it later.

Oh yes and finals - Today I just had two finals, one this morning at 7:50AM (That was Statistics, whoo!) and then the second at 1PM. So now I’m done! I’ll save it for another entry why I don’t have one tomorrow…that’s quite a story!

Hope you enjoyed these - now I need to go and finish Odie! :-)
