Minneapolis, why must you torture us so?

Found the perfect house. Great size, cheap rent, we can afford it, two bedroom.. It's in Minneapolis, which is an assload away from where we currently are. Approximately: 1155.50 miles. Holy. Shit. But LOOK at it! D: http://www.rentals.com/Home-Rentals/Display.aspx?ListingNumber=831312

We have exactly four dollars in our savings right now, not counting my wheelchair fund (still at the same location, cough http://rynnadragonheart.weebly.com/ cough.) and the empty comission section at www.rynnadragonheart.deviantart.com . If we could afford it, and worked up enough nerve, I know we could do it. We don't have any family up there.. We'd be alone, which may actually be the better thing to do right now. Just get far away, and strike out on our own.

From what my friend Laura has said, the weather would suit us perfectly.. and from what Lukadia over at www.Lukadia.blogspot.com has said, it'd suit us just fine as a location. And bonus, we'd be close enough to bug them both, personally. xD It's just the problem of money.

As ANOTHER bonus, the MinnCare up there is supposed to be fantastic, which would assist insanely in all my health problems, and in Nates misc. injuries from Martial Arts. He could finally get treated for his arthritis/ other problems that act up in certain weather. It seems like the world points us that direction. We just need to be able to do it.

Graphite ablaze

I've been drawing like a woman possessed lately. Not sure why, though. Probably because of recent events making me even less mobile than usual. But allow me to explain that little comment.

The day before yesterday, my husband and I finally tore out our gay old built in dresser that was housing not only black widows, but also black MOLD. Yes, unlike our normal brand from the severe damage to the old piece of shit place, we found black mold, and immediately killed it. Like a man and woman possessed, we ripped the nails out of the floor and wall at 12:30 in the morning (about 5 hours before we ended up asleep, say thankya), replacing it with a four door hutch of sorts from my mothers room. It has 2-3 times the capacity in the same amount of space, and is cherry red. It brightens the room, since our clothes look deadpan when smushed together.

That done, I decided to finally put away our video games in a place we can see them: The now empty top of the closet that I cleaned out. So, arm laden with ten video game boxes, I turned.. and promptly caught my toe on something unidentified, reeled forward with my right ankle below my leg somehow, and my right wrist and double jointed thumb bending to accommodate my weight.

Nothing got broken, and nothing even bruised or swelled, or even hurt. Till today. I seem to have either badly stretched a tendon/muscle in my leg, or sprained it in an odd way. It just feels tired, and is hard to move to a degree. No numbness, tingling, or other worrysome things. It's just the arthritis and muscles spasming together.

Otherwise, the graphite ablaze thing. I started doing the PoseManiacs.com 30 second pose thing, set at 90 seconds. HOLY. CRAP. I've drawn more people in one sitting than I ever have. I get a rough skeleton down, then trot on back to it later to clean it up and give it a face. It looks AWESOME. I've been drawing like a crazy person ever since. People, animals, even a cute pair of... kitchen curtains? o.o Yes. With little cherries on them. And scalloped edges. And gingham. >>; Go figure..

Ah, yes. The charity drive is still going, at if anyone wants to look at it. http://rynnadragonheart.weebly.com/ I'm already 20.00 closer to the 600.00 than I ever was. ^-^

hey, where did all the emo go?

The few of you who read this may be wondering where all my entries went. Well, simple explination. My views of life have changed a lot since I set this up. Plans have come and gone, changed, been thrown out. I've cried, screamed, ranted, hoped, and even smiled. I just want a fresh start. So, I have decided to start this blog fresh as a married woman, and see where it leads from there.
