You are Form 9, Vampire: The Undying.
"And The Vampire was all that remained on
the blood drowned creation. She attempted to
regrow life from the dead. But as she was
about to give the breath of life, she was
consumed in the flame of The Phoenix and the
cycle began again."
Some examples of the Vampire Form are Hades (Greek)
and Isis (Egyptian).
The Vampire is associated with the concept of
death, the number 9, and the element of fire.
Her sign is the eclipsed moon.
As a member of Form 9, you are a very realistic
individual. You may be a little idealistic,
but you are very grounded and down to earth.
You realize that not everything lasts, but you
savor every minute of the good times. While
you may sometimes find yourself lonely, you
have strong ties with people that will never be
broken. Vampires are the best friends to have
because they are sensible.
Which Mythological Form Are You?

Here is... a doll I hardly take any pictures of. I took this the other day, no flash, balancing the camera on a bottle of "Liquitex Acrylic Airbrush Medium". Being too cheap for a actual camera stand or anything. No I don't have an aribrush. I just like to use that stuff to thin my paint.....
Lahahah.,
Still thinking about calling in sick tomorrow.

Been a while. Work has been hell, and I've been pretty bummed in general. Just... apathetic really. Sigh. And the fact that I am suffering from PMS doesn't help either. 9_9

I am glad it's Friday. XP
Even though my hubby wants me to go shopping with him tonight. 9_9
Am not looking forward to that. He insists he needs my opinion. How much of an opion do I need to give him on various colors of Khakis and polo-style shirts? "No honey, you already have some in the shade of blah?" +_+ Sheesh. He always gets the same styles, same colors. Cookie-cutter wardrobe, no style at all. I think he just takes me to go so I can hold stuff while he's trying clothes on. That and he's so anti-social he probably doesn't want to be seen by himself at the mall. Sigggh.
Ah well. Maybe I will be able to convince him to get a polo-style shirt in.. PURPLE! Deep, vibrant PURPLE!
Nah, it'd never happen.

Woops. Haven't posted here in a while... I've been playing Metal Dungeon for the X-box. It's an ok game, rpg style battle wise; not much plot tho. It reminds me of a spiffy game console version of Rogue or Hack, except you have a party. And of course the grapics are a zillian times better. (Does ANYONE remember those games?) There is some sort of plot going on, or at least so it says at the intro, but it doesn't matter, and doesn't come into game play at all. (At least it hasn't yet.) The real point of the game is to kill, get items and gold, and level up. And then go kill some more. Lalala.
It's good if all you want is mindless bashing and character leveling up. It sucks compared to rpgs with plots. But oh well. I had a hard time finding ANY sort of RPG for the x-box. I got some weird looks when I went into the store and asked "Are there any good RPG's for the X-box out?" One poor guy looks REAL confused and said, "Um, no... but we just got this in for the PS2..." >_< Grrrr. I want a PS2.
