Super Busy Times!

Been so long since I posted, but here we go never the less! I've been up to no good as usual. Got to manage our editing team at work for a time while the existing one was on a nice little vacation down south. Works went slow and I was loving it with a few extra days off a month.

What else, hmmm... oh! I'm working on rejoining the SCA. I used to love this group, putting on tons of armor and hitting people with clubs capable of breaking and shattering bones. I'm already rebuilding my arsenal and then it is on to recollecting my pieces of armor, already got the helm.

Been hitting the bar as well as growing my garden! Well I should be sleeping so I'm going to try to get some Z's before I have to go to work.

Hole In My Pockets

So I keep trying to save up to do extraordinary things to my home but something always seems to get in the way. I guess that's just how things are going to be for awhile. It somehow leaves me with the feeling like I'm just leaving my money out and someone is taking it or I'm just being straight up robbed. I mean I work all week, paycheck comes in, and then instantly I'm broke again. Well at least I can still afford to serve up a bit of a diet. That's right, fast food be gone. Time to slim down a bit, hope I don't get all grumpy like last time I tried to lose weight. I tend to be all mean because I'm trying to do it with no support and being a little teased. Well and when I'm teased I return it hundred fold. Just gotta remain calm and not eat grease.

A New Sale

I haven't had one on SL, in a long while. So I was pretty stoked to see this when I woke up...
"2011-06-07 22:26:49 - SnS Vendor Tampica - Rheannon(27, 130, 3000) - [SnS]Mowgli - Scayla Silvercloud (77405395-710b-4fa3-9049-

New Shorts!

Things have been going not so bad around the old manor here. Found out I have more money than I thought after buying a new fridge. That gives me a head start on new home repair projects funds. Bought some new Tripp shorts, they're nice and green and plaid. Super comfortable too, might need to get a couple more pair as I love the roomy fit of Tripp pants. I have about 4 pair or so, all pretty unique from one to the next. Anyways, it has been awhile since I posted up on here. Lets see, what else is new. I've been getting on Second Life a bit more since my main partner in crime for League of Legends is swearing it off for awhile. I've been definitely playing a bunch of Minecraft too. Oh and how could I forget my little adventure this last Friday night filled with drunken times partnered with plenty of debauchery. We had a bunch of "Surfer on Acids", played with some friendly dancers, and then went to Denny's and nom'd down tons of grub and then called it a night. So things are definitely pretty good I'd say around here. I hope all is well for whomever stumbles upon my little blog here as well.

Hanging with Co-op

I remember when I was a young lad, almost every game had co-op play. It was just expected to be there. ME and my pal down the street, we'd co-op the shit out of everything we could. Then all of a sudden all the new games were coming out that we wanted to play but they didn't have co-op mode. More and more the games stopped with the co-op support. This made us very sad gamers. So now when a game is out that's awesome and has co-op, we're all over it like a couple of rabid hyenas usually. This is just how bad we miss game designers putting in a little extra forces so we can join together instead of going head to head. Some might think I'm being a little ranty, but I'm just trying to rave about co-op games.

Devious Schemes

So with my new income, I'm looking at helping out repairing the house, paying bills, and possibly improving a few things. We got a fence that looks like it's need dire replacement since the 50's. I mean the 1850's! Anyways, I keep finding myself trying to wrap my head around some kind of home expansion designs and prices as well. I know its a few years off but I do like to have things in mind so I have some motivation that's a bit more clear. Maybe insulate and sound proof the garage. Guns, knives, traps, all of them are great. Looking to also possibly expand my arsenal. Never know when those zombies are going to break in here. Only kidding, but I do have a fascination for all kinds of weapons. Other than all that, I'm still sick so all I can do is rest and hope I get over whatever the hell I'm sick with. My "To Do" list just keeps getting bigger n bigger.

20 years and still

Today is one of my oldest n closest friends' birthday. It turns 27 which puts us being friends for around a bit over 20 years now. We're practically family at this point. He's always been a stand up kinda guy and done the right thing for the most part. So he definitely deserves to enjoy his day of birth and much much more. Also here's a character from one of his favorite video games, Dragon Quest series. "Happy Fucking Birthday, Birthday boy, Birthday girl. Combichrist evil nice."

Still Infected... Still!

So another weekend comes. Ah, time to relax. Also, I've gotten faster at work, just in time to keep from prolly being on my way to the unemployment line. I'm not ready to go just yet! Not until I have enough for a new car. The old Ranger is getting pretty past its time. time for a new car asap.

The thing that sucks is I'm still coughing. I hope to be rid of it by weekend's end. Lots of sleep, a bit of side project work, and some good time with friends are planned. I hope, I mean really really hope, to get time in for a tattoo. That would be perfect. What else is there to say? Oh yeah, good night and/or morning.

That's No Moon

 

As the work week comes to a close. St Patty's Day mayhem finally winding down for the people who party far longer than others. I'm still sick and getting upset over some stupid drama. I take a big sigh of relief in getting the the chance to see a bigger and brighter moon this weekend. I plan on sleeping a plenty this weekend in hoping it will hasten my recovery.

Hack Cough Weeze

I am sick as hell, that is all.

The Freshest Freshness

So just as I start this blog going I've gotten a job now where I'm not around so much. posts might become weekly instead of sporadic posts all throughout the week (yeah I learned that word from Clueless.); and I just wanted to let anyone who stumbles upon this to know that. The job is a photo editor for a clothing re-distributor for anyone that's curious or wishing to stalk me.

I've been challenged to a duel in Gor so we'll see how that pans out, I'm not on much anymore to do much of anything on there, maybe when I get some more free time.  Got a lot to do when I do get around to it on there as well. Really looking forward to the weekend to maybe get some fun time in.

Can't think of much of anything else to say. Brain is undead, here's a picture of a beach I took some years ago. Enjoy.

At a Later Date

I'm trying to space out my post so I'm not ranting and raving so often. Seeing how that works out for me. Listening to some internet radio at the moment with The Dark Crystal playing. I couldn't think of some old movies that would be on Netflix that I haven't seen that I really want to watch again. This one popped up so I'm watching it. I've been in some stale moods lately, visiting friends seems to stop it though. So I think I'll keep bugging them.

I wish I woke up to a rain of blood, instead I woke up to the news I lost the T-shirt contest to an inferior piece. I really want to sit here and talk crap, but instead I'll just shout a congrats to the winner. Next time I'll go with something more simple I guess. On the brighter side. Jagermeister liked my work for the band, Kaustik (seen up there on the left). Also I got a job interview at the place I've wanted to work for years. Here's to hoping I get hired!

Been on Second Life a whole bunches lately. Role playing little, building much. I just this moment realized I need to finish up one of my projects within the next few hours so I'll probably be doing that up until a city meeting later on in the city of Tampica, where I reside in Gor role play. So I guess that's it for now, I'm a bit down for now, so hopefully that changes by my next post.

Completion Makes The Heart Grow Fonder

It is... 5:24am and I've gotten a couple of my projects done. Feels so great to get things finished. Also! upon finishing the shirt, I'm thinking about launching into making such kinds of designs for Second Life. Among the other 30 projects I have for Second Life still yet to do. I also think I'm doing good on sleep right now, at least my body feels half decent (until I walk into the kitchen and see the mess in there).

Also! in Second Life, since I've been spending a large amount of my time between there and Minecraft, I purchased an "@HOME" television and loaded it up with "The Lonely Island" music videos from youtube. Which are great to cheer me up on those chaotic days. On top of that, I'm thinking of remodeling my skybox in Second Life to look like an actual home. I've always liked my little building studio of doom.

And now for something completely different. I've gone back and watched Spartacus: Blood and Sand again as I'm super excited when ever I get to see a new episode from Spartacus: Gods of the Arena. And after watching all of both they have to watch on Netflix. I've noticed they really seem to say the line, "Cock from Ass" a whole hell of a bunches. As in, "Finally the god remove cock from ass" or, "he must remove cock from ass if he wishes to live to see the Primus". It is no hindrance to the awesomeness that is the show, but it is quite funny to just hear that line so much. Romans must really like their anal and ass play.

P.S. the kanji on the shirt says "desire color", felt appropriate for a printing company shirt.

Stress & Other Heavy Weights

No one stresses one self out quite like family. Partnered with other oh so fun things like deadlines and especially when their all around the same time seem to love each others' company, so much it resembles trouble in a mask. Whoa, I think I've been watching too many movies set in ancient Greece n Rome. Lack of sleep also aids in this stress of mine. I play more social than suits me normally, and yes I'm going to keep speaking oddly this time around.

As I go on with a shirt format I'm remaking for the 12th time, this time I feel confident my design will be the winner in the contest its made to enter. The album cover finally decided upon, I only need simply to tweak some things and rebuild it to do such. Working on a new DnD campaign as well. Gonna lead a group of goblins to glory or doom. I've not decided. I'm writing out each also so that I don't forget them. I stress out way more than I should and up forgetting what it is I'm doing. What was I saying again? Oh well, it'll come to me as I work work work and then some more work.

Starting Out

 So I've just launched this blog to kind of get things off my chest and out of my head. Haven't blogged since I was posting tidbits at downloadablesuicide.com, and I hope to keep this up a bit better than I had there. So a bit about me...

I'm Greg Kline, most of my friends call me Noct, Nacht, or some variation on either. That's probably one of the only times I'll say my real name on here. That's me in the picture up there! I'm a digital artist and photo editor in Southern California. I listen to a lot of metal/goth/industrial; I'm also big on classic rock although my favorite band is Sublime, we'll get to as why at some point in this blog series. I play a lot of PC games, I'm a geek, I play and DM Dungeons&Dragons, play magic the gathering. So I definitely love role playing games, fantasy is my favorite setting for a game or any book I read. I only follow 2 comics really, both by Robert Kirkman, which are "the walking dead" and "invincible".

I'm a huge fan of second life. It's there that I can be myself more than anywhere else. I can build and sell my creations. I get to role play in a dozen different settings, make new friends to hang out with, and go out and do the impossible. I run my own store on there known as The Schwag and Swagger. A fantasy items shop with a rather miscellaneous altogether stock. I play a bit of "Gor" on there. No I'm not "Gorean lifestyle", I just love the setting for role play. I'll probably have several a post about second life on here.

I pretty much grew up in So Cal. Born and raised here, been out of the country only a few times in my life been out of the state a whole bunch. I made the mistake of going out of state for college. I went to a trade school even in Arizona. I'm always in and out of some minimum wage job. I really am always on the look out for an opening at revolve clothing's photo editing department. I have a few friends working there right now, and I know I could bring some new blood and help catch things up in a pinch there, but oh well, here's to hoping to get my dream job.

Anyways, I think that's enough of a bio on me for now. I'm going to mess with the tools on this things and see what it is this thing can really do. Take it easy.
