Beeks' Place! Beeks' Place!

Yes! It has been nearly a month since my last post, and I have managed to grill both hot dogs AND boca burgers in this time period. Oh, and s'mores! The grill is a bit of a challenge--er, maybe it's just me--but a lot of lighter fluid was used in that tiny grill! FIRE!!! At some point I felt insignificant because my neighbor down below was grilling simultaneously on his much larger grill, but that feeling soon waned because I like smaller versions of things (like snack sized candy bars as opposed to king sized; miniature anything) and therefore think my grill is much more fun.

Some UPDATES:

• I have felt like poop more than once this month
  
• I have pooped more than once this month
  
• I played with both kitties and puppies at the Humane Society this month. One cat was the size of a beach ball!
  
• I have been surviving on $1 Tortino's pizzas and hotdogs
  
• At some point, I intend to start my next painting project!
  
• I watched Evil Dead this month, and feel like watching Evil Dead 2 tonight!
  
• I REALLY want to go shopping!
  

And I saw a RAINBOW yesterday! It was more like a rainbow stump because it didn't go very high. Not even an arch!

I like the new cat on my blog--or is it a mink?? Someday I would like to make my own custom style sheet, but if I can't even figure out Photoshop then I think it would be hard for me to make my own style sheet. SOMEDAY.

Looks like those lucky enough to be attending the Game Developers Conference this March are in for one heck of a time! Not only is Shigeru Miyamoto delivering a keynote, the conference is also hosting two other events that I'd give my big toe to see--an i am 8-bit preview exhibit and a Video Games Live concert! i am 8-bit exploded into the art scene with hundreds of artists rendering their dearest 8-bit gaming memories in paintings, sculptures, plushies, and more! And now it's happening all over again, making an exclusive debut at the GDC! AND I CAN'T BE THERE!

Some of you may remember purchasing concert tickets to the Video Games Live concert tour last fall, only to have your hopes and dreams squelched when nearly every show was suddenly canceled (I sequestered myself in my room with nothing but a box of tissues and a package of Oreos when the Kansas City show got the axe). The GDC is offering a chance to see this event in all its glory--I mean, there's going to be a freaking pre-show and post-show party!! The pre-show event includes a costume contest, which I remember being most excited about for the *canceled* KC show (I was going to be Sheena from Tales of Symphonia!). Perhaps I can audition to play in the orchestra (I play the timpani and the xylophone!). Then I'd get to go!

Anyway--I'd like to ask anyone who bought a pass to the GDC to take me along, too. I'm small and compact, so I can fit in those tiny rolly-suitcases executives cart everywhere. Please consider!
