Easy to fake, and messed up poorly exposed digital photos are even more fun to make. Check the new Technologhosts series if you'd like to see the world through my PCP laced eyes.

I have a feeling this isn't just going to be a temporary thing. Photography might be making a comeback for me, but who knows?

The rules:
1. Post these rules
2. Each person tagged must put 8 random facts about themselves
3. Tags should write a journal about these facts
4. At the end post 8 more bloggers are tagged and named
5. Go to their page telling them they're tagged.
-----------------------------------------------

1 - I do have a girlfriend, Meeg, and she's worth more than you could ever imagine. Anyone comes between me and her, and they can expect trouble.

2 - I got my name from sleep issues, namely insomnia.

3 - My pen & paper stuff looks the way it does because I can't be bothered to make it more realistic. Someday, but not today.

4 - Music is my drug, not anti drug.

5 - I don't really like anything, but I'm enjoying the ride anyways. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

6 - I like circus freaks and sideshows more than is reasonably healthy. If it doesn't have ten fingers and ten toes, I'll probably like it.

7 - Edgar Allan Poe, H.R. Giger, and Nine Inch Nails are my main influences in art, music, and life.

8 - Wednesday and Lenore are definite names for kids. DEFINITE.


Oh, and if you didn't catch it, upon reading this you were indeed tagged. Check the subject line. Yep see, you've been tagged. Upon clicking the link you followed, you saw the rules too. So there's no denying it. You've been tagged. Maybe you should have been more cautious, just randomly clicking links to various places on the internet. You could have been redirected to some porn site or spyware. What if you didn't have any virus protection installed? What would have happened then? Exactly. But no, you clicked anyway. Serves you right. Now you've been tagged, and there's nothing you can do about it. So ha. Post. I command you. lol

Don't know why. It just does.

Anyways, it's very early and I just figured I'd login to let you all know I'm still alive and well, as far as that goes. Artwork IS on the way, and actually it's almost ready for the scanner and my photoshopping... ness. Curse you Meeg and your ability to make me add "ness" to the end of everything. Curse you!!! lol

Alright well anyways, I have a bunch of portraits I'm working on of family, friends, and so forth, so that's... getting there. A few commissions for people too... maybe some things I've done for the band if you'd all be interested in me posting it. Some more surreal art, some more computer work, some photoshop stuff... just a lot of things that I'm working on. And by a lot I mean a lot, there's been a creative rebirth going on recently and I'm happy to be able to step it up a little more than my past art. Not that I frown on my past work though, I love all my little deformed children equally. ^_^

Well anyways, I'm running on chocolate cake and working on things as we speak, so I'm going to keep doing that and get to a tagged blog thing.

Enjoy me!

All the deviations that have the mature filter on them are NOT nudity. One of them kinda, because it went along with the theme of the picture, and I don't really think that anyone in this day and age is THAT ideologically insensitive to nudity anymore. But of course, that's me, maybe you are. In that case, don't click on "A Collector of Sorts."

Getting back to topic however, the rest are free verse poetry that I've been compiling over the past years. Finally felt the need to let some of that trapped stress out, and so now I'm posting them for everyone to enjoy.

A warning though. I do not hold back. I will make use of every word in the English language as I see fit. Not simply to make myself seem more interesting (or just generally angry), but because it's necessary. Placing a parental advisory sticker on the face of someone's voice rapes it of it's actual meaning. If it bothers you that much though, by all means I can post censored versions as well.

Well, this, that and the other are now taken care of. The Mrs. and I have a lot more work to do on our band's website, so again - sorry for the delay in real art. When you hit a dead end this hard, getting the engine running takes a while. It's coming though, I promise.

Out.

It's going to be a while before new "art" shows up. My creative side's on vacation at the moment, and won't be back for quite a while.
