Up before the alarm... [15 Jul 2009|09:42am] Last night, as i was consolidating my luggage...the power went out. My flight is at noon today, so its good that i woke up at 9. I'm almost ready for my trip...or as ready as i can be. I cant wait to see everyone and i hope i get a chance to. As i more than likely will not have internet access during my voyage, here is a brief list of places that you'll probably find me while i'm in Atlanta. that is, if you're looking for me.. Anyway, ON TO THE LIST: *Wednesday: Friends on ponce *Thursday: Mary's in East Atlanta *Friday: (hopefully) Mary's 10-11-ish Ritual @ the spot 11-12ish Bam artspace (for the skin two prepre-party) 12-1ish burkharts 1-3ish someone's house, drinking heavily and passing out in full makeup 3-?ish Saturday: the Jungle for Skin Two..where i will be emceeing. Sunday: hungover...possibly the earl for dunch and then watching true blood somewhere other than that. Monday: Leaving SO YEAH, thats my loose plan...all times and timing subject to change. See me if you see me, dont if you're lame. -DAX! 2 said something. Open your mouth.

TOTALY unprepared. [14 Jul 2009|04:33pm] i just woke up, i have things to do today that i didnt do yesterday... ugh. whatevs. i'm heading to Atlanta tomorrow and, yes, am excited, however i havent prepared AT ALL. Lets see if we can make this work now. -DAX! 2 said something. Open your mouth.

Nascar type hybrid theatrical event. [13 Jul 2009|11:33pm] Yeah...i want to learn to play guitar for one reason and i'm sure you can figure out what that is. -DAX! 2 said something. Open your mouth.

Sally Jupiter knows whats up. [13 Jul 2009|06:49am] who watches the watchmen...? Beeeeyuch! -DAX! Open your mouth.

oooohdrunk beeyutch. [13 Jul 2009|06:22am] yeah...i'm drunk as fuuk and totally watching angel reruns. the party was good. dallas isnt full of horrible people...just mostly full. i want to text certain people now because i'm drunk and was speaking highly of the earlier in the evening. i half hope that i'll see him in atlanta. and i half dont. i cut my finger while opening a bottle of tequila with a pair of scissors. its annoying more thant anything else. the moral of the story is: fun can be had...if you're willing to have it. -DAx! ((As a side note: n I am in SERIOUS need of a somewhat healthy relationship. its been far too long since i've had ANYONE in any sense of the word and i would greatly like a boy of my own. granted, it could be the gallons of tequila talking, or it could be that rare form of honesty that comes from drunkifying...all i know...i havent gotten laid since last august and havent kissed anyone who meant anything to me in even longer. Please send your resume, headshots, applications, and references to Daxclamation@gmail.com i'd love to love you if you're worth it. thank you.)) 1 said something. Open your mouth.

Clueless... [12 Jul 2009|03:29am] I think after this trip to Atlanta, i'm going to SERIOUSLY begin re-re-re-reevaluating everything. I need to get back to my roots. and maybe JUST MAYBE even my natural hair color...but probably not the latter. either way, things have to make serious changes. i've lost alot of myself along the way, this year needs to be the year that i rebuild those things and myself to make myself better. i'm tired of saying "i need to get better" and actually take more active steps to doing as such. -DAX! Open your mouth.

You Try Driving in Platforms! [12 Jul 2009|01:34am] I love "clueless". i dont own a copy and it seems that whenever i go looking for a copy, i can never find one. LUCKILY it comes on tv when i need it the most. SO, work was lame as usual...i'd go on a rant about it, but i dont want to relive the day. i got home with the intention of drawing, but havent really done anything yet. Mother has returned from mexico. I'm glad that she didnt bring me any little trinkets like she did when she got back from jamaica...(she got me this reeeeeally hideous ash tray that is a pineapple with a happy rastafarian guy's almost offensively caricatured head on it.) she cant seem to find the balance between creepy and funny that makes things good. she always ends up getting me something thats just creepy. THIS time...she came back with something we can both enjoy, TEQUILA. various kinds of tequila in various pretty bottles. later i texted back and fourth with my manager, Monica, her neices are staying with her for the weekend and they made her watch "Twilight" as well as "Repo: the genetic opera". I'd already tried to get through Twilight but it was so bad and offensive that i just couldnt. I hadnt seen Repo and hadnt heard anything about it since the hype before it was released...so i found it online and began to watch it. IT was the most horrible thing i've seen in a while! Not good horrible, HORRIBLE horrible. it was like Sondheim in fishnet....Sarah Brightman looked feirce though. everything else was way too obvious, way too cliche and that after-effects surface blur filter on EVERYTHING made me feel like i need stronger glasses. i couldnt get through the whole thing. I was very amused by Paris Hilton though and glad that Joan Jett got some camera time, despite the crap-ness of everything else. And i did decide that one day i want to live in Disney's Haunted Mansion ride with Giles from Buffy. anyway, that was my night. OH and in Horrible news...I've totally gained ten pounds. SUCK. -DAX! 4 said something. Open your mouth.

Krinkles Montgomery At your Service! [10 Jul 2009|07:57pm] So, i'm playing with new coloring techniques and just felt like posting my trial and error progress. Theres a mini-marathon of Reno 911 on and OH MY GOD..i love this show. work was lame today, as per usual. afterwards, i went to the Joann Fabrics Superstore in search of materials for my costume for skin two. somehow, i ended up with two yards of Red and White Faux fur...thats what i get for not eating all day and being loopy and then SUDDENLY inspired by the fluffy poodle-esque fabric. upon arriving home, i decided that the fabric is faaar too wintery and is the farthest thing from industrial i could have gotten. I'm kicking myself for leaving behind the red streatch lamme that i found first. I'm trying to figure a way to wardrobe my red lobster football pads without wearing the full outfit that i already made to go with them. i know i've never worn the outfit to an event or anything, but that damned catsuit gets HOT...non breathable material, covered in spray paint, covered with a corset= rhinestone encrusted sauna. anyway, i'll probably be going back tomorrow or the next day for the red lamme...this fur stuff is fun, but its probably not going to work. ANYWAY... i'm off for more coloring and then cleaning and organizing my wardrobe. -DAX! 3 said something. Open your mouth.

Who's gonna drive you home? [09 Jul 2009|10:48pm] GAAAAH! so...i'm here cleaning my apartment--or rather...TRYING to clean my apartment. Something i've been putting off for some time because when i clean, i think. and think. and think. I'm so tired of thinking. Basically, i'm twenty five--soon to be twenty six--and i'm STILL finding myself. I still dont know what to do with my life longterm or short term it doesnt matter..neither of which look any clearer than the other. UGH...i wish somebody could give me legitimate advice on anything. I wish i knew ANYONE who was any help whatso ever, but sadly just about everyone i know is in the same position as i am. and i'm fucking tired of hearing people tell me that i'll "figure it out". or "just pick any thing and stick with it". or "you'll find your place eventually" or any of that other passive-tense "soothing" word crap that doesnt help me at all. I need a therapist, a psychic, and a personal trainer and i want them all tomorrow. BUT FIRST, i need a drink. -DAX! 5 said something. Open your mouth.

Oh CannonBalls [09 Jul 2009|07:50pm] I just got home from a photoshoot. I feel like i totally dropped the ball. Hopefully there will be some shots that didnt suck. i dunno, i'm HYPER-critical of myself and UUBER detail oriented when it comes to makeup,hair, and styling. but whatev...the shoot was for a model turned photographer turned makeup artist's makeup portfolio. So, honestly, nothing was really up to me except showing up and looking fierce..which i dont think i did a very good job of. But again, whatevs. MAYBE something good came of this? in other news: I'm pissed that i have to work at 9am tomorrow because i want to go dancing. AND, also, i love flapjack ALOT. -DAX! Open your mouth.

My Ashtray heart is BURSTING with joy! [08 Jul 2009|03:32pm] Yeah, placebo just announced new tour dates... Sep 26th 2009 – House Of Blues, Dallas TX And what? wow..guess now i have to stay in dallas until then...Brian Molko really doesnt like america, and therefore the band only tours here as long as they abosolutely have to. SWEEET! I'm hella excited. -DAX! 2 said something. Open your mouth.

RADIO EDIT! [07 Jul 2009|05:51pm] X-Fluph Line-up I have more designs that i havent colored yet. i think my "Good" drawing stint is over for a second...i was trying to color the rest of them and then i just lost it. the colors just werent't working out. i was probably just tired. whatevs...this is my project for the moment. i've got alot of time off for this week and have a few other things to work on. if i find the motivation, i'll do them and of course, be posting them here. And heres a the closeup of Joseph Hyde and THE X-TINCTIONATOR: I just woke up and my back hurts and i havent bathed in quite a while...think i'm gonna go try to fix those problems now. -DAX! Open your mouth.

X-FLUPH! [04 Jul 2009|11:25pm] When The rest of the world's superheroes are mysteriously MIA...theres always... ....but i wouldnt necessarily recommend them. OMIGAWDOMIJEEZEHOLYCRAPMUTHERFUCKER i am so bored. I've been coloring ALL evening and even though i havent finished all of these character designs (as we discussed) I like to jump guns. X-men: the last stand has been on TV for the past three days...and even though i own all of the x-men movies, its just so much more convenient when they just suddenly appear on my television screen. as a result, i ended up designing propper X-men uniforms for my characters from "Fluph". GRANTED, these designs will more than likely never appear on an actual comic page because i'm the laziest "artist" ever invented. though, you know, while i was coloring i was bored UNTIL i got to the shiny shiny Highlight stage, THEN i got interested. I love coloring superhero crap because everything is so damn shiny. Anyway, i'm gonna go finish the rest of these drawings. because I HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DO. bye. -DAX! Open your mouth.

RAAGAHBLAGH! fourth. [04 Jul 2009|09:00pm] I AM SO BORED! HOLYCRAPOMIGAWDNOSHEEDIDNT?! yeah. i'm watching Xmen and coloring my character designs and I'm still bored stupid. as a result, i'm smoking my brains out....which isnt a good thing. i want to go out to appease my own boredom, but i REALLY cant spend money. i mean REALLY. its not that i dont have it, i'm just trying to save it...because i'm going to atlanta on the 14th and i need money for my trip. and also, i have to work at 1 tomorrow and thats early for me...i'm used to working around 4 or 6 so being up early enough to get to work by one pm is difficult..as i can never get to sleep before 4am. everyone i know is probably doing something right now. i deduced this due to the fact that no one's answering their phone. I hate holidays....i spend all of them just like this. BORED stupid with no one to talk to and nothing to do and ALWAYS having to work the next day. its really aggravating. Anyway, i'm gonna go now...Professor Xavier is about be de-molecularized and its probably the best shot murder scene in any movie ever. Seriously, the timing, the lighting, the soundtrack, ll of the visual chaos...UGH..it gets me every time. but then agian, patrick stewart doing just about anything always gets me. -DAX! Open your mouth.

EveryBody Do The Apocalypse Twist! [03 Jul 2009|03:20pm] F-Troop! Yeah, so i'm SUPER late for work already. I want to stay home and work on this...but i cant. Its not finished, i just like jumping guns, so here ya go. More to come later! STAY TUNED! -DAX! 2 said something. Open your mouth.

Much need drawrins [02 Jul 2009|05:04am] I spent the entire day watching X-men and Drawing. i began with "X-men: the last stand" and finished up with the first volume of the x-men cartoon from the 90's. I borrowed the boxed set from my boss and its just as great as i remembered it. i'd gladly post the drawings i did today, but sadly, my scanner is too small. I'll probably end up going to kinkos or something tomorrow and shrinking them down and then scanning em and possibly coloring if my energy level keeps up. we'll see. Aw hell, i love it, i'm gonna try to fit things together with my scanner stay tuned. -DAX! Open your mouth.

Six hours and counting. [01 Jul 2009|04:49am] So, voting for round two of drag race ends in six hours. its safe to say that i wont be making it to round three. Whatevs. it was a very interesting process and i'd still love to be on the show, but honestly, this whole online voting thing just takes too damn long. i'm not a very competitive person in all reality. i never liked sports and hate comparing myself to other people. and thats what i always do in competition. so, its probably for the better. i mean, hell, if i get some magical phone call that asks me to be on the show, you better believe i'll do it..but until then, i'm glad this whole online thing is over. anyway, if you wanna go vote again, you can. But seriously, Thanks for all you guys' support! it really means alot to me knowing that people care. -DAX! 12 said something. Open your mouth.

My New BFF [30 Jun 2009|10:16pm] I just wanna say that on "Paris Hilton's: My New BFF" the challenge is an obstacle course where the contestants have to carry a suitcase over and around obstacles while wearing 5 inch pumps. there are two guys on the show, the queer has it under control...the straight guy is being a pussy about wearing heels....as expected. all i gotta say is: And What? Oh snap...now they're climbing ropes...nevermind. GAWD my foot needs to heal. -DAX! 6 said something. Open your mouth.

Booom Boom Boom. [30 Jun 2009|09:55pm] So, i dont really have much to say. Which, for me, is very strange. the past few days, i've just been kinda blank--hell--all weekend. I cant seem to encite a response from myself to do anything. I mean, i'm broke as hell--due to some needed/unwise retail therapy. i'm stressed about work because my job really isnt working out. my student loan payment hasnt gone thru yet--which--is kinda good because as i mentioned before i'm broke as hell and the funds really arent there to begin with...but, yanno, it was supposed to have gone thru saturday and hasnt, and that kind of worries me. i dont know what my next step is yet... i've more than half given up on drag race. the process just took too long with too little encouragement and/or communication from anybody on their end to the point where i just dont trust the scenerio so i'm really not worried about it. On one hand, i feel like there are things i could do to better my chances of a response. but on the other hand, i feel like its futile. if they wanted me, they'd have known before hand and would have given some kind of feedback...they havent and they wont, so here i am. besides that, mother and i talked a little the other night and the idea of me doing "drag" really upsets her. it always has. even though, what i do isnt necessarily "drag" in the traditional sense...i mean, she's seen most if not all of my outfits. she knows that i'm not wearing boobs and pretending to be a lady. she asks me for makeup/hair advice, she always takes my opinion on shoes and handbags and clothes...she's cool with me wearing dumb clothes as long as nobody really notices. but it still makes her uncomfortable. it always has and i dont really know why. she doesnt really articulate her feelings too well, she never has, she just feels a certian way, expresses that and in conversation, finds it EXTREMELY difficult to discuss to the point of a break-through as to why a certian thing makes her feel a certian way. she's not really a sappy, squishy, hyper-emotional kind of person. she's business. and also, since ive gotten back from new york, i've noticed that i lost flexibility in my big toe on my left foot. on my last night in New York, i fell up the stairs in geoffrey's apartment building and i hurt my knee and my foot. i didnt think much of it at the time--i'm always hurting myself in random ways. Until last week, when i was getting ready for a party and i put on my favorite heels did i realize i had a problem. i got my feet into the boots but as soon as i put my left foot down, it hurt like the devil. it was difficult bending my foot into position at first, but it happened, it was just alittle stiff feeling. and putting weight on it was IMPOSSIBLE. i had to, instead, settle for some flat platforms... I'm kinda freaked out because...well..I love my heels. even though they make me impossibly tall, i love them. i talked to my aunt, who is a doctor, and she said that i might have slightly fractured my toe...which is fully possible, i did fall pretty hard. i'm really just hoping its healed enough to wear heels for skin two. anyway, thats whats been up. i should be working on things right now, but i dont really want to do anything in particular. -DAX! 2 said something. Open your mouth.

Tony Montana Would Be Pissed! [27 Jun 2009|03:57pm] Cherri Bomb Version 2.0 I've kinda slowed down with this whole logo project, i got kindof sidetracked. I mean just working and being too tired to want to look at a computer screen and all. But whatev. I like what i've done thusfar, and whatever happens, i have alot of samples for my portfolio....as if that'll ever matter. Anyway, i should be getting ready for work, but instead, i'm here watching comedy central. I'm hungover and all i want to do is lay around watching bad movies on cable tee vee and eat chinese food. BUT NOES! i have to go to work. OH...and thanks to last nite, and alot of personal impulse control issues, i am now broke. but then again...i'm always broke. SWEEET "Cant Hardly Wait" is on. Now i REALLY dont want to go to work. -DAX! Open your mouth.
