well, so much for no piccies....
heya folks. glad everyone enjoyed my mecha pictures. ^^ sorry to have to do this to ya (especially Shireishou-chan) but i got a whole bunch more piccies today. luckily they are really really small ones, so they should load pretty quick.



but onwards. this week i didnt do much (again). i really gotta pull my finger out and get to do stuff.

like i guessed, the snow pretty much disappeared after the second day. i very much doubt i'll much, if any, again this year.
i made my eva-00 model, but it still needs a few finishing touches. i've almost finished inking my 6 page Gundam manga, so i'll try to upload that soon.

yesterday i was probably the busiest. first off i drove to Swanley to put Luna in for her service. i dropped her off at 9am, and the guy said they should be finished at midday, so i walked into Swanley proper and pulled what i like to call the "Tennessee Manouvre", that is to say, i went in the library and read their books for three hours. i read some quite interesting materials whilst i was there too. ^^

why "Tennessee Manouvre"? well, i was gonna call it the "Chrissy Manouvre" but that sounded dirty, and besides, i know several people from that state who would happily sit and read for a few hours... ^^

anyways, after they had serviced Luna, i picked her up. and DAMN, did i notice the difference. they really tuned her up, and her response times o her breaks and throttle are better then they were before hand. they also cleaned her up and replaced her oil. its a great sensation to ride her. ^^


when i got home i had a package waiting for me. and, shock horror, it wasnt a Gundam model. XD
it was some bits i had ordered off of Motorola to add to Jess-chan, my mobile phone. i got a spare battery, for when the current one dies, and i got some software called "Mobile Tools" which allows me to plug Jess-chan, my phone into Midori, my laptop and do nifty things with the two of them.

Primarily, i bought the software so i could upload the pics from the camera on Jess-chan to Midori so i could show you guys (see below) but all the other stuff is jus as cool. i can download pictures, vidoes and music from one to the other, and edit them so they dont take up too much space, i can use my mobile as a modem (though that costs a hella lot), i can use Midori to send text messages (should i ever want to), i can synchronise dates and phone numbers between the two (dont know if that really means anything)...it great stuff. ^^
i have now edited it so that my phone has Rei Ayanami for a BG picture (ph34r my rei obsession) and even better, my ring tone is now the chorus from "Changin", which is the GetBackers 4th Ending theme. ^^ and whenever i get a text message, the alert tone is the last phrase from "Najica Blitz Tactics" OP theme. that may mean nothing to alot of you, but that is the coolest thing in the world to me. ^^

so yah, i have had a lot of phone with my new toys. XD now i am going to show you the pics i have taken with my phone. some of these are quite old...(alt text rules apply)

Starting at the beginning, these are from when i went to new york in the summer of 2005
