Connecticon 2010

Sorry this is up so late, but Connecticon 2010 was pretty fun! My friend and I went only on Sunday, but we still had a lot of fun. I didn't get many pictures, which my friend is still kicking my butt over, but I did get this video.



In other news, I will be either uploading here, or on a webcomic hosting site a neat little CYOA game I've been playing on the Adult Swim message boards. If you want in on this before the game is over, I suggest you go to http://boards.adultswim.com/t5/Incoherent-Babbling/You-find-yourself-trapped-in-a-room/td-p/55479147 STAT!

Nothing New

Nothing much has been going on lately. I'm kinda boring like that. After all the strange mysteries that happened to me awhile back, I was afraid something would happen, and I'm very relieved that nothing has.

I'm going to Connecticon this Sunday! I'll be sure to take pictures and video for all of you that are interested in that.

Also, I made a tumblr account. I will be posting songs and stuff I find interesting over there, so if you are interested in those kinds of things, be sure to check it out.

Sorry for not updating more, I've been so busy with work lately I've hardly had time to think straight! No unrelated pic today, too sleepy! XD

Mystery Solved?

Well some of my friends on the Adult Swim Message Boards helped me solve the code in the last message.

The code: 492057494c4c2046494e4420594f5520414731494e

Translates to: I WILL FIND YOU AGAIN.

Pretty creepy, but there is no evidence that it is even aimed at me. I shouldn't be so paranoid. I just don't want what happened before to happen again. Well I'm sure I'll be safe. This mystery seems to be solved now!

Special thanks to ZeroStralem, Runescapian, and itsacoaster for help solving this riddle!

More mysteries?

So I decided to go to the house after all. I didn't think I would find anything. I even made a video with my phone saying as much...



In any case, I found a piece of paper on the ground by the for sale sign. Oddly you can't see it in the video. I'm starting to freak out a little.
I don't know what this is supposed to mean...can someone help me out?

Strange Happenings

Today was like most days. I got up and decided to go to the Target...that is when I saw a strange sign on the road by my house.


Well that's strange I thought. Who'd make a sign like that? And for what reason? The mysteries were only just beginning

So I continued on to Target, which is oddly enough, right next to the mall. After failing to find what I was looking for at Target, I left. Right next to my car was a strange paper. A listing for a house in the same town I live in. This is also really weird. Here's the house.

This is all really strange. Maybe I'm looking too far into this, but it's almost like someone is leaving me clues. Kinda like those ARGs I've heard so much about on the internet. Maybe I'm just easily frightened, especially considering what happened last October. Well what do you guys, my blog readers think I should do? Should I check out this house?

Red Haired Girl

So....I was bored. This happens a lot. I decided I wanted to be a red-head now.

stormoftara sings...

I was bored one night and decided to record me singing a song from Lunar Silver Star Story Complete, an JRPG...



Well after doing that, I decided to make a series of me singing.



This one is much better quality. I remember the first time I heard that song on Futurama, and I loved it! I will probably make more songs later on, so watch here or on my youtube channel for more.

Computer problems galore!

Due to many many computer problems, I have not been updating my blog lately. Or my poor poor webcomic. There is also the problem of me not having any free time due to school and work. Do not worry readers, whoever you are, I will be back to updating my blog with nonsense soon.

She's gone?

Yesterday started out like any other day, heard Tara's alarm go off with the usual rumblings around the house and heard her dash out the door to work. Expected her home after work because she didn't tell me she was going anywhere. While taking the trash out, I saw a glint in the leaves and saw that it was her video camera. As I watched her last video, I became extremely concerned. This is the video.

Halloween Blog 5

Happy Almost Halloween again. I've had a pretty rough day...I keep having this strange feeling...I don't know how to explain it. Everyone keeps asking me what I'm upset about, but I'm not really upset, I just feel really out of it.

In any case, today is a DOUBLE HALLOWEEN BLOG!

First we have my Halloween animation from two years ago, based on my character Ham and her friends.

Next we have this picture...

The eyes are always watching...always watching...

So that's it for today's post! It's almost Halloween I'm excited!

Trix Cereal Spider Cookies! YUM!
Cute lil Ghost Cookies
And what could be cuter than a kitty in the foam of your coffee?

In any case, I don't know if I should even mention this, but I've had this weird feeling lately, like...someone is watching me. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. Well see you next blog!

Halloween Blog 2

It's almost Halloween, and I will be posting creepy things in my blog everyday until Halloween. Today's video really scared me the first time I saw it.

Halloween Blog 1

Hey guys! It's almost Halloween, my favorite holiday, and everyday from now until Halloween I will be posting something spooky here in my blog.

Today's post is a scary video I saw on Youtube called "There are Monsters"

The Tall Slender Man

It's short story Thursday again. I know I haven't posted a story in awhile. This is a story from when my brother and I were children. A true story, or the overactive imagination of two children? I'll leave that up to you.

My brother and I used to live in a small town in California. We used to play in an area we called the Canyons, a bunch of trails in the woods, all covered with what seemed to be a massive amount of red clay, which was always staining our clothes. We often played there into late in the night. It could be very scary, there was often prints in the mud from mountain lions. My brother and I were very brave, and even this couldn't scare us. This night, however, there was something that did scare us.

We were walking along one of the darker paths. The sun had already gone down and the only light was from the stars and the moon. It was then that it got deathly quiet, as if all the sound had been sucked out the air. I could swear that I couldn't even hear my own heartbeat. We then saw a shape emerging from the woods.

It was too dark to see well, but he appeared to be a man. An abnormally tall slender man, whose limbs seemed as if they were way too long. I couldn't see his face, it was too dark. My brother and I stood transfixed, afraid to move or run away. The man beckoned to my brother, and my brother started to move closer to him. As I was watching, the man seemed to grow even taller, his arms becoming too long to even be considered human. I grabbed my brothers arm and dragged him away from the man, whose arms seem to be getting closer and closer to us. As we ran, sound returned in a crashing boom.

That night I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking I could hear the sound of something tapping at my window, but I was too afraid to get up to look.

Later on, one of the other children in the neighborhood went missing. I'm not sure what happened to him, as we moved to Pennsylvania shortly afterward. I sometimes still think I can hear something tapping at my window. I'm still too scared to look.

Happy Birthday to me!

That's right, today, speak like a pirate day, is my 23rd birthday! I feel old now.


I'm gonna do something I don't normally do in this blog. Talk about my real life. I recently broke up with this guy. A guy I've loved for many years. The thing is, we are no good for each other, but we have a bad habit of hooking up every time we see each other. Now that I'm 23, I've decided to make a change. I'm going to do things differently now. I've deleted him from my Facebook, I've deleted his number from my phone, I'm deleting him out of my life. It hurts, but I can't continue to do this to myself. I need to be independent now. I need to start my life without him. Today, I begin my new life. This year is going to be better.

Worst Song Ever

It's random Youtube Monday again! This song is so awful you'll have no choice but to listen to it till the end.

Customer is Not Always Right.

I've been reading a blog called Not Always Right. It's about how customers are not always right, even if they think they are. I've decided to write up some of my own. Note, I'm a manager at a Taco Bell

Customer: I want a Mango freezie thingy

Me: Ok one Strawberry Mango Frutista, that will be $2.00

Customer: Can you make it with more ice? It was too slushie last time

Me: I can't do that, it's a machine, it only has one setting

Customer: Can't you just add more ice?

Me: No...I can't really do that.

Customer: I really want it to not be as slushie, just add more ice, ok?

Me: *giving up* Sure thing

(I pour his frutista, it's the same consistency it always is)

Customer: Wow thank you! This is so much better than the last time!

Me: Yeah...you're welcome.

.........................................................................................................................

Customer: I'd like some breadsticks.

Me: Uh, what?

Customer: BREADSTICKS!

Me: We don't sell breadsticks here

Customer: Yes you do! I got them here last time I was here!

Me: Uh, are you sure you are at the right place? We are Taco Bell. We've never sold breadsticks.

Customer: YES! I got them here last time! GIVE ME MY BREADSTICKS!

Me: Really, we don't have them. I'm not lying.

Customer: YES YOU DO...Oh yeah that was a different store. *drives off really fast*

.................................................................................................................................

Customer: I'd like a coffee.

Me: We don't serve coffee here, but there is a Tim Horton's right next door. Do you want anything else?

Customer: *getting angry*: How about a six piece crispy chicken?

Me: Umm...We don't have that here either. There is a KFC right next to the Tim Horton's though

Customer: *really angry* FINE JUST GIVE ME A SMALL FRY!

Me: You're all kinds of confused, but if you want a french fry there is a McDonald's right across the street.

Customer: *storms out*

........................................................................................................................................

Customer: What comes on a cheese roll?

Employee: Ummm...cheese?

Customer: YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO BE RUDE ABOUT IT! *drives away*

Me: Did that really just happen?

...........................................................................................................................................

Customer: I'd like a Volcano Taco

Employee: Sure, anything else?

Customer: Do you still have tacos?

Employee: What?

Customer: Tacos, do you still have them?

Employee: You...just ordered one?

Customer: Oh I thought maybe you stopped serving them.

(a little while later)

Different customer: Do you still have cheese?

Me: What is going on!?

..................................................................................................................................

Customer: (From outside the drive thru window) OH MY GOD! I WANT TO TALK TO YOUR MANAGER!

Me: I'm the manager how can I help you?

Customer: THERE IS A SPIDER ON MY TACOS!

Me: Well, we can replace it for you. But didn't you buy those tacos 4 hours ago? (I have a good memory for customers)

Customer: YES I LEFT THEM IN MY CAR! AND WHEN I WENT TO OPEN THE BAG THERE WAS A SPIDER!!!

Me: Maybe it came from your car?

Customer: NOOOOOOOOO! AHHH *screams incoherently in the parking lot about spiders for about a half an hour*

Another employee: Did she want a refund?

Me: I have no idea...

...................................................................................................................................

Customer: I'd like to talk to the manager

Me: Yes, I'm the manager.

Customer: NO! I want to talk to the other manager.

Me: I'm the only manager on duty right now.

Customer: What about that guy? *points at one of our older employees*

Me: No really I'm the only manager. He's not a manager.

Customer: You are too young to be a manager. (I look like I'm pretty young, but I'm 22 years old)

Me: *points at my nametag that says I'm a shift manager*

Customer: Hey you over there! Can you help me? I need a manager!

Employee: She's the manager.

Customer: WELL I DON'T HAVE TO TAKE THIS SHIT! *storms out*

.....................................................................................................................................

Customer: I came here the other day, and they put cheese on my chicken tacos! I want chicken tacos with no cheese for free!

Me: No problem sir.

(I help the employees make the order, making sure there is no cheese on the tacos)

Customer: I am allergic to cheese, you sure there is no cheese on them?

Me: I made them myself. There is no cheese sir.

Customer: Ok.

(He leaves. The next day I hear a familiar voice over the headset)

Customer: I bought chicken tacos last night and they had cheese on them!

Me: Please pull up to them window.

Customer: THERE WAS CHEESE ON MY TACOS! I want them again for free.

Me: No, there was no cheese on them sir.

Customer: YES THERE WAS.

Me: No there wasn't. I made them last night. I didn't put cheese on them.

Customer: But there was cheese on them

Me: That's impossible. I made them and I know for a fact I put no cheese on them.

Customer: I thought there was cheese on them...

Me: Yeah, there wasn't cheese.

Customer: Well I won't be coming back here AGAIN!

Me: Yeah, that's probably for the best.
