Right, due to chaos, my internet is now officially down for two weeks. My only access is at work, it's severely limited.

And I mean severely, except, that is, for my weekend job, which has perfect open internet connection.

At my day job I can't even look at my dA page (I get around it by going to my gallery or direct to my messages, but if there's something even remotely dodgy on the Daily Deviations, the content filter at work picks it up and kills the page.

So I'm... well, I'm out for two weeks until this is fixed.

Catch you later kids, I'll try and keep up with messages at least.

If you're reading this, you're bored. That, or uncomfortably interested in who I am...

Long story short, ask me, I like telling people stories, and my own is quite a good one (if you're into comic tragedies and occasional deviations into Monty Python).

I'm no angel, but I keep the wings, just in case :floating:

My dear Uncle Nick, it worries me when you don't talk. So I must bring the talk to you! How have you been, sir? :D Why don't you come and visit Gashu-Group more often? Hm, I was trying to figure out what you might have drawn once I saw three mature content filters on your page and looked at the titles. Now I'm not so sure I want to find out. :/

But I *have* been about, apologies little one. I've been into London to get an interview with Shirlene and spend the afternoon with Damian and Louise, I've brought T-shirts to the GG site and posted up articles about that, I've even been involved in the Gashu-Group broadcast testing...

But of course you haven't been able to see all that, which is a little mean. And yeah, about those drawing, I had one of those mad evenings where Kirianna, my Muse, whipped me into drawing things. In this case, underwear that Kirianna wanted to try on, some really cute panties and suspenders, and some slightly naughty ones on the most recent, but they're all marked mature because she's not wearing anything else. I'm a little ashamed of her, to be honest, but then again I just wish she didn't have so much control over what I draw :floating:

In any case, I've been doing stuff,just not stuff that everybody can really see. By the way, have you tried out the new series of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic yet? I keep poking at people to try watching it, because it's funny as all heck and actually good quality for a change.

I missed the podcast, I think it was on yesterday or the day before or something. I tried my hand at making a T-shirt :D Damian is editing it right now.

I wonder if Kirianna is the one controlling you o_o

No, probably won't either until the summer holidays. I'm going to do what my Uncle did; go through all the episodes of One Piece in one summer! And then watch other stuff :D

It wasn't a podcast, so much as a test for this weeks one, we were getting the feed-back issue sorted out. See, through the website it's actually about a full ten seconds lag time between saying something and the person hearing it, which can be tricky for something like asking/answering questions.

Oh, and you have literally got to try watching through all the MLP: FIM episodes in one go, it'll make you so happy you'll feel like you could burst after just three or four.

That, and there's the songs... Augh, the songs are awesome! Disney movie level for the most part. Especially Smile, Smile, Smile in the second series :iconcutepinkiepieplz: You'll never find a show that makes you feel that good to watch it.

:iconsuperpokeplz: I've been good, a little bit of everything.

My fiction writing's at a low ebb just lately, due to my absence from the internet and :iconhewhoerasesmost: forgetting about drawing the cover art for Wind Chaser.

On the other hand, I'm getting things moving with :icontrue-bronies: and planning things, many things. So my pony quota for the weeks is staying met.

And you? How's life?

Nice work, I always did have a soft spot for thespianism, but then I grew up and found that my voice just wasn't what any groups were looking for, even when I did example of my voices (complete with pantomime). And you'll have to trust me when I say this, but I have some rather epic voices, from mad scientist, to a Mr Punch, to a Dracula that would have the Hammer House of Horrors impressed.

Still, none of those fit with my physical build, so I never got cast for anything, mean...

In any case, have fun :floating:

Better than it has been. Although life seems out to kill me. I get hayfever, you see, really, really bad. It's worse this year than it's ever been and last week... ugh, that was hell.

What about life on your end of the internets, boss?

I woke up late for work and didn't get food. Kind of hungry. You should probably rest a lot until you're better. Not a good thing to be working when not well.

Heh, did that already :floating: And how... seriously, you have no idea how BORED a mind like mine can get through enforced rest. I spent from 8am to 8pm on Friday flat on my back in a darkened room with my head braced and my eyes swelled shut (that hayfever I mentioned? Yeah, that bad) unable even to go to sleep in case I rolled over and stuck my eyes against the pillow. Took until noon Saturday before I could even open my eyes fully again. Those symptoms broke through three months worth of taking tablets, nose spray and eye drops to prevent them... Doctors have prescribed me an immensely powerful anti-inflammatory course of tablets to keep that down andn another week or so, my level of antihistamine in my body should have reached a high enough level that I'll be safely immune to the effects that caused last week's flare-up.

Like I said though, so bored... Ended up practicing mind compartmentalisation again. For reference, that's a trick where you teach your mind to section off your concentration, allowing you to think or even believe two disparate things at once. When I got tired of that, I listened to audio books and music, but I couldn't actually do anything. Eventually I was even practicing chakra meditation and reciting tarot card meanings to stop myself from going insane. Even my practice at doing basic tasks blindfolded (an old trick) couldn't help, because moving around too much started me sneezing, and standing up caused my nose to run something awful.

Anyway, that was last week, this week the new tablets kicked in at last and, while I'm still sneezing and my eyes are still watering, there's no pain and no swelling from my allergies. So I'm fit for duty and happy to be so.

Now, I think you need a slap on the wrist for not grabbing at least something to eat before getting to work. Oversleeping isn't acceptable young artist! That's my job :floating:

Of all the things, this is the WORST. THING. EVER :iconraritydramaplz: (dang, just type in a random thing and there already IS an icon for that)

No seriously, that's pretty depressing :c

The other day I typed in 'mycabbages' as a reference to Avatar: Legend of Aang (the series, not the awful movie) and found that there's an icon for that too :iconmycabbagesplz:

Also, was that, or was that, the best kind of season finale to have? Ever?! I managed to avoid all the spoilers, and so aside from the plot points (she had no idea her brother was getting married and got angry, something wrong with the bride, Twilight tries to stop things but gets told off by everyone and feels ashamed, proved right and then saves the wedding...) I predicted precisely zip of that. Name any specific thing that happened and I can tell you that I had no idea that it was coming, honestly.

Not the music, not the references, not Pinkie-cranking-gatling-Twilight, not Dash doing an upwards Sonic Rainboom, not Celestia creeping from the tower, not Vinyl Scratch, not talking Lyra and Colgate, not Sunshine Sunshine Ladybugs Awake... the heck was with the amount of cute/awesome dichotomy going on with this thing?!

And dat villain... Chrysallis, despite the time constraints meaning that she couldn't be as evil as we wanted her to be, was almost scary evil.

Loved it! Loved the whole thing. I'll be watching it again when I get home, just because.

I already watched it three times in a row but then needed to go to sleep because it was already 2am. watched it again today and will watch it again tomorrow because it's that awesome.
It was glorious, exciting, scary, heart-warming and beautiful and lotsa lotsa other positive words that I could think of.

truly a masterpiece and worth to be called 'finale'

Speaking of avatar: thankfully korra is here to help me get over a few of these pony-less weeks

Indeed, but... ugh, finding time to *find* Korra is troubling. I caught the first episode, loved it to pieces (Rrraaaarr! I'm the Avataar!) but as yet haven't found time for the next. Don't spoil anything for me!!

Your Internet still down? :? Don't know when you'll find this, but I hope you can answer it when possible for you: Why is the gashu-group site saying it's expired? I don't want to ask Damian because I pester him too much, and at least you understand why I'd want to know. Well, I've assumed you do, anyway :)

Yes, I'm currently accessing from a public computer in the shop, it's not fun, and I'm tempted to buy everything around me.

I... have no idea why it's down. I've been out of the loop completely, and I now wish I wasn't.

If I can, I'll give Damian a call later and see what he says, but it may be maintenance, or maybe the money wasn't paid on time... worrying a little. Will hopefully be back online regularly this weekend. Until then, keep safe kiddo.
