Take all your songs. Throw them on Winamp. Mix them up.
Add 'IN MY PANTS' to all the title.
Post them in your LJ.
Here goes.
Psycho Killer in my pants- "The call is coming from inside your pants!"
Heaven Tonight in my pants - Don't I wish.
A Fairytale about Slavery in my pants - O_O
Lake Of Fire in my pants - It's that burning sensation
Brothers In Arms in my pants - All of them.
Slippery People in my pants - Kinda gross, really
Wrapped Around Your Finger in my pants - O_o;; Jeez.
Burden In My Hand in my pants - In my hand and in my pants at the same time. Wow.
Queer in my pants - *snick* Look, we're just friends, okay?!
Wildfire in my pants - Get out the hoses!
Red Right Hand in my pants - Whose, I wonder?
Marooned in my pants - Help! I can't get out of these!
Starseed in my pants - That damned alien!
Head Down in my pants - That's right, mister.
Bring Me To Life in my pants - Somebody, please! Wake me up inside! ;D
Head Like A Hole in my pants - Imagine having a head like a hole in my pants or head like a hole in my pants? Hmm.
Peter Returns in my pants - About damn time, too.
Where Did You Sleep Last Night in my pants - (Which is odd, because I always like to sing, "Inthe pants, in the pants, where the sun don't ever shine..." Telling.)
Anyway, my Dad called me before. My Mom is still feeling sick from the drugs they gave her so she has to stay a while. Also, today's snow seems to have turned to ice, the roads are just a sheet of it. It's sleeting now. WTF? They might stay overnight at the hospital. Which, to me, is better than driving home in this nonsense.
I'm so bored that it's insane. There are many things I guess I could be doing (writing, perhaps,) but I can't even seem to get the movivation to do that. For the love of pete, I can't even get the motivation to plug in Gamecube or PS2. All I've done all day is listen to music and draw some really, mindbogglingly crappy drawings. Seriously, I got myself really mad over it, too, because I have this image in my head and then when I draw it and it comes out all wrong, it ruins the whole thing for me. I'm very sensitive like that. ;)
The first one I did was this one.
I hate the way I did the face in that one; it looks nothing like the character I have in my mind. It looks cartoony and silly and plain and just not right, and I hate it. But I put it here to remind myself how much I hate it and how wrong it is and to never draw that face again.
I then tried a different approach with the same theme.
A bit closer, but still wrong.
To me, this is sort of what I really have in my head, and I've only gotten it once or twice. By and by I started to realize something. I always try to cast characters in my head, mostly so that I can look at photo references, but also really because I very much need to picture characters in order to write about them. I've bounced Leander around between Ewan McGregor and Jesse Spencer, but the Jesse Spencer based drawings didn't exactly work out for me. What I liked best, and what I've always sort of pictured was Ewan McGregor in some combination of his long, red hair days, and his Kurt Cobain days.
And I said, "huh, Kurt Cobain. Maybe that's really who I've been picturing all along."
Laugh, snark if you want to. Kurt was beautiful so there STFU.
(Shameless support for Justice For Kurt. Btie me.
Well, gotta let my dogs out, take care of Pendragon's tail. Then, I dunno. Find some other thing to do, or something. Blah.

Date: 2005-03-24 02:02 am (UTC)Love that song. Er, minus the part about said hand being in your pants and all. =P Your entry made me feel better when I was feeling crappy. Yay. ^_^ This reminds me of Star Wars lists I used to read years ago when I was using the old text-only browser. Ahhh, pants... er, memories.
I really like that second picture. Especially the purple glowy thing. And his face looks really nice. What happened to the facial features on the first one? They got all blurred. Anyhoo, the eyes in the second one look for more anatomically correct, for lack of a better word. ^^;; They don't slant unnaturally...
I'm a horrid art critic.
LOVE the shading on the face in the second pic--would look even better if the pencil smudgy-ness had been removed first. Mmm, nice shading. Have you ever thought of (painstakingly...ha) inking your pictures in photoshop so you could get rid of the pencil lines? It'd make everything look brighter if you want it colored.
I hope that was helpful at least a little. ^^;

Date: 2005-03-24 03:07 am (UTC)You are so a worthy art critic; you've given me a lot to think about. The features in the first one look blurry because I blurred them because I hated looking at them. ;)
I'm not sure I'd have the patience to ink pictures in Photoshop--come to think of it, I don't actually have photoshop, I use a combination of OpenCanvas and ImageStarII. OpenCanvas doesn't have a smudge tool, and ImageStarII doesn't use .jpg, so between switching programs I have to use PhotoPC to switch the drawing from .tif to .jpg to .tif to .jpg like thirty times. Such a pain.
Thank you so much for your comments!
