I am trying to finish up the most recent chapter of Through the years, but life has decided to throw a few speed bumps my way. First of all, my mother is in a hospital in California and about to undergo open heart surgery. One of her heart valves is leaking. Problem is she's not in the best of shape. Osteoporosis and several falls has helped her get addicted to pain pills. So My Dad is worried that this may have been my mothers last Thanksgiving. He also has already given me the warning that he doesn't want me to come out there because of how tight money is.
I figured that a note to catch those who read my work was needed. Yes, I am playing the new game, but I have decided that I needed to do some work on another character, so I have been quickly putting together a quick post of Molly Hallmarks family. It should be ready to be edited later today, when I am done with errands and can finish it. So keep the faith and Tracy shall return soon.
I picked up a new game last night, Borderlands 2, and I may be a bit preoccupied as I get into playing it. I got a lot of Through the years ready, just need to tweak things here and there plus work on a big plot event and make sure I don't mess up dates. But there will be more coming soon, I promise.
Now to go get my Mecromancer leveled up and if that idea fails, the Siren.
First is a story about a boy that dresses up as a girl, could have been transgendered, and the first chapter had a scene in the halls of the school where the school bully who forcibly kisses her, then the main characters friends taze the bully's buddies. They were on the way to the mall if I recall correctly.
Second story was of a young boy who's sister sneaks out and they (sister and her friends) dress him up as a girl and spread pictures all over school and basically try to ruin his life while thinking they are the ones being wronged
I remember seeing Phyllis Diller on TV as a kid and sure, I may not have understood a lot of her jokes when I was seven or even ten, but that woman was funny. Recently watched the first season of the Muppet's and she was on it. Very funny and a very interesting dresser.
I want to work on more, but I shall be house and dog sitting. An old home, so guess what fool is taking his scariest video games and movies with him. See how much fun I can have tonight. The next part is only partly done, but I'm not sure if I shall take my computer or my XBox, may just take the Xbox so I don't injure my computer in the travel.
I shall attempt to make the next chapter as quickly as I can
You may laugh at this, but normally my birthday is just the day, maybe go out to eat and that's that. Well I wanted to go to the game store in the mall and see if there was any cool video games out there that I wanted. Didn't see any, so I went to the music/movie store and hit pay dirt. I found the movies Surf Ninjas, Ferris Bueller' day off, Dudley Doright and E.T. and just had to get them. I haven't seen E.T. on dvd in a few years now and I've wanted to watch it really bad. I haven't seen Surf Ninjas for about 10 years and I loved it then, and then there was Ferris Bueller's.
I am still around just been busy. I was going to send the next part to through the years to be edited but I didn't get it finished. See I changed an idea or two and trying to fix things so it all works.
Also with it being my birthday I'm being carted around town. So maybe I'll be home soon and send it off to be edited if I get it done tonight
Okay I'm trying to get the next part done but I had to change some things around. Been busy and now the power keeps shutting off due to weather, so bear with me while I pull out my hair.
When I first wrote this, I was afraid to put the name of the town down for some reason I can't recall anymore. Now, almost a year later I don't have that issue. For those wondering where Through the years takes place, Tracy's current home is halfway between Palermo CA and Oroville CA.
This one is from the Gaby Bond universe and is a fan fic. All I recall is that Gabby/Drew meets a kid who is handicapped and in a wheelchair. Near the end he takes the kid for a ride with him. Which one was it
I was shown an interesting article from The Oatmeal, for those who don't know, the oatmeal is written and drawn by Matt Inman and he makes cartoons, some really crude and crass, but most of them funny. Well People take these and post them all over like with the lol cat pages. Last year, Mr. Inman contected a website, Funnyjunk and asked them to remove his copyrighted material. http://theoatmeal.com/blog/funnyjunk they also have stuff from Calvin and Hobbes, The Farside and other comics from the internet.
After seeing that blog about misfile I thought I'd start one about other transgendered webcomics I know of. It's not many and please add to the list, because I like reading web-comics. Keep in mind I'm just putting the few I know that have updated somewhat recently.
It was a several part story. The boy who runs away, has a rich father who has money set aside for when he gets older, and there is a way that only the boy knows to get to the money. In the mean time, the Step mother, or could have been regualr mother, tried to kill the child and if I recall she was french and the boy actually was intersexed.
Turns out the father was loaded and to make things right, she helps out her mothers family.
What your characters would look like? As I wrote on and am trying out a few different plot ideas, the more I write Mrs. Molly Hallmark in Through the Years, the more I see Missi Pyle, but I see her as Mrs. Beauregarde from the movie Charlie and the Chocolate factory. When she's getting mad in the stories, I see her just giving that creepy look that Missi pulls off so well.
Not sure why, but that was the first face I thought of when I kept writing her.
I am working on the next few installments of Through the years, but I had a thought for a plot idea and have been looking up information and working though the thoughts and possibilities of that plot and the possible outcomes.
So I will try to look over what is ready and send it off for editing when I get the chance and hopefully I can decide on how I will proceed.
That the Westro Baptist Church had been in town a few days ago. They picketed at the Easter High School on the East side of town (not to be confused with East Lansing though)
They were met with a wall of love and they showed up at 7 to 7:45. Who plans these pickets? What high schooler is really awake at 7 am? Sure they may be moving, but when I was in high school, I can't recall anything before 10 am.
But I've been a bit busy. Between subbing as a babysitter (was told the other day when Tanya got back the last three times I've changed the kids diaper I've put it on backwards) to helping people move (arms and back still sore and that was last weekend) to helping people shop and plan birthday surprises, I've not had the want to type when I get home.
I know on the 11th I'll be babysitting again. But hopefully I'll have something finished by then.
I recall as a kid (70's and 80's), when my Mom would go to Letterman Army hospital in San Francisco, we would go one of two ways to get to the city. First was to go to Livermore and stay with the people who are the inspiration for Shelly and Frank in my Through the years books, which put us on I580 to the Bay Bridge. But the other way was to get to I80 in Sacramento and take that to the Bay Bridge. What I want to know is did any of you ever go that way an recall seeing little wooden cutout sitting on sticks in the bay near Berkeley? I want to say it was near Berkeley, but it was in that area.
So my roommate Tanya asked me to help her out while she does a girl scout cookie booth. Well my job is less glamorous. I'm watching the 6 month old child she babysits. It's been an hour and I'vs changed a diaper that caused the dog to run in terror. Now the little ball of joy won't stop crying. I am not a child person. I will be glad when she is done, of course that's four hours from now.
Ok can't recall the title, but the story is about a boy who moves to his half sisters place who has two children. There is an aunt and uncle who try to get the now girl back bevcause they want her money from a fund set up by her dead father and the aunt and uncle are absusive
As mentioned before, my roommate Tanya is a girlscout troop leader. She got the call that the cookies are in and now in the living room is thirty cases of cookies. This is cruel and mean of her because o am a chocoltarian. Yes, my religion is based around the many forms of chocolate. Now there about 40 boxes of somoas in the living room and I have been threatened with bodily harm if a single cookies somehow manages to disappear.
This is torture. She was smart enough to leave the thin mints in the trunk of her car
I'm sorry for those who are waiting for the next chapter. I am still having internet issues with computer and can't seem to get the phone to teather to the puter. I also have had several other ideas pop into my head and wanted to get the stuff out of my head. I do have a couple of Tracy chapters almost ready but working on something and need to get it looked at twice for the contact, must make sure I don't mess up bible wise
Well one problem solved. Leaving mall with new smart phone. The old one was dying and the battery was swelling in the center. So now I need to wait for next unemployment check to get antenna for computer. But. Will be writing till then and may move. Computer to modem and post thatway
My last blog was about my computer. My phone has decided to join the wifi antenna of my computer in the land of the dead. I am using a roommates computer, but he's really picky about what sites people visit on it, so until I can get my computer a new antenna, I will just be at home, writing....if I can keep the stupid cats out of my computer chair
Just a question about something that I was thinking of writing about.
Say you had transitioned at a young age, and by 18 had the SRS and was living as a woman. A few years down the road you're married to a wonderful man and have adopted. (Okay,I know some states this may be hard, but it's just a question)
Story one: A boy dressing as a girl, living with a step mom and father who seem to not care, going to a bad school with gangs and one of the gang leaders takes a shine to her. I don't think it was finished though.
The second one is where a boy's Granny dies and she leaves him a mini cooper that is pink and a not about his grandpa being a cross dresser.
I was digging through old notes on the computer to find something I had plotted for Through the years and I came across the first draft of the story I had made. I had changed from that when I decided to go back and start with Troy as a kid. Slowly the story you all know today moved away from the original plot I had. So I was wondering how many of you would like to see the what could have been.
