So you may have noticed that my Pokemon Profile Picture Month post has stopped updating. This is because finals and life got in the way, and I am now much too far behind to try and catch up. I may, next December, finish up the month, starting where I left off.
I almost didn't post anything today. I feel guilty for pushing Jumblemash's post downward, but I can't just never update again, or else I'll lose the one readerI gained out of the post.
Which brings me to the next point of topic! I have nine readers! Nine! Nine is my favorite slash lucky number, so I feel very accomplished for reaching that point... Even though I'd much rather have, say... 81 readers. (That's nine times nine.)
It's been dangerous to travel in my area. Roads covered in ice, freezing wind and rain... But surprisingly little snow. There's still snow, but most precipitation has been freezing rain. On top of that, despite the fact that most of the people in the city have been through several midwestern winters, the ratio of save drivers in the city and those who freak out in cold weather is one to OMGBBQ. The reason I bring this up, is because I have family coming for Decemberween and Wintereenmas as I'm sure most people's families are, and I want them to arrive safely. So everyone, if you have family traveling through snow and winter conditions, please make sure they know how to handle it.
Until next time,
Cap'n Kyrie

Pokemon Profile Picture Month
As many of you know, December is Pokemon Profile Picture Month. Essentially, you make a pokemon your facebook profile picture for all of December. Well, I've taken it one step further. For every day, I'm going to draw a combination of two or more different Pokemon, essentially creating a Pokemon that doesn't exist. That will be my profile picture for the day. It's sort of like an advent calendar. I'm taking requests from all of my friends and readers, so if you really want to see a combo, post a comment!
Day One:
For day one, since no one yet knew my plan, I chose to combine a shiny mew and pikachu, since they are my two favorite pokemon ever. Behold: Pikamew!
Pokemon: Mew and Pikachu
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Two:
One of my friends requested this combo, stating that it would be cute. She was right! Behold: Celachi!
Pokemon: Celebi and Jirachi
Completed?: Yes
Picture:
Day Three:
An elegant combination, in my opinion. Decide for yourself. Behold: Persionair!
Pokemon: Persian and Dragonair
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Four:
Domi requested this, thinking that I would be putting the two pokemon in the same picture, not combining them. Even so, I thought it was intriguing, so I decided to try. I'm not as happy with this one, but I did my best. Here is: Taureotto!
Pokemon: Pidgeotto and Tauros
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Five:
For those fans of Eevee evolutions. Sorry it took so long. I had a busy day. I am, however, particularly proud of this one. Behold: Umbresp!
Pokemon: Espeon and Umbreon
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Six:
This was one of the many suggested to me by another friend. It seemed interesting and challenging. I found out, as I was drawing, that there is a bit of debate over which one is cuter. Now, you don't have to decide! Behold: Jigglysaur!
Pokemon: Bulbasaur and Jigglypuff
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Seven:
While we're on the subject of Eevees, I thought I'd design an Eevee evolution that doesn't yet exist. Behold: Spookeon!
Pokemon: A ghost type eevee evolution.
Completed?: Yes
Picture:
Day Eight:
Another friend's request. It was a lot more challenging than I expected. Sorry it's a little late. Behold: Charigatr!
Pokemon: Charizard and Feraligator.
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Nine:
How about two powerful and adorable pokemon that both have NINE in their names? Behold: Arcaninetails!
Pokemon: Ninetails and Arcanine
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Ten:
Yet another friend requested this fire and ice combo. It's a little bit late, but I'm still putting it up. Behold: Artincun-oh.
Pokemon: Ho-oh and Articuno
Completed?: Yes
Picture:
Day Eleven:
These two are my most powerful team members on Soul Silver that are not Dragon type or Legendary. Behold: Amphlosion!
Pokemon: Ampharos and Typhlosion
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Twelve:
Steam Me Up, Kid requested this combination. This combination is almost as interesting as Steamy. Check out her blog, to see what I mean. This combo was very difficult for me to pull off, but I love a good challenge. Behold: Metaterra! Is it just me, or does it remind you of another turtle with a world on it's back.
Pokemon: Metagross and Torterra
Completed?: Yes.
Picture:
Day Thirteen:
Two Legendary pokemon.
Pokemon: Suicune and Articuno
Completed?: No.
Picture:
Day Fourteen:
Peregrin is author of Chow Down Right, a thought provoking and often funny blog, and Dreamwalker, a blog where he interprets dreams. He requested this combo.
Pokemon: Mr. Mime and Meowth
Completed?: No.
Picture:
Day Fifteen:
Deadline. No more pokemon combo ideas accepted after this point.
Pokemon:
Completed?: No.
Picture:
Day Sixteen:
Apparently one of my friends is really enthusiastic about eevees.

Completed?: No.
Picture:

Same person who wanted Articun-oh requested this one.
Pokemon: Flarion and Nidorina

On Being a N00b
I am a n00b at this blog.
And at any blogging, really. I've never blogged before, though I've enjoyed the blogdome of other people's. Every time I thought, 'You know, I could do that,' but, of course, I never did. Until now. Right now, the blog design sucks, the blog content isn't all that great, and the blog in general just about blows... But that's expected of a first time blogger... It'll get better, I promise. I know basic HTML! Yay! ....It is yay, right?
I am a n00b at driving.
At age 18, two months away from being 19, I still cannot drive. I got my learner's permit at age 17.5 and after two lessons from my dad in our van am thoroughly terrified of being behind the wheel. I can admit that learning to drive is kind of vital to survive in the world. So I know I need to learn ASAP. After my second lesson during which I drove the van into a ditch however, I believe both my parents and myself are a bit reluctant to try again.
I am a n00b at anime... Sorta.
It's not like I've never watched anime, but after my first con (I've been to a total of three, so far.) I realized that I know next to nothing about anime, which is something I really didn't expect. There are thousands of references I didn't get. I really want to get them, too. They sound interesting. I can't speak Japanese. I know a small handful of words and how to count to six. I know how to spell even less, and none of it in characters. I like to wear costumes, but I can't stand making them. I have avoided Pok'e'mon since they started adding more than the first 151 like crazy, to the point that the original 150 are rarities. I mean, come on. The song went: 150, or more to see. Meaning that more than 150 are like brand new discoveries. Sorry, I'll stop ranting now... Anyway, I've gotten a little more tolerant, but only of the video games. I refuse to watch the series.
So maybe I'm not a n00b... more like a novice. I knew a lot of things before going to my first con that I was a bit more prepared than an actual n00b. I knew to avoid Narutards. I knew about the game. (Which you just lost, haha.) I knew that pirates are greater than ninjas. (leGasp!) I knew not to go wearing just cat ears. (Although I am a fan of cats in general, a plain catgirl I am not.) My opinion may not be shared by every con-goer, but at least it is my own. After I went to my first con, I also realized: These are my people. It was like I was an alien, and I had just found my planet.
I'm not a n00b about everything. I know who I am and what I want to be. That I think is the most important thing anyone can know.
Until next time,
Cap'n Kyrie
