Description The Easter Tree
By CaffeinatedRice

...And they saw that Eastertide had come upon the blizzard-stricken north. So thought CaffeinatedRice, "I must make SOMEthing to pleaseth my Lord God. Or he shall smiteth me with his most ferocious Lapine Easter Beast."

So the good artist set about overcomething her many trials to accomplisheth her most onerous task. She wept until a USB port appeareth on her grandsire's most ancient Dell in an Easter miracle, and wept still more bitterly when she realizeth that lo! the computer was indeed so archaic that it crashedeth every time she attempted to install her most modest version of Photoshop 3.0! But she persevereth, and at last God appeareth unto her and beheld the fruits of her labor. Sayeth He:

"Wha--"

"It's a tree." She explaineth the wretch, being most skilled at b-s-ing. "An Easter Tree."

"Why's it all icky-looking?" whineth God.

"BeCAUSEthestupidcomputerissofreakingolditwasyearsoldbeforesomeoneeventhoughtupthequickmaskandblendanddodgetoolsinadecentdigitaldrawingprogramanditexplodetheverytimeItrytoinstallPHOTOSHOP!!!" stated she.

And God smiled upon CaffeinatedRice and said unto her, "Damn, that's pretty decent for MS Paint".

CaffeinatedRice lifted her head unto God and said "hey thanks."

And, turning away, she mumbleth "it tooks some serious coffee libation."

From the book of Dial-up 11:26.

*snickers* I needed that. (i was snickering at the hilarity of your story, not at the tree, but of course you can have me laughing at the tree, too, if you so desire).

Oh, by all means. I open it sometimes just for that purpose. It looks like it's being attacked by the Easter dust mites of yellow fury.

READ THE BIBLE!!

hehe.

No, I'm a Buddhist, but, as a writer it really helps to read the bible. It's an excellent mythology.

mmh, that's what I 've heard The stories are fantastic, from what my mom's told me, once you get past the archaic language and all. And there're so many allusions other people are always having to explain to me XD

My aunt's a Buddhist ^_^ She's explained some of the concepts and they sound really nice. All peaceful and kind and whatnot.

Ahahaha... that's beautiful. I think we might have burned the easter tree though in our lovely 16 degree windchill catholic outside fire easter vigil thing. Whoops.

Still, it is fabulous for MS Paint.
