pocketpig

the origin of pocketpig

me

a lot of people have asked "why the name pocketpig?" and i usually say, "well why not." but the truth is that it came from this fan i saw in a weird asian store. it's a weird pikachu rip-off, cashing in on culture, type of item. i gave it to randall and he always forgets to bring it back (he brought it to work) so that i can scan it for everyone. here i have found a site, unfortunately it's not in english, that has one of these fans. here it is.

mine was a little different, it said "pocketpig, how are you?" and for days i kept saying "pocketpig, how are you?" and then one day i said, "hey i'm going to register pocketpig.com" and of course it was a joke, but then randall said, if you don't do it, i will. so i had to do it. and i did. only i didn't know what to do with the url.

for my birthday, cindy and scottel and randall bought me a palm pilot. i downloaded a drawing program (see the faq for more info) and doodled. one day i went to a restaurant with randall and while he went to the restroom, i drew dinner. when he got back, i jokingly said, "yes! this is what's going on pocketpig, i'm going to do this for every meal!" he just looked at me and went, "raiight." and *pppt* i have it done it and it's what went on pocketpig. so anyway, that is why it's is called pocketpig. it's not a weird "body issue" or "bad self esteem." piggies are cute. i am a pocketpig.
