Well, lots going on. Time to fill your heads with love, ADAM T style…
First of all, tonight is my last shift for a week or so at the Lions Den Porn Shop. I asked for a vacation and my humble manager agreed. So I get nine glorious paid days off! I got lots planned, none of it involves spending money… cause I don’t have any!
But I plan on finishing final art duties on WISE INTELLIGENCE #3 (I’m on page 14 now) and finish the art on Pleasant Life #4. Also I want to finish scripting on 5-7 with full touch ups and make the scripts FINAL, FINAL. Also, I got an email from Brett that the script for the one shot we’ve been talking about doing is about ready. He’ll shoot that to me this week likely and I’ll get started on it soon. It’s a 24 page one shot called “THE EXPENDIBLES.” It should be a fun gig.
Kelly and I have been pouring our funds into paying off our debt so we can get a newer car by the winter. Slowly but surely credit cards that were once maxed are being paid off and forgotten forever, and we’ll be dug out of this hole. Want to help???
Well, I am offering an end of summer commission sale right now. Refer to the front page of idiothead.com for details. (See? Plugging away like a whore! THAT’S the business of comics!)
Shane I should record a new podcast tomorrow. Also, I want to show him the new art on Wise 2-3 and OUTCAST and get his feedback. Also on a couple T-shirt ideas I have. Should be a productive day.
I’ll tell you folks… I’m REALLY looking forward to a vacation. I’m so damn burned out. I need to catch up on comic related stuff and also take some time to veg out and watch some DVDs. I barely get to anymore. Its kind of sad. But I love the production aspect of making comics and that’s what I am balls deep into right now. It is quite refreshing. I think to all the other people in the world that wish they could do this everyday. But I get to. I feel quite privileged that I get the chance to do this. It’s all thanks to you folks for caring.
My friend TED wrote me and told me how his power has been shut off. My heart is sinking for him. So much so that I am trying to see what I can do to help. If I had money, I’d give it. I don’t have any, so I have to see what I can for him. He needs to get out of his situation and start over. I hope in some capacity I can help provide that. Everyone needs a little help now and then.
I sold my 1995 Chevy Lumina today to a co-worker. It’s the second car I’ve ever owned and I finally parted with it today. They got a hell of a deal on it as I didn’t charge that much for it. It’s always sad to let go of a part of yourself go like that. But I’m excited about the newer car we’ll hopefully be getting soon.
In other news, Kelly and I started a diet on Monday. I’ve stayed quite strong on it. I’m off sodas and into juice and water. Coffee made it back into my regimen though, which is okay. I missed coffee. But I’ve been eating lots of toasted turkey and ham subs, diet microwave dinners, baked grilled chicken and no sweets. I’ve stayed strong on 4 occasions of extreme temptations so I am pretty damn solid. Hope for the best with me. The first month is the biggest hurdle. I’m almost through my first week. I’m defiantly not inclined to give in to fast food at all, cause I quit that shit for good. Never again.
I’m not looking forward to ONE MORE WORK DAY tonight. Ugh. I just want it to be here already! I do have to go to a store meeting early Sunday morning too. That kind of sucks, but at least I get overtime for it and I don’t have to do any hard work! But I got PLENTY planned for my vacation to keep me busy. So I might be incommunicado on the net for this next week. I’m trying to avoid the pitfalls of slackery (myspace surveys!) and get on with it. If you need to contact me, do it either via email or myspace message.
Okay bitches. Much love to yeh all. Back to your lives.
