Ah finally... two days off. After getting over a slight cold and sore throat, I am back to work baby!
I called in sick to the pron shop Saturday because my throat was so sore. My uvula (the dangly thing in the back of the throat) was enlarged to the size of a ping pong ball and rested on my tongue. when I talked, I sounded so odd, like I had a major jaw problem coupled with a speech impediment. But luckily some Cloreseptic came to my rescue and its back to normal somewhat. I went to work on sunday and I must say I kinda busted ass this week. I moved four huge magazine racks and brought in 3 new ones. Those suckers were HEAVY! then yesterday I stayed busy by doing returns and other stuff... basically stayed busy for once. Perhaps to show my appreciation for the Xmas bonus I got! I dunno. but at least I can sleep at night knowing I did something.
Kelly is off to work so I am home alone now with the scott-bot 4000. Once he passes out, I will get down and dirty on some pages. I've been emailing alot of folks today back and forth. Catching up with shane and aligning some new deals in the comic world that I hope to announce soon once there's something to report. Hopefully my check comes today and I can order my new computer and get it here toot sweet! Meanwhile, I am fighting with our neighbors above us who have a kid that runs and stomps around the entire apartment, waking my baby up and distirbing the crap out of me. Shakes the whole damn place. We tried to see if we could move to a new apartment to no avail so far. We'll see how this plays out.
In entertainment news, I watched a film called KILLING JOHN LENNON, all about Mark David Chapman. A bio film about the days leading up to Dec 8th, 1980.... which funny enough I just realized, is TODAY! Wow. Ain't that odd. Um, typing/thinking aloud here. Anyway, it wa a decently disturbing artsy of a flick. for those morbid, obsessive detail oriented people, I'd recommend it. Also this week saw the loss of two people in the movie world that I look up to: Forrest J. Ackerman and Beverly Garland. A week of suck, in that reguard. But at least I got their past works to enjoy. I think today I may watch some IT CONQUORED THE WORLD and SWAMP DIAMONDS to get some Beverly Garland fix. You ladies out there should check out her films. she was a real woman actress, someone to be idolized. Unlike every fucking popstar there is out there. Just like Lillian Gish. Anyone know who I am talking about? No? Of course you don't.
I weep for thee.
I found out my new comp will have ILIFE, so I can make my own DVDs, video blogs/casts and GARAGE BAND so I can maybe do some new music recording with 8 tracks of audio and mastering. I'm looking forward to it all. But first I gotta get these two books out of my way. then a slight break from it all. Watch some movies, spend time with the family, do some jamming, see where it leads. Then start OUTCAST book #2 in the summer after the bulk of the convention tour 2009 is done. We'll see.
Not much else to say beyond this point. those are my mind-drops for the day. Take care out there.
