Hey folks. It be me. Breathin' and livin'. Been pulling reference for my new GN last night and today. The kid is still royally sick so I won't get to any drawing till later in the day when the wife gets home. Sabo tonight though. I got work tomorrow night. Then at least 3 glorious days off in a row! I hope to stay hella productive during that time. I REALLY need to catch up on artwork. I am so behind it ain't funny. Thats why this blog be short. Anyway, I do got daily details that I've wrote daily of my daily doings for you. Further demonstration proving that I need a vacation. I'm a tad stressed and not myself. Just a nice relaxing couple nights of sleep and a soak in a jaccuzzi and sauna would be magic! But soon... Anyway....
A detailed account of how mundane my life is as of late:
Thursday: I get up at 8:30am and check emails and net stuff before heading in to work. I work a 10am-8pm shift. It goes by surprisingly fast. At the job, in an effort to fix what I thought was a broken reciept printer, I made it worse and broke it, leaving them sans one whole register for the busy weekend to come. I feel bad about it for a while, but then it passes. I get out at 8pm, the wife picking me up. We score some big johns steak subs and head home. I get some drawing done on a early sketch of ANNA POCALYPSE II cover and then call in to the Bigfanboy Livecast. Its a lively night and we move into a Studio Chatter. Old friends come back and the show is full of content. I toss some art to my pals on the show for feedback and they do the same. I pass out around 5am, exhausted as hell.
Friday: I wake up at 9am, get the bots and we hang out. The mail comes and my boxes of ANNA POCALYPSE GN's arrive! I record a video of me sketching a free sketch in the back of one of the books and post it online. Then do some sketching in some of the other books so they are ready to ship on Monday. The wife gets up and we all go out to Logan's Restaurant for steak. I do thirteen minutes on the treadmill and weigh in. Lost more poundage! We do some window shopping at Best Buy and drive through MSU campus to find some buildings we are looking for. We get home and the wife heads to work. I spend most of the day burning old vas tapes to DVD and labeling them. Then take time to play with the bots. He passes out at 7:30 and I surf the net and continue to burn DVDs till the wife gets home. I take the time to record the commentary track for ANNA POCALYPSE GN via my podcast before she arrives. Brian calls and we talk for a while. The wife passes out and I opt to take the night off from artwork to enjoy a flick. After about thirty minutes into "THE ELIMINATORS" on On Demand, I am falling asleep. I pass out next to the wife while watching AVGN.
Saturday: I wake up at 9:00 and get the bots. He seems really hungry this morning so I feed him and then eat some tuna helper. I do the weigh in and record a new video blog for it, which seems to not be working so well. I try three different takes, all the same way, looking all pixelated. So I decide its good enough and post it. I spend the morning working on Anna Pocalypse pre-order sketches in the books and seal mailers all morning. The bots is enjoying Scooby Doo hardcore at this point, so he's occupied. I also burn some more old VHS tapes to DVD in the other room while all this is going on. The wife gets home and we hang out around the house until I have to head to work from 8pm to 4am. Its a busy night, which is good. Time seems to fly by. Some good music on the station we are listening to. Finally, at 4am, I leave work and get home, passing out by the wife as soon as my head hits the pillow.
Sunday: I wake up and hang with the wife and kid after checking stuff. I watch some ipad videos online in anticipation for the possibility of our tax refund coming next week. I also record some more video footage to DVD. The wife heads to work and I slowly begin to realize that the bots isn't feeling all that well. In fact, he's deep coughing and running a fever. 102 at the highest point around 7pm. The wife is at work and I am stuck there without cough medicine so one of her co-workers graciously drives me some medicine. I get it down his gullet and just try to take care of him most of the night. I do some sketching on pre-ordered Anna Pocalypse books, which by now has become simple head shots just to get them done on time for next week's mailing! The wife comes home and we keep checking on the bots to make sure he is okay. We pass out around 1am.
Monday: I head to work at 9:30am. The wife keeps the car hoping we will get our tax refund when the mail arrives. It does not arrive. I spend from early in the morning till 7pm at work, dreaming of the work I can get done when I get home. And when I get home, my energy is totally zapped. I attempt a nap on the couch which doesn't take. I do sketch a few Anna books, but commissions I decide to push to tomorrow. I pass out watching AVGN with the wife around 11pm.
