This is me rambling about me, mostly. Current stuff: home, family, my head’s on fire… that kind of thing. This also includes everything imported from LiveJournal.
Sandra left two hours ago. I’ve eaten, napped, puttered… Now I need to crank. At a minimum, this weekend needs to see three rows inked, 12 rows colored, 7 days scripted, plus a shload of work done to get ready for this Africa trip (packing, tweaking presentations, etc).
I’ll have time to sleep when I’m on the plane, thankyouverymuch.

p.s. Up-to-the-hour progress on the buffer can be found here.
Held steady today… inked one, pencilled four more.
Oh, and I found a GLARING error in a strip I inked yesterday. Tagon refers to Breya as being “single.” Silly me. She’s married and I know it. The good news is that I can change the text to be even MORE in character for Tagon.
I only mention it because this is the first time an error of that magnitude has gotten that far along. Sandra and I BOTH missed it, silly us.
Sandra and the kids are going to be gone for the weekend, and I leave for S. Africa before they get back, which means that when I get home from work tomorrow I’ll have the house to myself.
Whether this means super-productive time or not remains to be seen. Sure would be nice to stack up a bunch ‘o buffer on Saturday.

I got this from Aeire and Scrubbo… apparently it’s making the rounds.

Came home from Novell exhausted, and collapsed in bed to the soothing sounds of Vangelis Oceanic. Woke up to the last track, and realized it was now 7pm. Time to ink.
So I went downstairs and inked four rows (three-row Sunday and a Monday). Not bad. Not spectacular.
I talked with an executive headhunter yesterday. I pretty much turned down a $175k/year position as a VP of Product Management for a company in Jersey. Why?
1) I don’t want to move.
2) For that money, they expect 100% of my time. Schlock would die.
Besides… JERSEY. What kind of self-respecting person lives in Jersey?
