There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. - G.K. Chesterton
Dear Angry Mom,
Thank you for what I am sure were encouraging words, and your thanks, for teaching your daughter last semester. I’m glad that your daughter was able to put up with a class that was completely beneath her skill level, which she demonstrated in protest by not doing work for most of the [...]
After several weeks of working in a frenzy to get different projects done, I hit the brick wall of mental exhaustion last night. I’ve never been accused of being a workoholic, but I can easily slip into that frame of mind when I’m doing art or music. Because it’s something I enjoy (even [...]
I’m proud to say that the Shearer’s have had no further car troubles today. (Alisa on the other hand…)
I was a little sluggish getting down to drawing this morning, but managed to finish up this piece. This is Cavewoman vs. a raptor. Yep. That’s about it. Now back to work.

Okay, so I’ve been away from the blogging. Here’s a recap:
I finished up the school year. It was…interesting…to say the least. Here are few stats that I emailed out to several people on staff recapping my time there:
- Percentage of staff Brian has enjoyed being around: 98
- Number of derogatory rumors [...]
A few weekends ago I was in West Virginia for a whitewater rafting trip with the men from church. This was more of a trip just to hang out and get to know each other and what not rather than a “let’s solve all our theological questions” trip. Of course, being together on [...]
