There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. - G.K. Chesterton
At 6:30 this morning I found myself listening to opera while wearing an elf hat.
With such an auspicious start to my day, there was no telling where it would, or might still, go. Perhaps I’ll be wisked away on some wild adventure. Filled with daring antics, unexpected plot twists, and a rousing score [...]
In the last 2 months I have encountered several people whom I had not seen since High School. One I didn’t recognize, another I recognized but had trouble accepting it was her, and the third came into Starbucks today (and I’m 99% sure it was who I thought it was.)
I’m entering [...]
I finished scoring my song.
I spent five hours moving boxes.
I almost was too tired to finish my dinner.
I am trying to finish homework by midnight.
Today marked the beginning of my get-back-in-the-groove week wherein I try to finish up commissions, get back into my workout routine, finish scoring an orchestrated piece of music, and…hmmm…seems like I’m forgetting something. Well, I’m sure I’ll remember it after the fact. In the middle of it all, I’ll be handing out the [...]
So much turkey. So much ham. The gym is definately in my future.
If Thanksgiving week has done anything, it’s gotten me behind on commissions and mailing out artwork. Hopefully people won’t be too irritated with me. Two of them are going to Canada…and as you know, their Thanksgiving is February or something. So maybe they’ll forget that this week was spent getting ready for [...]
I didn’t know that Christopher Walken was the bad guy in a View to a Kill. But he is. Man is he creepy. He’s the kind of guy who would seem likely to stab you in the face with a fountain pen with no prior warning whatsoever. He’s in a [...]
Happy Thanksgiving, Internets. Today, try and take a few minutes to actually be thankful this year before you stuff yourself silly on meats and potatoes of various incarnations. I would also like to point out that Christmas music is permissible today, but don’t over-do it.
As you move into this crazy season of Holiday [...]
Seriously people. Hang up your friggin’ cell phones when you go into a store and have to talk to a salesperson. I know you’re very important. We get it. How hang up.
I hope everyone is eating light tonight in preparation for stuffing themselves sick tomorrow on turkey and trypophanzzz. Word.
I haven’t [...]
I guess I’m assimilated now.
When I’m at another Starbucks, or even Barnes & Noble, I have the urge to wipe down their condiment bar and make small talk with customers. Clearly I need to compartmentalize more. Which is a first.
I’ve started composing again.
I used to write music more often, but at some point I shifted gears more into the art world. I may be a tad bit rusty, but for the most part I think my music theory is coming back to me. I’ve got some stories in my head that I [...]
I have fallen out of the habit of working out regularly in the last couple of weeks. I’m afraid the solution to this is going to have to be hitting the gym early in the morning. This isn’t appealing, but neither is being out of shape and fat, so I’ll choose the one [...]
It’s less than a week until Thanksgiving. I would tell you to start thawing your turkey, but since I have no idea how far in advance a turkey is to be thawed, that advice could prove to be disasterous for you and yours. So might I recommend you check on that for yourself? [...]
Dear Customer who was angry that my register was having problems,
I’m sorry that you were sorely disgusted that you had to go to the other register after witnessing my register having to reboot. I can understand how it might, in a small way, have inconvienenced you. I would just like to say [...]
I opened this morning. That means I was up at 4 this morning. I’m very tired.
What does this mean for this post? An utter lack of planning and direction and no real purpose.
Did you know that I think people should get off the phone when they walk in and order [...]
I would like to announce that it’s officially beard growing season.
Every year, beginning around the week before Thanksgiving, I start to grow a full beard. Why? Just because. Then I’ll get tired of looking 5 years older and shave it back into the goatee. Although, since I’m growing the goatee [...]
I like being done with work by 9 am. I know, it’s a hard life. But someone has to do it. I’m not even tired yet from getting up at 4am But give me a few more hours…it’ll hit.
I wrote that last part about 2 hours ago. NOW I’m tired. [...]
Tomorrow I have to be at work at 4:45 am. I don’t think I’ve ever had to be anywhere at 4:45 am. The upside is that I get off at 9am…so I’ll have the whole day ahead of me. To face….groggily.
Now I’m off to bed.
Today flew by like buttered lightning. I spent the day drawing commissions for the fine people down at the Charlotte Comic-con. I’d like to thank Ms. Marvel, Zatanna, and GravyBoy for providing the means to eat at Cracker Barrel on the way home. My favorite moment from the con?
13 year old kid: [...]
I’ve got a small, one day convention in Charlotte tomorrow.
I unexpectly had to be at work at 6 am this morning.
I am tired.
My computer keeps restarting. It pisses me off.
I’m still tired.
This post is here because I don’t want to skip posting today.
