i read alot this weekend.
i started ender's game on friday after work. stayed up until 2 am finishing it.
i tried ot put it down long enough to visit c, but the book's grip on me was too strong!
saturday, i woke up and make a cake for jo. it was ok, i thought it was too dry and could've used more sugar, but as long as jo liked it, i'm happy.
her parents, granmary, scott, ken, myself and emily were there for desert and presents. it was fun. after the festivities, jo, scott, ken and i rented kung pow: enter the fist. bizarre and twisted is all i gotta say. well, besides, "whee-ooo-whee-ooo!"
sunday, i woke up around 9:30, picked up the memory of earth and didn't finish until around 4pm. only then did i shower and go see ken.
i feel a little guilty taking up so much of my weekend reading when i could've seen more of him.
now i have to think up this week's comic and finish these blasted ads!

binge reading
i go through periods where i will just thirst for books. i'm now in one of those periods.
i've always been an avid reader, but when i go though my book binge, i read more than i normally do!
it all starts with a little trip to the bookstore...
today at lunch i went by the bookstore and picked up 3 books:
Ender's Game and The Memory of Earth by Orson Scott Card
Coraline by Neil Gaiman.
before this, i ordered 5 more books from amazon! o.O
did i mention that i love books? 8^)
i visited the oekaki board again. great fun.
i directed ken to it last night. he drew a pretty good pic of gunther.
progress is slow but sure on the ads this month.
i'm just glad i have buydown signage to work on next. that's not so bad.
i get to see ken today! 8^D can't wait.

doodles!
i found an oekaki board! 8^) mine's the pic of odile.
this board is attached to a cool art site called, tourniquet.
wish i could draw like that. go check it out.
i guess i couldn't draw enough today. i doodled and chatted with jo on yahoo. i do like their "doodle enviornment."
it's worth it alone for that.
bah! more ads at work. and by the time they decide to do anything or make corrections, it's past deadline. >8^(
now to home and to work on sca scrolls with jo.

the comic? what comic?
oh, that comic. heh heh.
i'm working on it. should be ready tonight. hopefully.
and i'm a cartoon!
what you you mean you already know that?
thanks, bry!
busy day at work. but at least i got stuff accomplished. yay!
this day just flew by. before i knew it, it was 3 o' clock and i haven't even eaten yet. 0.o
jo and emily did mucho cooking last night.
chili, and quiche and sweet potato pie and cookies! yummy.
so i now have lots o' food to bring to lunch.
too bad i can never find containers with lids for them.
i think i'll break down and buy some for the house when i get paid.
i think if i get the next comic done on time, i'll go to dad's on thursday night and sort through the stuff in my old room so i can have stuff for that yard sale. i don't know when it'll be now, but at least i'll be ready. also i've been looking through a bead catalog. i like to make crafty-like things from time to time. right now, i'm thinking of making my own jewelry. i've done it before and i can do it again, but i'm going to order mucho beads. then i have enough to make some for friends birthdays, christmas, etc.
maybe i might be able to sell them on ebay...*shrugs*
i need to finish my blog's design...i'll try to do that after i finish the comics for this week and the next...
LOL
this is a riot. check out the star wars and lord of the rings versions...

da' meetin'
ok, so the MSCA meeting. it went well.
i've already typed it in my forum, so here it is:
"the monthly MSCA meeting is held at RP Tracks, a little bar and grill near the Univeristy of Memphis campus, right next to the Tiger Bookstore.
i got to meet lots of cool folks who draw and talk comics.
of course i'm bad with names...
one guy draws political cartoons for a local newspaper. the desoto county times, i think...
another guy was a ghost artist for "hagar the horrible."
yet another is one half of the creative team for the comic, "the buckets."
they were a laid-back, friendly groups of folks. i had a good time.
i took along some blue canary strips and they laughed in the right places! woo hoo! "
i'm an offical member now. yes, i know i'm such a sucker. lol
i can't wait for the next meeting. it was fun.
as for being laid back, ken put it best after president tommy williams called the MSCA an "organization."
"that's a strong word for as laid-back as you guys are!"
which was followed by laughter. 8^)
they liked ken's work, too. he's going to try to have more to show at the next meeting.
now, i'm counting down the time at work so i can see him!
he's finished pencilling a new first page for In Shining Armor. he's going to start that story all over again from another point in the story's timeline. i'm glad he's starting to work on it again. 8^)
