tea time! guest comic, again

22 June, 2009

Well, this one isn’t nearly as good as the other one, but yeah, I “drew,” another guest comic for Tea Time! because I am an “artist,” and that’s what artists “do.”

See it today HERE and bookmark it. Also go through their archives because there’s some amazing stuff in there. Also they’re updating 3 times a week now so yeah, hurray, read the comic it’s good I swear. Also they are selling a shirt that I want, will you buy it for me.

summer highlights and a bad thing

14 June, 2009

OK so I am here in Colorado and well I’ve been watching a lot of things. I started writing a new movie that I’m pretty excited about and well and stuff yeah.

I watched Vicky Cristina Barcelona and really really liked it which was a little surprising but oh well. I tore through the first two seasons of Dexter and boy was that involving and fun and stuff yeah. Sit Down, Shut Up and The Goode Family are two great cartoons that will never be on television again. 8 1/2 blew my mind and so did Star Trek and Drag Me To Hell. I swear to you Drag Me To Hell is amazing I swear. Glee is a show you should look out for because the pilot was just so fun and energetic and bright and happy! I’m watching all of Firefly right now and it’s great but I’m awfully scared that it is going to get really sad.

Which isn’t so bad but I’m in the middle of reading Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close finally, and I’m not halfway through it and I can already tell it’s going to be one of my favorite things ever but I can also tell that by the end of it I will have sobbed like a baby at least once, OK. And I finished Duma Key and it was pretty good, it would be fun to make a movie out of. It is probably bad that I think like that.

Oh and as for comics well Doom Patrol is amazing, better than Watchmen I’d say, which is losing its favor hardcore for me. Also Young Liars and really anything by David Lapham (like maybe Silverfish or Stray Bullets) you should really really read. And OK, maybe I am putting together a game of Dungeons & Dragons, and maybe I am already participating in two campaigns, but darn it, it is great, really, it’s just that a lot of terrible people like it, and it is helping me flex some writing muscles that I didn’t know existed, OK? OK.

Oh and I found out about Past Lives this week, and it is like a Godsend, they are so wonderful. It is everyone from The Blood Brothers except for Johnny and Cody, and boy is it different but amazing. And also my friend Ned showed me ART the Only Band in the World and oh my goodness oh my Lord I am in love with them so much. I can’t even describe it.

But today something awful happened. I was driving my car and then a squirrel ran out in front of me and I braked really hard but I couldn’t stop fast enough and I felt a bump because, yeah, I hit the squirrel. BUT HERE IS THE WORST PART. DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE SAD, BECAUSE IT IS VERY SAD AND ALSO VERY MORBID. OK I WARNED YOU. I looked behind me like as if to make sure I really did hit it, I guess. And yeah I did definitely hit the squirrel. But I only hit the back of him. And he was still alive, trying to drag himself the rest of the way across the road, scurrying but mangled, with his back legs kicking in directions they shouldn’t kick, so I had to turn away, and then I almost cried, OK? Maybe I am hyper-sensitive, alright, I know that, but man that upset me. It is the worst.

There are probably other things I wanted to talk about but OK, yes, whatever. I am sorry if I am bringing you down. It’s OK. I’m OK.

Anyways, those are the highlights. I hope maybe this is nice, in contrast to the last thing I wrote, which was much more structured and terse. Who knows. I don’t know, not really.

Next post will be better, I swear.

Here's me and Rex! We're smiling! And giving thumbs-ups! Everything's cool!
