First, how many of these posts are entitled some variation of "a few things"? I'll have to do a tally. Similarly I'll have to do a tally of how many times I ask myself how many times I've titled something with the same phrase.

The main things, which coincidentally all have to do with fiction:

• Currently I've got my fake blog entirely plotted and it ( Read more... )

Aw yeah, bulleted entry time.

• It is 2011, I almost rang in the new year at a gas station with Mitch and Florence but we ran out at the last minute. It was fun.
• I bought a new bag to replace my crap one, it's this bag. I'm pretty stoked about it. Big enough for my laptop and some books, looks relatively sturdy, reviewed well, and has a LOT of pockets ( Read more... )

Obligatory NaNo update: 41k and counting. I've been writing 3000 words per day in a desperate bid to catch up. I really, really want to win.

Now that that's out of the way...

• Thanksgiving was fun, good food was eaten, I polished off the last of the mashed potatoes about 10 minutes ago.
• My parents found out about the car being towed and paid the bill ( Read more... )

• A combination of business and depression has meant that I haven't seen a lot of people very much lately, and I'm sorry for being so antisocial. I'm working on coming out of it.
• Last friday I got way too drunk at a stranger's house and on saturday I had the worst hangover of my entire life (and I usually don't get hangovers) so I've decided that I'm ( Read more... )

• I am basically itching for a new journal layout, but I'm incredibly picky and none are meeting my standards right now.
• The last week and a half have been spent looking frantically for a house, which I am doing from Phoenix while Kat is either in CA or in Tucson. I have 2 people who need to call me back about touring houses, and Kat needs a place by ( Read more... )

Couple of things that have been on my mind lately:

• I'm having a better summer than usual, mostly because I seem to have gotten over my inability to call people when I want to hang out with them. As a result of this I'm hanging out with Florence, Mitch, and Lacey a lot, which is of course very enjoyable.
• Florence and Mitch are both really into punk ( Read more... )

• Today (feb 1) is official Hourly Comic day, which means I have to draw a few panels about every hour of my day that I'm awake. If you recall, I have done it before here, but today it's official! 
• I'll post the thing tomorrow, since I still have to scan it and I'm not done yet.
• Also happening today: Liz is cute! I like walking to classes with her.  ( Read more... )

Yep another one of these. I don't want to talk a lot today, I'm hell-a busy.

• I broke up with Amanda like 3 hours ago. It was the fastest breakup ever and we're still friends, and as per usual I angsted and guilted beforehand only to have the actual event be surprisingly easy.
• I've spent the entire day working on journal comics and I'm determined ( Read more... )

Bullet points again today, I think.

• I've been feeling very creative as of late, but haven't really been doing much with it. Well, that's not true, I've been doing the comic and the blue ink book. I just feel like I should be writing something and I'm not...maybe I'll do a story over break.
• Work was weird today. My boss got sick and left early, and ( Read more... )

So, bulleted points again. Maybe that should just be the theme of this el-jay.

• I downloaded a bunch of Philip Glass music today, and I'm loving it. I think I'm gradually becoming a fan of instrumental/classical music. I'm not sure why, and I'm still not that jazzed by older classical musicians, but I'm starting to really enjoy minimalist composers ( Read more... )
