"I hate... so much... about the things that you choose to be."

Wow, things are happening and happening, and boy have I neglected to say much about them.

Okay so big things:

SPX was two weeks ago, and it was pretttty awesome. Our table was looking really good- everyone just had tons of awesome stuff and I think people were getting excited about the whole Closed Caption gang. We all sold a pretty good amount of comics, met a lot of cool people, and got names out there, not to mention being there for Brian Ralph passing his kidney stone. Good times.

Senior Thesis midterm was one week ago, and it went really well. Our guest critic was Mark Chiarello, the current art director for DC Comics. Despite the fact that my work is nothing like DC, and that DC puts out a lot of crap, Mark was really quite smart and entertaining- and well aware of the crap that his own company makes. He offered some really good advice to me, and between some of his comments and some things Jose had to say today, I'm starting to really understand the things I don't like about my work.
Note to self: form follows content!

Christian's birthday was two days ago, and we had a fun little evening involving singing and candle-blowing twice, as there were two cakes, a rotating guest list, and Christian forgot to make a wish the first time. We had a fun time with our really ghetto set up with his pinata, and played with punch balloons and the sort of gross but fun Spongebob toy I got Christian (and was sort of mocked by the Rite Aid lady).

Christian and I (later joined by Evan) successfully watched like seven or eight episodes of Arrested Development in one sitting last night. (I was at least working while doing so...) It's so funny it hurts. "No, Michael, it's not part of my trick."

"...it's part of my ILLUSION!!!"

So much more has happened lately, why can't I think of any of it?

Laura is all healing up from her bike assault; I don't know how she resists picking her scab, I'd be all over that thing.

It looks like I'm gonna start working for Campus Safety as a desk monitor soon; training is soon and then my first shift is probably Sunday. There goes my only day off! Oh well. More money will be good.

Okay that's all for now, more to come sooner or later.
