2008 Day 111
dear blog,
as of tomorrow, i will be at least 20% better looking. That's right... I'm getting zapped. The "laser" will be shot directly into my "eye ball", correcting my "vision". between the eye surgery and the new car, i figure i am now 25%-30% more dateable.
in other news, mom was in the hospital again. it was really more to do with the original stuff, which they weren't quite sure what it was. they have now reached the conclusion that it was vascular, have taken steps to fix it, and she is recovering nicely.
i'm working on redesigning www.freaknsqueeks.com . i was informed, by many different people, that the site design was a huge roadblock to reading / worshipping my comic. the redesign has been going on for about a week, and at the moment, i'm just redirecting the .com to the webcomicsnation page. this is because there is all that nice code over there. i, knowing nothing about code, like the fact that they have a nice plug 'n' play system. but, there are things i wish i had control over that i don't. and, since i don't really understand the code, i really can't change a lot of stuff. my coding ability doesn't go beyond creating a link and embedding an image. and no, i'm not going to learn code. i've tried. i've failed. i'm not built that way.
i fear i may have to move fns off of wcn. which would mean moving 1200+ strips. and re-uploading / making pages for all of them. i have this fear because i'm starting to think that comicpress might be the best way to go. but, we'll see. i want to see what the new comicspace venture will offer in terms of features before i make any decisions.
i've also been drawing my new weekly comic, picture imperfect. PI is quickly becoming far more autobiographical than i thought it would be. i haven't officially announced anything, but there is a www.picture-imperfect.com now. i figure once i know what's what with wcn/comicspace, and i have more than a dozen strips up, i'll make some noise about it.
this weekend, i'm driving over to wisconsin for a one-day comic show on sunday. i really don't know what to expect, but the table is free, so i just have to pay for gas and a hotel. 10 million dollars later, we'll see what happens.
