Random Notes
In slightly less fangirlish and squealy news, Blood and Chocolate came out on DVD Tuesday and I highly recommend that you rent or buy it if, like nearly everyone, you missed it in the theater.
I will also say that the new Hellboy animated movie, Blood and Iron, is fucking-A awesome. And a lot bloodier and darker than Sword of Storms, the previous one.
And, concluding my movie opinions, Ghost Rider is stupid beyond belief. I want to watch it again right away.
In art news, I'm finishing flat black and white art at a marvelous clip -- about one piece every other day. I hope you lot are prepared to buy some of it once the convention is over! These are small pieces, none larger than 9 x 14, most smaller than 5 x 7. I'd love to see them go to good homes. I have about six pieces so far, and I'm hoping to finish a dozen or so if I have time between boxes. The one I finished tonight is especially charming; I may be keeping her. It's nice to do art that I personally would want to own.
Less good are the continuing side effects from this drug. The worst of the side effects have passed. They were disturbing at first, but they are gone now, I'm none the worse for wear, and all that's left is . . . drowsiness from hell. I'm sleeping 7 - 8 hours a night, which is normal for me. I'm still taking about two one-hour naps a day, and I have very little energy. I don't like this at all. It means I spend most of my time too tired to do much, and consequently I am bored a lot.
As I have nothing exciting to report, I'm going to go and try to work a little more, and hope it cheers me up. I've been a little blue and a lot fretful all day.
