Here’s another character sketch from the in-progress secret comics project. He’s a minor character, and one that I don’t think ever actually shows up in the story (he’s referenced by other characters once or twice, but isn’t involved in the actual plot). Though he isn’t someone who shows up in the first arc, he might have a place somewhere on down the road in another story, so I thought I’d take a crack at him tonight anyway.
The concept art is starting to roll in. Its got me pretty excited about the whole thing.
I got a haircut today. No big deal, it happens a couple of times a year. But today, the woman cutting my hair accidentally started to shave off my sideburn. I don’t know why she did it (I said “trim,” but I guess she misunderstood), but the damage is done. It should grow back in a week or two, but in the meantime, I look a bit lopsided.
Today’s sketch is some design work for the secret comic project. It’s a non-lethal weapon that fires capsules which expand and encompass the target. Fun stuff. Too bad I’m no good at designing objects.
I do love playing Hanging with Friends (XEYeti, if you’re up for a game), but it doesn’t make any sense that it’s taking place over a volcano. I mean, aren’t those stakes just a little high?
This conversation happened. I kinda love my sisters-in-law.
The wife and I both spent most of the evening sound asleep. Group nap time is the best.
It was a rough day at work today. Not because of any specific incident, it was just a rough time. And now I’m watching yesterday’s Colbert Report and seeing an idiot try to say that human beings coexisted at the same time as dinosaurs.
And he’s a guy who was responsible for setting state science curriculum standards in Texas. Kinda want him to never hold a position of authority ever again.
We have a couple of teachers who take everything the students say and do personally. You can’t do that. Especially when you teach special education. Kids say and do lots of bullshit, and they like pushing boundaries. Letting them get you worked up is letting them win.
