That Merry Red Geyser
Posted by on March 17, 2007 - whine p.m.

The cold didn't get so bad this time, but I still have fond memories of last time. I also like how when my stomach was (maybe) bleeding, I, being full of advil, felt fine. I didn't really want to stop though, because then it might actually start to hurt. Sneaky bastards.

I've been better for about three weeks, but I don't draw much now, which suuuuuuucks. I've got an awesome internship instead of school this semester, but regardless of awesome the content, it's still eight to ten hours at a desk everyeday. I made a quick breakdown to explain the lack of posts:

~~7:40 a.m. - Stagger out of bed.~~
~~7:50 a.m. - Stagger out of bed.~~
~~8:00 a.m. - Stagger out of bed.~~
~~8:10 a.m. - Stagger out of bed.~~
8:20 a.m. - Stagger out of bed.
8:21 a.m. - Shower, dress, schlep outside.
8:50-9:20 a.m. - Wait for bus for embarrassingly short ride for work.
9:30-9:45 a.m. - Arrive at work, consume banana, possibly cereal. Begin work.
12:ish p.m. - Eat. Play pool with other interns. Deny fierce addiction to pool. Play more pool.
1:ish p.m. - Get back to work.
3:00 p.m. - Become struck by furious motivation to draw something or animate something or finish that opengl toy or start some earth shatteringly ambitious project.
3:02 p.m. - Keep working.
6:30 p.m. - Weigh going home vs. getting more work done.
7:00 p.m. - Leave work thinking about all the things left to do tomorrow.
7:08 p.m. - Miss the bus because it came early.
7:50 p.m. - Catch the bus as it arrives late.
8:20 p.m. - Get home, have long yet sparse conversation spanning three separate rooms with Dan and Kyle about what to do for dinner. Express desire to not cook if it's a weeknight because I'm lame and it's getting late, even though they already know because I said the same thing everyday.
8:40 p.m. - Get a sandwich or something.
8:55 p.m. - Eat sandwich or something. Read mail. Read a bazillion webcomics.
9:10 p.m. - Think about that thing I thought about at work, consider working on it and getting energized vs. remaining a zombie and getting to sleep on time.
9:40 p.m. - Continue to contemplate while aimlessly browsing the intarweb instead of doing something.
10:00 p.m. - Decide it's too late to do anything and that I should try to get some sleep soon.
11:40 p.m. - wtf how is it 11:40 already I need to get to sleep.

And there we are! That's not completely fair to Dan and Kyle, they cook, we've all just been busy lately. Again, extremely awesome internship that I'm infinitely grateful for, but sitting at a desk thing a billion hours a day and not having time for other stuff is getting to me, regardless of how great the job is. Erggh. It's a good thing I'm way over the hill at 21 and I'm not spending the prime of my life shut up in doors staring at a screen 5 days a week. Man, that would be stupid.

Maybe I'm just tired and getting sick but hwoowowahoaohwaohao this is one of the coolest things I've seen all year: daskfalkfalkdflinkname. And yes I know people have done similar things before but shut up shut up shut up shutupshstupsuphpush. Also, I keep missing chances for random holiday pictures harrrrrrrrgh oh well.

184. Video: Edith and I are up late ~~studying for midterms~~ watching crazy German music videos from the 90s. I'll miss college.

183. Video: Edith, the darling lass pictured above, will be performing this later this semester. I'm not sure what the protocol is when you find out your girlfriend is a zombie, but I guess I'm glad to have advanced warning that she'll be eating my brains at some point.

182. Video: Women in Western Art. Pretty niftay.

181. Comic: Copper is updating again! Glee!

180. Japanese Insanity Guitar Bear Pink Japan: WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?

179. Video: Pac Man invasion. Old, I guess, but still required viewing.

178. Comic: Piled Higher and Deeper: So awesome! Also makes me not want to go to gradschool. Though, it worked out for my dad anyway, so who knows.

177. Artist: JF Bruckner: Oh yeah, jfb is awesome too! Right, right, more artists and comics, I forget so easily...

176. Comic: Copper: Copper is my favorite webcomic. Every strip is inspiringly beautiful and bursting with imagination, but beyond that, they consistently resonate with profundity without screaming "Look at ME, aren't I profound!?" I tried to write a lot more corny praise, but just go read all of them instead, you won't be sorry. I was hoping to wait for Kazu Kibuishi to get back to it so I could scream about its return, but it's been quite a while already, so I'll just link it again once that happens.

175. Artist: Mitsui. Life must be hard when you're this awesome. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

174. Comic: The Unfeasible Adventures of Beaver and Steve. I don't actually read this often, but the toaster knob makes me want to. That sentence will make no sense as soon as they update.

173. Humor: Kyle linked me to this, but I can't imagine why. P.S. Kyle sucks.

172. Comic: Socks. Okay, Socks is also amazing. I need to read through both these soon. Yargh.

171. Comic: Minus. Leo just linked me to minus, and it is aggggghjustgoreaditIcan'tthinkofwhattowriteitisamazing.

170. Flash Game: Fancy Pants. Fancy Pants!!! Made me want to drop everything and make an awesome speedy platformer with simple but incredibly smooth smooth animation with my roommates. Who knows what they'd do, but Kyle already agreed to it. Right Kyle? Study for your midterms to signify "yes."

169. Random: Revenge of Zoom Quilt.

168. Comic: Sinfest. How could you not know about Sinfest already? :|

167. Apps: doPdf. People keep asking how to write out pdfs. If you don't own Acrobat Pro, apparently this works.

166. Humor: Then Japan puts Berkeley to shame in the flash mob arena. But c'mon, it's Japan, it's probably weird when stuff like that doesn't happen.

165. Humor: Berkeley ninja flash mob battle royale round 1 fight.
