Jim and I spent Saturday filming two reviews, and we got one of them up and posted very early this morning. It's for the movie Hanna, which just came out last Friday. Don't miss the end of this one. Watch it here!  

I'm behind a few days on my webcomic. This isn't where I wanted to be today; I wanted to have this whole week done already, but yesterday proved to be a little too busy for that feat. 

Honestly, I'm feeling a little sick to my stomach. I think that I'd rather just have a little nap. Ugh. How're you? 

Jim and I just completed the next episode of Super Happy Awesome Movie Time. This time we review David Cronenberg's "Crash" (1996). 

Kinda NSFW and not family-friendly, because we're discussing a NC-17 movie. (SHAMT episodes up to now have been family friendly.) 

Hello dears;

I made another little video blog thing, but this is much more recent, compared to that old one from 2005.  
Here it is! : www.youtube.com/watch 

Be well, dearies. 

Mini-episode of SHAMT, by Jim, in which he spoils everything, but in the best way possible. :)

Hello dears.

I had originally posted a vlog on this LJ account back in September of 2005 (youtube had its official launch in November of 2006). The other day, I found a full-quality .dv file of this vlog, and watched it. I decided to add notes and re-post it, on my youtube channel. I have done so here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KC3wOQ0l4T4

And now, it had swallowed itself.

How're you?

Snow. Now I remember why I left New England.

Ten years and seven days ago I arrived in Albuquerque, and now, here I am back in Connecticut. So much has changed, but the weather hasn't.

I'll take too-hot summers over too-cold winters, anytime.

In other news: Happy New Year! How're you? Whaterdoing?

As my new year's resolution, I will keep doing Beware the Slumpy without fail. Indeed.

What about you dears?

I've been mucking about with a little comic, which I've been posting daily over at bewaretheslumpy.com. I posted about it on facebook, but I didn't poke you folks over here, sorry!

Beware the Slumpy was made just to get something out there, even if the artwork is poorly drawn and the jokes are questionable. The Cult of Done Manifesto was somewhat inspirational in its creation. I find that if I can just throw something out there, it’s a rewarding and terrifying experience.

Rewarding, because: “hey, look what I made!”

Terrifying, because: “oh dear god why did I make that?”

When I can't sleep, I sit down at night once or twice a week and create a bunch of comics. As I write this, the 19th comic is up, they are drawn up to #29, and scripted up to #47.

I'm a bit of an insomniac. It provides me with lots of time to work on this. Comics are often posted just after midnight, Eastern time, but not always.

I don't know if there is an intended goal here. I've often thought about making a comic, since I was much younger; this is an exploration of that voice.

And yes, I know that the art sucks. That's the point.

Okay, going to try to go sleep, again. :)

1. Hi, it's me. I've just had an outstanding weekend; so why am I so grumpy?


2. I was able to get together with Jim on Saturday and get some Soulpits action going. He brought his guitar, and I fired up the violins. We're still getting used to each other's musical changes since last time we played together, but truthfully, Soulpits kicked ass at the end there. I fully expect it to kick ass again.


3. I was able to connect with an old friend who I have not seen in about a decade. It turns out that she's an old friend of a friend of Nic's (and well, he's a friend of mine now, too!) and she was at a party for him on Sunday. So very awesome.


4. The house is coming together. Yes, house. We're living in Hamden, CT, and it is nice, but lonely. I'm working on being more social, again.


5. I was able to interview someone very very cool for a podcast I'm working on. When it's released, I'll point y'all at it.


6. Albuquerque folks: Anyone know any rapid prototyping places in town, that are friendly to the public? Thanks!


7. This concludes this post. I'd promise more soon, but I'd rather prove it than promise. Fruit.

• 21:16 Safe in CT. Visited Jesse and Kat in NYC today with Ikeru. NYC makes me remember that I have legs. #
