Coughing Up A Lung

Dammit. I'm sick again. And gosh, it's been a long time since I've been back here. Thanks for all the support, guys. :)

I can't believe how much tv I've watched in the past two days. It's disgusting. We're talking back to back episodes of Desperate Housewives. I think this is a new low.

On the more positive side, I learned how to Knit from my grandmother over winter vacation and am half way through with making a multi colored scarf. :D Exciting!

I'm still unemployed -- which blows, but what can you do -- however, I did manage to sneak off to vegas this past weekend to help my dad promote these bad boys: http://www.meggaboom.com at CES (which, for all you non-l33t people, is the Consumer Electronics Showcase). And I thought Comic-con was huge. I stand corrected. It was like glimpsing into the future. The latest thing, being 3D television.

I dunno, on one hand, I thought it was bitchin' cool. On the other, I was utterly disgusted with the fact that there are still people homeless and starving out there. It's like, consumerism gone elitist. I dunno. There were so many things that were cool - but nothing that I really needed. Y'know?

Also, what really disgusts me is the fact that the whole concept of recycling is bullsh*t. About 40% of the things we recycle actually get recycled. Because it costs more to recycle than to just throw it in the dump, and there aren't nearly enough processing plants. Grrrrrr!!!!

Anyway, I'm sick. Drugs are taking effect now I think. Time to go to bed.
Adios!

Disney Marvel Merger

My submission for Draw Off #21.

Hey. It could happen.

Jumping Ship

Cory had his last day at MLG on friday, and to mark the occasion, I made a card. Which, I thought was pretty clever... but of course, all of my ideas are clever. lol. *shameless plug* Anyway, thought I'd share.

Here's the front:

And here's an insert:

And now that it was announced today that Disney bought out Marvel for 4 billion dollars, who knows what the future holds? But one thing's for sure: things are going to get weird. Really weird. Kingdom Hearts weird.

I suck. Blood?

Came up with this funny idea today while talking to Conner about RDJ (Robert Downey Jr)'s announcement about taking on the role of the vampire Lestat. Yes. Apparently, it is true.

I have no excuses. I will stop making them. I will get a job. It will be awesome. And everything will be okay.

Sick Sick Sick

I wanted to start a sort of daily sketch diary thing. I dunno how successful I am going to be at this, but I do want to make a solid effort for at least a week. Here's the catch though: I'm behind right now, because I've got other, more pressing things to attend to.

And as of today, I lost my voice. :( Meh.

Do You Love Me?

Draw Off #19: Scary Comic Con Goers!

"I'm Old Greggggggggg!!!!!!! I'm a scaly man fish! I've got a mangina!"
ROFLMAO. Mmm... Bailey's. Creamy. Creamy beige.

I sincerely hope I see an Old Gregg Cosplay this Friday.
Don't know Old Gregg? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? ZOMG.

Wow. I can't tell you guys how close I came to missing my own Draw Off challenge. Sheesh. That would've been embarrassing. I've been so gosh darn busy, it's crazy. T_T. The whole losing a job thing doesn't help either.

Anyway, wheee~! Comic-Con! Yay!

FIGHT!!

So, I got some pretty bummer news yesterday. Unless a miracle happens, MLG Productions is closing, indefinitely by September. Which means... JOB HUNT TIME IS ON!!

So, if any of you like me... I'm up for hire! :D

(--> My submission for Draw Off #18)

Ideally, I'd like to do character design. But I know it's uber hard to break into. Still, I might as well aim high. Y'know?
:Sigh: Seriously. When life gives you lemons, you can either make lemonade, or throw them at people. I kinda feel like throwing them at the moment, but I'm gonna make the lemonade.

And I guess, while I'm at it, I'll share a drawing I did for Snakebite.


Time to fight the good fight!!
