Not a Morning Person
Not so much.
It's been a chore since the last post to get up at a reasonable hour. Usually I'm kicking my ass out the door just as the bus is rolling up to the stop. Which is a damn convenience having a bus-stop literally 8 steps out the front door. (I'm estimating, mainly because it's a smallish walk, and I'm too lazy to go outside and check. Just assume I'm right because I always am.)
REASONS FOR LACK OF POSTING:
1) I'm in a relationship with something other than Halo3. It's a wonderful and great thing, but it's got me in a bind for time leaving behind the low-priority things. Re: anything computer-centric. Apparently buying sandals and Bermuda shorts overrules staying in contact with my peers.
2) I like watching movies and eating more than posting. It's a harsh truth, but as a large lazy lout (alliterative, natch) I'm compelled to stay in a position of rest on the couch watching things blow up (if I'm lucky)
3) I work. And by work I don't mean I kill time doing things I don't like, standing around helping customers, standing around making sure kids don't drown, sitting around making sure people pay your company money they owe before they buy more shit. I use my body to move things. I pick up and carry large, cumbersome, objects . Move them to another location. And repeat for eight hours a day five days a week.
Not the most mentally taxing job in the world I'll admit. In fact this is one of the best jobs I've had, and the more I work at it the higher up on the list it goes. There's a level of comradery that I haven't experienced at any other job. Which has it's downfalls, when we get too wrapped up in conversation and the work falls by the wayside, at which point the floor manager gently suggests we wait until break to continue the discussion. And by gently persuades, I mean cold-gulches us and shouts a lot.
4) I'm working on a webcomic. Early on in it's life, I don't even have a site yet, let alone material to post. It's an idea I've had for years, and I've recently purchased some literature on the subject. and the best bit of information that I pulled out of the first chapter is "Get off your ass and do it already, you drain on society, you."
I'm paraphrasing of course.
This book covers all the bases. From the initial concept, to posting the final product, to merchandising the fuck out of your life's work and living of the revenue generated by becoming a fatted calf of the merchandise whore.
I'll sell you t-shirts and shit. I don't give a fuck. Just as long as I don't have to lug shit around anymore.
Look forward to it.
END OF REASONS FOR NOT POSTING
So I've started back on the posting bandwagon. In the hope that I'll get into a swing of daily computer activity in preparation for the webcomic. I don't think I'll do daily comic postings at first maybe once or twice a week. Maybe three if you're good. (and give me money)
So there you have it folks. My current life in a very small nutshell. I'll have some more for you tomorrow!
(Give me money!)
