Yeah. It’s official. We are now “Officially” together.
Officially. Whatever that means.
It’s official.
Official.
Like, now, if it was in a legal case, they’d use it as evidence.
…that’s pretty cool.
Oh, and incase you didn’t catch it yesterday, I’m now a part of the Mediocre Militia, so check out this link and a few pieces of my work!
I believe each of us control our own existence. I’m rather agnostic right now, religiously. I haven’t really found my own way. Maybe I’ll become a Buddhist.
Like, if I hadn’t taken Jen out on that date, or if I hadn’t asked her out on that date, or if that butterfly hadn’t shaken it’s wings in Taiwan…
I like thinking about stuff like that. It’s rather liberating. I’m happy every single day I’ve got this free-thought stuff, and I plan on using it till I can use it no more.
You feel me?
Oh, and by the way: over the past few days my pageviews have been increasing ever so slightly. If this keeps up maybe someday I’ll get as many as Acadia! A man can dream, can’t he?
Thanks for readin’.
Jen literally “glomped” me today. Really. She like, tackled me to the ground. Luckily some grass padded my fall. And I believe my life really did flash before my life, because as I was falling all I could think was: “This is totally going in the comic.”
(You also might’ve noticed I like to talk about what I write about in the comic the following day to those who don’t (or haven’t been) read the comic. I never mention the comic, mind you, I just talk along the same lines of what I had been thinking the night before.)
Also, I’ve noticed that Rob doesn’t always look the same in every panel I draw him in… it’s weird.
Anyway, have you guys checked out these new profiles? Of course you have, because I’ve added every single on of you to my friends list! I mean, you’re my pal if you like my comic (yes, even you I Hate Dirt (you liked it at one point)). Anyway, I’m trying to spice up my profile, and I want Crazy Duck to upload that animation he did a while ago for me to Youtube so I can stick it up there!
And, oh, something just for fun, check out my high score on my profile for the CAT! game. Go on. Check. I dare you!
Sometimes you wake up, and you’re having a really bad day, then you get together with your friends, and the day skyrockets into something awesome. That’s pretty much every one of my days.
Other than Fridays. I dunno why–I like ‘em. End of week probably?–definitely.
But guys, seriously, I’m looking for some good/cool/rockin’ music, be it acoustic, rock, or other stuff. So Here’s some music I listen to, tell me if you know any other good stuff to match with it!
The Killers, Incubus, Joshua Radin, System of a Down, 30 Seconds to Mars, Audioslave, Blue October, Breaking Benjamin, My Chemical Romance, Panic! at the Disco, The Hives, Smashing Pumpkins.
Help me out here, I’m looking for sommore stuff.
Ha ha ha ha ha HA! I told you it was a happy ending!
Some of you (Acadia) might’ve noticed I wasn’t on AIM or YIM the past two nights; I didn’t want to ruin the surprise! If anyone had asked, I probably would’ve burst it out in a spring of joy.
No seriously.
Anyway, this one’s EXTRA long (the equivalent of 2 strips) because I had so much to fit in, not to mention the dramatic pauses and artist devices!
So! I don’t know if me and Jen are “together,” but we definitely went “together,” and we definitely kissed “together.” Kids these days–so insecure.
And you know what the weird thing was? It was all out of instinct! That’s right, it’s like my mind went blank and I didn’t even know what I was doing! It was crazy. And somewhat of a relief. In general = it rocked. Plain and simple!
Listen to me ramble on! I must be so excited!
There was something else I was–oh! Sorry about the late update, too. Usually I get these things here right at 10:00 PST, but this one and the last one have been a little delayed! Don’t be hatin’ though! I’ll try and get these back on schedule!
So–Woo! That’ll be all!
And it wasn’t bad at all!
Woah, woah, woah, woah!
This one’s a little late! I bet you can guess why! That’s right, I just got back from thing shin-dig with Jen about 50 MINUTES ago, so, like, I had to draw this one in a HURRY! You might see a few messy spots… that’s cuz I didn’t clean it up all the way–cuz it’s so late!
Oh, and this is a two-parter! That’s right, tomorrow tune in to hear how it ended!–but don’t ask me how it ended, because I don’t want to ruin the surprise for you!
Let’s just say it was a happy ending, and now I feel like I’ve eaten 2 lbs of candy.
Sugar high!
Maybe I didn’t use the word “instead,” but I think that’s what I meant.
So yeah. We’re going to the movies tomorrow after school. I don’t want to be cliche, but the movies are always fun. Always fun.
Grindhouse looks cool though. I doubt I’m going to take her to see it. I think I was just saying that for the joke. We’ll check what else is out when we get there.
And… uh… that pretty much sums up today. Usually I have more to talk about! Man, tomorrow’s Friday though. That’s cool.
So. I dunno. Talk to you guys tomorrow!
PS. I just checked my TiVo. Dudes! I thought The Office’s season was over, but I was surprised by TWO NEW EPISODES! Damn, you guys! I loved it! What a treat on a Thursday Night! Rockin’.
But maybe I won’t have to make it up much longer?
Oh, so check it out: Run Kid Run ain’t playing in Cali anytime soon, but did you know they were a Christian band?
I had no freakin’ idea. I haven’t heard them talk about God once in their songs. Hm. Maybe there’s and underlying subtext I’m missing here… or subliminal messages telling me to go to church! Oh crap. I’m getting a sudden urge to pray.
In other news, I’m rather happy to be back in school. Two weeks is enough break for me (I’m always bored to death over summer) so now I get to hang out with my friends again! Woo. Hm. I added a period there. That makes it sound rather sarcastic.
I should use that literary device more often.
PS. I was discussing generic comments with Slimredninja, and here’s an exerpt I think everyone can take to heart:
“But, in all honesty, leaving generic comments isn’t much better . I understand you think it’s encouraging, but when I get comments like that, it just makes me feel like the reader doesn’t care, and isn’t worth my time.
I try (when I comment) to point out flaws, or impressive points of the comic, so the author knows his or her strong points. IMO, generic comments do nothing but frustrate the author, because he’s getting some slipshod, overused, and re-churned-out comment, which has been passed around like a dirty Kleenex.
Sometimes I’ve commented , most of the time I haven’t, mostly because that would reinforce generic comments, and that’s something I just don’t want to do. Maybe I’ve had it wrong this whole time, and really are reading the comics and giving honest opinion, but when give every comic click on a 5, it just doesn’t make it seem like it’s worth anything .”
This is one of those “I didn’t give you the whole story because I wanted to spice it up for the reader”-type deals. I did finally get what band Jen likes, and I’m going to google up some tickets to a concert. Only thing is, with this funeral coming up I can’t do it before the break–so I guess she’ll have to wait.
Alright. Also, I’ve been getting some awesome guest comics from you fans, and that rocks out of control, but if you’re willing to make one and don’t know what to make, here are some ideas:
1. A mock up comic (where you add yourself into the comic or just base the comic off of you) (this seems to be the most popular option).
2. A single picture of a character you like, maybe an illustration or something.
Those are the two most common that I know of, if you guys come up with anything else and want to contribute tell me if you can or not in the forum thread, and then PQ me with your entry. I’ll try and return the favor!
Man, oh man oh man.
Man. You guys know?
Girls. Right?
Right?
I mean come ON.
By the way: You all rock.
