Cupcake Wrapup
Alright, I just thought I’d put a cap on this whole thing before I drop it. It’s been a little heavy in here.
I heard two podcasts recently that really resonated with me, and I’ve edited down a couple morsels of inspiration from them. These are both from The Candid Frame, easily one of my top [...]
“Cupcake” Response Response
So my buddy Joel posted a response blog to my last entry, and I thought I’d rebut, one last time.
His response is exactly the response I was talking about, which is more or less, “You do what you have to do to be able to afford the things you want to do.” But maybe my [...]
I Don’t Want Your Fucking Cupcake
It’s amazing, the effect work has on my general disposition. “Oh, Christ, Bill. Are we complaining about work again?” Number 1: Yes. Number 2: Yes, fuck you.
Unless you’re very close to me (e.g., Nina), I don’t show it much, or I just avoid you, but the past week has worried me a bit. I’m back [...]
Photoblog Relaunch
Me too! Me too!
I’ve been kicking around the idea of doing my own “take a picture every day for a year” project, a project that every camera owner on the planet (or at least on Flickr) seems to be tackling lately. I always talk myself out of it. I mean, I ran Moonplantation (my old photoblog) for just [...]
A Path: Apathy
There was a time in my life, from late high school and for several years afterward, where I embraced a philosophy of my own design, which I called “aggressive apathy.” The idea was that not only did you not give a shit about what everybody else on the planet concerned themselves with, you went out [...]
Where I Live, Where I’m From, Where I’m Spending Christmas
My Slapstick Return to the Workforce
Wow, make a sandwich. This turned out a lot longer than I had planned when I began.
Today was just… off. It wasn’t an awful day or anything, and nothing went horribly wrong, nor was I in a bad mood. Everything was just off.
I knew today wouldn’t be amazing because I’ve been unemployed for a little [...]
Blueberry Mullins, Rei Ayanami
Was digging through old backups, as I do from time to time, and found a collection of the stuff from the first website I ever created, The Living Dead. Thought I’d upload these two unfinished comics from the site, both drawn by Ben. The first one, Blueberry Mullins, I think was an “origin” story, tying [...]
Impulse Purchase: Mini RC Helicopter
Just a week ago or so I had filled up my Amazon credit card enough times over again to get my $25 Amazon gift certificate, but couldn’t really come up with anything to spend it on. $25 is a good portion of a hardcover book, a handful of paperbacks, a down payment on a new [...]
