Believe it or not, these were the first words I heard this morning, uttered by my wife as she was getting ready for work. I think we've been in the ghetto too long.

Posts have been less frequent lately out of necessity. My schedule is becoming more and more crowded and it's getting more and more difficult to wedge in some healthy blog time. I've received several notes from people praising the Dirty Dishes blog from a couple weeks ago. Is my pain funny to you? Is that it? Battling the devil in our very own home is no joke, you guys. But, anyhow, yes the dishes were finally done, but they're beginning to pile up again.

Hooray, I'm no longer the newest person at work. For some reason, I always breathe a little easier when someone is hired after me. Being new isn't so bad, but being the newest really is. Not that I've got any kind of seniority now, but at least someone else is in the same boat. His name is Kirk.
Kirk is a very talented illustrator/animator. His work is beautiful. So beautiful, in fact, it makes me question whether or not I chose the right business because the guy absolutely leaves me in the dust. I hope I can learn from him. Why the guy isn't working for Cartoon Network, I have no idea. You can view his stuff here:

Some great titles being sent in. If you're waiting, don't. I really don't have that many, but I'm writing the scripts whenever I have time. The one that's made me laugh the hardest thusfar was a submission by my brother-in-law, Greg. Whether or not I write his script, I feel the world deserves to hear his suggestion. I will, however, decline to post it here. You'll have to ask him yourself.

And it seems that my "How I Drew the Monkey" feature on the homepage is making the rounds. It was just a goofball little project, but several folks (many of whom I've neither met nor heard of) are writing in to say, "thanks for the tutorial, this helps." Apparently several comics-community folks are glad to have a few photoshop pointers. Needless to say, I'm very gratified that people are enjoying the feature and finding some benefit from it. To those who wrote in with thanks: you're welcome.

I've decided to do a short web-comic. If it becomes too time-consuming, I'll drop it, but I think I'd really enjoy it. Most of my comic projects don't go anywhere because they involve these epic-length storylines and I simply lose the energy to begin. But, anyhow, I thought a little comic might be fun, something that could be read in about 5 minutes. While I'm dreaming, I may even try my hand at animating it. Ah, who knows.
It's nice to have a website. Finally, a home for my babbling and creative spew.
