9/3/2004 - So, sketches. Um... penciled, no sources, then inked with a brush. Kinda' with the characters from my graphic novel in mind, although I'm not sure what they'll look like in the end, still a ways from finishing the script.

9/6/2004 - Happy Labor Day (No rest for the wicked here). So yeah, today, Lenny and Susan, the planned feast, the gathering, as was planned in the strip last week. Hope it wasn't to weird of a somewhat unexplained jump.

9/7/2004 - Worked all day on Labor Day on Little Dee, and now I'm going to watch a movie with my sweetie, so I'm bumping Bruno, and instead of Bruno's normal schedule, this week Bruno will run Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Today (Tuesday) I am running two pieces of artwork done by the amazing Bill Mudron and Dylan Meconis respectively (posted in order I was given them). They are both amazing and talented people and I love these drawings and feel amazed they think so highly of my work here.
This does mean that I likely won't get to the sketchblog this week, but this might be okay being that I am doing a whirlwind wedding tour September 18th-20th and am desperately trying to get ahead in preparation.

a name="20040910">9/10/2004 - As stated, Bruno instead of sketches this week. I had planned to do sketches also, but I'm sick tonight, and so I stuck to just the strip, and now a quite fun movie, and sleepie-bear.

9/16/2004 - Only Bruno could get away with saying that. The equestrain indeed. Quite the life the lassie lead.
Hm. Not me though. If you've noticed she's in a contemplative "not sure what next" kind of space this last month or so, it's merely a projection of my own life overwhelmedly confused in a contemplative sort of way stuff.
I am on a sort of plan though. I plan to pay off my debt. It looks like I will be hired on as a state employee in Washington. An actual "not temporary" state employee. I'm about 20k in the hole, so it may take a couple of years, but yeah. Weird, me being all responsible maybe-like. Like maybe "like" as in we'll see how well I follow through.
Then, it's just me, and comics, and the rest of my life. :)

9/17/2004 - These are drawings from long ago. Long long ago.
I'm off to a wedding in Virginiga on Saturday, and one in Rhode Island on Sunday. Lotsa' driving.

-------------------------
9/23/2004 - If you're wondering, I'm still alive here. Just been too busy between life and my two strips to be able to post. Not that I am without ideas to post on, but simply am stretched further than I am stretchable already.
Although, of note, you may notice that today's strips is not a rectangle (chunk missing out of top-right). I'm going to allow myself to play with that some here and there. Not too much, the strips are still designed for the 8.5x5.5 books, but still, just some light experimenting here and there as it seems appropriate.
The weddings were great, and I made the trip alive and half-a-can of cheeze-wiz later.

-------------------------
9/24/2004 - Not much to say about today's drawings (hm, I kinda' always say that and then blab endlessly, don't I?). The ink drawing was a trace of a pic from National geographic. I have been very pleased with the improvement of my inking. Happy-happy. Like this one a lot. Inked black area is your friend.
The rest is just doodles, couldn't seem to concentrate on much. The top one was going to be some maiden being carried away by pixes or something, now it's some guy being carried away by dwarfs. Less grass and flowers strewn about. The bottom left guy reminds me of Jenn's "Griffen", and then there's the naked doodles. Well, they kinda' explain themself, don'tcha know.

9/27/2004 - Hey, so i was looking in the library for books regarding the male-gender stereotypical trait of commitmentphobia, and every book i came across was about how to spot the men with that trait, avoid them, or get rid of them. None for the person with the problem and what the hell it's about.
I mean, I'm a nice guy, and I care deeply about the people in my life who I'm close to, but I remain closed off and still want to know the hell why. So anyhow. If anyone knows any book titles, please feel free to email them my way. My current method is to ignore the feelings in my head telling me to split, but I'd rather they actually shut up and let me feel any other emotion whatsoever.
Anyhow. The neverending saga. I certainly don't have life figured out, and still am searching.
