Imagining the frogs are little X-Wings can only help.
The last few weeks have felt pretty stressful. Things that *had* to be done, people I *needed* to see, finding the time to cook a decent meal, finding the time to go for a run, sorting out this site, doodling superheroes, playing with Milly and Molly, reading my book.
At some point the things I love doing turned into chores.
Perhaps chores is a bad word; it’s not that I didn’t want to do these things, it was that I wanted to do all of these things and felt I had to allocate and schedule and plan an designate and that detracts from the essence of fun! Why the hell am I getting so worried about time? I’m spending so much time worrying about not doing everything that I’m still not doing everything but the things I am doing I’m not even enjoying!
Luckily during one of my designated leisure periods I had put on some George Carlin for a bit of background entertainment and this particular bit made me stop, smile, and realise that I should worry a hell of a lot less about time:
About time I sorted this lot out and got back on the horse.
I’ve been tinkering with a new design on and off for months now so I figured I should just publish what’s here and be done with. The categories need sorting out as do a few other things (some of the image assets went a little crazy but I think I’ve fixed them all).
I’ve actually got a lot of stuff I can post that I’ve done done (woot!) – I’ve put a few pics up on my flickr but I’ll be posting more soon (I’ve actually completed one of my long-gestating projects and have a few more waiting in the wings but for the most part I’m just trying to draw for the hell of it).
The opening minutes of Fallout: New Vegas:
It took me the entire clip to place Doc Mitchell’s voice (Saul from BSG) but the whole cast is worth a look – Chandler, Kristofferson, Perlman (of course), Chuck, Sadler, Odo, Worf, Danny Trejo, Rawls, Cyclops, and Wesley Crusher.
Assuming I can wait until Christmas I would like this, Black Ops and Starcraft 2 please Santa.

These remind me of the dude who did microsculptures that could fit in the eye of a needle and hat to sculpt in between heartbeats so he didn’t make a mistake:
