I caught Teh Crud. Teh Brain Crud.

Sickness compromises my brain, Roommate bails me out

Experimenting with grey areas

This reminds me of this thing we used to do in drama class where we'd take vague dialogue and construct scenes by projecting various emotions onto them.

Although this conversation sorta actually happened, give or take a panel.

Emo Storm Thoughts

It's not often you can walk and smoke in Oakland without being asked for a cigarette, or money. So you have to do it when no one in their right mind would be out, like 2am in a miserable wet gale. Recommended!

Thinking aloud: Should I swap out the text above for the text on the sketch journal page, which is crap and annoying to read?

Dimsum, Hanae Mori, not looking away

But then we healed.

Neither here nor there

"She just wanted to pick some stuff up. No big deal."

"God I hate that time, that picking-up-stuff time. I just went through that before I came here. You know that song called, 'Patsy Cline Times Two' I play? That's about me and my ex dividing up our record collections."

"It's a great song."

"Thank you."

Sketch Journal, 1/11/2011 + Mission Comics

And the good news is, City Lights wants more of my books than I expected, and now Mission Comics carries Food Yes Cook No too!

Life is good. (Despite the things you read in my sketch journal.)

Sketch Journal, 1/4/2011

Hey baby, can I make it up to you?

Sketch Journal, 1/10/2011

I personally think a 16-shelf white IKEA Expedit bookcase would solve all my room mess woes, don't you?

Hope everyone had a splendid President's Day weekend!

Sketch Journal, 1/8/2011

I should not be awake at this hour.

Sketch Journal, 1/7/2011

What criteria do you use to select jukebox songs?

In this instance, I chose mine in this format:
1) Past
2) Present
3) Future

Sketch Journal, 1/6/2011

I'm going to try to post a page a week. They might not be consecutive pages, and I can't promise they'll be chronological, either. But a page a week, is what I'm starting with. Here's the 2nd installment.

A New Project

Eric gave me a copy of EMITOWN before the holidays, and it inspired me to start my own sketch journal. I started on January 1st, 2011 and plan to draw a page for every day.

I showed a couple pages to P and N at our last Skype meeting and they suggested I post it online. So here's a page, to start. Maybe mine should be called EmoTown.
