I wish i could draw faster…or conscript aurora borealis as my drawing slave. >D He's always making new comics so quickly.

But I have two fairly long comics to do and a bunch of short ones. My dream is to make a short story in every genre, if i keep at comics for a hobby i bet i can do it by the time i'm 35?

Posted at 9:05AM, May. 6, 2011

Me? Quickly? The tablet disaster totally knocked me out of my creative zone. HAven't done any actual comics in over a month now.

Posted at 2:05PM, May. 6, 2011

Aurora, you've done more comics in the last 1 month and 1 day, than i have in my last 3 years on drunk duck.
——-

I've done 60 days on this diet now.I've been holding steady at 156. Lost all the weight in the first month, and pretty much maintained since.

and also, i set a personal best on the 3 mile run today. pretty awesome.

I've learned two things today; no one will call me unless I'm in a bathroom, and I won't be told I have a case due for review Monday till close of business Friday!

Today someone pulled right in front of me in traffic, nearly causing an accident, and they had a novelty license plate holder that said "WARNING: I DRIVE LIKE A CULLEN." Like being proud of having shitty taste in novels isn't bad enough, now she must be proud of being a shitty driver too?

So it's fine for her, but I'm not a sparkly vampire. If she gets in an accident with me because of her shitty vampire driving I'll probably just die in a tragic welter of blood and also pure unfiltered rage at her poor aesthetics.

I'm glad that the comic I'm working on is not doing that bad.

I'm not glad that 1/3 of the people to see the last comic got the joke.

I'm not glad because it was an experimental thing that I thought was cool.

:(

I'm also feeling like a huge dick lately.

Not on the forums, unless its supposed to be taken in a joking way, but in real life, whatever that is.

And as usual I just realize that I overreact to everything and nothing at the same time.

—

I'd like to have a story comic one day on here but I don't think it'll ever happen.

I'm just far too lazy.

On that note, time to actually write that script that i owe someone…

Eh…mothers day is coming up. /hrrrrm

My cat has lost so many of her eyebrow whiskers she has bald spots. Also i missed her birthday(again) on may 1st, so she's 11 years old now. I really hope she lives another 10 years…

Wow… woke up from a bad dream. Dreamt that I had a huge gash in my neck and was slowly bleeding to death. Then I felt something cutting my neck open even more… the ants were making the gash larger. And on the TV was a news story about a series of gruesome murders… all the victims were diabetic with large gashes in their necks and the police are baffled. To them these look like homocides, but they can't find evidence pointing to the killer and none of the victims are connected save for their diabetes… O_O

My dad has been going out 2 times every day in his truck…he doesn't work anymore and gives me the most inane stupid reasons when i ask. And when i asked him he made something up about the rake being broken and needing a new one(it's not broken) and then 'i need to get cell phone service' yet he's going all the way into town.

I'm gonna confront him about this…i can't tail him since he knows what my car looks like and i'd probably fail at it and get lost. He better not be selling drugs or having an affair. i'll break my foot off in his ass >8[

Posted at 1:05PM, May. 7, 2011

Perhaps he just wants to get out.

Behold our revolution. On wednesday, we celebrate the birth of our saviour. The Duck.

I was off the diet for the weekend. I feel like crap. But sometimes you just gotta give into temptation. I'm all cooked up and ready for the week tho. Tomorrow is pry gonna feel good, as i'm super loaded with carbs.

*disclaimer*
This is not atkins, i can still have carbs. I just get them from fruits and vegetables, instead of bread, which basically takes up all the daily recommended before you even get to fruits and vegetables…

Ok, guys- so what'd I miss?

It should be Anno Duck. In the year of our Duck.

Speaking of drunk ducks I saw two of my favorite drunks at work over the weekend. One had come back from a long stay at the hospital and looked like a new man.
Knowing so many recovering alcoholics dumping the "drunk" from the site title is a good idea. Also knowing how many of the artists here will hopefully soon be admitting their problem and starting their recovery… :D

You get plastered to the point where you can't stand more than twice a week you need to address your drinking problem. If you drink you can't get drunk to the point where you could spill your drink! The gods enforce this because before you enter paradise you will have to imbibe every swallow of blessed alcohol you spilled over a lifetime. There is no alcohol in hell. So teaches the blessed faith of ethynology; the worship of ethyl alcohol.

Two twelve hour shifts, I survived, even had fun and love the fact that none of the residents who live by day know who I am.
"You new here?"
"I've been here for three years. I work overnights."
"What's your name again?"
I love skating under the radar. ;)

On those long shifts I finished all the pages of my current comic. It will conclude in July. Yippee! Proper planning has brought it all together. Now on to other things.

Ooooh so many little web dramas!

Aaand about 14 pages of Pinky TA- yeah I'm that slow.
