Imagine you have the power to control the speed of time. You exist outside of time, so to speak, and can move it at whatever speed you wish. Now imagine you are driving down a semi-busy highway. You use your time powers to slow time around you. To you, it would appear that the other cars on the road were slowing down, nearly stopping as you brought ( Read more... )

So tonight I ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and was still hungry so I rummaged around in our snack drawer. I found (delight of delights) some packages of those little orange peanut butter cracker sandwiches. So I take a pack, pour some milk, and eat them standing over a trash can next to the computer while I talk to my mom ( Read more... )

I watched "Saw" the other day... it wasn't scary, really. I cringed a bit, and there was a bit of suspense, but it was not nearly as terrible as anyone made it out to be ( Read more... )

Tonight was crazy at work. We were practically as busy as we'd be during the summer, but without as much staff. We CLOSE at 9, but tonight we still had a line.

So... well now I guess it counts as last night, I sat down to do my Music and Sound Retailer cartoon. For those of you who don't know, I have a job as a freelance cartoonist for the aforementioned trade publication where I draw a cartoon to match the "MI Spy" column every week.

If people want to start referring to a Christmas Tree as a "Holiday tree" then I propose that the Jewish symbol of the season be renamed the "Holiday candlabra."

Fair's fair.

So I'm home for winter break now. Presumably that's a good thing. I'm almost bored already. I have some stuff I could do but... eh. I almost quit my job but I talked to the managers and decided to stick around a bit longer. Plus it's nice to have money. Even if you have to work on Christmas eve for it ( Read more... )

Tonight I went out to dinner with my mom, aunt, and brother. With dinner, I ordered a drink off the little menu. What I was given was a glass the size of the human brain filled with pink liquid. It also contained a lot of ice, SIX cherries, two slices of pineapple, and two orange slices. It tasted like showtunes and track lighting and other ( Read more... )

One of the many things I have to do this semester is work in senior studio. I have a nice little space in the art building where I get to work. I've recently begun working in Sharpie markers. I know you want to see, and so here you go!!!
