Day 1129 of 365 Again. I cleaned today. Steph’s been away so I thought it’d be a good idea to surprise her with a clean house when she got back. That’s a big deal. I suck at cleaning. Like a lot. Really, I’m downright awful at it. But I buckled down. Mowed the lawn, winterized…

Day 1128 of 365 Again. I was being lazy today. I wasn’t planning on it, but I was busy all day. Steph is away on a two day bikeride thing so I spent the whole day cleaning. Once it started getting late, I realized I needed to take a picture of something, but was too…

Day 1127 of 365 Again. Another day, another studio visit. Met up with my potential partners to see yet another space that we might be able to rent for the new studio. Wasn’t as happy with this one. It was less of a blank canvas than the other. Certainly had a lot of character, but…

Day 1126 of 365 Again. Today was the Steeler’s season opener. I was all prepared to take a pic in my studio of me wearing my Steelers’ jersey and celebrating our win. But as it got closer to midnight it started looking bad. The game ran late, and we were tied. At the end of…

Day 1124 of 365 Again. As I said the other day, I’ve been investigating potential studio spaces with other photographers. Saw one after work today that showed a lot more promise than the last place I saw. No parking to speak of, but much better sizewise and still in our price range.Probably the best we’ve…

Day 1123 of 365 Again. And so ends another working man’s holiday. Spent the day working on administrative stuff for the comic. Got very little accomplished sadly. But I did get the next several strips written. Hopefully Max will catch up tomorrow and I can get Thursday’s done in time. Oh well. At least I…

Day 1122 of 365 Again. I’ve mentioned before that I’m addicted to DVDs. It seems like that’s kind of a safe addiction. I could be addicted to alcohol or cocaine or heroin or something. But DVDs have a problem over drug addiction. SPACE. Dvds take it up. The more you buy the less room you…

Day 1121 of 365 Again. I’ve been working with some other photographers on setting up a new shared studio. We actually thought we had one that would have been perfect but that fell through about a week ago, so we’re back to the drawing board. One of the other photographers, Scott, and I went l…

Day 1120 of 365 Again. I hate traffic. I really do. I was supposed to have a wrestling show today. 70 miles from where I work. It should have taken me a little over an hour to get there. I even left work 15 min. early. This was over two hours later. I was still…

Day 1119 of 365 Again. So I’m trying to fight my way through the creative slump. I’m not saying this is the crown jewel of 365s but at least it’s trying more than I have the past couple days. Spent the evening not working on Hellcats. Not that I don’t have stuff I could be…

Day 1118 of 365 Again. You know what this is? This is my bill paying face. This is me realizing that most of the money I made last month is already gone the day after payday. This is why my soul is in pain. This is why I’m considering starting a life of crime. This…

Day 1117 of 365 Again. Tired and burned out and didn’t feel like taking a picture. I really need to get back on the inspiration kick. What do other people do when they’re burnt out. I used to be able to pull myself out after a few days, but I feel like I’ve been in…

Day 1116 of 365 Again. Another Monday, and I’m back at work. Was late today because apparently I ran something over and punctured a tire so I had to go to the shop to get that patched first. Spent a busy day at work, which much like any other day at work just saps all…

Day 1115 of 365 Again. So Steph finally came home from her week abroad. I told her I’d pick her up at the airport but she’d been gone so long that I was afraid that I might not be sure what she looked like. Luckilly I came up with a way to make sure we…
