Day 596 of 365 More. Beer, the only carbs I need. So today was the day. After 5 weeks of processing, Steph and I invited friends over to try a nice refreshing batch of "Lonzo Maverick’s Good Ol’ Fashioned Canadian Maple Lager." Just like Grampa used to make. Unfortunately, as far as I know, my…

Day 595 of 365 More. After we finish this comic, I’m not sure what I’m going to do with myself. At this point, it just kinda feels like I’ve always been doing it. Sleep is some kinda myth. A dream long since past (see, there’s no dreams since I don’t sleep). But we’re getting there.…

Day 594 of 365 More. Well, I’m getting there. Finished page 19 today. 5 more to go. I can see the end over the horizon. I’m really looking forward to getting some sleep next week (though I’m going to bed now and its barely 2). Next week I also hope to return to doing something…

Day 593 of 365 More. "Ain’t that a kick in the ass?" See, its another one. Get it? Ummm… still not sleeping. So I said yesterday that something bad was going to happen. And they said I was crazy. Well, here we go. Found out today that the shipping terms for the printer that I’m…

Day 592 of 365 More. I’m "waiting for the other shoe to drop." Get it? Hahah! It’s funny you see. Errm… I haven’t been sleeping much. I’m very used to being unhappy with life. I’m used to things not going well. But lately that isn’t the case. I’m still working. The podcast is going well…

Day 591 of 365 More. So Steph and I have two cats. But you’d never know it. Tess, has appeared in a few 365 shots with me. However, in the first 590 days I did this project, her brother Otto never appeared once. When I was trying to come up with a shot for tonight,…

Day 589 of 365 More. My brain is turning to mush. Actually, I had a pretty productive day today. Got a lot of work done on the comic (2.5 pages). Filmed what seemed like a good episode of the podcast. Got our new Time Capsule (Apple Airport 802.11n router with 500GB of storage built in…

Day 588 of 365 More. Yeah, ok… my eyes are kinda bloodshot. Popular myth. People think I don’t sleep. Nothing could be farther than the truth. Actually I do sleep. Just not as much as most people. I learned a long time ago that even though I don’t need as much sleep with as other…

Day 587 of 365 More. Today I am phoning it in… heehee… get it? Actually, I really just wanted to see how good the quality of an iPhone portrait was. The answer… err… it’s this good. The problem with this whole comic book thing is that really, its all I’m doing with my life. I…

Day 585 of 365 More. Helluva day! So the battery in my laptop has been acting up and not holding a charge since I went to Florida last week. I didn’t have time to deal with it though so I put it off till today to go to the Apple store and get a replacement.…

Day 584 of 365 More. Finished the first chapter (8 pages) of the comic tonight. Now 2 chapters (16 pages) to go. It’s a lot of work but I’ll get there. That said, the late nights and long hours are starting to get to me. I just feel tired. And I know what you’ll all…

Day 583 of 365 More. I said my self-portraits would be suffering for the near future, and I wasn’t kidding. I spent the entire day glued to my laptop. I was up til 7am last night working on the comic, and started again as soon as I woke up. I took a couple breaks. One…

Day 582 of 365 More. Wow. I’m amazed at how much I accomplished today. Got two pages done of my comic. Edited and posted some shots of Chaste from yesterday’s shoot. Worked out for the first time in way too long. Bottled the beer that Steph and I made a few weeks ago. Cooked up…

Day 580 of 365 More. My good friend here is staying with me tonight for a photoshoot tomorrow. After that he apparently has to get going for some sort of big night he has coming up next week. Other than that, not a lot going on. It was back to work as usual today. Got…

Day 579 of 365 More. I am oh so very tired… Apparently I misset my alarm clock or something somehow and overslept by more than an hour, which meant I had to haul ass to make my meeting on time. I think my boss is a little pissed at me for that, but luckily the…
