I'm not fired... yet


Isn't that surprising? I mean... surely the dumbest person would have bet that I would be canned by now. Yet here I am, coming home exhausted and hitting the bed immediately. God knows what Letterman has been saying the past few weeks. Hopefully I can keep it up for a few more weeks when my probation will be over.


Work IS piling up though. There were some bits where I was just sitting there looking through manuals and codes (scratching my head in puzzlement for hours)... but there were intense bits where it seems nobody wanted to go home. Good thing the week was capped off with a funny presentation and some blondes (that's beers, you non-Aussies).


Weekend was spent trying to clean the bird feces off my clothes that were sitting on the drying line for a week. That and the usual gamut. Stupid E-bay sellers and their horrible postage times. I was hoping to crack open some 'hot coffee' action between Misty and May (see if you can decipher the gamer lingo there). Took some time to watch Superman Returns (disappointing... Superman movies suck) and work on some backlog sketches. Man, have I lost it.


Second pic is part of the original 2nd request of my Discount Politics friend. Apparently some of my stuff is being used in a math tutorial site too. Wonder how that'll turn out. First pic is something I wanted to do about Frankie from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. Hilarious cartoon. However, I saw a very good picture of the Foster's crew done by a talented artist a while back and really wanted to see if I could do well. I can't. Even the porn on the web (it's one of the internet rules, guys) seems to draw better than I do... I don't even have to mention some of the professional art I found. I've also realised that Bloo's expressions are immensely difficult to draw. Huh... you wouldn't have thought that because he's just 2 eyes and a mouth, really.


Oh, well... hope I can get more practice in.
