Stuff I did so far this week instead of getting two pages of Rita up:
– Took my Mac down to the Apple Store to maybe get a new battery. They were all “yeah it really isn’t replacement time, let’s try cleaning some crap up, also reinstall the OS, no really, it’ll help, come back in a week if it’s still not doing better.” And surprisingly enough reinstalling the OS was super painless (no data loss or anything, it only touched the system stuff) and may have actually helped. May have also helped that I finally dug into and fixed a weird Keychain issue that happens to some serial upgraders.
– Hung out with Nick for the first time in a couple of weeks, due to sick and whatnot. It was pretty low-key and still a lot of fun – mostly we went out to supper and watched the Venture Brothers season premiere.
– Seriously pondered doing Dr. Mrs. The Monarch cosplay someday. I figure it’s a good thing to wear on the last day of a con, when my voice is shot anyway…
– Went down to White Plains with Nick, hung out drinking iced tea for a bit while he visited the marijuana farmer’s market (he currently has a card, I don’t).
– Started fiddling with my diet. Attempting to understand VEGETABLES after many many years of being befuddled by them. And eat less sluggishness-inducing wheat.
– Almost completely finished SECRET PROJECT. Finally. There’s a couple tweaks but it’s basically done.
– Did some stuff related to finding quotes for book 2, and some thinking about the Kickstarter.
I’m about halfway finished with the next page of Rita, which is a complicated thing with eight panels and three realities on it. Hopefully I’ll get it done and up tomorrow. Then it’s on to the next page, and the next, and the next. Comics are a long slog. But I like doing them.
Bedtime, I guess!
