88 mph

i went up north for a week. seattle is nice to visit, don’t know if i’d want to live there. puyallup i wouldn’t mind, but driving everywhere would make me crazy.

i want to move to manzanita right now and become a reclusive writer, but obviously that’s not going to happen.

damn the writers of lost. i want more RIGHT NOW. i don’t know when it’s coming back.

stargate, atlantis, and galactica return for seasons 9, 2, and 2 in july. galactica will have a full 20 episodes this time, no idea if they’ll split them up 10/10 like the stargates. probably. that’s fine.

i ought to combine my geek/glorious categories, that’s all i ever post to anymore.

i bought some research material for gary dirin 1099; history of scotland, history of the vikings, and scottish castles. i wasn’t looking for it, per se, but i was at barnes and noble, they were dirt cheap in the bargain bins, and well, you get the idea.

also bought a book of aerial photography of france.

haven’t touched the revenge of the sith artbook.

speaking of, people keep asking what i thought. i walked out disappointed. there was some really amazingly good stuff in there, but there was also some absolute crap, and several unintentionally hilarious bits. suffice it to say this movie did NOT negate my desire to remake all six movies. star wars 2000(working title) continues to build up inside my head.

there are so many things i ought to do with my time i won’t bother listing them.

the battle a full-time wage slave faces between getting stuff done and getting plenty of sleep is a totally fucking shitty one. i hate this. i hate that my job is fantastic and there’s nothing wrong with it except that it eats up all my time and energy, and thus i can’t help wanting to leave it.

but i don’t think i’m liable to find anything better. and i mean that, this job is honestly perfect for me.

except that it’s a day job, and it’s not what i want to be doing in five, ten, etc. years. hell, i don’t want to be in this situation NEXT year.

use your free time wisely, avoid time wasters that take you away from doing artwork. things like having friends, reading, seeing movies, playing games, and etc.

if i didn’t have geeky hobbies i could deal with a 20 hour a week job at mcdonalds.

i bought a 1:18 die-cast toy of the delorean time machine yesterday. it’s totally fucking awesome.
