It’s 5-something AM on a Monday morning and I’m typing on a mini-keyboard attached to my iPad Pro. This is the first full day without a personal PC since 1991 or 1992, and probably 1983-ish if you count the hodgepodge of video game related computers (Commie 64, Coleco Adam, TI994/a), ...

I'm starting to get feedback on the first couple of issues and other than the single "WTF?" I got in comments here about last issue, most have been pretty positive. I did get some minor criticism about flashbacks and why I've made choices not to use them in my comics ...

For those following this blog you know that besides the yearly post to keep it alive, my other frequent activity is to revise the comic(s) I feature here any time there is a technological breakthrough with the modeling software. I also wait a long darn time for those technological breakthroughs. ...

I've spent most of the past two days trying to figure out lighting schemes and cheats for the new rendering software. I must say that I'm not used to the slowness yet, as with the old rendering the renders completed near immediately. Now? It's between 15 minutes and an hour, ...

It's early Sunday morning and I'm not doing as well as I'd like. It was a hard week and things are on my mind. I'm up, of course, to feed the cat, which is now feed the cat and kittens. The (seven) kittens heard me stirring and were about to ...

It's 4:30AMish and I'm up to feed a cat that's been dead for a couple of days now. Patterns are hard to change, though the kittens (we have 7 since no one wants kittens right now) were awake and waiting for me to bring their food when I opened the ...

Yesterday I had to make the decision to have one of my best friends put to sleep. His name was Romeo. Romeo showed up on the front porch as a juvenile cat (about a year old) back in 2011 (I can't believe it's been that long), and immediately worried me ...

There's much too much going on in my brain tonight. It's 5:33am on Sunday, January 28, 2018. I'm sick with some sort of fluid in my lungs and I'm on a steroid treatment to fight it for the first time in two years. They used to give me steroids to ...

It's the first day of the year. Not sure what that is going to mean for me. Last week was a very light week at work and we had today off as the offices were closed. Our moderation agents still worked, but those in management had the day off in ...

It's been a long time. I don't really know where to start, nor do I know why you're looking here since we've been dormant for so long. I'd shoo you away, but that'd be rude so I guess it's time for updates. I landed the dream job about a month ...

So, this is Christmas, err, Thanksgiving, and what have you done? Another year older and now you weight a ton... It's Thanksgiving morning 2015 and I'm awake. I'm not sure why I'm awake but I am. In usual fashion, I'm not scheduled to work until much later today and I ...

I hate this time of year.  The days are getting longer and longer, it's getting hotter and hotter and frankly, everything is at an odd angle for two or three months until mid-summer and then the world starts making sense again. Something bad always happens this time of year. Last ...
