Costume prep.
Oct. 28th, 2006 12:26 pmI've just spent the last three minutes picking an afro. I had this afro wig for my Bob Ross costume and it was really flat from being in the bag, so last night I bought an afro pick. The look the woman at Wal-Mart gave me was priceless. I now have a fully picked and stylin' 'fro ready for tonight. All I need is my brush and the blue shirt I bought. I'm also working on making a pallet out of card board and color swashes from photoshop. Go team Me!!
I've been depressed this week. It's a new kind of depression though. It's not like the kind I've had for my whole life. It wasn't a self-pity sort of thing so much as it was a confused and lost sort of thing. I think I'm sort of over it now, but I'll feel better when I can talk about it some more next week. I just feel like I don't know what I'm doing any more. What's the point in doing the web comic thing? Once again, the point is I'm an artist. The other point is that I love the "Errant Apprentice" concept. I did come to a decision though. I don't need to be working on Geebo or Munki's Tales right now. I don't feel them right now and that's a dangerous thing. It had gotten to the point that I was dreading working on comics. Now I feel some better. I feel a bit more focused and like I can keep going for a bit.
I feel lonely. Not in necessarily in the girlfriend sense (but that's there too), but I'm just in a lonely place. I don't see too many people right now and the ones I do see are on a limited basis. I see Warren once a week, Karen once every week or two and Paul about on the same schedule. I kind of miss having a larger circle of friends. I'm sort of looking forward to the party tonight just so I can see some people. There are other things bothering me, but nothing that needs to be said I suppose.
That's it for now. More later.

Email me if you need to talk.
