The Life of a Foolish Mortal

So I'm sitting here at 6 in the morning listening to cheery cheery Jazz music while nursing my printers along to try to bulk up my print stock. My to-do list is miles long and I have no idea where it ends. Con season is here, and it is here in full force.

Me and the apprentice have a convention at the end of next week. We (at least I was I do not know about the apprentice) are sort of caught flat footed on this since we were sitting on the waiting list fat dumb and happy, not expecting to be called, our next convention a blissful happy safe two months away. Our number got called and we couldn't come up with a reason to say no, so here we are scurrying to get everything sorted and handled. Her with school and me with my mom's doctor's appointments, my job doubling my hours for this week and other rot.

Anyways, while I'm panicking and chasing tail lets have some art posts.

( And still nothing new for the print books )

Well I think I've finished up all the printing I can do for the moment. So I'm going to slump over into bed for a bit before I go out and run the 500 errands I need to run.

So me and the apprentice have survived Comicpalooza. It was slow going for a while but we managed to enjoy ourselves in the end.

Though now I'm almost out of business cards and seriously need to get the online store up and running in some fashion. I hope to get something thrown together up on the store front before I head off again to SoonCon.


But that is something I shall handle after I sleep some more.

I've been working hard on being a productive member of society this week. I spent this week working on commission work, small paintings to sell next convention, and taking stock of buttons, and various convention supplies.

I also reorganized the button stock for conventions. In previous years the buttons were stored in a large gallon freezer bag and one had to dig around to find the buttons folks wanted. That was later upgraded to a couple of large gallon plastic bags holding various smaller plastic bags. The bags themselves were labeled and divided into categories, so we had one whole bag that contained all my comic related buttons and another that contained nothing but meta button jokes, etc. This system worked but not very well. This system has been retired and now we are trying something involving boxes with movable dividers and such. We shall see how this system works out.

I also retired some old print stock. I'll probably throw them on the store front when I get a chance since I have quite a few copies of these but no desire for them to be in the print book anymore. There's nothing WRONG with the pictures, the pieces however are old and I feel it's time to take them out.

Alright, now that that is aside onwards to the Art Post.
