Stretchin' Like Caramello

It's come to my attention that I'm taking on quite the number of projects and probably stretching myself a bit thin. Between my newly instated Gibberish, We've Got Brains, my plans for Milos and Click-Track Heart, and all of my master's degree work--and that's not including my day job and actually spending time with my wife--I don't have much wiggle room. (I'm going to be in trouble when I have kids.) Things should be okay though, as long as I slow down and focus on one thing at a time. Plus, with a bit of help from my friends, reviews for films like The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor will still get done, without wasting my time. It's a thin plan, I know, but it should work. I hope. Otherwise I'll just have to be like the woman I saw this morning on my way to work.

As she was walking her dog, she was picking up the random trash and litter that was scattered around the sidewalk. And I could see that this wasn't her trash either, she was just being a good person. I couldn't help but think that this woman had it right, taking something she would be doing anyway--walking her dog--and turning it into something better for everyone.

*sigh*

It would be nice to be that selfless.

+The Taco Salsa Party+

Ta da!

Here is the beginning of Gibberish. Having Gibberish has been my plan from the start of my initial website musings. I wanted to have an outlet for all my random doodles and comic ideas that have absolutely nothing to do with Click-Track Heart or We've Got Brains. I figured that this would be as good a place as any to go ahead and start up Gibberish. Plus this will not only give you a taste of my art and what Click-Track Heart will be, but it also gives more of an excuse to come back here on a semi-regular schedule--I WILL UPDATE GIBBERISH EVERY TUESDAY AND THURSDAY. (And for archival ease, since I don't have a real set up here (I'm hoping that will change if I ever find someone to design a website for me), each entry with +s will have a Gibberish comic.)

As for the regular world, a review, by one of my friends, D, will be up for The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. I should have it posted by the end of the day at Filmmedium and linked tomorrow.

Also, I've started rereading a book called The Stolen Child. I seriously can't recommend that book enough. Freaking amazing, especially if you like your fantasy/magic with a bit more realism than most.

Have yourselves a mighty fine Tuesday, and I'll see you back on Thursday... if not tomorrow.

On My Way

I can't help but get slightly excited about the few new people that have checked out my comic. All of my advertising push is starting to pay off as the days go along. Since Monday, there have been over 60 new people that have checked out the comic. And that, my friends, is cause for celebration--which, of course, will be a Dr. Pepper with pellet ice.

Anywho, I've realized that because of this push to check out my comic, I'm needing to start pushing people here, through ads and my new venture that will, hopefully, start up next week. So stay tuned.

In the meantime, I must give a quick plug again for Wall E. My wife and I checked it out for the second time last night. For having the majority of the dialogue being "Wall E" and "Eva," Pixar has made a mighty fine little film. Though I bet it's got nothing on the new Mummy. (For those of you that might think I'm serious, please know that although I plan on seeing The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, I have no expectations for it, and I think the world might explode if it is better than Wall E.)

I hope you all have a good weekend. Thanks for stopping by and for checking out We've Got Brains. See you Monday.
