I say again, Merry Christmas folks. My absences can be explained by having to get to work at 6am for a straight week and having to work on another thing that needed to take priority.
That's about it, later folks.
"Do they know it's Christmastime at all?"
(Do They Know Its Christmas, Band Aid)
That's right, we are in year four of Stars on the Ceiling. I just forgot haha. I was on the bus when I realized. I did do a comic that day but I didn't mention the anniversary and unwittingly celebrated it haha.
Later folks.
"Daylight fading. Come and waste another year. All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear. Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn. When we see the early signs that daylight's fading. We leave just before it's gone."
(Daylight Fading, Counting Crows)
Now now kids. Don't you worry, I'm probably not getting fired. Considering how often they were mad at me last year it's unlikely, but still. I worry.
"Well, I've got a bad feeling about this"
(A Decade Under The Influence, Taking Back Sunday)
When I think about it all I want out of life is to live on my own, have money to pay bills and do whatever I want. How I'd get there I still have no idea. I think in this I'm getting pissed cause I'm not working towards anything. I'm just working at the store, drawing a comic here or there, and play video games. Other then that I don't work to some goal. Funny thing is I don't know what I wanna work towards. Cause I also worry that at the other side I'll be no closer then I am now. I think up to this point has freaked me out. Going to college and all that and I'm still at home. I guess I believed in that whole go to college and then you'll have a job, which happen to some but not to me.
Bah, well the season is almost up, so I need to figure out a plan. Cause my large amount of hours will be cut as soon as the season is over. *sigh*
Later folks.
"This is how to build a better enemy. We work together and we get it done. I'm not exactly who I used to be. So shut your mouth or else you're fucking gone."
(G, Reggie And The Full Effect)
I would die laughing if a manager said that to us haha. Also if you forgot I work at a toy store haha.
"Man I feel like mold. It's prom night and I am lonely. Lo and behold. she's walking over to me."
(Teenage Dirtbag, Wheatus)
Indeed. For further proof, look here.
"Do you believe in God? Written on the bullet. Say 'yes' to pull the trigger."
(Cassie, Flyleaf)
Couple things about this comic. First thing is that the things I'm thinking while sleeping are actual things I dream about just before I wake up. I feel an anxiety that I'm at work in my dreams. It kinda feels like when I dream about being chased or something. Two in keeping with my newly discovered joy of adding some detail to my drawings. My bedroom is (somewhat) accurately represented in this comic. And the thing to the left of me in the last panel is not Gnomes or elves. They're actually Goku and Vegeta as super sayiens.
Well that's about it. Talk to you all manana.
"It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired. You are stuck to me everyday. Believe in what I am because it's all I have today. And tomorrow who knows where we'll be. From here I can hardly see a thing. But I will follow anyone who brings me to you. For now, forever, for on and on and on."
(Every Thug Needs A Lady, Alkaline Trio)
Just to be clear, I don't fantasize about master chief stalking me. I just find it hilarious for a strong bad ass character acting like a needy whiny guy haha. And after looking into my old comics, this isn't the first time I avoided his calls.
Another Stars on the Ceiling fun fact. The answering machine is a drawing of my real one. Though that's not groundbreaking I do find it cool I drew something real instead of just making it up for once.
"A movie, still photograph. Through a martyr's eyes I can see. I've seen the best of love, the best of hate, the best reward is earned. And I've paid for every single word I ever said."
(Chase This Light, Jimmy Eat World)
Up to where I was up late playing God of War II(11, but I had work at 6) is true, everything else is made up. If you couldn't guess.
"I gotta know tonight. If you're alone tonight. Can't stop this feelin'. Can't stop this fire. Oh."
(Hysteria, Def Leppard)
Seriously. I even told my mom I don't care if we do nothing. At least in terms of decorating haha.
"Somethings, somethings are just for me."
(Just For Me, Blues Traveler)
I seem to enjoy it when I draw more detail.
"I confess, I'm messed up. Dropping 'I'm sorry' like you're still around. And I know you dressed up. 'Hey kid you'll never live this down'."
(A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More "Touch Me", Fall Out Boy)
Yup yup. If anybody was wondering, I am attempting to get back into doing comics. I have regained a little of my want to draw the comic again. But so far it's very little. But I'll work on it haha.
"There was a verse that I was gonna write I haven't yet. But there's still a chance I might An open book. That I still want to close I'll find the time."
(Someday I Suppose, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones)
Yea I honestly couldn't think of a witty title. So there we go.
"Picture a spinning toy laden with adventure. Coupled with the things I've told. And a dream can be as one. I have my moments now and again."
(I Have My Moments, Blues Traveler)
Happy Thanksgiving folk. And two Simpsons references in a row haha.
They do say that haha. Technically incorrect.
"I'm dying to know. Do you do you like dreaming of things. So impossible or only the practical. Or ever the wild or waiting through all your bad bad days. Just to end them with someone you care about. Or do you like making out. And long drives and brown eyes. And guys that just don't quite fit in. Yeah do you like them? So yes, I'll see you there."
(So Impossible, Dashboard Confessional)
Yup yup haha.
"I'll get over you. I know I will. I'll pretend my ship's not sinking. And I'll tell myself I'm over you. 'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking. I am the king of wishful thinking."
(King of Wishful Thinking, Go West)
yup. One year older, celebrating in moderation cause I got work tomorrow at 6am. SHIT!!!!
I've actually said that to her ever now and again when she asks me that. For reason's that title state.
"It's three o'clock in the morning. And I'm hungry so let's eat. Climb down three flights to the streetlights. And the bar-fights, we're just taking in the sights. I hope tomorrow that I wake up in my own bed."
(Hello City, Barenaked Ladies)
Yup, me Mom got me a wacom tablet for my birthday/Christmas. It's awesome, and it'll probably be more awesome once I get used to using it.
For those of you worried I will abandon my old ink and pencil ways to use the tablet you can rest easy. It honestly took longer then if I drew it by hand. But I imagine after I get use to it I could work faster.
Anywho, later folks.
"I'm a religious drunk and this is where I pray."
(Seeing Double At The Triple Rock, NOFX)
What I actually wrote was, "may the force be with you".
Yup, today the only thing that changed was Theresa's insurance. Congrads to them.
"Spring is here. The sky is blue. Whoa! the birds all sing as if they knew. Today's the day, we'll say, "I do". And we'll never be lonely anymore. Because we're. Going to the chapel. And we're gonna get married."
(Chapel of Love, Dixie Cups)
