Me, Rudolph and Falling
So yeah, I've been working duh. I finally bought a chair today, and now I'm in a more comfortable position to type on my laptop, and draw cartoons. I've still got to get used to this tablet. When I used the Cintiq 21UX from Wacom, it was straight forward cause I was drawing on the screen. This tablet is indirect and my brain isn't wired that way just yet. I can still sketch though and that's how I started drawing today.
A couple days ago, Jo, my other roommate, and I decided to head over to Target to get some flashlights because our power went out. Then we tried to get to a nearby Gamestop to play some Wii, but we took a wrong turn in the mall and the store closed before we could get there. But that's ok because I was able to make my Mii online. I think it's pretty close. Jo was a little annoyed that they were already playing Christmas music at the mall, which prompted the idea for this cartoon that I just finished drawing. While Jo has a good point about the music, there is unfortunately no real thanksgiving music. I mean, none. Isn't that a little strange? Then again, there's no Easter music is there?
Yesterday, my group from work were treated to lunch outside. I had some nice "Firecracker Chicken" that had Schezuan chillies. I obviously ate everything, including the chillies. I went bouldering at Planet Granite later that day. One of the girls working the counter was a little embarrassed about the price of a 1-day pass so she let me rent shoes and harness for free. I didn't get to go on the tall climbs that need ropes though because my friends who were supposed to show up, showed up late. I was exhausted from doing the regular climbing. It's been more than 24 hours and my forearms are still sore. Feels good. I had to stop after a couple hours because my hamstrings actually started to cramp up a little, which is not a good thing when you from 10 feet above the ground.

There's a ton of Easter music. Most of what comes to mind is classical, such as Handel's "The Messiah."
