Good morning to all my fawesome FAWTLY Brethren! It's a bright, sunshiny day here in Philly. Supposed to get up to 70! Woohoo!!
With luck, my workday will be slightly less insane today, and I'll even be able to chill a bit and get some key s**& done for my upcoming trip.
Hope everyone else has a Fawesome day!

Back sooner than I thought. Was reading that Topher Grace did an on-his-own cut of the Star Wars prequel trilogy - cut out most of the first movie, inserted some deleted scenes, and got all three movies down to about 85 minutes. Then he screened it at his home for about 50 guests.
I'd be interested to see what it was like.

Drama? In MY FaWtL?
It's more likely than you think.

I would like to welcome all friends new and old to the new Fawtl clubhouse.
The honor of being elected to name and create this new home is one that I will always hold dear.
No, MY FawtL! I brought it into this world, and I can take it out and make another just like it too! ;)

I might be sitting this one out. I'm very happy with what I've got.
I'll end up making a liar out of myself in two months, watch.
I am there with you, however I am trying to convince my wife we need a 2nd (one for me one for her) so we will see how that goes. That screen is ridiculous though...

Yeah, the screen is making me consider getting one, but I will wait until after the initial rush for sure.

MORE, I say!
You're either FOR US or AGAINST US!!!!
I'm in favor of non-Euclidean anxiety.
They have a cream for that

Thanks, though to be honest, I don't think I've improved much in the last three years. I guess that's what I get for going to a tech school instead of an art school.
I feel your pain. Haven't been drawing much the last couple of years, and I'm feeling real twitchy about it, but when I draw I haven't been liking the results. :/ I tried to do a new character portrait yesterday, however, and it went rather well.
I went to school to study a technical field too - but it didn't mean I stopped being creative. My best friend at work is a CPA, and she's branching into digital art now, and is pretty awesome at it. When I really take the time to concentrate on pushing myself, I have improved in my art a lot. If you enjoy it, it's worth working on when you can. You'll only stop improving when you stop trying. You may not see improvements, but that's probably because you're too close to it. If you really want to push things, find something a bit outside your comfort zone and run as far as you can with it. That's what I like to do. Sometimes it turns out well, though more often it doesn't. But I always learn something valuable along the way!

Woot!! Finally got the report I'd been waiting on. Now I can finish the report I've been promising!
On the other hand:
Grr#1 - so busy working on said report I missed out on my window of opportunity for short lunch line. SO, vending machine's it is.
Grr#2 - this scum sucking bean counter is still insisting I go out to Japan in April for an inspection rather than wait until later in the year to do it in San Diego. Sebastian - you should totally go kick his ass for me, since you're closer.
Otherwise, wrt job, things are going relatively less insane than usual, yet more frantic than usual. Does that even make sense?
