In the Beginning The Universe was Created. This made a lot of people angry, and has been widely regarded as a bad idea…
Heya folks. Sorry I didn’t update yesterday. I was busy on Tuesday evening, so didn’t write up a post for yesterday, and yesterday I was working, so I didn’t have time for that sort of stuffage.

Anyhoo, I am here now. Yay(!)

I havnt done much this week so far. Worked Monday, had Tuesday off where I did some research, was working most of yesterday, and I have to go to work later today. >.< but I have tomorrow off, and I'm going up to London to get a booster jab (NEEDLES!!!!!!! BWA HA HA!!!!) and I’ll probably end up doing the ole manga rounds. ^^

On Monday I drove my lil brother to scouts. ^^ I quite enjoy driving. It’ll probably wear off eventually, the enjoyment. ^^; oh well. I was driving along to a random album of unplugged and acoustic music. ^^

On Tuesday I watched “HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy” on Sky Movies with my family…its not quite as good as the original book, but its got its own merits. ^^ as you might have guessed, todays subject line is a quote from the film…

Today I got a parcel with my Ground Combat Gundam Model I bought off of ebay in it. ^^ I cant wait to get the chance to put it together. Its one of my fav Gundam types.

I'm afraid I still don’t have a comic for you guys. I’ve been focusing my artistic talents on a new project this week. Next weekend is the London Expo, which features a large anime/manga section. I'm going to be in Ireland so I wont be able to attend, but they are having a competition in association with GundamMad.com, which is my fav website for Gundam merchandise. The competition is to design your own Gundam, and you can win some Gundam goodies. ^^ Since I already have a number of my own designs, this will be fairly simple for me to enter, however, I have been trying to decide which design to enter, and to draw up a good illustration of it. I’ve cut it down to 2 designs, and I'm gonna do a best copy of both and then decide which to enter. However, that’s taken most of my spare time, so I havnt had the chance to do a comic…I’ll probably resume Boxman and CDD after I return from Ireland.

Instead, i’ll leave you a couple a piccies I’ve been working on recently…

First is this one which I spent waaaaayyyy to much time on…

The Puppet Master

And the second is this lil sketch of Kayleigh which I had to get out of my brain Monday night.




I also had a weird dream last night…I can’t remember all of it, but the first part we (I don’t know who) were driving in a car at night and we were driving up a mountain road, and all of these Zombies were standing on the road, but only in the parts lit y street lamps, which were only on one side of the road. So we drove on the other side to avoid the Zombies, apart from the occasional one that stood on our side. Behind us was another car on the other side of the road mowing the zombies down as he went. And I said to the driver, “that idiot is driving on the wrong side of the road, he’s gonna get hit by a car coming in the other direction in a minute…”

Anyways, we carry on driving, and suddenly its day time and we’re heading down a large highway past this HUGE glass mall, that’s still being constructed, and someone says “that malls been under construction for ages, and they’re never gonna finish cause all the workers keep going round the corner to the funfair thing”. And we pull into this funfair (its wasn’t really a funfair, more of a massive World Fair or something) and then the dream gets fuzzy for a bit, but the next thing I remember is that I'm in a team for a competition and we have to build a compressor or something…and we’ve mislaid the plans. And there’s this Black Haired Girl who’s talking to me, and I tell her “well, you need to tell me what to do. I dont mind doing it, and once I got plans I’ll go off and work it out and get it done, but I need you to tell me what to do, that’s your job…” and we talked a while more about some stuff, and then just as she was gonna tell me to get started, the alarm woke me up.

So yah… ^^; I think between the London Expo and my driving this week, my brain has become filled with funny ideas. There was one thing though, after I woke up and started to get ready for work, I couldn’t shake the feeling that by waking up from the dream, and thus losing the world in which the girl existed, i had lost someone dear to me…a close friend… bizarre I know, but I couldn’t shake the feeling.

…

And I think that’s it from me for now. Any questions, any queries, I’ll be in my office after the post has let out. ^^

EDIT: i got called into work early today so i wont be able to do much of anything. >.< Sorry Blue, i wont be able to be on MSN today!!


Toodles….

“So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that
grow around you

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

The world's about to be destroyed
There's no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

(yeah)

So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

(oh dear)

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

-“So Long and Thanks For All The Fish” from the Motion Picture “Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy”

Love Ya Blue!
