Like a scene out of Arachnaphobia, I was in the shower washing my hair, rinsed, and looked up into the corner behind the shower head. And there it was. Staring at me. Upside-fucking-down staring at me. Even though the water temp was pretty damn hot, I got a chill. “Ewwwww!!” So I thought to…

A Conversation Between Me and Hubby About A School...
Me: Why did you circle "Pacific Islander"?
Franklin: Because that's what she is. That's what I am. Pacific Islander.
Me: No. You're not. Filipinos are not Pacific Islanders. Ya'll are Asians. *Circles Asians.
Franklin: No we're not. We're Pacific Islanders.
Me: Someone failed Geography.
Franklin: YOU failed Geography. We're Pacific Islanders.
Me: -_____- Just because The Philippines touches the Pacific Ocean, it doesn't make it's inhabitants 'Pacific Islanders'. If that were the case, then the Japanese and Taiwanese would be considered Pacific Islanders and not Asian.
Franklin: Japanese. Taiwanese. Look at these dirty knees..... I've always wanted to use that in a sentence.
Me: /)__(\

Penciled Pages
These pages aren’t going to ink themselves. Want to use a brush to ink them but I should get some practice in before going in.
A lot of sketching and rough layouts coming from these pencil marks I make. Need to get some writing and actual penciling started.

Not much new
Just been writing for a short comic story aside from some sketches and ideas put on paper. Two comic pages I’ve finished recently will be in a zine coming later this year. My latest activity on Tumblr has been following other pages dedicated to showing off art of some great comic artists.
