Hi, still here.

I thought it'd be a good idea to start making deviant stamps to keep this account from getting dull. Otherwise, I'm starting to overcome an apparent motivational problem with NCC by doing characters and comic art. Summer classes have started, so the academic strain will be a little light for a while.

FINALLY finished Paniponi Dash! this week, a show that took me NINE FREAKING MONTHS to watch since the discs are so hard to find and the Anime Network no longer has a 24/7 cable channel. Take the warm fuzzy cuteness of Azumanga Daioh and replace some of the charm with the not-so-subtle humor of Excel Saga and here's what you get. Watch it when you can.

Twenty years after last winning the national championship, KU does it again thanks to a last-minute three-pointer which sent it to overtime. Kansas 75, Memphis 68. Rock chalk Jayhawk.

NCC artwork still coming out. Also exploring the seemingly threatening world of Flash.

New laptop at last.

Compaq Presario F700. 2GB of RAM. 140GB hard drive. Windows Vista. Functioning CD-ROM drive. USB ports where you don't have to jiggle the device or anything.

I've spent the past weekend breaking it in and despite having to learn how to do some things all over again thanks to their confusing new control panel layout it's running pretty sweet.

Terry wallpaper coming soon.

I am currently about two or three paychecks away from getting a new laptop. Preferably one where the CD drive door is in no immediate danger of popping off.

I'm feeling a little motivated to start NCC back up again. I'm currently making some character wallpapers which I'll put up here eventually. Bonnie's done, Renée's is still in progress, Terry, Kat, Mike and the currently undisclosed portion of the main cast to come later.

Working on a Christmas or winter-themed NCC piece. It's sort of the same thing as the Kimono Hug piece, but this time I'm trying a different approach which shouldn't involve the Photoshop pen tool.

Finals are done and another semester's in the books (not one of my better ones, admittedly, but I think I did all right). All I need to do now is brave the cold weather and get to somewhere I can sell my books back.

Thhinking of making some Deviant stamps.
