random wierdness from the life of a comic book colorist

deadlines, demons and dragons, and deadlines oh my!

whew.....I'm in a major deadline crunch here in the studio.  I've GOT to get these pages for the next KISS 4K book done, granted I've only had them 3 days now, and I'm half done, but I'm feeling the desire to get them all done by Saturday night now.  Not sure if my body will hold up with that though, it's already been protesting some.  I've got the last set of pages for Dragon Cross I have to get cranking on, I just finished the colors for the issue 3 cover of Dragon Cross on Tuesday?  of this week.  I'm in good shape there really, but it seems everything is piling up here all at once, or rather all the deadlines are getting bumped up on everything. 

In less disheartening news....  Today I've decided is the day of reckoning at the Embury castle.  Big changes are going to take place soon.  I need to get healthier here, I've made some progress this year, but not enough.  That's going to change, from diet to exercise to everything.  Unnecessary things are going to be pruned away, habits are going to change because they have to and everyone is going to be okay with it (referring to my kids mostly on this one) It's one of those times in life, where to get where you want to be, you have to make sacrifices.  I mean, it's not like we're talking about living out of a tent or something here, we're talking about getting rid of some of those "comforts" that have made us too soft.  Less chocolate, less Coke, less TV, less pasta, less everything.  Consume less, live more right?  I'm not talking about eliminating stuff altogether, that wouldn't work, but just LESS of things. 

ugh, I'm rambling.  I've got to get to making some changes to my work habits now too.  Less of being wimpy, and more JUGGERNAUT!!!!
