I Jumped Through Time

The title's from a song by Abney Park, called Post-Punk Apocalypse. Its a pretty cool band and song,I dig the whole visual style they've got going.

Anyways, so I've been kinda wasting my vacation, reading fmylife.com and reading the stories on the Star Trek XI kink meme.

I have so much unrestrained love for the new Chekov it's not really that funny. Except to E. it is.I made her drive me to Toys R Us so I could get a Chekov doll,who now rides around in my purse with me. I plan to get a Bones at some point too. I grew up on the star trek stuff, and Bones was my favorite on TOS, which set a precedent for me,I guess, all my favorites on the following Star Trek series were doctors: Crusher,Bashir,the Doctor.I didn't watch Enterprise but I'm sure the doctor on that show would have been my favorite.

So its a surprise that I'm head over heels a Chekov fangirl.Although,well...not that surprising..Look at him!

As a result of me liking imdb.com, I then sought out other movies the actor,Anton Yelchin,has been in.I've seen Star Trek,Terminator:Salvation, Alpha Dog and Charlie Bartlett back to back. I liked Star Trek and Charlie Bartlett best.

I then found a site that had a lot of Adam Hughes's stuff and so I've been stockpiling on his works.He's so awesome,I would die happy if I could ever get to be as good an illustrator as he is.

Which reminds me,not that I forgot. But I swore to myself I'd start working on my comic,but I haven't.But I guess I can justify it by saying I want to wait until I write all 24 scripts for the book,and I can't start on the second books til I get my 1st books back from my dad with his corrections to the reality of the characters,for continuity reasons,so..yeah. I want the book to be as good as it can possibly be,so I want to get all the minute details out of the way, the details that tie the world to the real world to make readers feel like they know the universe my characters are in. I want to get everything fleshed out and written out and perfect and seamless before I start illustrating,so that the visual clues and contexts are matching.

So that's out of the schedule until I see my dad and get his painstakingly poured over and written out notes and corrections. I love that I have my dad to check and correct my story's background.

But even if I have these reasons/excuses I still feel guilty and shamed.

I think next post I'll try to write about something of value.
