So, I just had my 9 month performance review at Target. I got "Excellent" all across the board plus a $0.14 raise!
Not sure how much of a difference that'll make in my paycheck, but hey, it's a start. I think I get another one in 3 months because I'll have been there a year. We'll see.
In other news, I'm just packing, getting ready to move into the house next month. Packing is always a pain in the tuckus, but at least we'll be in a nice house!
I've been working on some sketches for that comic book gig to just show the guy as proof of concept I guess. Just to give him a taste of what it may look like. I'll be posting those soon.
Well, that's about it for now. I'll keep everyone updated on the comic stuff and moving as soon as news breaks.
Peace out.

Don't Wanna Get My Hopes Up, But...
Thanks to my good buddy Scottie, I may have a penciling gig soon. Now, this isn't set in stone yet. He just let me know about it, asked me if I were interested and he'd let his people know.
Hopefully this pans out. That would be so rad.
I gotta do up some sketches so they can get an idea of what stuff will look like, so you may start seeing some new artwork soon.
I'll keep everyone posted. I'm uber excited!
In other news, the people in the apartment below us are communists, proven by the huge Soviet flag on the wall.

Overdue Update, Part 2: Disneyland
OK, so this is a way, way overdue post to my last overdue post. I'll have to be brief in the rest of my Disneyland trip.
I wanted to talk about briefly the annoying guy in line behind us on Indiana Jones. Imagine the most annoying know-it-all you could ever encounter and then imagine that he's full of shit. That was him. The entire 20 minute wait in line he was talking about every square inch of the attraction. Saying how it's the best ride Disney has ever done, how it's his favorite ride, talking about the hidden Mickey's.
Rose was playing with one of the parts that you can interact with, this douche jacked the rope almost right out of her hand. I was praying he wasn't in the same car as us. I was dreading a running commentary during the entire ride. Finally, my prayers were answered when we went one way and he went another. At last, I could just sit back and enjoy the badassery of the ride. And I did.
It was a pretty sweet ride. Really fun and the special effects and animatronics were impressive. At one point, I thought the Indy hanging from the ceiling was a real dude. It was, in fact, not.
The rest of the trip was awesome. We were there 4 days and I still didn't get to see and do everything.
We also went to Universal Studios for one day. That was pretty cool too, even though it was raining most of the day. We went on The Mummy ride, which was actually kinda fun. Crappy movie, good ride. We went on Jurassic Park and The Simpsons ride which was quite innovative. We took the world famous tram ride which was cool, got some cool pictures and a few souvenirs.
The rest of the time at Disneyland was just going through the shops and checking out a few rides we hadn't gone on and hitting some favorites again.
As I said before, I had a blast and I really wanna go again in a couple years. I have a new favorite vacation destination. I hope I'll have more money to spend next time though, but what really counts is the insane fun.
