blearghh

I have a cold.....or an ear infection....can't tell. My right ear feels so full and achy! My head hurts...I'm sniffly...sneezing...

It's a gross night here in Manor Trin. Stella is keeping me good company tho. I'm just glad I have tomorrow off, I hate dealing when I'm sick. Customers and employees just suck when you feel off your game, you know?

Anyhow, here's some stuff..... speaking of webcomics, here's something I recently started getting into: Anders Loves Maria. As the "about" page warns, it's not for the casual reader. It's one of those things that you gotta dedicate time to, but the art is great, and the story's pretty great too... it's a pretty decent character study.

In Etsy news, here's someone from my favorites... thedreamygiraffe.etsy.com



Cute, right? I really like finding originals for sale on etsy. I like prints and I like ACEOs (i have a collection starting to cover one whole wall) but something's super nice about an original painting or drawing. Also I like the titles of all these. Straight and to the point, eh?

I wonder what I'll do with myself tomorrow....if I feel too bad, the doctor. Plus sleep. But if I feel better I may see a movie. But what? I feel like there's something I really wanna see, but I also feel like nothing good is coming out until Thanksgiving. Maybe I'll just watch 'Iron Man' for the 50th time since we bought it.

Speaking of Webcomics

Have I mentioned Octopus Pie lately?

It's by Brooklyn artist Meredith Gran, and it's superb. I saw her books at Comic Con this past July and I was smitten.

It's so totally worth checking out; hilarious stories and great characters. I love her line work as well.
