Okay, that's Jealous Sound lyrics.
Since I made my vow to never post a (numbered) list on the internet again, I haven't gotten to tell y'all what I've been listening to! Lately, it's been Bat for Lashes, the Antlers, Frightened Rabbit, I Like Where I Live, Young Galaxy, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, The Jealous Sound and a little Arcade Fire and MGMT. Last night I watched Promise Ring and Get Up Kids videos on YouTube. Ha!
T-shirts are still on sale!
I have developed the unfortunate capacity to drink straight bourbon like it's water. Kentucky, you have ruined me.
Anyway! T-shirt sale this week! Visit my etsy site, get your very own Milkyboots T-shirt and soon you too will be having to answer "What's a milkyboot?"
I am really bad at pronouncing Irum's name, but I think I may have finally gotten it.
For those of you that read Milkyboots #7, old roommate Dave is the same one that now lives in Paris and who I was in a band (very, very briefly) with. It was kind of funny talking to him because, though he's from Wisconsin like me, speaking French has fucked up his grammar and pronounciation to the point where he no longer sounds like an American, much less someone from Green Bay.
This week has been fucking amazing. There are pictures of the amazingness on my flickr account. Holla!
Sorry this is a day late!
I've asked Loni what a 'hoodiemac' is before, but I guess it's just an untranslateable part of Lonibonics.
Okay, so, um, I have to go to class soon because skipped both my lectures last week and then went camping and now my old roommate from Madison (20 S. Bassett, holla!) is in town. I have seen him twice in the last six years. I do not have a page done for today, but I will TRY TRY TRY to get one done by tonight.
I plan on passing out in a gutter somewhere on Alberta Street tonight, y'know, Wisconsin-style.
UPDATE:
Oh, Paris.
I was camping all weekend and only did this one sketch, with my brush pen. Landscapes is what I must practice!
I forgot to mention it last week, but I sent a box of for-consignment goodies to Cherry Bomb, including five copies of Milkyboots #7. So, Louisvillians who shun etsy, keep your eyes peeled.
Occasionally being dry-humped by Rachel is just a fact of life at Beech House.
This page took me about fifteen hours to draw. Cray-cray! Sorry the writing's small - click on the image if you want to see it bigger.
On my statcounter (though at least 5,000 were probably me). Thanks everyone!
Happy Birthday to Pam and Japes! I wish you both the best year ever, cause y'all deserve it.
...for being all smeary and thick and stupid. I was in love with it for like four hours until I actually tried to use it for this.
And no, I don't really think any of y'all are assholes.
Some better things I did with my brush pen are on my flickr site: this one is NSFW and this one may end up being the cover of my graphic novel*, which I want to finish this year.
*This is one of those words that it makes me cringe to use, kind of like "artist".
I know I'm on vacation, but I'm incorrigible. Presenting a cast portrait of Milkyboots (Portland Edition).
That's, from left to right: Emily, Loni, John, Lyra (cat), Rachel, me, Meagan, Paris, Arian and Japes. I know Loni hasn't actually been in any comics yet, but she will be. And this should stop Arian from complaining that I make him look white.
Sorry the pic is so small! If you want to see it bigger, click on the image.
For the record, Jesse has been really nice to me since. And yes, I am a tattle-tale.
Alright. I am going on vacation. People keep telling me my stuff is no longer coherant. I am going to take a week off, find a job and try to figure out what's changed.
See ya.
UPDATE: Paul writes real good. Read it.
