Last week, on Wednesday, the 14th, I worked my last day at Borders. The rest of that week and the weekend that followed disappeared in a bunch of Borders closing parties (and the hang-overs that followed). Yesterday, Monday, the 19th, was a brand new day. In short, it was the beginning of my gamble to... Continue Reading →
Saying My Goodbyes
This isn't going to be another extremely bleak post; despite the title, I've decided that it won't because, although I still stand by everything I said in Preparing for the Storm (despite how embarrassingly true all of it was), I'm determined to not be as depressed as I was when I wrote that post. Today's my... Continue Reading →
Preparing for the Storm
Before I get into my thoughts, I wanted to thank everyone who liked The Turning Point. I usually don't get a lot of attention here in my small corner of wordpress (especially since all of my entertainment posts went over to Infinite Ammo) so getting likes from four people (avelainegauvin, mavisephaneuf, arienneflamand, and, of course, chaosmechanica) at once was really...

Infinite Ammo
The weeks since my last post, "The Turning Point", have been pretty hectic. Work is, naturally, depressing, and afterward home is—more so than before—a constant effort to get as much professional work done as humanly possible. Why "more so than before"? Because directly after "The Turning Point", I rallied Chaos Mechanica to start on that new... Continue Reading →
The Turning Point
I've danced around the topic a few times on this site, careful to not talk about the actual experience or give any details about it, but, at this point, I don't see a reason to hide that I work at Borders. I'm still not going to talk about working there or any of the people... Continue Reading →

The Death of Ultimate Spider-Man… By the Amazing Spider-Man’s Hand
After work today, I met my good friend @GentlemanMonstr for some Five Guys and a stop at Midtown Comics. As the undisputed overlord of the comic world (in my opinion), the Gentleman had something obscure in mind. For me, it was the exact opposite: Ultimate Spider-Man #160. In all honesty, it was something I wasn't looking forward... Continue Reading →
The PDF That Just Wouldn’t Die
I'm not sure how it is for you, but Photoshop projects always take longer than I expect. I have an idea and think, I can get that done in an hour tonight. But then I get in front of my computer and realize I just can't edit a part of the project the way I'd intended... Continue Reading →

Apocalypse 2011: The Chillest Apocalypse Ever?
I woke up this Apocalypse at 10:04 AM. I was not in my own bed, but not in an apocalyptic kind of way; I crashed at the "ghetto fabulous" flat of Ronin (the camera-wielding video smith of HotMop Films) and woke up on the sofa bed. The sun was shining through the window and, looking... Continue Reading →
