Jacob = Lucifer?

Got bored on Wednesday. Tried to go to work. It was raining. Got soaked. Starting coughing again. Found out all computers were down. Went to pub for an hour. Got sent home. Played Assassin's Creed II for the next two days while watching Lost.

I took it as a sign from his noodeliness on high that I wasn't supposed to go to work again this week. I was getting better, now I'm not. The joys.

I'm watching the final two seasons of Lost on account of wandering off early in season 5 when it was on. It really did get a hell of a lot better in the last two seasons, not that I have a clue what is going on but I feel like at least they knew. That was what pissed me off about S3 and 4; it just looked like a whole load of random things that happened with no real thread or point to it. They made out there was this great plan to the whole thing, but then failed to back it up. The same thing happened in BSG but they managed to back that up by NOT killing off every character you actually gave a rats about.

I got a little confused by the fact that the guy who plays Jacob also plays Lucifer's vessel in Supernatural. It makes trying to work out who's evil much harder.

Bed rest

Went to see the doctor today on account of the lung that is trying to escape me. Her advice -'rest until it goes away'... yay...

So been at home all day, not doing much really. wrote a good 1000 words to add to the 2000 I did last night, so I'm all proud of myself for that. I've also done about 9 pages of doodles, mostly people and faces from old photo's of uni and stuff. Some are good, some not so much. If I carry on drawing like this (unlikely as most of my creativity comes in spurts and starts, manic one day then nothing for months as life takes over) I might make a few webcomic type things. Nothing fancy, I'm not committed enough to do that, but just a few funnies I think of. Working on some of the characters in my head, will prob get them down on paper tomorrow if I still feel like it and I haven't... ya know... died.

Chapter 2 - Fin but crape!

So I'm trying to write my magnus opus again. Currently finished chapter 2. It is shit and will need heavy reworking as will the first chapt (and by heavy I mean complete rewrite) but need to just power through and get it done or I'm going to spend forever reworking the same first chapts over and over. I think I'll have a better idea of what needs to be done once I've finished and I know what needs to be put into it and where it needs to go. So-

Chapt 1 - Into the West
Chapt 2 - The Ruby City
Chapt 3 - ?? Something about Magi and lakes maybe? No idea what this will be about so I'll name it when I'm further in.

This is madness! THIS IS AMECON!

I went to Amecon 2010. It was fun. Now I am destroyed. I shall describe it shortly.

Good con, could have been better.

Reasons.

Good Con
+Interesting and informative panels
+I now have two shiny Sephiroths and they only cost be £30 for the two. Yay.
+Nia get up was awesome. People took lots of photos of me and I was adored.
+Lots of people in fantastic cosplays
+Introduced me to http://www.khaoskomix.com/home.html. It is awesome. You should read it. It has the man love. And the lady love. And the man/transgender love times two!
+Fun times with good people. Many hijinks did ensue. Like Dave burning his face off with super glue. How we did laugh.
+Energizer Bunny Piplup. He just kept going and going and going...

Could have been better
-Sick. As. A. Dog. Seriously. People asked if I had whooping cough.
-Several things were late and badly run. Many technical issues though I can't blame them too much. They were running this at someone elses uni.
-There was barely anything happening on Friday.
-Many things clashed. Pub Quiz, Yaoi panel and Yuri panel were all on at the same time. I wanted to go to all three, went to the first and then walked out after 2o mins due to it being crap and later found out that the Yaoi panel was apparently awesome. Dang.
-I shouted at people because they were not able to read my mind. That was wrong of me.

So yeah. That happened.
