A complaint

[Jar_Jar_Binks]

I received a complaint from Sheana. She said I was too quiet. That I should get my ass on twitter or something. Fact is I'm not too quiet, on the contrary! I'm loud as ever. Just a bit busy. Really busy. I haven't even had the time to watch Venture Bros s04e04 yet! So I have little time or patience to get on twitter. I'm doing the next best thing: post here to check out how you're all doing. Hi all! How are you doing?

PS it was not my intention to paint Sheana as some kind of complaining nag. She didn't actually use the word ass, although I bet she now wishes she had thought of using it. Oh, the reason I asked if you have season 12 dvd's is because Roger Daltrey does a little bit of commentary on the Who episode. Very short, but neat! The deleted scene of him saying F  ck you, Marge! is also there.

Love,

Hey, welcome back, Matty!

It'll be fun to have you around again. It's been a bit quiet without you. Oh, and the latest Venture Brothers is awesome.

EDIT: I'm Chris, in case you remember me. Or in case you don't remember me. Still Chris.

Ass!

Yay, it's Matty! Nice to see you around again, man! Don't disappear for so long like that! 

And hah, oh yeah? I'll never buy a DVD above Season 8, but maybe I'll rent it or something. The commentaries are usually my favorite part, anyways.

Hey, you're...that guy? Hiya!

How's the packaging on Season 12, anyway? I've heard all the horror stories about 11's packaging, but haven't heard anything about 12. (Not that I've actually bothered to look, of course.)

Season 12 has kind of four pull-out sleeves as opposed to the fold-in format of the first five seasons and the stackable plastic of 6-10 (I don't have 11).  That's the best way I can describe it.

And then there's this.

Sort of like WALL-E or the Futurama movies, then? A'right, then.

Hey Chris, I don't forget people, especially not the more interesting ones!

I can talk a lot on what sucks more: season 12 the episodes or season 12 the packaging, but instead I opt to tell you what I have been up to the last few months:

- Been to Tokyo, Japan. Fun times!
- Helped build a big float for a cultural-historical parade, and we'll start designing next year's on monday
- Begun my own little animation company, working on some small illustration projects at the mo
- Working together with an animation production company to develop and get funding for my (and my creative partner's) own animated short film. The producers approved my synopsis this week with a few notes, so I'm writing the treatment now. Which also involves lots of sketching, since I can't just type words to develop an animated film. Hopefully we'll have a big budget early next year so we can start production

The ravages of time are not pretty. And he never had much of one to begin with. 

That's super cool Matty, wow! That's keepin' busy alright! Good luck with the self-employment, that's awesome!

I still think some folks should get on Twitter or similar sites. It's actually really easy and fast to do stuff with, and good for keeping track of people. Also nice to see more of the every-day stuff outside of a fandom context.

I'd get on Twitter, but I know I'd never bother to tweet.

Though I do use its RSS to follow a few people.

You're making your way in the world, Matty! Sounds like you've had a good time. And yes, good luck with the company and the film! If you can make money from what you like doing, that's awesome.

Meh, twitter. If I ever want to communicate, the #sfwc chatroom has always been good enough for me.
