Anthrocon!
Posted 12 years agoSo we're here at anthrocon. Pittsburgh is a pretty awesome city. Mostly enjoying spending some time with my wife and for now, Laying down. Looking forward to everything. Hi to everyone. And I'm caffeinated. Hai...
Well...if it seemed too good to be true.
Posted 12 years agoMy service manager came up to me at the end of a particularly long and difficult day today he thanked me for my honest contribution to his service department and said "I'm going to have to let you go."
I'm too green for what they need right now. I'm not seasoned enough. If they had more seasoned mechanics it would be fine but he doesn't. And that's that.
I've never been fired before. To be honest I always thought it would be for texting on the clock or some such thing. Not for being too inexperienced I an understaffed shop. It's not his fault. Everyone he's had lined up to come in has dropped out on him. And he's under a lot of pressure from his bauss to get things turned around.
I honestly have no idea what lies before me. But I trust The Lord and I'm stepping forward hand in hand with my wife. I have no idea how we're going to make this work. But I have her and I trust that everything has a purpose, even if it doesn't serve what I am wanting.
On the bright side I don't have to worry about getting up for work on Monday after driving back from anthrocon.
I don't mean to be preachy. I'm jus putting my thoughts down as they come.
Thank you all

Upside downs
Posted 12 years agoSo. There's been a lot of stuf going down since fcn. I've had to hold out on my motor project for to buy other things. Tools specifically. Because... I GOT HIRED AS A TECH! It's just entry level stuff, oil changes and tires , but I'm stoked. Also nervous. I've never really done this day in and day out. I was also hoping to get promoted through at the chevy dealership I'm at. And I'm going to a doge jeep Chrysler dealership. Chryslers suck.
My instructor works at this dealership so that helps. Needless to say ill be doing a lot of learning. Kind of a baptism by fire. But I'm still excited. I've been schooling for a couple years and I'm finally getting to the field.
In other news. I have my advanced electrical final. I passed two of my state certs. And ironman 3 comes out this Friday, who's stoked for that?

FCN con report n'stuff
Posted 12 years agoFcn was a great convention this year. I can't really pin down just one thing that stands out. Actually I'd be lucky to pull just one clear memory out of the caffeine and sleep deprived memories of the weekend. The dance I went to rocked even if I really didn't ^p^
I enjoyed spending A lot of time with my wife. It was really nice to spend almost the whole weekend with her. Even though my Friday workday sucked everything worked out.
I'd thank all of you that I met and hammed it up for and with, but I don't remember all of you. You all know who you and your awesome selves Are.
Saturday was great to get some sleeping in. Suited my tail off.
Anyways I thoroughly enjoyed pissing the f**k out of some people in the menagerie who were playing some table game. Something to do with a mansion. And definently nothing to do with our shouting uno at them when they asked us to turn our music down :p
>_< too much fun too much caffeine, I'm really sore and tired. In other words. I had a great time.

Posted 12 years ago
sharpe19 here sneaking onto Pizza's account cause he totally left it open XD While you are at work my dear I am announcing to the world just how amazing you are. Every day knowing you has been an adventure that I will never forget <3 You help me when I'm going through Hell, even snagging icecream along the way. You bring light into my world even when it seems at its dreariest. I have never been more happy in my life and I have you to thank for that. You make me laugh when I want to cry, smile when I am down, support all my crazy antics and even join in on them. You are one in a million and you work hard at what you love and stand strong in what you believe in. You're stubborn and sarcastic, unforgettable and unbelievable. I would never have made it as far as I have without your love and support. I hope you get a smile out of this when you read it, and a chuckle when you realize.. I've hacked your facebook page and DA TOO!!!!
Love you so very much <3

350 Sbc. It begins...
Posted 12 years agoSo I finally found a guy with a cheap 350 small block. Going to convert it to carbureted from TBI, maybe a cam and lifters. It's set up stock for roller hydraulic lifters. Maybe I'll get to throw long tube headers and y pipe on there. I'm totally going to be broke for the next three months... Yeahhh. So. I don't think anyone has spare Sbc parts lying around.
Also many thanks to my wonderful wife for not only allowing me to pursue this project but also encouraging me. ^^

Posted 13 years agomy computer is unbroked...reuploaded the OS...and *fingers x'd* it works now...
so...im on the digital art learning curve now...and i hate it....this stuff will get learned but its frustrating....i've also got this thing where im stubborn and like to do all my learning self taught...without much effort. so im actually breaking down and reading tutorials on how to color and stuffs...what can i say...im a lazy butt.
this whole comic process is going to take a LONG time...i have apx 70% of the EARLY story in some sort of storyboard format...about 10% in a roughed format ready for lineart and about a frame and a half linearted....
yeahhhhh...this is going to be a much longer process than just throwing some colors on it and slapping the internet in the face...yo
but its going to learn me alot...stay posted for roughs to appear in sketches or some shiznit
