Decomposing Train

Half-watching GITS:SAC while resting my arms from an epic bout of Guitar Hero 5 and then a phone call.  I have cell-phone elbow… I seriously need to hook my dang bluetooth headset up some time.

There could be ominous rumblings in the land of haven’t-published-a-single-page-yet webcomics — a friend called me and wanted in on the project.  Dragoncon came and went this year, and I didn’t go (again).  The annual kickinthenuts that I need to actually get on with this damn thing at some point before I die.

Anyway, maybe something will come of it. <ramble off>.

I just watched the first hour and twenty minutes of the Transformers movie (the Michael Bay one).  That’s all I ever will.

Ahh, maybe I’m just naive.  Or cynical.  Or both.  Probably both.
