It's been quite some time since my last update here...such is the story of my now established relationship with DA. But I can't sleep (as often is the reason for me posting here) so I believe I'll give a little update on things happening of late.

First off, I want to start by saying that I haven't been on the internet much lately. Mostly do to my need to attend to my life OFF the web. My comics, drawings, writing, and even my gaming life have all taken a back seat to my primary focus right now. I've moved on to trying to build my own life outside my little bubble I've built under my parent's roof. Seeing as my girlfriend and I have taken the steps of advancing our relationship to higher levels, we are both in the process of looking for a place all our own. THAT is the primary reason I have been all but non-existent on the web.

But alas, as this is the case, my time on the web will take an even BIGGER hit upon our faithful trip to our own path. Seeing as we are both on minimum wage jobs right now, all we will be able to afford are insurance, utilities, the rent, and gas (as well as a few of the other amenities of living such as food...and the occasional night on the town XD). Meaning, there is a very good chance that we won't have the internet. I might be able to hack into someone elses lan or wireless network (if they don't have a password) or even hit my parent's place and bum the interweb off of them (as I'm doing now). But for the most part, I will be a scant sight some time in the near future.

Secondly, I would like to address a matter that has recently BOMBARDED the media. That's right, the ever growing story that the once chart topping Michal Jackson has died. News that is, in deed, tragic. No matter how you viewed the black man turned white woman, it still cannot be taken away from him that he was a revolutionary. He helped set the tone for the next wave of popular music and without him, the world would be a different place. I remember a good time, almost as if it was yesterday, that I was listening to his chart topping, ear bending music and enjoying every lyric. Now I go back and listen to them out of nostalgia or to get a good laugh. But no matter the controversy he brought up, no matter the overwhelming number of jokes and puns that have been made at his expense, there is still no changing that he will be missed. So here's to you, Mike...may you forever be "bad" and "thrill" the cosmos in your own flamboyant way.

Now for less pressing matters. Me ranting about a movie that I'm SURE that you have (or will, at some point) seen. That's right, Transformers 2. While I'm certain that you will all have something good to say about this movie and how awesome it is or even how much you want to see it. Well my opinion on it grows more and more strong each day. And that opinion is...I FUCKING HATE IT!!!! You heard me! I hate that movie's god-awesome, heart-pounding, stupendously created guts!!! "Why is that, Flantics?" you may be asking, "Why do you hate this masterpiece so?" I'll tell you...it has been the very BANE of my existence for the past half-week. I have gone into work EVERYDAY for the past THREE MOTHER-FUCKING-DAYS and walked into that concession stand to serve the MILLIONS AND MOTHER-FUCKING MILLIONS of people who choose to come in and "grace" my theater with their service. FIVE FUCKING THEATERS!!! FIVE! All of them SOLD OUT!!! For THREE DAYS!!!!!!!!! So you go on and keep praising that movie for being godly and giving us such awesome entertainment value...but some part of me...no matter HOW much I enjoy watching it when (not IF, but WHEN...because I WILL see it) I see it...there will still be some part of me that hate's that movie to the very soul of it's wretched existence.

Rant done. See you on the flipside.
