I'm done with school.
This last Tuesday I gave my thesis presentation and that was the last of it. The presentation went okay in my mind. I did not burst into flames, pass out, cry, or vomit, so I'm counting the damn thing as a victory...of sorts. After that my illustration class went out to Pizza Luce so our professor and accomplished illustrator, Andy Powell (earthispissed.com,) could drop some words of wisdom on how to make it in the intense world of modern illustration. Once through, me and Dain stopped by Sweeneys to throw back spirits and swap, what ended up to be, meaningless banter. Many other CVA students ended up dropping by and we turned the night into an interesting little party. The night ended at Dain's apartment with everyone watching comedic youtube videos, and me passing out on a incredibly uncomfortable beanbag chair.
This Monday I leave for one of the most boring, expendable places I have ever been, Appleton, Wisconsin. I'll be there with limited family through Christmas and will be returning to the Twin Cities the evening of the 26th. If any old friends happen to read this, and still know my number, give a guy a ring. When I return to MPLS I'll be bringing Texas' newest resident, Eric Greiner, with me. So to everyone who already misses seeing the kid zip around causing car accidents on his bike, dial him up.
The following Monday I'll be leaving for New York City to visit my good buddy Jake Stone. Yes, that is New Years Eve day. We have already discussed and agreed to avoid that whole ball drop fiasco at all costs. Dive bars, Hendricks gin, and cheap women will be our celebratory party favors. Minus the cheap women of course. Hell, I believe Jake is in a committed relationship anyway, which truly ruins my chances of meeting any interesting females since I have no clue how to talk to random women. Jake has always been the master of that domain. Anyway, I'll have pics from that adventure up shortly thereafter.
Speaking of pics. I put some pics on Flickr of my thesis piece in the gallery. My sis took them while visiting last weekend. Props to her....er....something.

Happy motherfucking holidays.
