I'm slowly turning into a Florida bum. I've stopped tucking in my shirt and started wearing shorts and sandals. I've also started swimming a bit more. We've been hitting the pool since waking up later in the day. When I start waking up early again, I'll likely be strolling to the beach. I hadn't been in a pool in about eighteen years previously, but I can at least float a bit and locomote in the water without a lot of trouble, now. It's such a good exercise routine but I never really feel it until I get out of the pool. One of my friends claimed he would come down and teach me how to surf. The daytimes are so pretty that I usually wait until the sun goes down to begin my regular work routine. I've yet to see any of the rain everyone warned me about. It's been pretty dry actually.

Speaking of work, everything's chugging along as normal. I've finished the initial color pages on the third installment of the Mary Ann project, and the transfer to black and white pages has gone fairly nice, saving me time and allowing me to cram more pornography in each release. It's also saves a bit of disk space, which isn't a big deal to most people, but I have heard of some with slower connections having trouble downloading an entire project. In coloring Trish in sexual situations, I realized I had very little reference material for black women in my porn vault. It required me to hit the net for more, which came in handy when rendering the transition from dark to pink. Caucasian butterbeans are a little more simple to render. And that was about three sentences too many regarding the coloration of foofies.

I'm pushing past one of the last "serious" chapters of Better Days. I enjoy doing the humorous ones much more, even though sometimes the serious moments are just as necessary to set up other moments for the future. I always worried that as the characters grew and changed, the kinds of things that originally drew some people to the comic, would no longer be there. But, things push on... the next chapter is positively nerdy, even if it starts out deceptively. But anything with Tommy in it is nerdy by default.
