“Stupid lazy. Or rut.”

Thu, 27. Sep 9:47 AM, 2012

Hey guys. Sorry for updating.  Not feeling sick anymore (I do have a cough, but it's nothing serious).  I also have my job starting up.  Although it's part time, I'm still looking around/working on getting something better.

 

I honestly don't know why I haven't uploaded the new strip.  It's been sitting on my comp for a while.  Maybe I'm just not satisfied with it.  I liked the randomness before I jumped into the story arc of my first job.  Although I highly doubt that's the issue.  Got some mental issues, lost my way a bit for the comic...  I blame earning money.  You start getting greedy once you get a whiff of it.

 

Anyways, I don't know when the comic is coming back quite yet, perhaps next week.  Again, so sorry for just up and disappearing for a while... I'm always around, so if you even want to talk or check up on me cuz you're so concerned, feel free to email me at the VDoML email at: visualdiaryofmylife@gmail.com .  I won't bite.  It's also not my personal email address so spam it up if you'd like too. ^_-

Stupid late update. It's still the 17th on the west coast! XD

Anyways, yeah. I'm being a touch lazy. I don't want to bring up my side project just yet.

This is The Wall. I'll explain how it works on the next strip. For some reason I'm really enjoying toying with perspective in these latest strips.

Sorry. Pink Floyd lyrics often come to me but this time I felt they demanded a post. I guess lol

I have a sort of ADD as well except that it's writing based.

Currently I write Level 30 Psychiatry (video game parody comic), a WIP series called Wishy Washy (like a younger "I dream of Jeanine" with more stoner jokes) and scripts for a Street Fighter animated series and Team Fortress movie I know will never get made.

Guess I need to keep the neurons buzzing. Leaves a tone of unfinished work though.

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on you guys. ^_- I'm not always commenting but I've been reading. I'm itching to make a guest comic when I've got the time. The only thing is, I don't know how popular the games are for people to understand the reference...

XD

Yeah. I've got this, my new side project, and Project Eta (this has seen on and off again work for the past several years).... and irl work. Sigh.

Unfinished work isn't bad. Just means you need to get around to finishing it so that you have something to show for your time. XD

Mizu, we've pulled out everything from Space Quest to Zork to Bubsy the Bobcat. Do whatever the heck you want! XD

On a side note, this reminds me that I was planning to make a guest comic for you, too. Give me some time to finish reading up your archives.

Awesome. Maybe this'll get me in the mood to get back into art. Been in a rut lately... :/

Woo Guest comic! That'd be cool! :D X3

Just realized we can now joke you've hit a high wall with making the comic.

Anyway, hopefully you'll get the inspiration back soon enough. Don't feel pushed to get on with it; You're not doing it right if you're not having fun!

This. XD This is true. I hit a wall. In the comic and in real life.

Thanks for the support! Currently trying to ease into my new job and get myself rolling on another one...

It's getting close to a year if not already that I've been running this comic. @_@

Actually, it'll be exactly one year since you've started on October 20th!
But unless you wish to make a celebration post during your busy scedule, maybe you can have a week full of fan comics?

Yeah, I just noticed that... XD Darn, I thought it fell on a Friday so I could make it a Fail comic. Ohwell. I'll still make a post by then.

I don't mind fan comics rolling in. Though. Just need to make the time to get em on the site.

Hey. Yeah, I guess I'm doing okay. Job, internship... IMO, too much on my hands considering I try to please everyone and anyone... I forget to take care of myself.

Emotionally not that great, reason why I rather not work on the comic atm...

Wonder if I still have fans left... Sigh.

Sure you have fans left :P

I am sorry to hear things aren't going very easy right now for you. I hope things turn out well and you find your feet with it all.

We wouldn't exactly be fans if we didn't stick around through dormant times would we?

We all know how life can move in awkward ways; I never got to making a guest comic for you (Which will be made and sent within the month, promised) because I now have a job, which saps a lot of energy and entheusiasm to do anything else at home but sleep and maybe do a hobby on the side. I still draw, though.

Don't worry about us. Always prioritize your own wellbeing, even if it requires sacrifice. I, for one, am sure you will persevere.

I suppose I'm a bit late in replying, but I'm still here as well. I hope everything is looking up for you now that New Years is done with. :)

Fans come and go, but friends stick around. So ya: I'll be here. IM me sometime.
