Degrees of Eccentricity

7:36am: Pomp&circumstance
With my bold new title of of author, and the absolutely unavoidable fame that 58 page hits (oh ah) on a lulu store front will bring, I have decided to restrict my hopes dreams and fears to friends only. Reply if you aren't already on THE list and would like to be. Names be helpful if I know you. I'm aware teh link between this journal and MLX isn't exactly broadcasted to people who don't know about it, but still. I'm arrogant. And cautious. And with that I dissappear from teh public eye!

9:14am: Where in Fro shows he can be tactless too
Go buy my book god damnit!

The suggestion in radio kol has been placed. I'm reserving knowledge of our radio experience as teh ace in the hole. You don't say no to people who have done the complete hitchikers radio scripts.

Getting cover resized. Tomorrow. Here. Book link. For the time being goto www.lulu.com/Oppressed and check out my store front and my rather superfluous blog.

Would anyone who has experience or knowledge of CSS be intrested in designing a store front for the oppressed proletariat?

6:01am: http://goforit.comicgen.com/d/20051221.html zombie jesus siting.

GHastly is on hiatus. I don't know what I'll do. MLX is ready to publish except for signatures on the disclaimer and one word on the back cover. I'm getting gimpy cause my foot is killing me. KoL radio possibilties are going well. That's about it.

3:32am: the spin machine
time to shake it up ladies and gents. One of the djs on radio kol has brought the possibilty of my being a guest on their show. I need to figure out a way of making skype work and find a mic. 800,000 accounts. Yeah I know they're not all active, and not that many listen to radio, but hell it's a good start and more than you'd expect to reach from the middle of iowa. Tomorrow I should be able to ascend so I can move the key chain to the mall and garner alittle bit more attention.

Soon I shall have a gold plated ferrari of my own.

6:49am: Hmmm...
Juggling clinic/ routine formating on monday. Gotta see about geting money out of my mt vernon account for the printing but it should work. ife is pretty good right now. Taking things down to teh wire, but I'd really wouldn't have it anyother way. You'd better believe that I will link whore out my book everywhere when it becomes available.

The radio regalia market in kol went up.

I've spent a bit of time pondering on my intrests. I think I find sociology attractive because I've always been an outsider. Not sure about the rest of it. I curious to see how hans will respond to the idea of my publishing an RPG.

My eality is a strange one. Things really don't seem connected anymore. There's a maddening gap, with a lot of old nostolgia, and I'm more into that general confusion. Previous I had some focus or atleast some specific uncertainty that bother me. Now, I'm comfortable, but still left with a "vagueness." If could copyrigth the use of vagueness as an abstract noun to describe general confusion I would make a billion dollars. I could jsut be that I'm tired.
good night world

2:54am: well...
I'm back into kol. hard.
www.kingdomofloathing.com is a lovely little way to whittle away the hours if anyone out there remains unenlightened.

In the span of about an hour both of my characters acquired radio free gear. My main won a contest, sending in a most bizarre compliment. My non-hardcore character bought a radio free foil from the mall after hearing that they were going ot be discontinued for new stuff. Like the key chain my hardcore character got. Step 3 is, as always profit. Off the foil. I think I might hold onto the key chain. simply for the whole feelign that I can still cheer people up once in while. It's a shame I'm going to us it for like 1 day, and then plan on going oxy for a while.

IN conclusion, having MLX as an immediate looming thing made me productive. Well, I guess I can still follow juggling leasds and atleast try to confirm that my old juggling teacher is still associated with my old high school. Still need to find a bacnk around here that'll handle the online stuff well.

take it easy all.

6:57am: More emails...
trying to get everything squared away at the moment. And looking into that jugglign thing still.

7:01pm: Mega meme

( it goes on... )

7:57am: Well...
Obligatory new Chapter pun.

Assuming nothing goes horribly wrong with shippign and such we can still work everything nessacery out.

It's edited whatever that means with my horrid grammar skills. It's together all the text is complete. missing pictures and what not. That's it.

Take a coin flip. The literal twisting of fate...

6:07am: well...
It appears there's good news and bad news.

Good news- 5 days prcoessing +6 days shipping =11 which is rediculous and not even funny.

the bad news- 5-7 weeks due to various random hold ups and inspections= too late.

Nothing can succeed with out some degree of luck.

3:37am: Maybe this won't eb so bad...
So I couldn't type the title of this post without typos.

Any way mlx now contains the phrase "bona fide midget cannon."

That's it.

7:21am: It's down to editing I guess...
Half way out. two more perks and a status effects listing. My sleep schedule is all fucked up. That's pretty much it for now.

5:15pm: Stalled again...
Still rumanating on the same old problems. Still lettign it distract me from MLX. Meh... It's only just barely evening so I'm not so worried.

I feel like with the majority of people I interact with, whether or nto they agree with me is completely independant of whether I am right or wrong. I can understand consistancy, but it's little de-humanizing to think that a lot of people who I consider friends have little to no idea where my intrests lie or don't appreciate teh fact that I'm generally not one to spout off about thigns which I am unfamiliar.

At the moment I tryign to figure out whether it truly is insecurity that bothers me about it or not.

I used to consdier myself an agnostic because I lacked faith in both god and humanity. I would have always liked to think I was wrong on the latter though.

5:40am: Independance...
I have nothing to offer on the title of this post.

It's generally going to be the standard bitching.

45 pages in on the editing. Keep on constant pins and needles by the wait surround yakitate japan torrents downloading and the "quick" tranlations of the latest imported/ stolen/ bootleg/ hellsing manga. Pulled at by debt in all directions. Trying to deal with and remain connected to the people around here, with thoughts constantly drifting to those who I shan't see for months, and the few I knew well for whom it will be even longer...

I'm not feeling particularly well right now, but I think it's only because I ate too much. I'm drading how I'll feel in the morning.

All in all I must admit taht things don't feel all that bad. Honestly... I just miss my table. A few racks would do wonders to clear up my disposition right now.

Oh and if I were to see a few familiar faces around the lounge well taht wouldn't hurt either.

Venting is rarely this cathartic. I must be on tonight.

5:47am: Both ends...
Finally got a start on the edditing of MLX. Got arlo's revisions on the first 22 doen and ran a quick spell check on the last 55 or something. I will finish this.

5:37am: The sign to finish...
It was a restful/ exhaustuing/ thoroughly enjoyable weekend. With a pleasant sunday waiting in th wings. Had fun at the q101 block party concert. Great stuff even though I'm not huge on any of them. Stadium seats though. I would killed to get down in teh crowd. Southern comfort still knocks me off my feet like anyone's first. Hurricans have done a lot to resolves the issues between us two. Last night took me down an I-max theater for the 3d showing of superman returns. Fun movie. The effects were good and the parts in 3d were well done and exciting. Tell me when they get around to brainiac. Although it was a nice break, I feel like I'm ready to get back to mlx.

Well, the ghastly forum is on the topic of RPGs at the moment. I figure I ought to jump in. I've been reading for years, at least 4. I've done what I can. Gotten in touch with publishing places, gotten in touch with web celebs, put mlx over the novel mark, time finish and let the world know.

7:08am: the fuck I haven't done anything productive today!
from the mlx reincarnation table...

Self- You come back as a common person. You can do what ever common people do. You come back as a common person, like you. Character possess all previously acquired perks that and may progress in perks as well as dance and drink and screw as normal.

6:14am: Connections....
Emailed the person at teh head of the company of teh friend that I know if the print biz. Apparantly they're mainly legal documents. Isn't it intresting how it keeps looping back to that?

I'm thinking tha maybe I ought to get in touch with taht cousin of mine who majored in film or what ever before the whole octet thingee starts.

Still need to edit. MLX is four bad ass perks and 6 descriptions away from being done.

It's a constant now.

look for a product on demand link coming soon.

No where really to go with this, just thought I remind the internet that I exist and I'm accomplishing things.

1:27pm: *lets his geek flag fly*

I think mine might be bugged because of my lack of info... I couldn't find a way out of the secodn level. I went to the trap door and it just keep takign em back to the beggining of the level.

4:43am: Brass balls
it's just a great phrase. Throwing money I don't have, at things I've never done.

Hiduism is doen the point where it looks pretty but there 2 perks that could use a bit of flava.

I get the feeling that everyone I know s becoming a professional. With zach writing for rpg company nessa doing editing on the new orleans documentary. I have absolutely no idea how I feel about working with, eitehr directly or indirectly, with these people(Zach and I have been discussing publishing and reviewing and what not, Nessa expressed intrest in working on the up coming octet prject). Don't get me wrong I appreciate anything I can get. But, I feel like the admission that I have little to no idea what I'm doing will nullify the previous momentum. For what it's worth, and that's pretty much everything, things look like they're working at the moment.

Of course the fact that people are willing to provide me with advice and intrested in what I'm doing lends that whole "write yourself a ticket to anywhere" kinda feel. Thus the confusion.

The upper res forms are done.

Ken and jick have been contacted.

10:02pm: results... again...

fro took the free ColorQuiz.com personality test! "Wants to prove to himself and others that nothing ..." Click here to read the rest of the results.

just felt like taking it again. no idea why exactly.

5:41am: settling down...
Today I woke up to a reply in my email from monte cook. He sai he's mainly out of the review side of things, but gave few words of encouragement and mentioned a possible reviewer. not a bad thign to wake up to.

GOt the brownie picture scanned in. Why aren't there any girl scout jokes in that line?

Still need to kamil jick and the guy monte reccomended. Still bad ass perks, res forms, and spell turning to do. It'll fall into place. not to worried yet.

Need to see if the guy i know in paper product's company does thermal binding. I think I might whip my torches out soon one of these days.

5:43am: Fighting the good fight
I stayed together this mornign managing to focus on MLX despite a few things stirring. This old dog still has soem kick left in him.

As of last nigth I can say that I have co authored a novel. Not an over whelming statement but I think it's pretty good considering I've enver really thougth myself a writer.

Need to figure out how work the sister's scanner still.

Need to get on the whole juggling and producing income thing.

Need to get on the POD mlc printing and producing income thing.

I'm kinda surprised that I think they're all things I clear up with in the week.

Before anyone jumps the gun MLX is not finished. Just past the 50k mark. still ened to edit. a few bits of flavor text and... Yeah bad ass perks. but only like 5 or something. Line it up I'm ready to go.

5:08am: More ghastly fun...
so I was reading through today's comic an www.ghastlycomic.com
It's pretty good, not quite to teh point of motiviating me to leave my happy and stable agnostic existance, but still good.

I'v seen some bizarre thigns on that forum. Flatworms and the mating habit of penis fencing, more varities of porn than I can name or count, and more tentacles than you can shake a stick at.

There aren't many things that frustrate my sensiblities... However why japan, or any one in any country would feel the compulsion to link areobics and publics safty... Well...

I am at a loss. Someone want to summarize what the guy at the end says?

Apparently there an entire series designed to to teach helpful phrases while exercising. Odd but a little more sensible than the mugging one being an isolated incident. I'm kinda dissapointed now.
