So, yeah, finished the graphic novel issue on Friday and Saturday (no sleep Friday night), had way too much caffeine trying out the cold brew equipment...Yeah, I know you don't need lab gear to make it, but we wanted it NOW.  Dropped Freaky off, and went downtown to Witless to my people.

Met a few guys at a barrel-fire party in an abandoned lot on Drachmann, not far from the Meatrack, and whipped them into a frenzy.  Had a good time watching a few of them fight each other, then staggered off down 12th street.  Things got a little hazy after that...Everything was swaying and blurry.  Got into some kind of altercation, came away with scraped knuckles.  I still have my wallet, so I guess I won.

After that, it's a blur, and at some point Maria and her sister Shorty were loading me into the back of Maria's jeep.  Woke up alone at home at about 11AM Sunday morning, having missed all my pills for the night.  Spent a glorious day of withdrawl symptoms, got in come kind of fight with Kai on IRC (nothing too serious, I hope), and then accidentally took two doses of my sleeping pills.  Somehow drove to work at 5:30AM, and haven't accomplished shit all day.

Needless to say, I'm a wreck right now, and I won't be writing the Unvarnished Truth #2 until tomorrow morning, probably at 9AM MST.  Sorry, but that's just the way it is...My brain is in the right zone for writing, but there's nothing there to write...I think I'd rather be yet another day late, than to post some brain-damaged jabbering in place of a well thought out rant.  Brain-damaged jabbering has its uses, but not in this particular case.

Okay for now,

I'm in the last week of college.

I can promise new comic/wireframe updates when it all wraps up, though.
Is it plugged in?

Also, me and my GF are going to be doing mad science experiments all throughout the summer, pulling inspiration from your optical stunner. First up is Ferrofluid, then the solar laser, then a railgun. If we have time we'll build a virus aquarium.

I'm too busy at work.

I don't even have enough time to sleep most days.

been bogged down both with the two LARPs I'm developing.

--One of them is the Dreaming, which I've talked about at length
--The other is NERO, which you may have heard of. I'm one of writers for the 9th edition rulebook, which was supposed to be released in something like the year 2000. We're finally getting around to releasing it, and it is being met with the worst gnashing and weeping of all time.

Past that, I'm getting geared up to be running a nero national event in Chicago. It's going to be a gigantic clusterfuck and I am considering not going due to the even worse gnashing and weeping which will be present at the event. If anybody will be around in Chicago in the last weekend of April, come be a monster in the dungeon I'm running! I promise you will get to eat hapless adventurers. In some sense.

Rail gun's harder than it sounds.  We've been fucking with the idea in the I&E lab for some time now.  The trick is that each coil has to shut off as the leading edge of the projectile (in our case, a nail) reaches the center of the coil.  This is simple in theory, but very difficult in practice.

I know what you mean.  Too many projects going on at once.  I've decided to cut back to the MSY project, work, the gym, and badfun.  Everything else is on a back burner until after the middle of June.

I post best and most prolifically from work.  For the job I am lawful neutral, and this place is my venting ground.

Being flooded out of our office ATM, I'm doing shit with brass and bone, working out, and generally being relaxed.  Also I still have a job, and get paid vacation until they sort a temporary office out. 

Um... yay?

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Yeah, it's my home machine.

Take it to one of the more seriously wrecked areas, find yourself some floating debris to sit on, and write whatever comes into your diseased and mal-adjusted brain.
