progress

I know I haven’t been around that much lately, and as lame of a blogging cliche as that is, it still holds true. I don’t have a lot of time right now, for a large variety of reasons which I’m not going to go into at this point, but I did want to drop a line quickly to prove that I still breathe in and out… at least to the point that I can operate a keyboard here and there. So here’s a succinct rundown of important events in my life and the Gilgrim family:

• Baby Shower was Awesome
• Day Job is changing… oddly in fact, but moving forward in its own weird ways
• Goliath and I have been reunited - at least as far as he is back where he belongs, on my desk
• Moving to Tustin and leaving Fullerton far behind in about 2 weeks
• Sorting through all of the gifts and duplicates for Salem from the shower and preparing for our son’s arrival
• Finally took some ‘tummy’ pics of the lovely APrilhead and our beautiful child-thing growing in her stomach
• Crunching away at the GN project
• Was given the opportunity for a new project (a flash game)
• Completed a 15 pg comic-guide for Grand Chase in less than 4 days
• The beard is on its way back
• Missing some of my friends
• Legal pronouncements regarding my previous life have been finalized - I’m free!
• Rediscovering my love for horror film once more
• My little Vaio monitor at home is about to die suddenly
• The Cemeterians looks like it will be collected in a full-blown trade
• Planning on painting again, it’s been a year since I last did, which is more than overdue now
• Began a strange relationship with crossword puzzles via APrilhead
• Being very excited about becoming a father within the next 7 or 8 weeks
• Starting to draw again, learning to enjoy it again, slowly
• Cranking the Adicts, the Horrorpops and the Misfits in my earphones at work
• Paying bills, starting bank accounts, and trying to become a proper adult (not the same as grownup) for the sake of being a proper father
• Not moving to Seattle just yet
• Loving APrilhead more and more every single day
