Been Away for Work, Busy Busy, Comics, Jim Lee!

Been busy of late, abominormally so. Been in dire need of substantial moneys (like, savings "goes towards important stuff" moneys) so I've been doing my bit for the man. I'll respond to the comments just after posting this one blog though...

Last week, the Armageddon Expo came to Melbourne, which was cool to see. It's seriously nothing compared to the likes of San Diego or New York's Comic Cons, but it's one of the two bigs in Melbourne. Anyway, Jim Lee and the Wildstorm crew were there signing, and I got a wicked sketch (which I'll post later), but my goddamn, stupid mobile phone cost me a fuckin' one on one interview with Jim Lee! I had tried to organise something through the organiser of the show, but was unable to get in touch with him (instead having to leave messages on voicemail). I never heard back, or so I thought...

Last night my phone alerted me to the fact that I had four voicemail messages. All of them were from over a week ago -- INCLUDING the organiser of the show saying I could do the interview, I just needed to call him back before the show! I hate mobiles! I hate my mobile! Why did you not alert me IMMEDIATELY AFTER I missed the fucking call?!? NNYYYAAAAARGH!!!

(Thanks to Scott for doing his part in hooking that up though, even though technology failed me!)

Anyway, immediately after doing Armageddon and catching up with some mates (including Darren Close, creator of Killeroo -- something very cool to post on that tomorrow!) I had to shoot down to the Peninsula for work! Busy, busy, busy!

Still, I am home now and will have some cool news in the coming days.
