So today was the first day in a while that we had sunshine. That was one of the most momentous things that happened today. New Zealand has been fun, for sure, but so far I haven't really done anything besides half a concert, and the occasional bar. Part of that is because we all get back from work exhausted, part because we haven't figured out what to do, and now because my roommates are semi-big stoners and now have a dealer, which is great for them, but Zack gets really fucking annoying when he's high, and hasn't been sober since he got the weed (at least while I'm around).
Today was the start of my second day of work. This morning I went to work, and met Sarah, one of the publishers, and she just got engaged so there was champagne. That was cool, but it was a little early in the morning for alcohol, but I had a little because she just got engaged and figured why not. Then the rest of the day was mostly working on the Festschrift, which was pretty fun. One of the images I scanned was from a book about an Allosaurus. The actual book is about its fight with an Ankylosaur, and mind you this is a book for kids, and in the end the allosaur is beaten and bleeding profusely. So I did some formatting and whatnot, good times. Also worked a bit more on the nurse book, I'm already at the 1970s and 150+ pages in. It's pretty good.
Also today Prince William was in town. My boss asked if I wanted to go out and see him, but I really had no desire to. I understand that sure he'll be the next King of England, but I really don't care. I hope I didn't offend him.
I actually left work at five today, and got the Olympos at the Borders across from work. I took the bus from work and got back to the apartment, and then spent an hour ironing. I think I'm doing it wrong because I only did like three or four shirts, and they're still kinda wrinkly. Fuck. Then the night consisted of T.V. the highlight being Band of Brothers, first episode, which is a really great show. Also caught part of Dexter. Anywho, tomorrow I'll probably be working on poetry. Then in the coming days I'm going to be doing some more work for Script Frenzy. I'm going to be writing a comic book script but I can't decide between two idea. The first would be for a self contained graphic novel, which I have already done some of the legwork for. The other one would be for more of an ongoing thing, which I actually like a little more, but haven't put anything on paper yet. Also I would need to look up some historical data.
