Devious Journal Entry
Spring has hit Seattle and it's been over two years since I've written a journal!
My long-time partner surprised me in December of 2012 with a proposal and a wedding, all on the same day. It was the most amazing night of my life and I'm happy to say that being married is pretty swank. I still get a kick out of passing him in the house and referring to him as "husband"...
Hope you are well, if you are reading this.

She-Hulk Smash.
This article made me face-hot-blood-pressure-spike-She-Hulk angry.
Do you know who Anita Sarkeesian is? How about Feminist Frequency? If you answered no to either, I humbly ask you to educate yourself. Anita wanted to analyze and deconstruct common tropes and stereotypes of female characters in games. Don't know of any? Oh c'mon... they exist as the "sexy sidekick" or "background decoration"... "man with boobs" or "the fighting f#k (https://www.deviantart.com/k) toy". Ring a bell now?
She launched a kickstarter, asking for $6,000 to do a series of videos on these topics, She reached that funding within 24 hours and over the following month, ended up raising nearly $160,0
PAX East!
Has it really been this long since I've done a journal? Yeah... it seems so.
I'm actually amazed that I've procrastinated from one PAX to another but you cannot argue with time date stamping. In a couple of days, we're headed to Boston for merriment and general geektastic camaraderie with friends from all over. I said this in my last journal entry. This weekend is PAX and it's time for getting my geek on! By the way, I just finished watermarking all the photographs from PAX Prime in 2010. Maybe I'll upload those before leaving...
PS. I also have a passel of new art to show off. Click through to each artist's gallery if you don't rec
PAX Prime!
I meant to write a new journal before now. I have lots of art to showcase and photographs to upload plus those Tanake journals.
sigh
But as usual, my procrastination has bitten me in the metaphorical arse.
This weekend is PAX. I'll have little time for being online. It's time for getting my geek on!
See you on the flip side, kiddies! I'll write again when I'm able.
