Going to work as normal, but leaving early for the Eye Institute quarterly check-up. After that, dilation drops or not, I expect to go back to the office and do what I can for the rest of the work day. I promised as much.

Meantime, installing more brushes in MangaStudio/Clip Studio Paint tonight. Where to "file" the skin and hair "brushes"?

Decided to fiddle with some wordmark design practice as well today whilst listening to the World Cup Final.

In case you're wondering, I have no stake in this one. Argentina vs. Deutschland? Meh. If Canada were in there? Yeah, I'd probably be screaming like some of the background noise we're hearing on the radio or the TV. As it is, I'm not too excited. It's fun to watch other people across the world vent their hopes and fears regarding the "Beautiful Game", though. And I might go take in an Ottawa Fury FC match at Lansdowne Park sometime in the next few weeks just to see if I get caught up in the fun. (Yes, if anyone in Ottawa-Gatineau reading this wants to join in the fun and/or experimentation, I'd consider turning a solo trip into a group expedition. You know where to find my e-mail address.)

Anyway, it's good to have the background noise while I teach myself the typography and FX tools of Adobe Illustrator CS4.

More on other stuff later...

"Accomplished" isn't all of it, though. For a while there today, "frustrated" would not have been out of line to describe the mood today either.

And tomorrow, it's back to regular job-hunting and other errands, including a writing workshop.

Back to you!

Seems like I'm running around trying to keep a handle on any number of things at the moment.
  • Local Hero: I'm about two and a half pages away from wrapping up the bulk of the work on # 1. There's some minor fixing-up on some stuff here and there on the earlier pages, but that shouldn't take too long.
  • Commission Work: I've taken on some commission work. I do that on occasion, and I'll put the details up as soon as everything's clear to share.
  • Random Weather Thought for Ottawa-Based Readers: It's been a good week, hasn't it?
  • Star Trek Fan Notes: Picked up [livejournal.com profile] dduane's Empty Chair, wrapping up her "Rihannsu-verse" saga(for now?). I hope to review that before too long. Also, I've been enjoying Corps of Engineers: Aftermath, an anthology collecting some of those SCE e-books that Pocket Books has been trying to persuade us all to become fonder of. I prefer the hardcopy, thanks!
  • Software Notes: I've started studying SketchUp. Might come in handy down the line.
  • Account Upgrading: Yep. I went and got myself a paid account. Figured it was time. Yes, it means I've gotten one of those e-cash arrangements, which is relevant re: commission work that I spoke of a little further up this posting.

More to follow...
