Urg. I really need to pull myself out of the tumblr vortex at this moment. But it's so easy to get sucked in, especially on a day when a fan comic of mine is getting lots of likes and reblogs. I've gotten 3000 notes in the last 12 hours. I've gone from, 50 followers to 80. That is.... disconcerting, embarrassing, heady, mesmerizing. I especially like scrolling through my activity page and reading all the tags that people add. When they're cute I then go check out their blog. (Also, whenever someone reblogs my artifact of history ficlet I automatically check out their blog.)

But no, I need to remind myself -- this is tumblr fame. It is primarily a bunch of bi teenage girls with short attention spans. That's not the same as real life.

::deep breath::

I think I need to stay off tumblr for a bit. Drink from the cooling pool of LJ/DW.

Or at least ignore my fandom tumblr.

(Thank god that dumb trend line has started tapering off. Please drop back down to the sub-10s? ::pets personal tumblr trendline which stays in the 1-2 range::)

In other news, I spent much of the week working on the next Tisquantum pages, but my wrist/thumb started hurting again, so I've given myself a break yesterday and today. (Apparently drawing Captain America comics doesn't count, b/c my posture when drawing on the mini-tablet puts stress on different parts of my hand -- the pinky and ring finger, specifically. :/)

In other other news, next week is my last week at school! o.O!!! That is very scary. I don't think I'm ready.

So, a to do list!

School-related stuff:
- Buy boxes
- Pack up office stuff: 60%
- Store in mom's garage
- GRADE: essay revisions, final projects, misc stuff
- have lots of meetings. Pretend to be a competent adult. Commencement ceremony on Thursday, final year-end Lunch on Friday (they'll be doing a "farewell" speech for me. ::hides::)

Chinese School related stuff:
- Update Chunleiji file with all the misc emails I've gotten, send out final round of content collection emails.
- Finalize next school year's calendar and figure out rental contract
- Lots and lots of check processing -- especially finding checks that need to be refunded.
- Processing year end payroll. :/
- Write checks for payroll stuff
- Next Sunday = last day of school. That means being there for graduation ceremony and also the teacher dinner (::hides::)

Personal projects stuff:
- Mail the darn poster tube!
- Talk to Kaiser about switching to personal health insurance. :/
- Check teaching credential stuff
- Figure out the Tisquantum queue. (Ugh I have so much housekeeping to do re: Tisquantum it's so embarrassing and gross. I think I might skip an update again because the page after the next page needs some major tweaking, and I haven't done that yet.)
- Tweak pg 53, finish drawing pg 58, draw pg 59 and 60. (OMG after this scene there's like, 2 more scenes left and then I'll be done with this chapter, which is the end of Book 1. Which mean, if I'm going at my current pace, I'll be done by end of June. ::knock on wood::)
- Do some more comic analysis for the learningtocomic tumblr
- Figure out a way to make comic friends
