Just keep on truckin'
Jul. 23rd, 2014 09:26 amOkay, so I think I need to figure out a system where on certain days I do a lot of work-related errands (ugh), which can then free up other days to do work-related curriculum design (yay) and work-related coding (kind of yay).
Mondays I usually don't feel like doing errands ... it's the start of the week and errands feel so ... trivial.
Maybe Wed or Thurs should be errand day. Let's say Wed is "interact with folks" errand time and "super groady" errand time.
Tuesday the morning is taken up with generally intense meeting, and after that I need some time to recover, but I don't want to people then, either. So maybe Tues afternoon is "calm futzing with computer" errand time.
Let's make Monday afternoons coding, and Thursdays curriculum. Then Friday can be miscellaneous, whatever still needs to be done.
So:
Monday- coding
Tues- meeting + internet futzing errands
Wed- harder errands
Thurs- curriculum
Fri- misc
::nod:: Let's try this.
Errands for today:
-Deal with T-mobile
- Various website fixes: etaiko,mom's personal, hcc shipping info, scs calendar
-SCS Insurance policy stuff
-remember to queue the next Tisquantum page
-Car stuff?
-Credential stuff?
- More checks/accounting?
In other news:
I just had to re-layout 2 of my tisquantum pages (after inking half of it), so .... victory there? We shall see. Internal struggle is hard when there's no internal monologue. (Good thing there's internal mental images). Also, too much struggle at once feels weird. (Basically I had to condense/trim 2 pages down to 1).
I did draw 2.5 pages of Tisquantum in the last 2.5 days, though, so I'm making progress there again. Finding a new trash series to watch while I draw has really helped. (Young Justice -- just hit the Season 2 time skip, and I'm like, "who the fuck is everyone? What's with all these b-rated characters?")
Also I've been drawing color palette challenges on tumblr and it's been a great way for me to work on my illustration skills. (I see illo skills as about rendering and focusing on showing an effective story/relationship in a single image. In contrast, comicking is about drawing efficiently and telling the story as you move through a series of panels and pages.)
