'I never realised how empty my life was without blueberry milk!' by Kara

First off, if you haven't heard, Kevin Lillard (creator of A Fan's View) had a heart attack this past weekend. He is apparently still in hospital, but doing all right and just being monitored before they release him. Let's keep him and his family in our thoughts and prayers - he's one of those good guys that these things shouldn't happen to.

I think I've gotten into a good rhythm at work. Moving my desk helped, I think. Fixed up the feng shui or something. I think my desk is pointing west now, which may actually be bad. Not sure. Now all I need is a Garfield Chia Pet, and it'll be complete.

But between work and comics and drinking cleaning up the flat, I've fallen behind on one of my most important, beloved things. That's right.

Fansubs.

Got a big ol' pile of them here - stuff I've downloaded, and stuff I've been given by two of my co-writers. I'd watch them while I draw, but then I can't read the subtitles or ... well ... even look at it, really. Which kinda defeats the purpose. I usually watch something I'm familiar with backwards and forwards (the first two seasons of Coupling, lately), so I've got some background, but I'm not actually missing anything. I've considered taking a day off just to catch up on 'em, but I don't think that'd go over too well.

Hm. Fansubs or sleep. I'll bet my weird uncle is snickering right now.
