Sometimes It Takes Two Takes.
Got mostly through the monster Accounting work today-- and it looks like I might eke out a passing grade... which would be great... if all I wanted to do was pass.
But I'm taking this course for a reason. I need to master its principles, now and for the next forty years. Just eking out a passing grade here won't be enough, not when I want to make the most of the education and move on to Management Accounting. So I've elected to re-take it as an online class, which is probably how I should have taken it the first time.
Even though this was a costly choice, I felt really good after making it and telling the professor at the end of class. It felt great to take control over my life like that. I felt like such an adult! Then one of the other students leaned over on his way out and whispered, "Your sweater's on backwards."
Here's hoping it'll be as productive a choice as my last costly make-up at Megacon.
Looking hard at another comics-related job. This one is much better suited to my qualifications than the last one I mentioned, with lots more opportunity. Here's hoping they'll want me.
Oh, and a bit of news... the Sluggy guest story artist is confirmed as Hyung Sun Kim. It was really close-- some absolutely GREAT cartoonists went into consideration-- but Hyung's awesome seriocomedy and layouts on Kill Harry finally won me over. Congrats, Hyung!

Now that's a great choice. I listed H-S on an LJ discussion thread I was participating in started by The Gneech in which he asked for recommendations of the best artists in webcomics. BTW, I've heard my first episode of your comics podcast....interesting and informed.
