14:11 Restarted the @RockBand diet, today. Let Christmas help me fall off -- but I got a new drumset for it, so there goes my biggest excuse. #
19:30 @Drew_Blood Congratulations! #
12:05 @pseudopseudo So, two? #

14:37 Man, I'm feeling good today. #
15:44 So... close... to... new... Doctor... Who... Thank goodness, BBC America isn't making us wait too long this year. #
20:51 @itsmesarahrae I like the way your husband thinks. #
20:53 Spock glass filled with chocolate milk... you are my best friend. #
22:29 @pseudopseudo Woot. I love both of mine. Well, I love one and tolerate the other one. #
23:19 @Patrick_McEvoy Today I realized that the easiest way I'll be able to tell I have kids is when the presents for Jenna are wrapped well. #

13:30 @abrown4788 Ease out, don't quit cold turkey. Caffeine can have a pretty wicked comedown. #
02:42 @Templesmith I bought the printed version, but that's tempting since my copy was swallowed up by my unread pile that is 12 boxes long. #

23:10 @the_kerouac_cat Man, that Internet is such a bully. The Internet always picks on me. C'mon, Internet! Be nice! #
08:14 @the_kerouac_cat You can let the Internet know that I love cookies, and I accept it's apology. Also, the Internet's outfit looks nice. #

00:04 Want a sneak peek of this week's strip? www.youtube.com/watch?v=nErAFUuR6LU Watch me color it! #
00:46 @hell0jed File saving. I work at entirely too huge DPIs, because I'm a perfectionist. #
00:53 @hell0jed Yeah, I definitely work much higher than I need to. I just once thought I could see the aliasing in print at 300dpi one day. #
00:55 @hell0jed I also swear I can hear the compression on mp3s -- so I may just be *trying* to be difficult. #
01:00 @hell0jed And yet... it's still our format of choice. #
01:01 @hell0jed Though, if I had my way, I'd buy nothing but vinyl. Don't care if I hear the difference or not. I like the artwork at that size. #
01:07 @pablowapsi Really great work on the strip today, man. Looking forward to seeing how this storyline ends. #
12:18 I have totally fallen off my diet. I need to get back into it. #
12:24 @the_kerouac_cat Well, my diet is more about exercise than diet. Already a big fan of vegetables. Thanks, I'll need the luck to stick to it. #
12:45 @the_kerouac_cat indeed. Also, too bad I have a gut. #

15:37 Dear Watermelon Soda, I never thought I could love a soda this much. Not after Pineapple soda left me. Thank you for coming into my life. #
21:16 Apparently a friend of mine was in Best of the Best. Guess it's tine to rewatch. #
23:16 @SinaGrace Working at a movie theatre next door to my favorite restaurant, I got over both of those hang-ups. #

14:13 Dear Internet -- If you're gonna be distracting me from the work I need to be doing, could you at least be interesting today? #
15:09 @the_kerouac_cat Wow, the Internet is mean. *pouts* #
21:17 @philknall Manually, or does one have to go to apple to do that? #
21:22 @philknall Ha. Been wondering about that, I always get sad when the thing learns one of my typos. #

Ramping up to finally do a new Li'l Depressed Boy shirt next month. Here's the mock-up I did.

I'm very excited.

13:03 @Patrick_McEvoy And seriously, although that may have sounded like a form answer, I sincerely mean it. Thank you. #
13:10 @Patrick_McEvoy I work in a bubble, sometimes I only think about myself, Sina & my buddy Nicholas reading it. #
13:24 @Patrick_McEvoy Well, there is a very set storyline that's going to last for years -- so I think I'm covered. #
14:03 Fenoglio is trying to convince me that today's strip is a retcon. He's making me cry. Jerk. #
19:16 @McKelvie Aren't there too many Jim's in the comic industry already, anyway? And Steve's? It's hard to keep them all straight. #
19:17 And yes, I know I just used possessive when I shoulda used plural -- but I'm in a hurry. #
23:46 @jeffool You just sent me down the unproductive rabbit hole. Stop that. #
23:47 Computer catastrophe tonight. Working hard (when not distracted by things Jeff posts) to recover everything. I'm scared. #

16:52 @katemicucci Yay. That's the thing I was missing most in the new season -- Ted & the Gooch! #
18:52 Colouring tomorrow's strip, listening to Pinhead Gunpowder. Feeling good. #
20:33 @Patrick_McEvoy Yeah. It's a favorite of mine. #

14:28 @pseudopseudo so what you think? #
16:26 @pseudopseudo Well, glad you're enjoying them. Hopefully they were worth the incredibly long wait. #
22:04 Ahhhhh. Another slam has snuck up on me. Gotta prepare for Wednesday. #
22:10 @feliciaday I've never understood that. Makes more sense to put the money to what they're supposed to be helping. #
22:18 Fell off the @RockBand diet for the last few days trying to meet deadlines. Tried to get back into it today. It killed me. Lesson learned. #
22:25 Watching Back to the Future for the first time in 10 years... In my head, it always started in the parking lot. Lot's of surprises for me. #
22:41 @jeffool I remember bits and pieces, but in my head it always starts at the parking lot. So crazy. But fun to get to experience thigns anew. #
23:25 Catching background gags on Back to the Future. That's pretty awesome. #
01:03 @Patrick_McEvoy Oh man, that was great. #

13:48 Finally broke the headphones that Jenna bought me a few years ago. I'm surprised they lasted longer than a year. They were good ones, too. #
13:50 Whenver James Kochalka comes up in this cover of "Do They Know It's Christmas," I always end up giggling like a madman. #
13:59 And yes, I'm intentionally listening to Christmas music. But it's hipster Christmas music, so I must be doing it ironically. (Yeah right) #
14:12 @MURS Very cool, man. #
14:22 @ztrover Which ones? I've been concentrating on the Tarquin Records All Star Holiday Extravaganza & the new @asianmanrecords Christmas Card. #
15:15 @ztrover I think it was six bucks. Kepi Ghoulie, Andrew Jackson Jihad, MU330, Mike Park and a couple other bands. It's good stuff. #
15:22 @lucylou That both excites and disturbs me. #
17:24 @ztrover Mail order. #
17:24 @ztrover It comes with an actual christmas card designed by Kepi Ghoulie, that you can send to someone. #

14:08 @NOSTUDIO Wishing he was colouring! But the audio editing job is going good today. #
19:00 T-shirt design repost: Proposed Li'l Depressed Boy shirt. What do you guys think? twitpic.com/sxvr2 #
19:45 @kateatsmouse My budget is limited, so I'm planning on the unisex. But, I'll look into special order a few girl style for who wants it. #
19:46 @hell0jed Aiming for only 3 ink colours. That's why I took out the buildings from the original panel. #
19:52 @hell0jed Also, I think the flat background helps showcase the loneliness. #
19:53 @Templesmith Oh crap. Santa lost your present, thank goodness British Airways found it! #
19:58 Last time I ordered shirts (back in ought-one), I ordered my sizes wrong. Had XLs until earlier this year. Ran out of medium the first year. #
19:58 (Like a dunce, I didn't even order smalls) Gotta remember this lesson when I get around to ordering. #
20:19 Things that make me sad: Realizing that The Clash are being played on oldies stations. I'm an old man. #
20:20 Things that make me happy: Realizing that I'm suddenly looking forward to 30. #
20:31 @erikurdiales Yeah, but I've got an exciting year lined up next year. It's gonna be great. #
22:30 @kateatsmouse I'll still investigate girl-style. Easy enough to add a few in for custom orders before I'm ordering it, anyway. #

15:09 RT for TRUTH! @pseudopseudo Also: avocado on anything = win. #
15:11 @hell0jed Thanks. It'll look better when I have a chance to do the background. I gotta concentrate on other things. Dentist ate all my time. #
22:02 @pseudopseudo On it. #

13:07 @Patrick_McEvoy Thank you for passing on that information. Giiii. #
14:17 Things I do when I should be working: Cyber-stalking my man's @nicofopolous currently shooting film. Back to work, Struble. #
14:29 @ronsalas You aren't a dork... you're a HERO! #
14:32 @ronsalas Okay, now you're just turning into super awesome in my book. #
16:22 @RockBand Way to go, guys. #
23:12 @thejillthompson Is it just Facebook? Sometimes everything that isn't a first party app will crash on me. #
23:13 @thejillthompson Oddly, it seems to fix by me holding down on one of the icons until it's in the "move icon" mode, and then exiting that. #
23:15 @thejillthompson And yes, this makes no sense in my head... but I figured I'd suggest it because it's worked for me. #
03:30 Colours will come about sometime tomorrow. Got other work I need to concentrate before I go to bed. #
03:31 (and by tomorrow, I mean Wednesday -- it's still Tuesday in my head. Also, everything is made out of ribbon candy in there) #
11:04 Day 9, @RockBand diet: I've drummed somewhere over 220 songs in this week and a half. Wow. Some repeats. Mostly not, though. #

13:05 @Patrick_McEvoy And I'd just go to their website and watch it, but all I'm getting is the first half of the episode. Doesn't help. #
13:14 @Patrick_McEvoy *sigh* I don't know how to see it. Do the rerun the current week's episode before the next week's? *grumbles* #
13:29 @Patrick_McEvoy Not even showing an ad to me. Must be AdBlock -- never had a problem with it doing that on any other site. Odd. #
13:47 @Patrick_McEvoy Yeap. It was AdBlock. Great episode. Still wish Adult Swim would learn what clocks are for and stick to their schedule. #
20:34 @ztrover only cause you're there. #
08:25 @RockBandAide I've been using it for about a month, and it's been good to me so far. #
10:17 Day 8, @RockBand diet: And so starts week two. The random generated playlist is still not failing me, lot's of surprises. #
11:58 @RockBandAide *grombles* If only I didn't use a PS3 to play. #

11:51 Day 7, @RockBand diet: Game was mean, it waited until the moment I felt like I was gonna collapse, and then it played 5 fast songs in a row. #
12:44 Dear Adult Swim & any other TV Network, we live in the age of Tivo, don't start your shows 8 minutes late, we'll never see the end. #
12:52 Do you not have clocks at Cartoon Network? I would like to see the end of a Venture Brothers after having to wait 2 weeks for a new one. #

16:23 I really have a hard time waiting for the Kepi show. But while I wait, there will be gnocchi. Mmmmmmm. #
17:20 Nice to see that BBC America isn't making me wait so dang long between UK airing of Doctor Who and American broadcast. One day ain't bad. #
17:21 Is it sad that I'm cramming for the Kepi show? I always blank on the songs I want to hear when he asks for requests. SOOOOO MANY I LIKE. #
11:07 Day 6, @RockBand diet: My bass pedal is now a noodle, hardly held together by cardboard and duct-tape. Also, so are my arms. #
