Lonely Thursday
Pic: a Luna Wolf space marine. We’re doing an enormous army of these. It’s a great color scheme.

Today was surreal. I got up at 1:30am, spark awake, and stayed up until about 3:00am. This can’t be healthy. My seven year old son didn’t have any clean school clothes. But we found some at last. He’s got a lot of book smarts, but not a lot of common sense. He’s got good intuition when it comes to math– he logics things out neatly. Like his dad.
.
I got to spend some time with him, though, driving him to school. I like to spend time with my kids.
.
I was alone at the studio most of today. Thursdays are a sort of Bermuda Triangle. Not many people. I’ve got a new guy back in assembly helping out for this week. He plays Magic, so we started a four-way tournament just for kicks.
.
I got a lot done, though. When people are around I lag because I want to shoot the bull and chat everyone up as they pass by. No one escapes the “cheerful greeting”.
.
Baby is healthy and pink and making cute baby noises, approximating speech in a way. She is starting to track us with her eyes. She’s happy and calm. I can’t imagine what it’s like to take a newborn to daycare. Is there even such a thing? I’d live in a one-bedroom apartment with all six of us before making Tamie go work while the kids are institutionalized. Har. Well, I guess the older kids go to school!
.
Some stuff for my Eldar came in. And Vypers are en route. It’s going to be fun. I’m still mulling all sorts of color schemes.
.
I am still booking projects for February. There are still two slots open. Two sweet slots!
.
What else?

The weather warmed up today. It melted about half of the massive sheets of ice that form a stubborn lattice over the entire city.
