Weekend of indulgence ends with robot/cobra retirement

This weekend I ate so much I’m pretty sure I eliminated any progress that may have been made during our trips to the Y last week. Friday night, Holly and I went out for Sushi, then I went and picked up Jon from the GO train. We came back here and played the God of War 3 demo, then some zombies, and finally some Bioshock2. Then Jon made me eat pizza.

The next morning Holly made us brownies, and muffins, and shared some of her raspberry macaroons with us. Most of the afternoon was spent playing Bioshock2 and some UFC Undisputed, then we decided to go for Indian buffet. I ate so many pakoras, and homemade cheese it was unreal. Then right after that, we drove all the way to St Catharines for Marble Slab. Later that night, Jon and I busted out the leftover muffins and brownies and did even more damage to our guts.

The next morning I woke up with a major tummy ache, dying to smoke some pot. We rolled up a huge blunt using some enormous cigars the Dude gave me, and I tried to harvest Adam from dead splicers while we smoked it. I nibbled all day at the leftovers from the previous days, and then when the boys came home we decided to go to the Mandarin. I ate a shit load of sushi rolls, some pizza, spring rolls, some rice, and lots of garlic broccoli! Then I topped it all off with a gigantic plate of dessert, which consisted of: cheesecake (covered in strawberry sauce), a waffle covered in bananas and strawberries, a sugar puff, and of course a fortune cookie.

Today I plan to eat nothing until after we go to the Y. Instead, I plan to hang out with the Roanster all day since he’s off for March break, maybe finish Bioshock2 (since it’s now two days late!!), and possibly model some more of James’ house – although I’m still waiting to hear back from him about what I’ve done so far.

Above is a rendering I did of one of my robots, using no light source other than what he emits. It looks pretty cool in my opinion, and it inspired me to try the same thing with some other robots.

I like the look of these. I think I will turn them into desktop / PS3 backgrounds. I also think I will stop modeling robots now. I love doing it, but there is no point. It’s all wasted time, and I gain nothing from it. I really enjoy having a creative outlet, but work is more important and I’m the only one who thinks any of these images are cool.

I might post one or two more robots here that I have already made – just haven’t posted, but that will be it for Robots, and the whole Angry Art portion of this blog.

It’s come to my attention recently that I waste too much time on things that don’t matter, and I agree. The Sketchup stuff, my bad habits, video games, and this blog all take away from time I could be working. I love all these things, but none of them help me get anywhere, so it’s time to start eliminating them. First the art – that’s going to be easy, then the blog. The two big ones I’ll deal with last.
