Part A (2012.06.25)

In this, as in most other respects, Teisni and I must disagree. I am not a dabbler. I am interested in many, many things. But art always wins; there is no time for dabbling. However, we both do excel at unintentionally offending our friends with flippant remarks.

And a reminder to go look at the photography set on Hypnogogic Hallucinations which I helped create:

Part B (2012.07.02)

If this appears an alarming and dangerous thing to spring on a friend without warning: yeah, my bad. I have serious issues identifying appropriate behavior in public. But Madison and Teisni are chums, so I think Teis can get away with this one.

I have been hugely distracted by my one minor day in SDCC this week. Printing some Rotsterarsil posters and bookmarks and getting everything I want into my two portfolios (letter and ledger size). But I am pretty excited: I can pack it all in a carry-on and still fill my 4' table space with pretty arts. I just hope no one carries off my comics thinking they are free (apparently a problem at SDCC). Should I tie them to the table, ha?

And I got a CA temporary seller's permit (yay for the new online application!), so I *think* I can sell stuff. From what I've heard, no one will be there on Thursday (which is something of a relief: crowds=scary), but if you are and do come by, I may have a comic you can buy and get signed with sparkly pens. ^^

Somehow... I don't think I'd be particularly upset if a woman did that to me. ;P

Am I going to have to start drawing scantily-clad pinup poses of Teisni for the guys here on dA now? ;)

Well, I can't say that I'd complain... <_< >_>

Please tell me that the overwhelming sexual tension in that play-fight is intentional. Because otherwise, it means I'm one of those creepy guys that just can't look at a pic one chick in spandex straddled over another chick in spandex and see the pure innocence in the gesture.

Pervert. :P

Albeit I saw the same thing in that scene (it's unintentional, btw). Maybe we are hard-wired to see that stuff. Like how every conversation can be misheard as a sexual reference if you come in at the wrong moment.

Unintentional my sweet patootie!

Voted! And in my experience, friends 'play fight' all the time, though maybe a little less so for girls, but hey, these are athletes, and so probably more likely to engage in physical play. I had a recent experience at one of my studio Open House events where I was kidding around with some people I know well and a couple of people I'd just met. One of the models I'd just met made a joke and then made a playful striking gesture. I had her arm in my grip and had her nearly in an armlock before my brain caught up and realized, wait... there is no need to be doing this - context-inappropriate behavior! It was nice to know my martial arts training is sinking in, but a tiny bit daunting, as well! Anyway, I can certainly relate to this scene in all regards, including the good humor of it.

What's the point in knowing fun cool tricks if you don't use them? Me, I like brain games. All those ways our fleshy systems fail us and we don't notice... :P

Agreed, on both points. Using is good, abusing isn't, and it's usually pretty easy to figure out what falls under the former vs the latter. :D
