THE TWELVE DAYS OF DRAFTSMAS - DAY TWELVE - PROCRASTINATING MY PROCRASTINATION

CHRISTMAS EVE GONNA TAKE IT EASY AND DO A SIMPLE POST ON SOMETHING COOL THAT I HAVE TRIED AT LEAST TWICE TO COMPLETE IN THE PAST TO ABJECT FAILURE. THIRD TIME'S A CHARM I WRITE AT 1:51 AM FILLED WITH DREAD THAT I WILL KNOCK OFF TO GO TO BED BEFORE FINISHING AND NEVER WRITE ANOTHER WORD EVER AGAIN

2019, I MEAN, 2018 PROCRASTINATION POST - SKETCHY

AND NOW IT'S 2020. LATE 2020 AT THAT

AND THE POST IS A DAY LATE

ORIGINAL SAVE DATE 2/04/2020

I ACTUALLY WROTE THE NEXT PARAGRAPH MONTHS AGO AND INDENTED IT TO DIFFERENTIATE FROM CURRENT RAMBLINGS

HA HA IT'S 2020 AND I'M STILL CATCHING UP WITH POSTS FROM 2018. DON'T WORRY THO I HAVEN'T HAD A SINGLE DIME OF DISPOSABLE INCOME ALL YEAR AND YOU'VE ALREADY SEEN THE TWO TRAE YOUNG* CARDS I BOUGHT WITH THE LAST REMAINING CASH FROM 2019 SO YOU'RE NOT MISSING ANYTHING

WELL I AM STILL LACKING IN DISPOSABLE INCOME AND I GUESS I SHOWED OFF THE TWO TRAE YOUNG ROOKIES I GOT THE LAST TIME I WANT TO MY LOCAL CARD SHOP EVER. SO, UH, YEAH. NOTHING'S REALLY CHANGED SINCE FEBRUARY. OTHER THAN THE COMPLETE COLLAPSE OF AMERICAN SOCIETY BUT WHO CARES ABOUT THAT

TEYJYENFGD

SO THIS THING WAS ACQUIRED AT A LOCAL COMIC CONVENTION IN CARTERSVILLE IN THE FALL OF 2018. IT WAS THE FIRST REAL COMIC CONVENTION I HAD BEEN TO IN YEARS AND I HAD A BALL

I'M GOING TO SLEEP NOW, RIP THIS POST

OK AWAKE AGAIN. I MIGHT ACTUALLY FINISH THIS THING AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. HERE IS A SKETCH CARD. THIS CARD WAS BOUGHT WITH MY SON'S DEBIT CARD BECAUSE I SPENT MY LAST FIVE BUCKS ON SOME DOLLAR COMICS AND THIS CAUGHT MY EYE AS I WAS WALKING OUT THE DOOR


SO WHO THE HELL IS HENRY SWANSON. HE'S FROM AN 80S ACTION FLICK. HE'S PLAYED BY KURT RUSSELL. HE'S NOT THE MAIN CHARACTER, HE'S THE MAIN CHARACTER IN DISGUISE. FIGURED IT OUT YET? IT'S JACK BURTON FROM BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA ACTING LIKE A SLEAZY BUSINESSMAN WHEN HE TRIES TO RESCUE THE GREEN-EYED LADY FROM THE BROTHEL. WHY THE HELL WOULD I FLIP OUT ABOUT A SKETCH CARD ABOUT THAT. BECAUSE IT'S HILARIOUS AND AWESOME, THAT'S WHY

I FOUND A YOUTUBE VIDEO OF THE SCENE IN QUESTION BUT EMBEDDING VIDEO HAS GONE ALL WEIRD SINCE THE UPDATE AND THE SCENE MAY BE PURGED FROM THE INTERWEBS FOR ALL I KNOW. I CAN'T TEST THE VIDEO UNTIL I PUBLISH IT TO SEE IF IT STILL WORKS. IF IT DOESN'T JUST GO WATCH BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA, IT'S WORTH IT



I GRABBED A BUSINESS CARD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CARD BECAUSE I AM TERRIBLE WITH NAMES UNLESS YOU PLAY SPORTS OR STARRED IN AN OLD MONSTER MOVIE. THE ARTIST IS LOCAL WHICH IS REALLY COOL, BUT WE'RE ALL TRAPPED IN OUR HOUSES NOW WHICH IS BAD


THE YEAR AFTER I GOT HENRY I WENT BACK TO THE SAME SHOW AND PICKED UP ANOTHER SKETCHY CARD THAT MAKES ME HAPPY


THIS NEAT INK SKETCH OF DRAX THE DESTROYER FROM GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY IS A GOOD PAIR FOR OL HENRY. IMAGINE THE SHENANIGANS THEY COULD GET UP TO IN A BUDDY COP MOVIE. I AM NOT A BIG WRESTLING GUY BUT I LOVED DAVE BAUTISTA IN SPECTRE AND SINCE THEN I'VE PICKED UP A COUPLE OF HIS WWE CARDS AND IT WAS FUN TO FIND A SKETCH CARD OF HIM OUT OF THE BLUE LIKE THIS. I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING TO THE COMIC SHOW AGAIN THIS YEAR AND MAYBE PICKING UP A THIRD SKETCH CARD BUT THEN THE WORLD ENDED AND WE MIGHT STILL ALL END UP DEAD BY NEXT SEPTEMBER. I'M STILL HAPPY TO HAVE TWO SKETCH CARDS EVEN IF A THIRD ISN'T IN THE CARDS. YEEZUS, MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE ENDED THE LAST POST ON A POSITIVE NOT INSTEAD OF A TERRIBLE PUN.  

NAH

WE'RE ALL DOOMED, THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING, THE VIRUS IS OUT OF CONTROL, OUR GOVERNMENT HAS COMPLETELY ABANDONED US AFTER LOOTING THE TREASURY, SOCIETY IS ABOUT TO COLLAPSE AND THE FALCONS ARE GOING TO FUCK UP THEIR DRAFT PICK I JUST KNOW IT

HOLLY YOUR JOLLIES MOTHERFUCKERS WHILE YOU CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

YTSDJS67YUSTHW

IS THIS THE GINTER CODE

*ALL-STAR STARTER TRAE YOUNG. WHO'S ALSO IN THE RISING STARS GAME AND THE THREE POINT CONTEST

LOOKIT ME WITH MY FOOTNOTES GIMMICK. I HAVE PURCHASED ONE ADDITIONAL TRAE YOUNG CARD SINCE THEN, I HOPE I CAN BUY ANOTHER SOON


THAT'S IT! I'M DONE! NOW I CAN KICK BACK AND RELAX AND UH GO TO WORK TOMORROWDAY BECAUSE IT'S STILL 2020. ENJOY YOUR MERRIES HOWEVER THEY ARE

Always enjoy seeing sketch cards in posts. And thanks for reminding me that I can always go back and finish posts I started years ago.
