So yeah, it's been awhile since I've actually updated, but after a long period of doing absolutely nothing and a "Livejournal" phase that I like to call my "Depressed-Emo-Bandwagon-Blue Period," I've regained my creativity, humor, and motivation.
And since I began to grow incredibly tired at the layout I've had for almost three fucking years, I've decided to change the main page's look. Just the main page, though; I'm not that motivated.
I wanted to give Bluegoomba a summer feel, and because I had to read Jeffrey Eugenides' The Virgin Suicides for my film class, I gave the site a little 70's look: lots of pastels, so much so that I should be fucking arrested and beaten like a minority -- which, in retrospect, I probably would be since I am a minority. Anyway, I even used a lot of images from The Virgin Suicides movie. Kirsten Dunst, despite being a media darling now, is hot.
So what direction is Bluegoomba heading towards? Well, I'm through posting on Livejournal, which was originally intended to be an emotional outlet for a depressed fuck like me. Therefore, if I'm having a bad day (like if I lost an eye in a poker game or my mom gets lynched by Swedish people), you'll be sure to hear me bitching on this site.
Furthermore, the bastard people at the Daily Illini have decided not to post the summer comics on their site. I can't blame them. If they certainly don't want to fucking pay any of their writers or illustrators over the summer, why not add salt to the wounds by not properly maintaining their goddamned site (Tim, get to business). So, in response, I'm probably going to post my comics here, too.
All in all, BLUEGOOMBA IS GONNA BE A-RAWKIN' OVER THE SUMMER! BEER AND SEX FOR EVERYONE!
Okay, I'm done. And if you still visited this site during my frequent hiatuses, hoping and praying to God that I'd update, my sincerest apologies and appreciation. You people deserve something awesome, like a pony or a chocolate-giving robot of some sort...
