I heart werewolves! It’s true! Wouldn’t Werewolf Day be better than Crappy Snow Crap Ice Crappers Day (so sick of snow and it is only the first week of December – weep). We could wear plastic fangs and jump around. No monkey jumping though, we’re wolves. Werewolves will be the new pirate, or whatever the hell thing we’re on anyway (ninja? robot? penguin?).
I’ve been working on a big project at night, and some of these images take a long while to process. To counter staring at the screen, I have been reading my copy of Essential Werewolf by Nightpretty much non-stop as I sit and wait for my little G4 to chug out hi-res jpegs from Illustrator files. I used to do this back in high school when the design gang would wait 8 hours on Photoshop 2.0 to render a lens flare filter. We’d read comics in the newspaper lab, listening to those Mac LC’s chugging away.
I’m so glad you added the caveat about the monkey jumping. There is NOTHING I hate more than when I see someone monkey jumping while trying to be a werewolf!
Ever hear Michael Chabon’s “werewolf” story from Werewolves In Their Youth? It’s great, and you can listen to it here in the backgound whilst you’re working(The rest of the episode of TAL is great too, espicially the Tooth Fairy bit at the beginning. And if you enjoy that werewolf story, they’ve got another one you can check out, too.
BTW, since you’re reliving our terrific/horrendous high school design exploits, have you been downing slushies, Fat Freddies, and Funions as well? If so, maybe I could come over and share in the experience, if for nothing else but to be thankful to not HAVE to do it anymore.

Jesus, no. I’ve moved onto just beer.

You make it sound like a white slavery shop when all we had to do is take another class if we didn’t like it.
And I don’t think I want you around me if all you’ve been eating is Funions and Fat Freddie’s.

Well, I heart zombies, so you can heart werewolves all you want. They were always one of my favorites, too, and one of the ones you don’t get many movies about (thank god).
