2011 Eisner Nominations… No big deal.

The 2011 Eisner nominations are out… This is no big deal. I can take it or leave it. I mean, it’s only the comic book industry’s biggest award, and Will Eisner is only one of my favorite artists EVER, and I DID take Eisner’s class at SVA, but it’s not like I care or any–

What’s that?

Hereville made the nom list, you say?

Oh.

Well.

No biggie.

Er, pardon me just a moment.

As I was saying, nothing to get excited about.

    You might like this. My 5-year-old was working on something at the table this morning, and he held his pencil on his nose so it was sticking straight out and said, “I have a long nose like … (and, of course, I’m waiting for him to say Pinocchio) … Mirka’s mom!”

    What everyone else has said. Except that I have no pencil-nosed 5-year old. But all the rest of it.

    Considering it… But I’m not sure yet. It’s an expensive trip, alas.
