Been a long time

Lots has changed since I last updated this blog. I'll wait till January's Bread & Circus is over to update this.

Updates

Ok, well I just got back from Italy and boy are my arms tired! No? Fine.

I started a new ad campaign for iHelp Austin, a series of drawings revolving around the idea that "You might need iHelp if..." Fine, it's a little Jeff Foxworthy-ish, but it's interesting and combines my love of crappy drawings and mocking idiots.

I finally bought a domain for my personal blog with Britt. We were running a mobileme iWeb site but now we have an official name: www.rothyourfaceoff.com. If you wanna see trip photos, or know WHY I'm writing this from a hotel room around the corner from my house (don't get your hopes up, it has nothing to do with swinging or prostitution), check it out.

Lastly, after the decline of Austin Enchilada, all of my kvetching about food had no where to go. Then I started AteTX.com. It's a comedy blog with food reviews only. What I mean is, if you're looking for someone to avidly explain "how the saffron in the soup delicately plays on the tongue, while the liver chunks fill the rest of your mouth in a quaff of organy-gaminess," look somewhere else. If you wanna know how a drink, "was like having a sugar-glazed ham jump-kick you in the liver then throw ginger ale in your face to cool you off," then you have come to the right place.

I have also gotten into being a "aquahobbyist." That means fish nerd. I have a 29 gallon freshwater tank and an 8 gallon nano reef saltwater tank. Maybe I'll post another entry about it. I should really update this more often.

THE INCREASINGLY POOR DECISIONS OF TODD MARGARET

To get you into the Holiday season, here's a shout out to all those idiots you see out there. Whether it's in the parking lot or if you work in a retail store. I'm sorry and just know things will slow down in 2-3 weeks.

Updates

As you know, my animation contract ended in June. Two weeks later I found myself working at Precision Camera as a photoshop artist. Shortly after that I became a food critic for austinenchilada.com. Shortly after that Rick and Meryl talked me into putting my apple help on craigslist. Shortly after that I signed up to help Primizie cater their weddings and corporate events, after meeting Patrick, the catering director, on a wine tour with Britt and the Clink girls.

I was fucking busy.

But my apple help started to pick up, and the guy in charge of austinenchilada.com flaked, and the work environment at Precision was less than conducive to a normal work place, if not down right disastrous. So I put in my two weeks with Precision and they fired me because "I was trying to screw them," but that's what the two week notice was for AND I was still in my 90 trial period.

So I went to Alaska with Britt's family and when I came back I hit the ground running on iHelp Austin.

I ordered business cards, came up with a logo, made a website in iWeb, redesigned the business cards and ordered a new batch, printed and hung fliers at local businesses and I have just paid for ad space in a neighborhood newspaper that hit 71,000 readers a month and the Jewish Outlook.
