April 10, 3011: Everyone here looks at me funny and asks, "You from?" And I say "Earth", and they're really confused. One guy did follow with "You look Venusian." :p

On my way

April 8, 3011: Just boarded the Macapá Skyhook. Ride's full, so they forced me to digitize my carry-on. I hope they don't have trouble rematerializing it when I get to Mercury. :(
Update: Now the ride's delayed because of some sort of Van Allen storm. Really hope I don't miss my connection...

Mercury!

April 1, 3011: I'm going on my first ever business trip!  I'll be dropping by a coworker's wedding in Caloris and then visiting SomniCorp's Mercury offices in Tolstoj and Beethoven.

I just spent all night trying to plan my days in the Caloris area.  Right now I'm thinking of flying into KertĂ©sz first.  I have to drop by Apollodorus of course to see the Taj Gumbad, and then I'll make my way to Caloris City to attend an authentic Mercurian wedding! :D Trip planning is so stressful!  I finally have my train and shuttle tickets booked, but I still have to find hotels...

It's taking me a while to draw my second comic.  I'll try to get it out before my trip, but I also hope to draw some during my trip itself.  It should be fun!  .... Though I'm not sure I'm looking forward to that 300°C+ heat... =o

More long term planning

Feb 23, 3011: So I program people's dreams all day, but I seem to have left my own behind. I'm going to try doing some retro textual blogging here, through this portal I found to the primordial Internet.  Maybe even draw some "webcomix".  Dreams are nothing without reality to back it up.  (The above statements are mine and do not necessarily represent the opinions of my employer, SomniCorp.)

Long term planning

Feb 23, 3011: First Titan, then Enceladus. Looks like revolution might be spreading to the Jovian moons soon.  The Consortium's been so slow to react!  The status quo of supporting dictators in the Outer Planets isn't going to last. We need to figure out how not to be afraid of democracy and actually befriend the people of the gas giant worlds.  It doesn't have to be so us vs. them.

Also, I can't believe it's been almost 10 years, and we've still barely started to rebuild the Moon. :\
