Ohhh, I’m tired…
The last two days have been spent at Wicked Faire. I had an amazing amazing time. I got to meet friends that I’ve been talking to online for quite awhile, so a huge mega hello to Brenna & Jamie, Josh, Misty, and Georgie. I will even admit, the appearance of Chris was a request from this past weekend of, ‘Where is he.. he never appears enough’. So there you go! Chris’s triumphant reappearance.
I had a fantastic time. I will give the best summation I can without trying to sound too excited about the silliness that has transpired and the new website that was born from it. (Yes, a new website.. I’ll get to that in a minute)
I’ve done a few of these Wicked Faires before, and they aren’t your standard comic convention. They are a mix of cultures, subcultures, horror fans, rennfest types, and alternative lifestyles. One wouldn’t expect a webcomic would be the right thing there, but everyone is really accepting of all sorts of stuff. So there we were in the midsts of it all and I wasn’t expecting much due to some problems the show was having with the hotel. What the show turned out to be was one of the greatest times I’ve had at any of the Wicked events.
I made lots of sales of all the IHL swag, and made a bunch of new fans. Add to that, as we tend to, we threw some fantastic parties. That’s where things get very silly. You see, I don’t know how it started… I probably said something stupid. Either way, a friend of IHL’s was sitting in our party room wearing nothing but her skivvies. I had a sharpie and somehow ended up drawing on her butt. Whenever I doodle on someone (it happens sometimes), I tend to draw the Devil. One cheek got the Devil, the other got a God with a halo with INHISLIKENESS.COM on her stamp tramp area.
So now we have a walking nekkie billboard advertising IHL all night. Slowly but surely, other girls came to me and wondered how they could advertise….
This continued on for two days. Two days of me drawing on adorable girls. You people see what I do on a regular basis, right? Who knew it was the gateway to having fantastic people reveal their bodies to me with the intent for me to draw circles on them? I didn’t know either. Now, it would be wrong for me to talk about this without having something to show for it. If I was to just brag about all the ass I, quite literally, tagged this weekend… well, that would be mean. I was smart. I took photos with each girl’s permission.
So come Wednesday, a new IHL related blog will be born with a URL so it’s not clogging up the comic specifically, plus I’m sure not everyone wants to see pictures of girls bare flesh everywhere. I mean.. it’s not like you are on the internet or anything.
Be here Wednesday for the reveal of the website address (I have to install the software first.. so there you go) 😉
Keep safe,
Jamie
Yeah, man. That party was crazy. I think I caught something from somebody at it, though, or maybe I just stayed up too late and trashed my immune system. I wish I got more contact info from those girls, though…
Girl bum should be your standard panels. Soylent IHL is PEOPLE!
MAn I hought I was doing great with the naked IHL goodness, and then you go and pull that.
I bow to you for you ttruly are the mater.
OH. MY. GOD-COSPLAYER!!!! YOU SERIOUSLY BROUGHT CHRIS BACK FOR ME?! ~squeals like an insane fangirl~ You have my undying love forever Jamie. :3
And you totally should have seen my parents reaction to my… canvas body. XD They went to lift my shirt up only a bit and then realized it was my entire back that was covered. I told them someone famous did it to me and that it was okay. They’re worried that I won’t shower now, and honestly, so am I. 😛
I had so much fun, and I added you on LJ. koriganu <3
AND HERE’S SOME MORE LOVE FOR FEATURING CHRIS!! <33333333333
And forgive the spelling, it be cold in here.
Good times… good times… And I forgive the misspelling of my name because my name is so strange. Hehe.
And I have some pictures of your artwork, both on myself and on others, too! My favorite picture is probably of you doing my Lucy because of the perspective – Wes took it over my head, so it looks neat.
So I thought I’d share!

Thanks for making my weekend absolutely (and surprisingly) great!

Awesome meeting you too. Hopefully I will make the trek to Pittsburgh in March and see you there. 🙂
btw, I have an adorable photo of you in my LJ scrapbook.
Oh… and by the way, Danielle just made the big reveal… XD
It was great meeting you, Jamie. Thanks again for not doing forums, but simply having chatrooms and comments on your blog.. it really does make it much easier to talk to people. Wish I could have made it to your party, but some other… umm… business ;)… called to me 😀
Also, great ass-drawings!! I got to do fun things to one woman who had a big devil and IHL on her ass… made me giggle as I was doing it
Hope to see you at more events
Joshua who doesnt like endless amounts of forums (hopefully that helps you remember who I am)
Alright so I wasn’t there but I totally dig this strip. Hilarious. Did you have to look up all those buddy words?
Jealous. Why don’t you come to Staple and then I can be cool and hang out with you, too?
Jamie, it was great hangin with you again this weekend. Hopefully next time I’ll be able to make it out to more events to say hi. i must say… and by the way, how did we start singing Queen? that i don’t seem to remember…
Rachel–we started singing queen because…I think it was Girl-Haired Boy’s fault.
Does anybody remember how the catfight started?
I included my MySpace because some of the people I met at the party are commenting here.
ya man that was a crazy ill be sure 2 be on 2morrow 2 check out the new website
fuck i shouldn’t drink so much so early… can’t even type right
random comment here, but I just noticed your link to a comic called SPQR blues. History’s been my lifelong passion and I’m going to be majoring in it – so thanks for bringing to my attention a comic I’m sure I’ll thoroughly enjoy!
Though not as much as I enjoy IHL 😉
I am not sure how these things always happen. Or how I become the chaos leader. Or how I get people to take off their clothes. Or how to get sharpie off my butt. I guess these things just happen. I know your glad they do! Keep the faith and keep drawing dots.
No mention of the honor of seeing me? 🙁
I’m devastated! Simply devastated!
OK… I feel better now!
*hugs*
Hahaha, he as a zombie, makes sense…
That… was where it all started…
;P
