I'm So Sick

Journal Entry: Mon Feb 11, 2008, 12:20 PM
  • Mood: Tired
  • Listening to: All my Hives songs on shuffle.
  • Reading: He is my Master (manga)
  • Watching: Star Trek: The Motion Picture
  • Playing: Guitar Hero 3
title from the song by Fadeleaf. mmmmm sexy goth chicks from texas...

So my last journal entry as in August of '07...yikes.

Basicly I just havn't been "feeling artsy" for the last half year or so. As such, this poor page got completely ignored. So before I continue:

To old watchers/friends: Thank you for sticking with me.
To new peeps: Thank you for all the favs, comments, and watches!

I came back to this page today, and there was just no way I was gonna sort through the hundreds of favs, comments, and watches in my inbox. So if you don't get a reply or thank-you, it's nothing personal I swear. I just wiped the whole in-box clean so I can start from zero, and hopefully keep up with them from here on out.

As far as new art:

Well like I said, I havn't really felt it for many months now. I dunno why, it just stopped being something I wanted to do. Despite that, drawing is too ingrained in my life to simply dissapear completely. I have a rather large stack of character sketches on top of my scanner, most of which are on the back of paper placemats from places I eat. With any luck I'll find some time to sort through and post a few of the better ones.

I do feel kinda like I'm coming out of this slump. I actually catch myself with the urge to draw again, so that's definitely a good sign. I've even got the beginnings of some possible full illustrations swimming around in my head. But we'll give those some time to stew and formulate into something more coheasive before I attempt to put them on paper.

So anyhow, no this is not the end, I just guess I needed a prolonged vacation from drawing projects. I'm sorry I didn't say so before dissapearing for 6 months.

As far as life:

Still at my shitty job. Though I love the work I do, I can't stand the job itself.

Still single. It's been just over 4 years now since that last big break-up, and I think I might be finally getting to the point where I'd actually like to find someone again. Though admittedly, I'm still very cautious about the whole idea.

Started going to church again, though I'm not sure why or if I'll stick with it.

Anyhow, I'm gonna get back to work now. Like I said, hopefully I'll get a few of those sketches posted soonish, and in the meantime start working on some larger projects that I'll actually color/etc.

Thanks again to everyone who's given their love and support!

I love what you did with the Enterprise model! It makes me dream of one day being able to understand the first damn thing about PSP and other programs like it...
