Welcome, friends! This is basically my life update world, where I pour all the crap going on in my life at the moment. I don't expect people to give this place much attention, to be honest. Well, make yourself at home, anyway!

Some Happy Stuff c:

Well, most of the time I post sad/negative stuff on here, so here's some happy stuff! It snowed/sleeted/hailed yesterday - and I mean like non-stop. It was banaynays. But, today, my nephew got to play in it before he went home!

There he is c: He's two!
Isn't he adorable? His name is Kaden c:

Also, I downloaded this free art program called FireAlpaca, and it's amazing! It's perfect for me, who uses a mouse, because I can hold shift, and click to make straight lines ;w; and if you do ctrl + alt and drag your mouse pointer, it changes the brush size! The canvas is a bit small, but I'm okay with that.
You can get it here, and I recommend you do! I have't drawn anything with it yet, because I'm still in the "messing around and getting acquainted" stages, but I'll certainly post what I do draw!
That's about it for now. c:

Art Obstacle and Life update

Well, lets start with the life update, since it won't take a lot of time to type out. As you know, it's nearly Christmas, so Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it! Personally, I've been worried about people getting me pricey things as gifts ^^; I know it's "The Season of Giving" or whatever, but I still end up feeling bad. Anyway, my sister may be coming over on Christmas day! I really hope she can make it! I miss her! Lets see... What else to share... I've been feeling a bit strange recently. Kind of... absent-minded? Scatter brained? Something to that effect. I've been forgetting things quite easily recently. Not that I had a very good memory before.

Anyhoo, now onto the next topic. I've got a bit of a problem. It's not a MAJOR problem, but it is quite puzzling... Last year, I'd gotten a Android Tablet for Christmas, and I took extra special care of it. Like, I never brought it with me anywhere, I was so scared I'd break it. I was using it as a camera to transfer my pencil drawings onto my computer, because I don't have a scanner. Now, you see, true to my past with technology, it broke in a freak accident. (By freak accident, I mean, it flopped off of the couch, onto the soft carpeted floor, and the the inside of the screen cracked. Don't ask me what how it happened, because I don't get it either.) I was left without anyway to get my pencil drawings on to the computer, so I've been unable to upload my drawings to here or DeviantART. I tried to use my webcam as a stand in, but it's so hopelessly blurry, it's practically useless. So, you see, that is my problem. I've run out of ideas. I don't actually know why I've decided to tell you guys about this, but there's a little insight into my inactivity.

An Artist's Revival (kind of)

I've started using my webcam as a form of getting my drawings on the computer. It's not the BEST way to go about it, seeing as they come out blurry as heck and are hard to digitally line-art because of it, but it's something. Currently working on a birthday present for a friend of mine. It's making slow progress, but I still have plenty of time.
Here's a WIP of the birthday project:

An Artist's Melancholy

GAH I MISS MY CAMERA SO MUCH!! It was my only means of getting my drawings on the computer, so I could color them! It broke a while ago, and now, I've not been able to post any new art! I miss doing my art work ;A; but, it'd cost so much to replace the camera I was using! I got it as a gift, and I cherished it... BUT, ALAS! MY TODDLER NEPHEW GOT A HOLD OF IT! I really want my camera back ;A;
