Hi! My name is K.D., although most online know me as misachan83. I'm 32, and am an author and anime lover. Welcome to the shadows of my creative and sometimes odd mind

A quick post :)

For your cuteness viewing pleasure

Hello again everyone! I hope everybody had a nice fourth of July. Ours was okay, although it was rained out and our fireworks have been moved to tonight. We saw some on TV though, so that's okay. Guess we'll get a double dose (haha).

So we've just begun a heat wave here, and I can't say that I like it that much. When you have two kids, cabin fever is a given with this stuff *sighs*. It's been a bit better for me though, considering I've been going through a pretty bad depressive spell lately. Hopefully this means that I'm finally trying to come out of it. It really sucks on so many levels to go through that stuff.

In other news, I've finally been able to start looking at some new anime series. Well, new for me in that I haven't seen them yet. I'm currently in the middle of the first season of Free!, and I have to say that I really like it more than I thought I would. I'm usually not one for a sport oriented anime, but the characters and backstory have really drawn me in, and I can't wait to start watching season 2. I'm gonna try to check out Gurren Lagann soon too (if I can find the episodes online, cause sometimes that's a challenge with some anime for some odd reason). Any other suggestions for my 'to watch' list? I'd love to hear some

Anyway, like I said, I hope everyone had a nice holiday. I also am excited to see the entries so far for my new challenge, although I'm really hoping to see more wallpaper challenges pop back up. It's more fun when you have things like that to do around here.

In Other News

I just like this picture :)

So my first challenge came to a close, and I wanted to personally thank everyone who entered. I really loved all of the entries, and it was hard to pick the winners in the end. Congrats to Snowzi, Judai Winchester, and Kyrachan for being my winners! I hope you all liked your prizes!

Keeping along those lines, I went ahead and put up my second wallpaper challenge that I'd been thinking about for a while too (considering there were absolutely no new challenges in wallpapers for quite a while). Hopefully a lot of you will be interested in participating in this one too. I tried to think of something that everyone could do (although picking winners will probably be just as hard in this one too )

As for life, well, summertime does give me some busy days. Most of my stuff I end up making at night, although I work on and off of the computer throughout the day. I want to find time to sit and draw, but with two kids running around right now, it's been difficult. Hopefully I'll get some new stuff done soon.

In other news, my husband was nice enough to get me Black Butler Book of Circus and the limited edition of Seraph of the End. I had only seen half of Book of Circus (though I read the manga portion of Kuroshitsuji), so that was a treat to be able to finish it and watch whenever I want. The Seraph of the End limited edition is pretty cool too. The box glows in the dark, and there's a box featuring Mika and Yu where you can put season 2 when it's released on DVD/BluRay. I also love the extras, especially Seraph of the Endless. They are hilarious, and I highly recommend checking them out (animefreak.tv has them where you can watch online).

Well I guess that's all for now. Hope everyone's having a good start to summer!
