So, a few ramblings. First of all, Angry Cat has become noticeably angrier recently. He regularly takes out his frustrations on my poor arms, which have been effectively slashed to ribbons to the point where I have permanent scars. Seriously, I probably look like I've been trying to cut myself and failing or something.

I've also been having a rapid-firing series of self-revelations recently. Like, for example, I used to think that all of the little mental 'quirks' I have to deal with made me defective, or broken, but lately, through the support of a few close friends and a lot of self-reflection, it finally hit me that they don't. I finally figured out I don't have to stress so hard about trying to 'fix' myself. I mean, that really only seems to make the problem worse, and I realize now that it's not wrong to confide in my friends or rely on them for support, because it works both ways. And even just looking at a few people I know...they have to deal with things that are probably so much more serious, and they're really great people, maybe even more so than if they didn't (on a personal level, as in they wouldn't be them without it; I'm not saying that trauma makes you inherently better). Wow, it feels good to finally figure that out.

On a completely different note, Death Note is the most awesome and horrible show I've seen this year. It's fascinating watching these two opposing chessmaster-type characters trying to outmaneuver each other. Even though it's also seriously disturbing. ^^;

Also, I just took a bite of a banana for the first time in 17 years. That was odd. o.O

Edit: http://www.anthroartists.com is a site for anthro artists who are serious about improving and want critique (although that's not the only kind of art they accept, and you don't have to be an artist to join!). It's kind of small right now, though, and needs support. :D
