GRAAAAAAAH from Chicago!

Yay, I'm now living in Chicago! I just drove in yesterday, and right now, I'm living with a friend for a brief spell while my new place gets a slap of paint and some new flooring.
THIS SUCKS.
Why?
Because I thought my stuff (which is being hauled by a moving company) would be arriving shortly after I got here, so I packed up all my art supplies, including MY TRAVEL ART TABLET, along with everything else to be picked up by the movers. And now I find out that, because of the renovations, I'm going to have to delay the delivery of my stuff for about a week or two. I want to draw, have time to draw, and can't draw.
I'm an idiot. Travel art tablet is for travel. Moving to Chicago counts as travel. Argh.
So I would love to be streaming art and practicing my lineless coloring and working on leg anatomy and so on, but I can't, and it's driving me nuts.
Rest assured, however, that as soon as things are fixed up and my stuff comes in... my art muse will suddenly vanish and I'll have a million pressing things to do. >.< FML.
Just kidding, I'm sure I'll have plenty of things to draw, so stay tuned! *fingers crossed*

If softball interests you at all, be sure to check out this post. I'm too far away to make every game, but I try to make it to at least one or two a year.
Doesn't mean I won't miss ya though. I'll still see you at cons with your blue dragon shirt I like so much.
Moving is fun, isn't it? I'm using Atlas's Smart Vaults for my move, i'll get to live in a new place for two weeks before my stuff arrives, oh joy.

- Cheaper rent/housing
- Closer to family
- Better climate (in my opinion)
- Health reasons (hoping my fibromyalgia was just environmental)
- Opportunity to live without roommates (see reason #1)
- Local friends
- Career change
BTW, I've been telling friends about this video. It's for CTS not fibro, but who knows, it might help a little when your hands are sore.
