I know, it's been awhile, right? xD

No, before you ask, my feelings regarding this site haven't really changed. I basically am only using this place to follow the people who haven't migrated elsewhere. I still mostly post on Weasyl or IB (which... well, I use only in a VERY limited way, so I don't have to deal with the vast swathes of awful art on it), and over the past few months have not been able to share much due to not having a scanner.

Since last fall, we've been renovating the house. Thanks to former renters refusing to repair the gutters, rainwater spilled directly off the sides of the roof and soaked into the foundation, causing a black mold infestation. As of now, it's probably about 95% of the way repaired, but to remove the mold they had to tear out two of the four walls in our basement. My room was down in the basement, so I ended up having to have most of my belongings packed away while I spent the months in my brother's bedroom. Ugh. So yeah, I'm REALLY glad we're almost done with that!

My old computer broke. RIP. My mom's stupid rescue dog knocked it off the table and the video card was fried by the impact. So I lost ALL of my saved pictures and things on it. I wanted to at least save the hard drive to be converted into an external one to get all the data on it, but my dad basically dropped the computer off at a repair shop and then didn't bother to keep in touch with them. I doubt it's still there, and I've more or less given it up for lost. Oh well! I guess I learned not to depend on my shitty parents for anything. Thankfully I had managed to get a temporary call center job, and with help from a VERY awesome friend (<3) purchased a new one. Windows 10 is a piece of garbage but it gets me from Point A to Point B, so to speak. x)

Anyway, those are the two biggies! Now you're up to speed. My question is as follows:

I'm going to FWA at the end of the month, and on top of that my rockhounding club's gem and mineral show is the same weekend. I'm fully expecting to use my entire savings on both cons. That being said, I could use all the money I can get...

So I'm considering opening commissions. Would anyone be interested in single-char drawings such as this one? If you're going to FWA I can deliver them in-person...
