Life, Art, and Other Time Wasters
9 years ago
Hello all. So I haven't been online much in a contributing way. In fact I haven't even posted a journal since my little brother's death almost three months ago. A good bit has happened since then.
My family and I have been doing our best to get on with our lives after his tragic loss. They still haven't caught the killers, and in all reality probably never will, or at least not for THIS murder. My mother is of course taking it the hardest of all. She has an especially hard time on Sundays (the day he died) and Thursdays (the day we had his memorial).
On a happier note, me and my girlfriend of almost three years attended our first Doctor Who convention on Memorial Day weekend. While we were down in Atlanta basking in our nerdity I asked her to marry me and she said yes. :D
Just today I turned in an application and resume for a total CAKE job at her metal finishing plant. I've been contemplating leaving the Waffle House for quite a while now, and this might finally be the opportunity I've been waiting for.
As for my art, I'm afraid I just haven't been able to get the energy, time, and drive to do any artwork all together at the same time in order to actually DRAW anything. I have so many ideas and things I want to do. I have the Free February Commissions drawn and inked on my laptop right now, but just can't seem to get it going to color them. I will though, I know I'll get back into it, and I'll get moving on all my other ideas too.
Until then, know that I miss all my artistic buddies and I miss providing you with my shenanigans. I'll try to get back into the game sooner rather than later, but for now I'm passing my time just watching all the movies and TV shows I've yet to enjoy. :)
