Lately, I've been working on drawings I never finish. It's like I get done with the sketch and ink, but hate the way I color. It's weird.

I've been in a nostalgic/depressed sort of mood too. I went on SL today and looked through my avatars. Some are 8 years old and they seriously look horrible. I took pictures of a lot of them in the hopes of drawing less horrible versions of them. Mostly, they brought to mind fun times with old friends. I could remember building every avatar and what was going on at that time as if I was looking at a photo. Good times. Sure there were a lot of bad times too, but I found myself missing a lot of the people in those memories.

I remember all of the good times I had, but I don't know how I ever became friends with them. In most cases it seems like I just hung around until they included me. Kinda creepy. I guess I'm a Grade A lurker. These days it's just me and Xander. We see Ces at Christmas, but that's it. Some days I miss all those pinging chat windows. Other days I find something new to watch or buy a new video game.

I hope the world is treating all of my old friends well. I think about them often.
