General
Woke up today to find that someone let a cat into my room, and it peed on my laptop while I was asleep.
Through the case, keyboard, inside, and out the bottom. It was on. When I opened it, it crackled, and everything stopped.
...so there goes all my stuff! Tools, programs, WIPs... Crap.
Anyway! Until further notice, I am stuck on my phone. I have a while account here still, but it won't syncbit with my main one, so I used it for a minimalist account while at work. If people wanna chat now, you can find it with the same username -- just look for a scribkajak.
Hope everyone out there has better luck than me!
UPDATE:
One spend paycheck later, I now have a computer again.
I still lost most of my stuff, and WIP/layered/full size versions of all my current and recent art. But at least I can pop in and out again a little!
UPDATE 2:
Laptop is running, but I'm down to really low speed internet for the rest of the month, and on a new OS... so I don't have my updated program, my tablet drivers, my brushes, etc... even setting up my Antivirus has been a 38+ hour process so far. It may be a few days before I can manage to get things rolling again and resume drawing/creating. It's sucky, but I don't know what else to do about it.
In the meantime, while I'm doing all this downloading on already limited speeds, I can't browse as well as I'd like. So I'll still be around skype, and can lurk a few of the non-demanding sites like this! So hopefully I'll still see some people around!

That's fucking shit dude, I would be so angry, holy hell!
Ugh, that was so careless for that person to do, Jesus.
<3<3<3<3<3
...but that's still shitty.
Sorry to hear about that Jes. That really sucks. So much stuff gone because of a person's carelessness :(. Best wishes and hope everything works out
Im so sorry to hear this. Shit 2016 stop
Not sure if you would want to do the same thing but when my computer got out of commission I grabbed a sketchbook and just used my phone to stay active. It fills the void a little at least so you aren't breaking habits and can stil engage with everybody. Of course I don't know how you feel about it.
