Getting back into the, rubbery, groove.

Heya all!
Long time no update right? Well that's coming to an end and I'll slowly start posting more art very shortly!
But I do owe you folks out there an explanation as to why I've been so quiet, bar for the odd fave and comment.
Well honestly it's been a lot of things. After the daily stuff I was doing I started to feel a bit burnt out, this stuff happens in a cycle with me it seems. So that definitely played a role as to why I needed to take a bit of time off from making things. It's taken a while to pass and in the mean time I've been play a whole bunch of video games, which is good because not a lot relaxes me like a good video game!
Then the next biggest cause of the hiatus was work. Now I'm not remotely in love with my job. It's a means to an end, but I'm glad to have one that affords me the lifestyle I currently get to live. One thing I don't do is shirk the responsibilities that come with it. Unfortunately one of the VM host servers decided to start acting up and spontaneously shut down and upon restart refuse to read the main drive till we hard reset it again. This went on for a solid month and a bit as we attempted to resolve the issue ourselves along with external support and the actual server brands support(they were useless). Turned out the main SSD for the OS was dying, which I had suspected, but was told to try everything else before we replaced it and rebuild the host. It meant I had two weeks with no weekends trying to solve this shit and a whole HEAP of stress. Fortunately that is over now too!
Unfortunately it did have a side effect. All that stress, combined with an overzealous hand for spicy foods(and generally poor eating habits), led to me developing a stomach ulcer. I went on meds for it and they did the trick, but it made the area around my stomach pain in sympathy while it was around. Little to say this mean I felt like doing NOTHING when I got home, let alone focusing on art. That is now mainly gone, acts up now and again and I have to be careful with what I eat.
On top of that I was best man at a friends wedding, which turned out great. This squeaky dragon loves talking to a crowd and my speech went off to great success! Still all that planning and getting ready was a pain in the tail and didn't help with everything else going on.
Still good stuff happened too! Lots of games played, spent time with my friends and some of my rubbery gear arrived(I'll upload pictures after this journal, still waiting for the main suit). Along with some fun sex toys too!
Anyway I've got a lot I still need to sort out. A proper schedule, I have my Medical Aid physical tomorrow and I need to get back into the groove of getting a good few things done every day instead of just lazing around. Art however will be returning on Monday with a new latex-y pokemon pic and from there I have a good few new ideas of what I want to do! I'll also be active on telegram again tomorrow, I've been around just not talkative and I'll poke you all to see who's up for chatting.
Anyway just thought you folks would like to know what I've been up to!
If you want to see me talk about random stuff you can follow me on twitter: @mythichex
Chat soon!
