My dog scared me to death tonight. :/
Posted 13 years agoLong story short my dog had a seizure and now I'm terrified that if I turn my back for more than a minute, if I go to sleep or go leave the house or something she'll have another and I won't be there for it. I'm afraid of her having another because then we'll have to go to the vet and I can't afford vet bills. I can't afford all the tests they'll want to do. I can't afford it. But I can't emotionally afford to lose my baby either. I think I'll die if anything happens to her. I love her more than I do myself. I put her needs above my own even.
Make this nightmare end.
Make this nightmare end.
Life update!
Posted 13 years agoSo, I went to the Dr's today after getting labwork done a few weeks ago. Turns out I have hypothyroidism and vitamin D deficiency. Yay! So I get put on medication for that and we'll see how things go. I brought up my anxiety to the Dr and she referred me to a psychologist, where I'll be getting an eval and some help for coping skills etc for that. And I can get a real eval for ASD too, so that's a plus as well.
On the art side of things, I'm slowly working through a big art block I hit. It wasn't necessarily a talent block as it was a motivation block. I got depressed and such and wasn't motivated for anything for a while. I'm working on the sketch for Glenni, then I'll be back to finishing up everything I owe before I open up for new commissions. I'm dead out of money and borrowing from my mom to get my prescriptions, so I definitely need to take some commissions soon. Any ideas maybe?
I got my aquarium filter replaced, I got stuff situated. My friend is moving in next week, this will be fun.
As for SL? Me and Glenni are probably going to start up our shop again with cartoon kids clothing, among other things like yabu etc. So if you're on SL keep an eye out for that. c:
That's all for now. <3

so I had my first legal drink...
Posted 13 years agoI had some mixed drink at Applebees tonight since I turned 21 a few weeks ago.
I had a 'Wildberry Mango' with "Sauza Gold" in it. Whatever that is. I was hoping it'd taste more like mango, but whatever. x3 It wasn't too bad.
I had 2 of them since it was a 2 for 1 deal tonight, and by the 2nd one the only thing I felt was a bit of head rush I guess you can say. Idk how to describe it. That and I felt even more sensitive to the sounds around me which wasn't exactly pleasant.
But I had a decent time, friends did Karaoke and nailed it. What more to expect from a bunch of Chorus students? x3
So yeah. I'm not too impressed with the whole drinking deal. But I'm also weird and broken enough as is without alcohol. I'm a bit afraid to see me drunk. x3
Maybe another time I'll try something else. Maybe something not so expensive too. e-e That was like $7 for a drink...

Post con report and a few other things.
Posted 13 years agoShushie I know I'm late. x3
Megaplex was a blast. I'm hoping to start expanding to more cons and events, like Elliots, Furloween and maybe FWA.
A few days before Thursday my suit from
tailbiter came in, Ashes! We finally bought him and he's now me and bob's. <3 I mostly wear the suit because it was made for a short chubby girl, which I am! He needs a little more touch ups for durability but I love it and can't wait to get a suit of Sila.
Onwards..
We got there thursday afternoon and since it was only going to be Bob and I until friday (or at least so was the original plans), we hung out in our friend Shngy's room and watched the con staff set up last minute things. We hung out for a few hours before heading down to The fursuit bowling event. My first one! We paid like $10 for 2 hours of bowling, and I barely bowled at all. We were next to
, the ever so awesome Orlando Fox. Who I thought was a crux at first! lol. I ended up not bowling like, at all, because I was too busy entertaining little kids in suit. There was this really sweet little girl, maybe a year or two old, who LOVED the suits. I ended up being around them most of the time, then I went to our makeshift "headless lounge" and cooled off with some weird barely-flavored lemon water. After the event ended and we all went back to our hotel, we kinda just hung around until
Tailbiter called and said he and kili were comin' over and asked if we had any crash space left in the room. We figured it all out and I got an awesome plushie from TB for my birthday <3 i can never have too many plushies!! XD Me, TB and Bob all crashed on the bed and the night ended.
Friday I woke up relatively early and kept bugging Bob and them to get up so we could go. That ended up being a repeating theme all weekend. Note to self, next year get a room in the main con hotel so I can just walk down without them. :v
We went down, hung out for a while and bugged people (like
Skippyfoxcub) until preregistration opened, and I got my tag.
Honestly most of the con is a blur by now. It went by so fast, but I had so much fun at the same time. I was in suit a lot and over heated a lot, but I think I'm getting my tolerance up a bit too. I ripped the shoe out of my suit's footpaw while walking around trying to find my wallet (which I had left in Muira's room, oops), and so I had to fix that before the fursuit parade. Which I almost missed because we were trying to fix it after I was waiting around all day and all evening for someone who could lend me some glue. Ugh. But I caught the tail end of the parade and I made the fursuit games, which was hilariously fun. Try fitting your huge stompy paws through a hula hoop without using your hands. XD
I absolutely loved the last day of the con though. I got to know Orlando a little better, and she's so huggy! ;-; I swear I hugged her like 5 times before I finally left. And right before I had to leave, we got to make some kids really happy. <3
See, saturday night some lady and her kids wanted to see what all the suiters were about, but the lady couldn't even afford a dance pass for her and her kids. So the con staff decided to let them into the lobby and called a bunch of suiters around to go play with the kids. They loved it and so did I. Hearing the story at closing ceremonies made me almost cry. I was so glad to get the chance to play with them in suit, tickling them and just being overall silly.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8536460/
Another highlight was when they were auctioning off Orlando's artwork for charity...And when the price got higher and higher she kept trying to run away. It took me and like 4 others to hold her down..and it was funny. x3 She even told me that 'You guys kill me.' which just made me laugh more. :>
At the end, we did a night time fursuit parade, and I got to line up with Kilion and
Amberyn77 as we marched down the hallway arm in arm. Until we had to walk single file before I fell over something...*blushes*
It was great, and I really can't wait to get a fursuit of Sila and run around as a hyper puppy trying to lick everyone and chase a ball around. x3
Since this turned out to be so long, I'll do another journal later with the 'other things', including upcoming commission slots, goals, etc!

Megaplex! (updated)
Posted 13 years agoWhere are you staying?
In the motel 6 with
Kilion bob and
bolt_thunders :3
What are you driving/flying/riding?
Bob's driving me n him both :D
Where will you be most of the time during the days?
Wandering around the entire con. Shyly looking at all the artists. Maybe doing a few doodles at the artists alley. ^^
Who will you be rooming with?
with
Kilion bob and
bolt_thunders :3
Do you do free art or trades?
If I'm already doodling, and you have a ref of some sort AND you're nice about it- then sure I'll doodle you something for free :3
I will do trades for padding or sweets like cookies and stuff. x3 Maybe an energy drink if you can manage to find NOS!
Do you do commissions?
Yes but at the con I'll only be doing simple sketches probably, x3 I don't have any colored pencils or anything.
I'll gladly trade a pic for padding though! I'm really looking for some cushies, some of the ABU BMX diapers, or bambino teddies, or something else! I wear a large though. Just poke me at the con :3
Do you have prints/CDs?
Nope
What suit(s) will you have?
I will be running around in Ashes the silver fox!
Can I dance with you?
uhm... if you can manage to pull me out of my shy-mode, then maybe? I'm extremely awkward and clumsy though.
You're talking to someone and I would like to say hi, but don't know how; what can I do?
Wait for a break in conversation and introduce yourself :3
What is your gender?
Female
How old are you?
21
How tall are you?
about 5 ft
Are you mated?
Yes. <3
Can I touch you?
Please do NOT touch me unless I initiate it. And that'll only be hugs n such. If I'm in suit, just hold your arms out if you want a hug. I don't handle being touched well so pets and back rubs n stuff are very awkward and uncomfortable for me and I'll tense up.
Certain people who know who they are, are allowed to bypass this though.
Can I talk to you?
Yes but I'm shy and I speak fast when excited. ^^;
Can I hug you?
I don't mind hugs when I'm in suit or if I know you. Just ask! (Verbally ask, that is- I dont pick up on body language well all the time!)
Can I take photos of you/with you?
Sure, just lemme know ^^
Can I buy you lots of drinks?
Sodas or energy drinks are fine, but I don't drink alcohol.
Can I give you lots of money?
No unless I give you arts back, I'd feel bad Dx
Can I hug or snuggle with you?
This was asked already! I don't mind hugs when I'm in suit or if I know you. Just ask! (Verbally ask, that is- I dont pick up on body language well all the time!) . Snuggling is a no, I'm mated and will only cuddle up to my best friends or my mate.
Can we hang out?
Sure, but better not mind me bringing my mate along, hehe.
Are you nice?
I try to be, but I'm shy as I've said before. I might not know how to talk back with you if I run out of ideas!

How long have you been drawing for? (To artists). [SemiRant]
Posted 13 years agoI'm curious...How long have you been actively drawing with the intentions of studying and getting better?
I've been at it since my 2nd year of middle school. I've been out of high school for 3 years now. That's at least, what...10 years total since I've been trying to get better at art? I can't figure out the stupid secret to it. Some people went from where I'm at, to whipping out a full pose "sketch" within minutes, in just 2 or 3 years.
I sit there all day just to draw a hand, and still can't get it right...
I've done it all. I've referenced photos. I've referenced real life. I've drawn it over a million times. I've gotten redlines, critique, suggestions, advice. I've used those mannequins. I looked in the mirror. You name it I've probably tried it.. But I still can't do it.
It's like my brain is broken. I don't know how people even /think/ of things like foreshortening, let alone manage to draw it and pull it off right. My attempts look forced. My poses are stiff and somewhat broken. My expressions are flat and emotionless.
I just dunno what to do. It makes me want to just quit drawing. but I have nothing else that makes me happy...but when the one thing that makes you happy also frustrates you and just pisses you right off, what are you supposed to do?
It seems like the people who want to help can't...but the people who can, won't. I can't directly ask for help, it's hard if not impossible for me to say 'I need help with ___ , can you help me?' because my anxiety won't let me. I try to hint at it but I get ignored. :/ I'll ask for help over fa or bf.me and get ignored...same for skype, IRC, yahoo...
How do you do it? If studying from life doesn't work, if all other things have failed...and i've been "practicing" for 10 years non stop... What do I do from here?
-sighs and goes to pass out n sleep-

Any artists available to help redline something?
Posted 13 years agoI'm not too good at this pose I drew and I'm looking for a bit of help before I ink it n such. Can anyone help me out?
Registered for MP!
Posted 13 years agoFinally registered for megaplex! Yay. <3 I just went with regular admission, no sponsor. I figured I'd just save my money and spend it on food at walmart or something instead of snacks at the sponsor lounge.
That being said, I'm going to be taking commissions like nuts until then. As much money as I can gather will make the con that much easier for me. Lesser anxiety over money = better. Means I can enjoy the con more. x3
For now I have a preposed commission up for grabs, check it out :3
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8024209/
I'm also open for just about everything else too~

Updated worklist :3
Posted 13 years agoKnocked another picture down, I got 1 more to shade and 3 more to lineart then color. :D I've got some ideas for sketches and such, so keep an eye out on some pre-posed sketch sales from me soon. <3
I also wanted to say thank you so much to everyone :D You all keep coming back and supporting me and my art, even when I go and rant about small things or complain, or just even never talk. I'm going to try and be more productive soon, I hit a rough spot where I was just being distracted by everything and couldn't get my act together. I'm working on that. <3
Thank you guys for being awesome, and I'll do my best to keep up :D

Well there goes my summer. :/
Posted 13 years agoWas hoping on getting a job, but nope. I'm forced to babysit my mom's friend's 6 year old everyday for just $15 a week. A WEEK. That's like $3 a day. :/ I can't afford anything I need with that little money sadly. But i can't just go and ask for more, because she's poor too and I'm lucky to get anything at all. I usually end up watching her for free.
You'll be seeing me spam for commissions coming soon...I desperately need money to afford megaplex, a new tablet, and things like that let alone food or help with bills...but I won't be able to do any of that with a paycheck of $15 a week. This is gunna suck big time. ;-;
Lewney: Your sketch is almost done. <3 Just need to finish the eyes and stuff.

Anyone know anything about wetsuits?
Posted 13 years agoI'm looking into wet suit tops and such for a few reasons but I dunno what I should look into.
I do not surf, skimboard, ski, scuba, or do anything that would require an expensive high quality suit.
However, I burn very easily even through sunscreen. I don't like bathing suits or regular shirts that get stuck to my body and are hard to wring out n such.
I'd like something that would be light enough to wear under regular clothing for the compression aspect, because compression is something that I crave the sensation of. But I'd also like to be able to use it for swimming too, beach or pool. When I'm at the beach I body surf sometimes but nothing serious.
Having said that, my price range is kinda low. I can only afford maybe $40 max or so. I don't care if it's used or has a small hole or what not, if it works it works.
I also plan to wear board shorts with it too.
Im also thinking long sleeved would be better because then it won't squeeze my chubby arms and pinch them or get uncomfortable n stuff. But i'd like to be able to wear it underneath other clothing too, so maybe short sleeved?
and what's a rash guard versus a swim shirt, etc?
Edit: Thinking about going with this:

It looks light enough that I can wear under clothing, would provide some basic sun protection, and would be a comfortable snug fit. Any comments on it?

Posted 13 years agoBob saw a snippet of Narnia's prince caspian earlier today, he didn't think he was going to like it, he thought it was going to be cheap acting etc...
Watched the first one, and he loved it. :D I winn.

Tiiiired.
Posted 13 years agoDidn't sleep much last night, woke up early to babysit, ready to pass out. X-x
Hopefully I'll stream sometime tonight, I need to get motivated again but it's hard to be motivated when no one eggs you on or anything. No real end or goal in sight y'know?
On a side note, only about $20 away from per-registering for megaplex. <3

Pretty music cover <3
Posted 13 years agoStill (slowly) working on the rest of my commissions. Promise. <3
home grown organic tomatoes taste amazing.
Posted 13 years agoJust sayin. <3 First crop of our garden was a tomato, fit in the palm of my hand but tasted soo much better than the store bought ones. I totally am going to extend my garden over time and get more plants!
Logging off of the internet for the day.
Posted 13 years agoApril fools is an aspie's worst nightmare. Can't understand jokes, or tell the difference between sarcasm and not.
But I'm going to an adults with aspergers/autism meet this afternoon, so I'll have an excuse to be gone anyway. :3
Also been playing minecraft a bit again lately, trying to get the hang of redstone and pistons. New babyfur server will be opening up to whitelisting soon :3 Anyone from SL will know the name 'Misfit cubs'. x3
