Question: How much do you feel you've changed as a person over the last few years? I feel like I've changed a LOT...mostly for the better. Had to go through some rough stuff to get there, but I think the current me is vastly superior to the old me. I feel I'm slowly but surely getting less obnoxious and more thoughtful, but there's still a long way to go. The 20's are a horrible time of life, almost as bad as the teens, but in different ways. I hope I've changed for the better...I can be pretty cringeworthy, and I salute all my friends who have put up with me for as long as they have. :\

Just come to expect I go AWOL every so often.

Hi.

I have had...a hard time over the past couple of years. I struggle with depression and anxiety, you see, and it has been kicking my butt. I hadn't made much art because I just didn't have the motivation. I was actually suicidal for a while, right up until about a month ago, in fact. I've been trying to exercise regularly, though. Eat lots of fruit. Got prescribed new meds. I got a new job that isn't retail and I'm loving it. Things are starting to look up for me, and I'm feeling a lot better. I know this is a lot of personal crap, but I have always been pretty open about my mental health issues because I know a lot of other people struggle with them and I want to raise awareness and let people know they aren't alone. So things do get better. Please remember that.

The unfortunate part is, my art is crap because I haven't been practicing. Plus computer issues and tablet issues and all that good stuff. But it's good to be back. I'll always love DA.

There is really no excuse for this shit anymore.

But yeah, so I disappeared again. I would have come back earlier, but this time I had no wi-fi for a month. I really want to get back into posting art regularly again because it motivates me to do more, but then I have no motivation to post and it's just a vicious cycle of stupid.

HI!

I don't even know what's going on on DA anymore. How are you all?

ARE YOU EVEN ALIVE?

My computer had to go to the hospital because of a busted DC jack. Yes, computer is better now, and yes, my computer's name is Clyde.

BUT DUDE, I DIDN'T HAVE MY LAPTOP FOR NEARLY THREE WEEKS. I SANG UNCHAINED MELODY TO IT WHEN IT CAME BACK. I HAVE PROBLEMS.

But that's why I disappeared again. Just thought I'd update.

Art is to come.

Yep, I'm actually showing my art IRL for once! I've never done it before, and I'm super excited! Anyway, it's for a big goth party at this bar, and it happens every month. There's always classic post punk and deathrock music, nummy drinks, and local artists and vendors that come out and show/sell their stuff. I will be dressed to the nines in all my ridiculous finery, and will have a table set up with my art and a few prints available for purchase. I doubt any of you are in ~~~San Antonio, Texas,~~~ but on the off-chance that you are, come out and see me at the Thirsty Camel Bar & Lounge on Saturday, February 15th at 9:00. There will be drinking, dancing, and carrying on. Plus, you can dress up like an Ann Rice character and nobody will notice. IDs are required, since it is a bar, and it's 21+.
Again, it's The Thirsty Camel Bar & Lounge on Saturday, February 15th at 9:00.

Now watch all my internet stalkers show up in droves.
