8 Years Passed
I just found out I can't change my Username without paying? Eh, that sucks.
SO.
8 years.
In that time I have:
Gotten hired full time at my job.
Built a gaming PC.
Tried to have a Let's Play channel on Youtube.
Killed my car.
Bought a new car.
Watched my dad die from pneumonia.
Attended a local and large convention. (For those of you who care, it was Midoricon and MAGFest)
Bought a house.
Moved into said house.
Had a son with my wife.
Moved my mom into our house.
Had our son diagnosed as autistic.
And right now, I'm finishing up a 4 week stretch off for bonding time for myself and my daughter.
Art kinda took a backseat. I still draw, but not to the frequency that I did in, say, high school or college. And when I do draw, I don't feel like it's anything that I really want to share with the world. Not like I used to, anyways. I'm out of practice. I used to really despise my old artwork, but looking through it this evening, it's not as bad as I once thought. A little rough around the edges, but I definitely had something going. This year has been rough on everyone, for sure. I have had a lot more free time on my hands because of COVID-19. Did I spend it drawing? Not really. There's that whole feeling of wanting to do so much and then never doing anything because of it. I want to do more. I would love to use this site to the extent I did 15 years ago. I know there's a way to balance home-life, work and all that jazz. I have yet to figure that one out. Oh, well. Maybe I'll draw? Who knows?
Certainly not me.
It's a "Let's Play" video series that Daniel and I are working on.
And by "working on," I mean having a sweet ass time playing some old (And at some point, new) video games.
It's like you're sitting on the couch beside us, enjoying all the fun as well!
So, please, link, comment, subscribe.
Hopefully you like it. I know I do.
Also, some fun facts about that video!
I drew that image of Daniel and myself specifically for the series. So yeah, we've been working on it since September.
The intro was done on the final use of my Flash CS6 trial. It stayed open for about 48 hours, (SUCKERS! I got two extra days!) and survived two power outages before it finally was finished.
I went and saw Wreck-It Ralph last week, and you should, too. It has nothing to do with the videos, I've been telling everybody to do it recently.
Devious Journal Entry
I'm going to try to do so more. It's just that there have been some more important things going on in my life than making drawings.
Things like losing a job, and trying to keep staying at the apartment you live at.
Things like moving back into your parents house.
Things like getting a new job.
Like getting married.
Like working various different shifts.
I have an immense amount of respect for people who can do that and still find drawing time.
I'm going to try and do more.
This and this.
WOW! INTERWEBS AGAIN!
I'm back online.
Gonna get my hands on a scanner and then bring you all somethin' nice.
