Well, I was going to write a nice entry in addition to the return of the list, but instead I managed to delete what I wrote thanks to dA's persnickety site problems that go hand in hand with ads. It managed to delete my entire entry when I pressed backspace. I don't understand how this happened, but I know that an ad was loading at the same time. Does this happen to others?

But in any case, I don't have the patience to deal with it (at work) and thus I may do another entry later. Maybe not.

Actually it won't be as bad this time...but I've been seriously slacking around here. Well, mostly because I've been reading or translating...but yeah, I figure it's time to make the list again since there are some things I've been meaning to but just haven't due to apathy, stress from work, and stress from dealing with the house issues. BUT that is no excuse for not getting anything done. So here's the list for May and it's not as big as the last, though there are repeats.

1. The One Question picture. (Colour 80%)
2. Auron and Riana for (TN 100% pencil 0%)
3. Website (40%)
4. The pie comic (this is now fast becoming a joke rather than a project) (TN 20% pg 1 pencil 100%)
5. First Draft of Chapter 2 of el comic (45%)
6. Prologue and Chapter 1 of Saiunkoku Monogatari Volume one (draft 1 100%, edit 0%)
7. Prologue and Chapter 1 of Saiunkoku Monogatari "Jigoku no Sata mo Kimi Shidai" (draft 1 Prologue 100% ch 1 0%)
8. Colour "Boys will be Boys" Picture. (Colour 25%)

Actually, I was wrong, this list is pretty long too...Item #1 has been almost done for a month now, I've just been too chicken to actually sit down and watercolour because I'm afraid of ruining it. >_> 5-7 probably is what's the farthest along...#2 is still at thumbnail stage, although the first thing I drew (or tried to draw) in a week was Auron. Needless to say it made me realise I need to uh get back into figure drawing. I weep. But I really want to do #2 because I like my idea.

So yes, no more things like reading (oh SaiMono 13, you had my soul for a week) and lounging around harassing my cats (who are cute despite being prehistoric). So maybe I'll do better and get things done on this list?

This journal is kind of turning into the health problems journal. Sigh. I think I unintentionally did something to my arm, my right arm, which is my drawing arm. I keep getting pains up my wrist to my elbow. Now, usually I don't like to cry carpal tunnel or the like, but this started from yesterday. I seemed to either fling my arm back wrong or I just noticed that something was off, thanks to flinging my arm back while folding laundry. Well, when I pull my arm back usually with a jerk I have this pain that shoots from my elbow downwards and today it's mostly been in my wrist. Although I've been feeling pretty achy in my wrist and elbow. So I'm wondering, what is this and is there something I can do in the meantime before I decide to go a-visiting the doctor about it (seeing as I have to find a new doctor now). I don't want it to get worse, especially since it is my drawing arm after all.

What else? Well, I've been writing and translating and keeping the house clean for open house.

And I kind of feel like I'm drooling all the time, but that's thanks to the anesthetic that is slowly wearing off. I'm also at work, so it's kind of embarassing to feel like I'm drooling constantly. So yeah, I had a cavity filled and it sucks. It also doesn't help that I was told that this was a rather deep cavity and if I persisted in having pain or sensitivity or if it got worse, then I'd need a root canal. Something I'd rather not find out what it feels like.

So I've also not been productive this week, except that I have been writing quite a bit. Only nothing that I should be writing but I've been really slacking on the art and I'm looking to rectify that starting this weekend. =/ I've also been slacking on translations. But I am almost done with Saiunkoku Monogatari volume 13, the book that I'm not translating until later. >_> Go figure. So many things I need to do so little time.

So weekend will be time to start to reverse the trend of slacking.

But what I really want to do right now? Sleep.

....

I also need to start to get ready to move to Northern California.



Also, to , sorry if I offended you over our heated discussion in the One Question forum. =/ I didn't mean to if I did.

And to please take anything I say in criticism with a grain of salt, or maybe a heap and just do what the story tells you. You're doing great in telling it so far and will assuredly do so in the future as well.

Have a good weekend everyone! And congrats to the new addition to 's family!
