Fu Dog HustleYes you heard correctly. It's still the year of the rabbit until
Chinese New Year which I believe is the 23rd of January.
Speaking of rabbits, I had an awesome Christmas and as part of my haul got a rabbit calendar to mark the new year!
The Christmas Eve just past was spent with friends:
Vamore,
Kraden,
carnival,
patronise,
TidalNight, and of course my husband
electromancerThe food was delicious, the company was delightful. We watched some Christmas specials and the Nightmare Before Christmas and of course exchanged gifts.
Because Spark and I are retail dogs we're usually pretty tired of Christmas by the time it rolls round and it often creeps up on us before disappearing and moving onto Easter in an anti-climatic fashion. But this year we were both very excited to celebrate and buy gifts for our friends.
So a huge shout out goes to those guys for getting us into the Christmas spirit this year. I'm already looking forward to next year!
Also thanks to Carni for getting me a deviantart subscription! Nothing motivates me to make a journal like CSS!
Art NewsI don't think there's much of this unfortunately. Sometimes I sit down and try to produce something, anything! But I end up with a smudged page and a lot of eraser filings on my lap. I wouldn't call it 'art-block' as I have ideas. More like I get incredibility dissatisfied as I lay down a few lines.
My output is probably like 5%.
Perhaps I should undertake some kinda art challenge. Maybe not those 30 day things though.
I was thinking either art requests or some kinda theme challenge.
What do you guys think?
Is there anything you'd like to see me draw?
On the OutsideI'm enjoying work these days. Did I ever tell you guys my ass hole supervisor left and we got this awesome person who actually knows what they are doing and doesn't blame me when they get in trouble with the store manager! Everything is clean and tidy and there's no one who smells bad.
This isn't just bitchiness talking. My previous manager had terrible hygiene and smoked something that smelled like wee.
Anyway, things are pretty sweet now. The store was recently renovated so we got a lot of new equipment and a huge freezer (my favourite part).
On the InsideHow are you guys doing by the way? Hope you've all had a pleasant holiday period. I know a few people had a hard time recently with personal tragedies, and while there's never a good time for that sort of thing, I think it's even worse around Christmas when everyone is thinking about spending quality time with their families.
So my thoughts go out to all those people who lost loved ones or even just had scares.
In closing, Happy New Year to you all!
CommissionsI'll just leave this as open, as I'll never get any if I never mention them.
I'll update later with more details I think.
