holy christ an update
hello internet friends
i went to chicago w/ greg for a few days, met his crazy cat lady mom who had a million adorable kitties(Okay, eleven), got to see the mag mile, eat at unos and have an original chicago style pizza(Their dogs are crap don't listen to them! DC DOGS FOREVER). Went to the planetarium, which was super cool. We saw a presentation about the birth of stars by Whoopi Goldberg(woo hoo!). Then came home and saw the new face off with levar burton <3 this is my childhood week. We had to take the bus up because we missed the train, but we got to take the train home. I can't say I understand the appeal of the train over the bus(At least I could sleep on the bus! It's impossible to get comfortable on the train X.X).
Anyways, work is tough right now. Ass deep in commissions- which is GREAT! And all my commissioners are super cool folks with really creative ideas of what they want, but right now I'm in that 'flit from one thing to another' mode, and its impossible to sit down and finish any one project. I'm going to try and assembly line this stuff to make it seem more cohesive- a method I've never tried. We'll see how it goes. I know my winter queue customers are getting antsy because I had that 3 month period where I basically sat around the couch and made mouth noises instead of working. NOW WITH WARCRAFT GONE D: WOAHhhhh studying and fursuits suddenly flying everywhere.
Realized I've put on weight, which is gross. I miss being 180, so I picked up P90X and am going to make a solid effort to walk half a mile a day and do P90X every day. It's hard to maintain a nice weight when you're sedentary all day sewing animal shapes, but oh well. I miss going to the gym with rusty and having jason as a good influence. I kind of miss everyone in VA, no lie.
Heading to FWA soon, although there's reservations in my mind, but that's not a huge difference from normal.
Adopted a special needs cat from an abusive home, crazy people gave her to me and 2 months lateraka today) came back and wanted to take her back. Well fuck that. Fortuntaely their daughter was much more reasonable than everyone led me to believe she was going to be, and she saw the cat was in a good place so left her here.I'm glad baby has a playmate to keep her occupied. They're really getting along, which is great. ALTHOUGH SOMEONE thought it would be funny to pee on my hoodie(that probably smelled like eleven OTHER cats so I'll let it slide this time). Lookin at you, baby.
Anywys, I'm in a pretty okay place right now, all in all. Things could be much worse, things could be a little better. I'm going to work on making them better and try to keep my nose c
