I read all of American Elf. It's kind of like a weight off of my shoulders; now I can get distracted by other things. about 11 hours ago from web

I'm twitchy and my heart feels like it's beating fast and i can't focus. Maybe this coffee isn't decaf... about 17 hours ago from txt

Why do i feel so awkward? Anxious? Nervous? I don't know the word, but I can't finish my food despite being hungry when we came in. about 17 hours ago from txt

33 - “ditektiv, u tel me do things”

April 10, 2010

I’m sorry for making you wait over a week then posting this shit, but Photoshop decided to fuck up all my plans.

Allan asked me to draw a logo for Rivalry, and I got really into it… it wasn’t much, but (because my pen tool skills were rusty) it took me about two hours to do. I was SO proud of it when I was done, and as soon as I started applying the final gradient overlay… this happened.

Even though it was just a little logo, it felt like someone had punched me in the gut then told me my dog died. Luckily, Allan leaned over and took a screenshot before I closed it in frustration, so now he’s tracing it himself… because, obviously, all my artistic motivation was ripped out of me.

Anyway, I was going to draw a comic after I finished that, but because of the reason I stated above, this is what happened.

Yeah, this is the exact reason why my parents last computer “mysteriously” was destroyed and was in need of an upgraded replacement.

In my computer arts class, my teacher would yell out “save!” every 5 minutes to make sure this didn’t happen to anyone.
Sorry you lost your work, it used to happen to me a LOT. =(
