The Red-Haired Chronicles
The Ever-Twisting Life Behind the Doomie
January, month of general nothingness and doom +4

Mood : Hell if I know, my brain's lacking too much sleep to even try figuring it out.

Currently : Banging my head on my desk

Listening to : Etoiles Filantes - Les Cowboys Fringants (How many times? Dunno, I lost track after 200...)

Comissions left to do on list : 4 (yes, same as 2 months ago, I'm that pathetic)

Well, as of two days ago, my computer has been running A-ok. Me and my dad managed to block out or quarantine any remaining trojans, virii, etc. and set up firewalls to prevent further IE hijacking. Had to reformat a couple of times, but in the end it was worth it. Internet's fixed as well, which means I'm actually posting from my copmp and not my dad's anymore. x3
Now I just need to get my scanner working again and get Photoshop <_<

Meh, I don't think the problem is my computer anymore, but rather myself. I have about 3 or 4 customers left on my Gaia comissions list, some of them having waited for ages to get their stuff done, and now I'm sitting here, feeling totally out of it. On top of that, I had taken engagement into making a Christmas pic, which I didn't even get halfway done by the 25th... even now, the pad I had started the latest pic for it in is lying somewhere around here, under all my college application pamphlets and game strategy guides. ._.

Furthermore, I haven't been able to draw much of anything good lately, except maybe for that head pic of Akhyraelle I did to test my scanner and Photoshop CS between two reformats, when I thought my computer wwas fixed. ~ le sigh ~

Among other things, which I don't really remember mentionning in my last hournal, I broke up with my girlfriend, not entirely because we had a bad relationship, but rather for her own good. It was a pain just to get to see eachother, and she was ready to use any and all money she had just for that. We talked on MSN, and over time she got jeakous of my ease at school and my drawings, not to mention I was always too busy to be with her, even online. A lot of people call me a nice guy, but sadly, I think this angel's not going to see daylight just yet, as if I expect to go to college and I'm already busy 24/7 just in highschool, I can't imagine the workload I'll have then. Also, the relationship somewhat turned one-way with time. At time, I didn't really know what brought me to her, wether it was love or pity for the conditions she had to live in and the trouble she faced in life... and I later realised that it was the latter. I've yet to discover what this "love" is, but I guess everything comes in it's own time. If you read this Jenn, well, all I can say is "I'm sorry", and hopefully you can find someone worthwhile to be part of your life.

Oi. I don't know if the ensuing depression/guilt-trip I had was the reason for it, but as of the week I broke up, I've been rusty on drawing. I mentionned it above, but nothing will come out right. Either the arms are too long, faces are all wrong, muzzles look like they're twisted and bent, eyes empty... x_x

Can someone shoot me now? ._.
...actually, naw, scratch that. I'll just puck up a smile and listen to some more songs by Les Cowboys Fringants, hoping for the better to come. Anyhow, time to get back to work on pics if I want to get anything done before the end of my time.

As for gaia comissions, anybody who was left on my list gets theirs free of charge. After making everyone wait so long, I'm not even going to take any gold, that would be just downright wrong. As for the Christmas pic, I have a few ideas what to do with it, I'll be psoting in the Furries Guild about it.

For those who bother checking my DeviantART gallery, I litteraly copy-pasted the journal post, as I felt too lazy to re-write another one for Gaia. Meh.

Don't worry, everything will balance itself out eventually. You have a good idea of just sitting back and waiting for the good times. You'll have more time for stuff at some point.

I'm not one to talk, though. After a few months of good times, I start having seizures, my mother doesn't get paid, she can't collect welfare 'cause her boss says "Yep, I'll pay her tomorrow", I have to buy groceries, pay for school trips (which I'm not sure if I'll be going to), go to school and work, and find the time to relieve stress through games. I've also spent about 3 months without drawing a single blade. My characters are going at an almost staggeringly slow pace, and I'm getting too many ideas for stories.

And to top it all off, my new medication makes it almost impossible to wake up before 11 AM. Every morning I drag myself out of bed, walk to school, almost fall asleep in class, skip lunch for some extra-cirricular thing, go home, sit around for 20 minutes, go to work for 2 hours, go home, play video games, try to do homework, watch TV, and finally sleep.
