Whooooa, so, that didn't take very long. I didn't even make a post on PernWorld, and I got a bunch of requests from there! I really, really appreciate the fact that you guys regularly check up on my journal and art and such -- it means a lot to me!

But, now that I've got a list of 10 drawings, I'm going to go ahead and say, for now, I'd rather if people didn't ask for any more. It'll be enough to keep me occupied for a while! Once a few get knocked off the list, people are more than welcome to pop a request my way if you didn't get one in this time, but for now, if you can help it, don't badger me to take on more. XD

I won't get started on these immediately, maybe in a couple days to a week, once I get some personal stuff done around my house that's been bugging me. But, please, if you haven't sent me the info for your drawing, do so as soon as possible. Especially for PernWorld characters, it's a hassle to look up everyone's descs and inspirations. (And hassle means I won't do it. )


Due to the fact that my dog is a TERRIBLE mooch, and a lover of the people food that we will not give her, last night she ran off with the remainder of our dinner pot roast (which there was more than half of left), and today is paying the price with an upset stomach (at least I assume, the way she whimpers and waddles around), and has to go outside once every half hour or so. I am so close to pitying her, minus the fact that a very expensive, very nice pot roast that was cooked with wine went into HER belly instead of my fiances for his lunch today.

We've finished installing some new shelves in the kitchen to amp up some space, but while it helps, I'd rather just rip the wall out and have an open concept between the kitchen and the living room. What is with people and liking these tiny rooms? Seriously, this property is huge, this house could have been way bigger if people were actually THINKING when they built it.

Also, yoga is awesome. It makes me feel alive! I've been starting to sleep a little better, too. I've also been reading a book called "Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life" by Dr. Wayne Dyer. Normally I'm not into this kind of thing -- I love philosophy and psychology, but I'm really against the kind of books that make it sound like all you have to do is change a few things and you'll become a millionaire -- but this particular one by him has a very holisitic approach based on the teachings of the Tao. I'm finding it pretty inspiring, myself.

It's still been freezing cold out the last few weeks. What I would give for it just to be like 12-15 degrees F. That's not too much to ask, is it? It appears to be 10 above today, though, so I may just take a step outside!

Insert more information no one cares about here. Family is still being really 'ngh' towards me. The SO's family is awesome, but maybe a little too overbearing for me. I'm starting to feel more stressed lately than I should be, but.. that's me. I'm always stressed. Still working on getting married. Still thinking about what I want to do with my life. Still fighting depression. Same ol' same ol'.

Hope y'all are having a good winter so far, though!
