IT'S 9 A.M. AND I'M STILL AWAKE. I NEVER SLEEEEEEP.

I've been up watching J-Horrors on Youtube. Ekusute and Carved are two of my faves. I so love the slit-mouthed woman... if I could pull it off I'd totally dress like her for Halloween and go around saying, "AIMMM AT MY NEECKKKK"

Speaking of Halloween... anyone have any plans for it? I'm dying with excitement... by this Halloween, will be living with me, and we'll go on an awesome Halloween adventure! I am contemplating my costume... I either want to go as my clown character Boogle, a Silent Hill nurse, or Tia Dalma from PotC. Orrrrr if all else fails, Pee-Wee since I've only gotten to use my Pee-Wee suit once!!!

In other art-y news, I should be getting my scanner soon, so expect a buttload of new deviations. Yay!

Slots filled for now!! Sorry!

Soooo... everyone's pretty much aware by now of the fact my laptop is shite and I can't draw with it. I have other digital commissions I need to finish, but in order to do that, I have to get together enough money for the desktop I want, so here's the deal... I'm going to take THREE detailed graphite commissions, much like the ones I recently listed on Furbid:

But since I also need a scanner, I can only give you a photograph like this one: [link] of your commission. (The unfinished art pictured is also for sale, note with offers if interested! Since it is unfinished, you can optionally instruct what markings you'd like on her! She was going to be a snow leopard.)

I am only about a hundred bucks from being able to get the computer I want, then I'll finally be able to use Photoshop again! But until then, I hope it's understandable that I need to spend this down time taking these. The quicker I can get the money for these, the quicker you'll be seeing more stuff from me and the quicker I can get through the 8 or so digital commissions I have to finish soon!

They'll be $30 for one character and a light background, $50 for two characters or one character with detailed bg. PayPal ONLY at this time since I need the money quick! My PayPal = Vera_of_the_Willow @ Yahoo . com

I'm thinking of getting a new Dell built. This piece of crap Acer laptop is just not cutting it, every dime I spend on it, it comes back to me with twice the problems it had before. I might just keep it as a back-up computer. But I really need something that I can depend on that won't crash, burn a hole through my lap, or do anything else unexpected... I really know nothing about computers and I wouldn't know where to begin to learn anything, so for now, I'm depending on friends and random internet people to help me figure something out.

I just want to be able to draw!! FUCK!!!!!

I was just starting to get a good savings going toward a car (my dream car is an old Volvo wagon, and I was sooo close to being able to get one all on my own...) but in order to keep money coming in, I have to be able to work on commissions, and in order to work on commissions, I need to waste MORE money on a new laptop as well as a new scanner since I don't have one. ._. I'd just get a job but we might be moving soon, again. I'm so sick of moving, and I'm SO sick of computer problems. (BAWWWWW, etc.)

Well, I sent my laptop off to Staples to get it cleaned and checked over, so hopefully I'll have it back good as new in a day or two. (wishful thinking!) I tried to open it up and clean it out myself but to no avail. *not the techiest person* x3

I've been trying to work on as much traditional media art as possible, things to sell... commissions etc... though with FA being down and my laptop (and all references) unavailable to me, it could be a while before I can work on any commissions or post anything. Also still really needing a scanner lol.

There is some good news in life for me right now, though... I get to go to Pennsylvania to see my *DarkHeartsClub for a week or two, and it will be my first time riding a train anywhere. I'm anxious and scared at the same time! We also found out that if he can get the transfer, he will be living with me by two months from now, and I'm super excited about that. However... my dad could get a job in South Carolina soon, so we're still not sure where he should be transferring TO, but we should definitely know by the end of this month. Either way, lots of hectic things going on in real-life with several worries and frustrations... but I'm sure they'll all be worth it in the end.

For the past few weeks, my laptop's been REALLY pissing me off. It gets super hot if I have more than one program open, the mouse pointer is glitchy and when I try to draw, well... it's just impossible to use photoshop while the pointer jumps. When I try to play music, it's glitchy as well and every few seconds it sounds like a cd skipping. I've tried cleanups, restarting, nothing works and it's really starting to drive me nuts.

No art til I can figure this out -_-
