Saw a magic show tonight.

Note to self: avoid "intimate venues"

Just identified a huge discrepancy in this commission right after signing off on it. It worries me that artists really are being sloppy with me because I have a hard time noticing things.

The first artwork I've ever commissioned that features a Pirate Elf is nearing completion.

Tiny Sullies are now the norm.

Zeke is going to get a hat.

I thought it would be fun to have them play against type.

(I sure am having an easy time posting)

I'm still snapping at people. Why am I so cranky?

Probably partly because the weather so far here has been disgusting.

Probably the idea of relaxing is foreign to me and I'm terrible at it. This was supposed to be a "fuck it" trip and I'm still going through the motions of trying to *do* things.

The guys are doing their own christmas too

Well, I just burned a bridge with an artist whose collaboration I deeply valued, and for no good reason.

Problem: my flight is in four hours and I'm being extremely productive.

I should just stay at the airport hotel and eat from the restaurant here. I mean, why not. Everywhere I go I'm "that guy". I can be that guy at a new place.

There. Inverting the colors will help me distinguish which account I'm signed into.

Nonstop running around tomorrow trying to get things settled. Multiple appointments, getting packed, arranging transportation.

Then Tuesday is my flight and I just hope to god I can at least pleasantly dissociate for a week. Physical distance helps. I'm not swimming back no matter who emails me.

Especially when something's both gift art and unprompted it seems slightly unethical to go waving it around with my little blurbs.

I get greedy sometimes. You guys bring these characters to such amazing life that I feel like I know them, that they're MY people.

Was I wrong to suggest that you don't HAVE to make a stink about everything you dislike? That in fact this is sometimes counterproductive—you give bad things free oxygen?

It's the reason I'm staying away from my main today.

It would be a phenomenally good idea if I finished up my work for Monday tonight, because I have errands to run tomorrow and even though Monday's a "work" day I'll most likely be preoccupied with getting ready for the trip.

I just can't get started.

I realize I have two "shamans" in my cast now and I appreciate that they're basically exact dipoles.

Doing joyless cartwheels

in the void

Wait I can do the other icon here
December 13, 2025 at 2:33 AM
HOLY MOLY the tests from last night passed!

I'm so happy I could cry. I am officially ahead of schedule ahead of fucking off to Oahu.

It looks like I'll be adopting another character, assuming no one else bids on it. This is in a "supporting the artist" capacity I guess.

They'll be a petty nemesis for Bryce. The head of the Santa Fermata conservatory.

No sleep. I didn't take my meds and I don't know why. Maybe I can still sleep for an hour but I doubt it.
December 12, 2025 at 3:29 PM
I'm going to bed early. Today was shit. I hate December.
December 12, 2025 at 4:47 AM
It's all dramatizing. I did this to myself, I rectified it, and anyway I'm not coming back until 2026 assuming a sea turtle doesn't eat me
December 11, 2025 at 8:09 AM
11:40pm. Just about done.
