Of course I manage to stub my toe into everything ever. This is gonna be a hell of a healing process.
The large wound on my arm was rough, but didn't render my hand useless.

At least I don't have to drive anywhere anytime soon.. one of the few downsides of driving manual.

Got up because I couldn't sleep, was going to do something relaxing for a little while to shift the gears, but ended up brushing my foot up against a very sharp object (stupid broken tile leaned up in the walkway) and removed a significant chunk of skin from my little toe.

Not quite 'relaxing.'

Vivid colors on a sheet of 17x14" piece of bristol paper. Colored pencils and markers.

Got some microscopic touch-ups, but otherwise is done.
Haven't figured out if it's got a specific position, portrait or landscape. Intentionally nebulous, I guess.

Will add to the old ko-fi shop later.
Onto the next art project โ˜†

Anyway. Reposting older art for the heck of it.

Haven't seen all of Creature Commandos, but I like GI Robot, so I did a quick digital paint of GI Robot.

Never did master the art of not overthinking or overanalyzing things.
It's all still a huge variable, but the reality is - this might rip my entire universe in half, and as a result, it feels as though I'm preemptively mourning the loss of a big part of life.

Anyway. Here's to rum and doing dishes.

Jfc.. I sometimes hate sitting on things that would take about a week to thoroughly explain for anyone to understand where it's all coming from.

I don't do it often at all anymore, but goddammit I need a drink.

Well then.

I've got yet another new catastrophic thing to add to the maelstrom of crap that is juggling the chaos.

Excuse me, I think I need to scream and tension-wretch.

Fell asleep while watching a Super Mario World video and ended up in a mash-up of SMW and Stranger Things dream.

throwback to that time Lego made a scientist-me, since it popped up in my memories from over a decade ago.
a friend tagged me with this critical information and i later went on a drunken shopping spree and added it to my collection.

That's.. certainly.. a combination.

The cat just chirped, got spiky - fat tail and sideways run, the whole thing.

If you aren't going straight to your destination, let the person anticipating your arrival know. Don't lead off with "I'm headed to your place." Instead, "I'm on the road, probably going to make some stops, then let you know when I'm headed there."

Otherwise I'm out here getting bit up by insects.

"You look too young to know what writing a check looks like."

Hahah... I think it's just the blur of the webcam and selective lighting making me look less burnt out.

Gotta take accountability for my screwing up (right, like getting sick multiple times and laid off as a result, prioritizing keeping the lights on, and water running was entirely my fault).

The biggest thing I'm worried about is they're going to be really mean about it, which when said out loud..

Of course the neighbors were right in the line of sight, so I probably looked like a creeper.

Was hoping for hummingbird moths at the corn plant while I was out. Haven't seen any and the flowers aren't gonna be around much longer โ˜น๏ธ

Semi out of focus image of the moon. The line across the screen is whatever various communications lines stretch across roads. The brightness of the moon has given it a distorted halo, kind of looks like an eye.

The universe has a quirky way of helping me keep my head just barely above water, but I am grateful for what/whomever that benevolent being may be.
Thank you for not letting me completely drown. It's another opportunity to keep pushing onward.

Wrist and eye break.

Kicking myself for not taking a picture of the line art before diving in >_>

My reaction when they put the song I assumed they would in the new season of Stranger Things.

Finding fun new ways to break apps.
If I minimize/mini-player YT with a video playing, pull down notification bar and tap on any notification to something in-app, it'll restore full-window YT but stays on current video but without any button function.

Slow progress, though it's functioning more as a time filler when brain can't focus on anything else.

(this current bout of ongoing brainfog is not fun)
