What I'm doing now! (or at least 'now' by when this page was last updated).

General

  • Trying to go outside more. It's spring, sweater weather (most of the time), hopefully all the rain won't wash all the flowers away before I see them lol.
  • Looking to get my driving permit again. 3rd time's the charm right? The thing is I know how to drive & am ok with driving for the most part, it's the test itself that's nervewracking.

Just Happened

  • Went to a local queer meet. Had some nice chatter about the arts, met some new people. It's good to get out of the house more.

Art & Projects

  • I have access to an airbrush now. I don't know how much I'll use it, but it won't hurt to at least experiment with it. Likely just basecoating for now.
    • I've been watching a lot of table top mini painters while looking at airbrush tutorials. The craft looks so cool. I don't see myself getting into TTRPGs though, so I guess I'll just watch from the sidelines.
  • On the fence about getting another tablet. My monitor still works, but fighting with the cable's getting really annoying to the point I want to get a cheap screenless tablet to see if I'm able to switch back to that. If not, then I'll keep it around as a backup/portable option.

Gaming & Hobby

  • Finished reading Watership Down. It's a great novel about survival against all odds & is worth a read if you're into animal stories and are ok with the more violent themes (I'd say the violence level's on par with Warriors).
  • Got back into BMS. No major issues on linux yet, and I didn't rust as bad as I thought I would. Also made a few new result screen arts since I switched to a different theme.
  • Planning on getting Tomodachi Life: Living the dream. Not sure when though, but for now I'm trying to decide who I want to bring over from my 3DS islands. Like I want to leave room for new Miis, but also... Nat Tomodachi Life season 2. And also giving Miis that were added in later on in those saves more time to shine.
