OK.
Let's make it quick and painless - I'll be on a six month long break from commissions and most art related stuff.
(Technically, I'm already on a break for almost all of April, but it took that long to finish up all my past commissions).
So yeah, I'm sorry if you had a commission request, I probably should have written a journal earlier, but better late than, like, reeaaally late, aight?
For those who care, here's the long version:
So you probably know those people or are one of them who really can't stand going to the dentist?
It's like, they know they should go, but the longer they wait, the less they wanna go?
For me, it's the same thing with the eye doctor.
Somehow, I ended up being dragged kicking and screaming, uuh, I mean, I've mustered the courage to pay him a visit!
And it went down something like this:
"Now if you could please read the characters that you see on this chart."
"Uuumm, could we open the window, the lights pretty dim in here..."
"That's part of the test."
"Oh. Sooo... what order would you like me to read it in? *squint*"
"Left to right, top to bottom."
"Okay... *squint squint* I always get nervous when I'm doing these kinds of things so I might mess up a few times, but..."
"You can't actually see anything can you?"
"PWEASE DON'T GET MAD AT ME!!! T__T "
Apart from both my parents being blind as molebat, I wasn't very kind to my eyes either...
So I figured this as good a time as ever to make some changes.
First rule: no more commission work!
I love doing this stuff (and I love teh monee X] )! But it is very stressful...
So yes, I won't be doing any commission work. Until my next appointment at least (I hope).
Second rule: only one computer hour per day! (yea rite)
I have to sit in front of a computer on the job long enough, so I really shouldn't be sitting in front of that hellish machine at home... but it's so so alluring.... someone chain me to a pole please.
Alright, enough about me. How are you doing? Anything particularly terrible happened to you lately : ) (or good for that matter, but who cares about that, lol) ?
