Things have mellowed down to a dull roar recently. I've adjusted to living at home for the most part, Borleo and I are still friends, and I'm still working on drawing. With any luck, things will calm down further very soon.

I'm probably going to be posting some new stuff shortly...trying some experiments and whatnot.

Well, after a 4 year relationship, Borleo and I have broken up. I will be moving back home, out of this apartment, and trying to repair what's gone wrong with my life, while he makes necessary repairs to his. Our friendship isn't over, but for now, we need to not be in the relationship.

It hurts. More than I could ever imagine.

Maybe down the road, when we're a little more grown up, we can see each other again. Maybe not. I did everything I could for him, and not enough for myself. Shame on me for that, but I was too in love to know any better.

I'm still in love with him.

Thats why it hurts so.

The move went well. I'm settled in for the most part. I have internet, and I seem to be in OK shape money-wise. Its a good start. I miss mom and I miss my cats, but thats minor things in the universe, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm hoping my luck continues to hold out. It has the tendancy to bite me in the ass when I least expect it.

In celebration, I'm posting a wallpaper I was working on while I had no net. Enjoy!

Well, this Saturday I'm moving out of my parents house and into an apartment with and . I haven't really talked about it too much here, but I'm looking forward to getting the hell out of this place and making a life for myself.

This means several things. For one, it's probably going to be a while before I can update again. For 2, I'll most likely have to get a second job, which will further mess up my schedule.

HOWEVER, there will be new arts coming. I promise.

Wish me luck, and see you on the flip side!

A friend of mine has died.

Its funny, that I've been told that the friends you make online are somehow less than the ones you make in real life.

This is a lie.

One of my friends in Star Pirates, a moderator and leader, passed away recently. He was killed in an accident at a construction site.

My heart aches for him. Geoffery de Lysander, you will be missed. May the stars guide you forever.
