Today I am Drawing Elephants

By -
Hello again! Today I took time out of my very busy schedule of sitting in a desk and doing nothing for 8 hours (Plus the extra two hours in OT) to draw some elephants. They are intended to just be rough sketches of paintings I want to do later on, but I think my skills are definitely improving from drawing dogs the last little while. I just hope I can actually paint them as good as I can draw them, I am not that confident though. I am thinking of buying some cheap canvas panels to practice on before I get to me real stretched canvas painting. I have come up with four ideas that I think will be really cool, if I can paint them that is. But canvas panels are cheaper than I remember so I do have some hope for practice. I just need the finished products before Christmas. Preferably dry, since I am planning on using oil paints on all four paintings. So we will see if those get done in time.


Today I weighed: 207 lbs


Yesterday I ate:
> 4(?) small pancakes
> 3 or 4(?) vegan cheese filled breadsticks
> Pasta and vegetable stir fry


I am probably going to draw some more dogs for the rest of today, so that is exciting!


Stay Cool.

Relationships

I love Rok but he doesn’t always make it easy. I remind him several times to blog, and he still doesn’t. I ask a serious question and he responds with a joke. He does things very slow when I prefer them to get done quick. Now don’t get me wrong, I definitely have fault in this too. I get easily frustrated when he does a small thing I don’t like. I rush him too often when he is taking a reasonable amount of time. I often ask him to do five tasks and when he hasn’t done two of them I get upset with him. We have talked about these things to each other and have come up with solutions in order to make our relationship work better. But most of these issues boils down to small things like: He plans to blog but time gets away from him. He is just thinking of an actual serious answer but wants to immediately break the tension. He is used to a life of leisure and does things over a longer period of time. On the other hand I also have reasons for why I get frustrated, because I am not used to do...

Praise Dog

Alu and I have toyed with the idea of starting a cult centered around dogs. We love dogs and have gone into detail conceiving of a dog heaven, presided over by a giant, benevolent buddy. All dogs go to this heaven and live forever in eternal goodness. All humans end up on this plane as well, however only those who have been good to dogs will be happy there, playing with dogs and doing whatever else they'd like for all time, as long as that does not involve harming dogs or other animals or people. Those who are deemed worthy will be able to summon objects at will, however said objects will disappear the moment they would be used to harm others. All who dwell in dog heaven are accompanied by a designated dog buddy. Those who have been good to dog in life will live in harmony with their respective buddies as well as the buddies of others. Meanwhile, those who, in life, have shown malice toward dog will be assigned their least favorite dog as a buddy. This buddy will disregard his ...

A Life of Procrastination

By -
A few days ago, I had a neat little idea for a puzzle game, so I've been drawing up rooms that might be used in such a game. I've never learned to program, but I have a few friends who have been doing it since we were in elementary school just because they thought it was neat. I'm often envious of that fascination with a field that's so widely needed, but I've also found it interesting that they have trouble thinking of things to build with that knowledge. I have one friend in particular with whom I used to talk all the time about what kind of game we could make, with me generally providing a general idea for a game and some overarching design ideas, and him considering how that could be built. Along with another friend who is interested in a game's story and lore above all else, one who has a penchant for art in almost any visual medium and his brother who has a love for music, we could have formed a good basis for a game development company, if not for our un...
