Its been some many months since I have sent out an update; so I apologize to any faithful followers that I have left.
Now for the updates!
September '09: I got married! I have a new last name and have debated changing my DeviantArt page to reflect it. However, I couldn't think of anything that I liked besides my actual new name... and even then I wasn't sure if I wanted to leave my whole watch and watchers list behind! (and managing two accounts might be a pain...) So I renewed my subscription under this name, and I have a year to decide if I should change. (thoughts and opinions welcome!)
Anyway... the whole getting married/planning a wedding pretty much consumed 2009, so I apologize for the lack of updates and responses.
Christmas brought new love into my life:
www.wacom.com/intuos/medium.ph…Yes, a new new new new tablet. Such a wonderful and unexpected gift for me under my inlaws' tree. It is magical in all the right places. Given that, I have a spare tablet that I don't quite know what to do with. I'm actually not certain on its condition; I updated to Snow Leopard (OS 10.6) and it started not working properly. I am not sure whether it was dying or if it just needed an updated driver. Friends and relatives get first dibs if you want my old tablet, but no guarantees that it is in primo condition.
And speaking of Christmas, my hubby got me some more RAM for my laptop which has greatly excelled my Photoshop power. It loads and saves much more readily and I highly recommend such an upgrade to those struggling to load PS.
I don't like to get too personal or detailed with journals on the internet, but I'll give an interest-update.
Currently Reading:
(Well, just finished...)All of the Twilight novels. Took me a week. Not too bad, I see the appeal, though not as rich and dark as Rice's work; but certainly a bit more family-friendly. I never bothered to pick teams, but that is probably because I didn't have to wait and dream in between the novels.
Currently Watching:
Glee, The Office, House, 30 Rock. Yes, I am watching network sitcoms. Chalk this up to not having cable, or caring too much about TV in general. I think I watch Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune the most, really. (But I'd rather not get too suckered into television...) Also, been going through our copies of Northern Exposure, we are into Season Five. (only one left to go!) A really charming show. If you are into watching shows off of a DVD, its a cute one. Fish-out-of-water character-driven comedy with lots of sexual tension, witty scripting, and bad early-90's neckties.
Currently Drawing:
Exploring commissions. You may see some random stuff pop up from me, as I have been taking some very very cheap/free commissions from users on Gaia in my bribe shop. Let me know if you are interested.
Okay, I think that's about it. Hope you are all doing well, and have a fabulous year of the tiger!
