feeling: uh...
listening to: hide - Goodbye
BAHAHA! I finished the playlist! In yo' face, pathetic excuse for a computer!
Kaede's not gonna get done though. >_< All that's left is a couple areas of shading and a background, but I have no idea how to go about either of them. Oh, and hair extensions (I assume his crimson curls are extensions...), but those shouldn't take toooo long... I mean, I finished the entire black portion of the hair yesterday evening, and this will be just a couple curly strands on another layer... Anyway, I had given myself until 11 am on Sunday (tomorrow) to finish it, since that would be midnight on his birthday, but... not gonna happen, unless I don't sleep or leave the room for the next 18 hours. And I don't see that happening because the nephew's here today.
I know, I talk about this thing a lot lately. Only because this is one of those things I'd actually be really proud of if I had plenty of time to work on it AND still had a chance of actually ever finishing it. I will finish this one within the next couple days, but it won't be quite the quality I normally go for. Not compared to... say, the Fu-ki I started working on back in spring and gave up on after Fanime because I decided it just wasn't him anymore after actually meeting him. It looked enough like him and the quality was among the best of any art attempt I've ever done... but it wasn't Fu-ki. All those hours... *sigh* This Kaede is... interesting, though. Something I know a lot of people have thought about (especially while his hair was still red... ahem), but that hasn't appeared in his fanart section yet. It might freak him out at first :P... but it'll definitely stand out. I'll post it here after I know he's seen it.
Anyway... we took the nephew to Columbus today, specifically Aquarium Adventure, which was... an adventure. Let a two year old loose in the biggest aquarium supply store in the state, with just as many fully stocked specialty tanks (and ponds) scattered around on the floor as on wall/shelf display. Went to Toys R Us next and got nothing, and then to the huge thrift store in Great Southern where I picked up a stuffed leopard cub for myself. I get a new plushie for 4o cents to a dollar every time I go there. ^^ *heart plushies*
Just did a spyware scan and it found 27 spyware files and 42 traces. =_= Better than the 600+ it found before my computer went to the shop though, I guess. Clean now... again.
Back is still sore, but not as bad. And tomorrow my arms are gonna be sore from lugging the toddler around. And the rest of me is gonna be screaming from getting no more than 2 hours of sleep tonight, just like every other Saturday night. Can never seem to get to sleep before 4 am anymore, no matter how hard I try.
Oh well. As Mr. K says, I'm a vampire. XD
