Minor updating.....

Things have been crazy and hectic lately that I haven't had a ton of time for artwork--as you can see. Between preparing for AnimeExpo (all the financial stuff), work being busy, personal life being a bit crazy, the weather not deciding what it wants to do and all that other nonsense, I don't have…

End of the year nonsense!

We're just about to end 2023 and head into 2024--I will be starting a grand watch of all Transformers things I have on media stuffs (VHS and DVD) for the 40th anniversary of the franchise. I plan to go see "Transformers ONE" in theaters, though we'll see how I feel about it because of the "star tal…

Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Hello all! It's the holiday season and my work schedule is pretty wonky this year, today is my last day of work before a holiday weekend and I won't be back to work (and wi-fi) until December 26th. The following week is similar, but my last day of work before that holiday weekend will be Friday--an…

Offline (generically) and Returning....

My apologies that I have been absent in the art posting department for awhile--perhaps three weeks at this point. This was something I had no control over, as...........well, my laptop got hit with malware. I was unable to open my anti-virus program whatsoever and without that I was going NOWHERE N…

Happy Thanksgiving

Or, at least, for those who may celebrate it! :) Regardless, I'll be offline for a few days because of the Library where I work being closed (and I don't anticipate having much time on Saturday when I do return to work--day after holiday closings are always insane!). I'll still be generically onlin…

Friday's "Learn About the Artist" #4

Sorry, running a little late this week, but why waste a title, right? Somewhere in the world it may still be Friday, too! XD It was a super-nice day yesterday and I decided to just be outside most of my day. :) This week I said I would talk about what I draw, what I like to draw and how I draw.....…

Friday's "Learn About the Artist" #3

Today’s journal about the artist (me) is about some of my favorite things and favorite fandoms. I think as anyone who’s on any kind of website right now, we all have our favorite fandoms. Some may generalize their favorite fandoms—such as saying “I like anime” or “I like furry art”. Some may say mo…

Friday's "Learn About the Artist" #2

Okay, so this one is being posted a little early--but somewhere in the world you'll be seeing this on Friday. XD I'm going to have a busy day tomorrow and probably won't be able to get online for very long at any point. So, I'm going to post this series journal today, instead. Welcome to a series o…

Friday's "Learn About the Artist" #1

I wanted to do a series of journals for all my new followers as well as old ones. In this world--there are people who stay private or hide behind a 'sona online. But sometimes there are people like me--who are exactly like they are in real life. So, I wanted people to learn a little bit more about…

Stay safe, everyone!

My odd PSA for today--for everyone that I consider friends and acquaintances........and everyone else who is a living being. Across the world, temperatures are rising at alarming rates. In the area which I live, we are setting record high temperatures today and tomorrow--with virtually no relief in…

So they say it's your birthday.......

As the old song goes. XD It be my b-day...........I'm one more year away from the big Five-Oh, so I'll let you do that easy math. ;p As for what I'm doing? Well, I'm working today--so I could take tomorrow off and have a 3-day weekend. :) Tomorrow, I may go to Village Inn and have breakfast--I have…

Happy New Year!

We’re in a new year, with new potential and new things. I hope everyone’s 2023 will be great. :D I have projects I hope to accomplish this year—including drawing weekly in a sketchbook. I have messages to get to—both here, personal e-mail and snail mail pen-pals…….hopefully I can get to them soon.…

Internet. I've become an elderly person........

Pokemon Scalet/Violet is coming soon.....

I was checking out the news on Serebii.net and they have a pre-review of the game, being given the opportunity to play some of it and see how the real gameplay is. You can check out their article here: https://www.serebii.net/scarletviolet/preview/ I'll admit--this has me a lot more curious than am…

A Brief Howdy!

To all that follow me--I'm not dead and I haven't stopped doing artwork or answering messages. laughs The past few weeks have been insanely busy in my personal life--a lot at home, at work and this is the month in which I have a billion doctors' appointments at all my various specialists. Whew--and…

What's up?

How are your lives? Are you holding up with the summer heat? Unfortunately, it seems as if we're going to be stuck with hotter and hotter summers as climate change becomes irreversible. There's some good intentions of wanting to fix it, but motivation may be what stops anyone from doing anything. A…

Random Pokemon Nonsense

So, while I have yet to find time to watch the new trailer, I did read the info that Serebii.net had up for the new PKMN Scarlet/Violet reveals. Hey, I'm all about a new dog-type Pokemon...........but I guess we're sticking with FOOD-KIND Fairy-type Pokemon. @_@ If it looks kinda like a bagel now..…

PKMN Scarlet/Violet new trailer

Welp...........what do you guys think? I can tell we are forcing a big multiplayer aspect on it............so, I admit I'm not hoping for anything better than Sword/Shield now. :/ To be honest, I wonder how much IS actual REAL gameplay footage and what isn't--I know there are times when on the scre…

Of course…..

Well, woke up this morning coughing a lot and used one of my at home COVID-19 tests—looks like I’m positive.

I've been at home on vacation this week and the internet (via cellular/mobile hotspot for me, since I don't have home internet) has been at its worst of all possible connections.

Pokemon Scarlet/Violet

What do you all think of the reveal? Speculations? Wants? Hopes? Needs? 1) I hope there will finally be a new Eevee evolution revealed. As I mentioned when I posted my Febupink Sylveon, it's been two Regions (generations) since we had our last Eevee evolution reveal. That's quite a while and we sti…

Life update 1-20-22. :)

How has your new year been going, all? Here.......well, it's really just a bit "meh" so far. It does feel nice to finally be caught up on my backlog of letters and e-mails. You would think I would be spending all my sudden free time writing or drawing........but for some reason, it doesn't seem to…

Whhhhhyyyyyyy technology.......!!! :<

This has not been my week for technology. A site I get prescriptions on needs me to update information........which they haven't asked me to do in five years. Do I remember my password? OF COURSE NOT. And rather than the standard, typical asking for an e-mail address.........it asks me for a userna…

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know I've been quiet lately--randomly faving more than commenting--but it's been a bit crazy here abouts. From work to an ER visit (that turned out to be a diverticulitis attack), I barely have time to do anything for myself, it feels like. wry laugh But for people in the U.S. and maybe in some o…

Random updates. 9-14-21.

I’m still alive in this world, but super-busy. I recently had a lot of changes in my life and one was upgrading my technology (phone and all) and I got an iPad. I’m actually attempting working on that right now to get used to how it works. The keyboard and number pad thing is a bit weird. XD The od…

Pokemon S/S mini-view. :)

Not a review technically.............and I intend no spoilers for this. But basically to give you my brief evaluation of the game. 1) It's EASY. It is an honestly easy game compared to pre-X/Y series games. For one, the EXP ALL is in-built into the game now. It's not a device to turn on and off at…

What is going on?

Is this site experiencing "spookiness" or something? @_@ I just had 10 submissions overnight and only 2 of them were actually NEW.

Pokemon News, 8-7-19.

It looks like another of my theories proved right............Regional Variants, as we now have the Galar version of Zigzagoon--with a completely new evolutionary form, Obstagoon, for this particular lineage. It makes sense this was made a Dark-type, though--it always struck me as a Dark-type with t…

The Pros and Cons of New Pokemon Reveals........

So, technical stuff has come out recently on "Pokemon Sword/Shield". I'm sure this will rile up people--and maybe even make some people happy. Some stuff feels it contradicts, some I think they're stating this now and may amend it later. 1) There are to officially be about 800 in the Galar PokeDex,…

Pokemon Sword/Shield revelation--your thoughts?

While I still have yet to look at everything (I had Jury Duty yesterday and, thus, limited internet time and was too tired to look at anything after the day was done).............I'd like to have other fans weigh in on what they think of the reveals. From my last journal: They're still making us wa…

So, Pokemon fans..........

What do you think of the news that just was announced? Are you happy for more mobile games, more mobile-enhanced content?

Tiny Heartwarming Story

I do work in a place where I see the strange and the bizarre, but also some very heartwarming things.

The conclusion of my TFCon weekend--all without commericals! XD So, today was a very tame day, as opposed to yesterday.

So, this is basically a day-and-a-half summary……..though not really a half, since (unless you paid the hefty sum of money to sign up for the all-day customization course) pretty much ticket pickup and any actual convention activities didn’t start until 5-6 p.m. on Friday night.
