Wuff, I've not been back on this site in the better part of a decade and I don't recognize any of it. I wonder how many of y'all still remember me. Since then, I've graduated college, found a job, and moved out on my own. My paintbrushes lay unused, my rock polisher is gathering dust in my parents closet, and I haven't written anything more flowery than an instruction manual lately. So what the heck am I doing back here?


Well, turns out living alone in the middle of a pandemic can be mind-numbingly dull and depressing. This last week I tried to escape from the routine by joining my family for a little vacation. I didn't want to be without some technology, so I grabbed an old laptop that I thought was still working and brought it along. I found it filled with the pages of a story I'd long since abandoned and forgotten.


I read it. The characters were overpowered, the plot was unclear, and parts of it were just cringey as all hell. And worst of all, it stops after thirty chapters. But somewhere in there, I thought I saw a story worth telling...if only there was someone willing to tell it.


So, I started writing again...from the beginning. Will I get any further along than I did last time? We'll see.

Well, I've been dead on here a LONG time. But I still have this account, so I should use it.

If any of you are still actively watching me, you may recall that at one point I was interested in gem carving, even offering gemstone commissions. Well, I've started back up again. My rock tumbler is running 24 hours a day, and I've fixed up my other tools as well. Soon I will start posting different polished stones on here, and offering some for sale to any interested parties.

My first batch will consist of irregularly-shaped, tumble-polished stones. Polishing will be complete in approximately 2 weeks.

Update/3DS code

1 min read
Well, back in college again. Taking Software Engineering, Computer Networking, Database Technology, and Business Ethics this semester. So far they all seem much more interesting than last semester's classes, even the ethics course.

Haven't drawn or written anything in a very long time. May get into it again, may not.

Finally picked up my copy of Pokemon X a few weeks ago. For anyone who may have an interest, my 3DS friend code is 3351-5076-4608.
Even if you don't have a Pokemon game or don't want to play with me, I'd still appreciate any new friends, as in-game items are unlocked regardless.

Summertime

1 min read
So, it's summer now. Has been for nearly a month, but I'm a lazy journal-er.

Grades for the spring weren't spectacular, but I passed everything, so I don't need to take any of those useless classes over again.

Still working as a driver for the bagel place, about 8-10 hours a week.  Beyond that, I don't really know what I'll be doing this summer. Will likely be spending a few weekends down in Williamsburg with family, doing odd jobs and possibly squeezing in a little fun at Busch Gardens or someplace. Will spend time looking for a second job or internship, something with more resume value than bagels. May end up taking summer courses at a community college or someplace else.

Recently I've developed an interest in aviation, so much so that I'm considering changing my career path. Hopefully time will tell if it's something I'm truly passionate about, or just something that appeals to me but I end up abandoning when it gets too hard. (like my art)
