Everyday Accomplishments

I started bursting out laughing earlier because of my dad.

I have what I consider to be a sort of word association thing, possibly connected to my suspected autism. My dad just goes along with it.

I told my dad about some letters I got in the post recently. One of which was a survey. Mentioning the survey made me think of Family Fortunes.

I randomly blurted out "Our survey said!" and my dad replied with an immitation of the negative buzzer sound!

My dad sometimes makes me laugh so much that I struggle to breathe!

 I've almost finished painting up my Reavers for Underworlds. It's just nice to be chipping away at my backlog after not really getting anything done throughout January. Dunno how they'll perform on the table since only one of them can take a hit despite them all being psychotic marauders who dedicate their lives to fighting?

This is one of those rare occasions where I have set myself a challenge.

I need to learn the lyrics to all of these Oasis songs:
Champagne supernova
Cigarettes and alcohol
Some might say
Live forever
Don't look back in anger
Wonderwall
Roll with it
Whatever

I'll probably update you all on how I'm doing.

I already know Wonderwall pretty well.

 Not only did I find the two new Warbands before Monday but the one that I ordered to arrive on Monday came today too. I'm loving these Wurmspat but these Mantrappers are just straight-up naughty. They're such expert hunters that the opponent automatically becomes their prey.

The downside is that I had to call in sick because of this bug I've got and I haven't had the energy to really enjoy them besides a quick look at the sprues to see their sculpts. Nothing I'm eating is settling in my stomach and then I'm stuck trying to not throw up until I slip up and need to.

I've been really happy recently.

I've found that when I'm doing art while listening to music, I feel like I'm in my happy place.

I'm in paradise and I haven't felt like this for ages.

My amateur commentary career is starting to go places.

I enjoyed myself at my karaoke group today.

Everyone in the group has the time to sing two songs each, but we take a 10 minute break before the group starts taking turns again to sing their second song.

For my second song, I couldn't decide between two songs that I liked. I told my friends that one of the songs I wanted to do was 8 minutes long.

Everyone cheered me on to do the 8 minute one! They loved it.

 So, my Instagram is just pictures of the miniatures I've painted at this point but I've finally gotten to 100 followers and my most liked picture just hit 50. It's not much but it's nice that people are keeping tabs on me to see the things I'm painting.

It has only really been a themed blog/page since, like, October and I've only been using a light box since January. The page is mostly there so that I can see how far I've come since I started, really. It's motivating. It's nice to be able to set myself challenges and have something to show for it without having to handle the miniature.

It's "chrissince94" if anyone fancies a browse?

just had a tooth out. it took less than 20 seconds, despite being a healthy tooth, and doesn't hurt some 6 hours later. also had a filling and a scrape so my teeth are the cleanest they've been in years

to only need one out, one filling and a scrape is p good for someone who's no been the dentist in 15 years

I managed to get a telemarketer not to call my dad's business for another week by claiming that the person in charge of the credit card machine fees was on vacation in China but unfortunately is being quarantined and stuck inside a hotel room due to the Coronavirus and no one knows when he'll be back. The woman was shocked and I'm going to use this excuse next time she calls. This is one thing that the virus is good for.

I'm finally able to use cheat codes on Fire Red and Leaf Green with my Xploder.

Thanks, DaveTheTrainer.

A couple days ago, I drew a cake-themed parody of Exodia, the Forbidden One. It started off as a one-off joke connected to one of my characters (she really likes cake), but I was sleep-deprived and decided to take the design seriously enough to draw it in greater detail. It could stand to be polished up a bit, but I'm more than happy with the result! (It's a huge image, or I'd have just uploaded it in the art forum)

Side note: I wonder why Exodia isn't parodied more often in anime and manga. None I could find with a casual search, at any rate. Guess he's not really relevant out of Yu-Gi-Oh! or such? Or maybe it's budget-related?

EDIT: Tried Limburger cheese for the first time last week. It's not terrible... once it's been in the fridge for a day and you've gotten over the initial smell. I'm sure some purists might argue I didn't eat REAL Limburger, but not a competitive cheese-eater, so I wouldn't know. Either way, I'm checking it off my bucket list. Now, to obtain haggis...

EDIT2: Tried a mild redesign of one of my characters. Happy with the result at the moment, but dreading having to draw the new part a bunch of times when it comes to putting said character into a comic. ...Okay, "dreading" is strong wording. I'm just enjoying the current glow of having added something nifty to his design.
