The Realm

New icon. It's from the SpongeBob ep Procrastination where he has to write a report about what Not to do at a Stop light. When he finally gets around to writing he spends lots of time making a fancy THE to start his sentence wasting more time. I love this episode so much and this is what I am doing typing on LJ right now. This is bad haha. I'm trying to work on this year's card. I've drawn the sketch. I'll just spoil what it is. This card features my four apartment birds. Minion, Whitey, Emma and Nautica. But sometimes just opening the file in photoshop is an accomplishment in itself. I'm also trying to make art for some business cards. Luckily those will be easier because they will have art I've already made. I'm trying to promote my youtube channel in real life. I don't make any money on my channel but you all know I always share interesting things and more people should know about it. Especially Minion and my art ideas. I want those to be known and loved by the world. So these cards will feature Minion and Scary Fear. Funny enough I had to find my old art on my hard drive back ups. I remembered the Minion was around my birthday so when I pulled out June it was too soon. It did not exist yet. Then I pulled out Nov and well it was half done as I colored him for Christmas. Half the layers were missing. Arg still wrong time period. It's like time traveling. You have to keep these things in mind you might think you have the right month and year but things might not be totally complete yet. So by March of next year I finally had the right files to work with. I need to add a mic to Minion's wing. It's something I'd been meaning to do since last year's Christmas for this very reason. Talk about procrastination. INTJs are bad about it too but at least we finsh most of our projects even if it takes us 50 years.

So I've been working on wreaths still. Making Christmas ones because the people I plan to make gifts for told me Christmas was their fave holiday. So you can imagine I've had a hard time finding materials as we're in Christmas right now. One of these people is my vet. I want to make something nice for her. She's been amazing.

So Minion and Whitey got sick a while back. Minion seemed poofy and less energetic and so did Whitey. I didn't like the look of his poops. They got antibiotics and are doing better now, but a follow up is in order. I don't think Minion got rid of his bacteria completely. But you know how it is. You can't just get in as soon as you want. I don't go back til the 14th. That was the soonest. The only good thing about that is I have time to save for the bill. Oh and I'm getting a new parrotlet to replace Melville. I'm taking in my vet's pet that is mean nasty and wild. I don't care, I just need a breeder. He's all green. A normal and has a tumor on his wing but is healthy other wise. Again I just need a breeder. He acts normal and the tumor is benign so technically clean bill of health for him. And if it doesn't work out I can bring him back. I love that because I tell that to my customers when I sell birds. I don't care how old or how many years they can bring my babies back for whatever reason whenever.

Speaking of new babies I really REALLY want a black female doberman. Been watching lots of videos about them. Been looking at dog toys and supplies. But what's holding me back is two things. The lack of fence and that we can't put a dog door anywhere the way the house is set up. Though I'm home all the time I know I won't be at some point and then who would let her out to use the bathroom? Also right now we don't have room inside because we're still getting rid of stuff. I might do some major rearranging in the living room today to make room.

Well I've goofed off long enough. I better get back to working on something.
