Sometimes, there are just no good words to describe how you feel when things happen. I read that Mr. Crikey himself has passed. While he didn't have a big impact on my life, he certainly did have an impact on a lot of people - and for that, he should be mourned. He died doing what he loved, and that's all any of us can ask for.

There's something to be said for doing what you love - and something all of us should strive for.

Since work deigned it necessary to get me a fancy-schmancy BlackBerry 8700g, I figured I might as well do something useful with it, like post a journal entry at dA.

In other news, I'm studying for the last half of my A+ cert. Yay.

The commission I had been working on for the last two weeks got corrupted. Two weeks of work down the toliet. Needless to say, I was mildly peeved. Okay, I was really pissed. Ever since I upgraded to version IX.5 of Painter, it has given me nothing but issues. Rahr!!!

There are also People who have insulted and slighted the man I love. They will learn to rue that error.

My camera is being neglected - it stares at me saying "Don't you love all my megapixely goodness?"

So I'm digging through my "make me pretty" photo files and uploading stuff.

In other news...my mother has finally joined the 21st century and has a computer so now I may chat with her on IM. Of course, as mothers do, this means that she may now proceed to nag at will.
