I’m Back At It
I’m finally getting back to work on some things. Also an update on what all is going on and such.
Trying to Get Back to It
An update on what’s been going on this past month (it’s mostly been shitty). There are a few bright spots though, I guess.
All Work & All Play
All work and all play make for an interesting day. I have a bunch of stuff I need to get done, and have gotten a lot done, but I also want to play in the world of Jedi: Survivor some more and will do so as well.
Non-Spoiler Review: Star Wars Jedi Survivor
Here I have written my “non-spoiler” review for the new Star Wars game “Jedi: Survivor”.
Status Update 007
Today I feel so-so due to some health problems and some very stressful things going on right now. Still, I am trying to work through it all. Right now, I am working on some game reviews for this blog while Abbey has the zoomies.
My Heart is Full
After the heartbreaking loss of Aayla, I thought I would never love again. I was thankfully wrong.
Status Update 006
Today I reopened my heart and welcomed home my new long hair chihuahua, Abbey Rose. I still miss Aayla terribly, but thanks to Abbey I am also filled with joy and no longer feel alone.
A Clean Slate
I have been cleaning both offline and online. I’m trying to also clean up my grief a little and reopen my heart.
Status Update 005
I’m still in mourning for Aayla. I’ve never felt a pain like this before. I keep looking for her and she’s not here… and never will be again. The pain is more than emotional, it’s a physical pain too that is making me feel ill. I am a shell of my former self.
A Little About Everything
How is everyone and everything at this moment? I’ll try to get things up to date with this little status report.
Project Spring Clean
It’s time for another major round of Spring Cleaning! I’m now going to work my ass off to get my living area (all three rooms) as clean as I can possibly get them to be.
I Feel I Must Explain
I feel like I need to explain myself as to why I have decided that I can no longer keep Jojo. Here is the best that I can do to explain.
My Heart is Shattered
Yesterday, my beloved chihuahua, Aayla, who has been my constant companion for nearly 14 years… died. I’ve never known pain like this and I don’t know how to cope.
Status Update 003
Aayla isn’t feeling well today. She’s acting strange and not eating. She just doesn’t look right either. I’m so worried for my baby. I’ll be taking her to the vet in the morning. For now, I’ll try to lose myself in my art and video games before I can start crying.
Status Update 002
At the moment I am working on some new artworks (fan art, mostly) while Jojo plays on his play gym with some new foot toys and Aayla is snoozing by my feet. All in all, a good day so far.
Our Playful Pixie
A gallery post for all of my favorite photos of our cute little Pixie-poo. It’s a good thing she’s so cute, she’s always getting into trouble!
My Beloved Aayla
A gallery of photos of my beloved little chihuahua named Aayla. She was my constant companion and best friend for so many years. I miss her terribly.
In Memory of Chi-Chi
In memory of our first chihuahua, Chi-Chi, whom we were lucky enough to have in our family from March 2002 to November 2015.
Mission Statement What is This Blog About?
The point of every personal blog I’ve ever had on the internet has always been to document my progress as I attempt once again to get my life on track with some fun diversions along the way. I talk about my health and my work along with all of my hobbies in a way that’s (hopefully) entertaining for both you and me. Regardless of whether it is entertaining for me, or you, I have always found writing these blog entries to be very therapeutic. Even if few ever read these words, it still benefits me to write and continue to create this blog. So, I shall continue to publish this blog for as long as I feel like it, whenever I feel like it and sometimes even when I don’t feel like it.
So, who am I? I am a 38-year-old digital artist from a little town in Southern Illinois who has a penchant for blogging. In addition to being an artist who works in the niche 3D digital art industry I am also bipolar, a hobbyist photographer, and an obsessive gamer who also mods the crap out of said games. I blog about all that and a little more here @artistinwonderland.art I have literally been blogging since 1999 when I got my first at-home internet connection. I quickly taught myself to code html websites and later on learned WordPress. And now here we are. Below are some of the topics, features, and more that you can find or will find on this blog:
Thank you for Visiting Please Come Back Soon
