First off: Happy Anniversary Taiki-kun! Today is Adam & I's 1 year, 10 month anniversary. O.O in 2 months it'll be 1 year. That's nuts. Lol. Anyways...

Monday night I got back from PrideFest, and for some reason, even though I gushed about it to Ree & Manda, I have no real inspiration to explain it all here. Do I want to? Yes.

But I can't compile my shit all together and whatnot. I just feel dead *sigh* Maybe it's the heat or something.

Let me just let you guys know, that I will be posting about Pride very soon. I promise, if I haven't done it by July 4th, it *WILL* be done on July 5th, I *PROMISE*.

I'm just very tired and worn out, partially from the trip, and partially just from life.

I'll give you guys a few details now though: It was BETTER than last years. I got to meet, hug, and get pictures with Ari Gold (the man is a fucking doll. Not only did he take time to talk and spend time with his fans, but even though there wasn't an enormous crowd like at normal concerts (I'd say there were probably about 100 people there), he still treated us as if we were New York City. He rocked the place and gave his all, even though the crowd was small. He's extremely talented and is *BETTER* live than on his CD (which I bought after only having heard 3 of his songs, he was that good). He's an amazingly talented artist, who's done so much for the GLBT community, and my mom thinks he's hot >.< ROFL. We all know, I'm not big on men, so I wasn't really into him, but he is, without a doubt, a beautiful man. I'd rather go shopping with him than date him though /nods.

Anyways. It was so cool to have Mikey there on day one and Mom there on day two. And while we didn't go early enough on day two to see the parade because we were up all night taking Mikey to Indiana for his dad to pick him up to take him back to Ohio, day two was still awesome because of mom being there and the Ari thing. Most of it was packed up by the time we got htere, but it was still absolutely amazing.

ROFL....alright, now I've spilled almost half of it, I'll write more later :)

*Hugs* Happy Pride Month, everyone!

No! I'm NOT DEAD!

*gasp* Lol. I know that's a real shock for some of ya'll, eh? Hehehe.

I'm still here. I've just been absorbed by the Pixel World and Ragnarok Online *giggles* So much fun.

Anyways....I'm truly not dead. I'm even going to be uploading shit-loads of stuff into my DevArt today. Woohoo.

*yawns* I'm working on getting my website re-made, and hopefully that'll turn out well. I have no idea how I'm going to do it but *shrugs* gotta try.

Anyways, PrideFest is in a week, and I'm disturbingly excited (just like everyone knew I would be) and I can't wait *bounce bounce bounce* WOOHOO...

I spent NINE hours on a pixel work last night. NINE HOURS. I'm redoing my modern elf series, somewhat. Last night wasn't a re-do. Last night was ONE FREAKING ELF. A Gypsy Elf. Buahaha. I mean, I am part Hungarian Gypsy, ya'll knew it was coming eventually!

Anyways...I re-did the face for her specifically but I'm going to use it with the others too, I believe.

Anyways, here she is. I think I'm going to go work on some other stuff. I'll try to post more later or tommorow.



The flower crown, is, obviously, from my bears. Adam suggested I use it. Hehe

Anyways, cya'll!

*sigh*

So, I missed my shrink appointment this week because the alternator on the car blew and we had to replace it....

But I did go to the doctors yesterday for two reasons:

A) They never gave me the diagnosis on my neuralysis
B) I'm holding water like a cactus (I have adema, and it's very obvious because my feet, ankles, and legs are swelled up like balloons...it fucking hurts).

So....we go in there, tell him this, and he perscribed water pills for me, then I asked for my neuralysis results (3 months I've been waiting), and it's official. I have a terrible case of carpral tunnel syndrome in both wrists. I have to wear wrist braces, then get steroid shots in my wrists, then have surgery. The doc only wanted to put me in one brace for now, so I chose the right one....but it was hurting yesterday....so I'm going to try it again and see how it goes. In a few weeks, I gotta get the left one.

So...anyways...he also put me on IBUProfen 800's (the over the counter ones are only 250's)....because of the pain in my wrists and from the adema.

*sigh* So now I'm on 6 medications (1 for hypothyroidism, 1 for irritable bowel syndrome, 1 anti-inflamatory for my wrist, 1 for the adema, and 1 for the pain.) Plus a fucking wrist brace. And I still don't know if I have PCOS or Cushings disease or WHAT is wrong with me.

I hate doctors sometimes.

Anyways, in other news...PrideFest is in 2 weeks. WOOOHOOO! *sigh* Though we ran out of money so I couldn't get my pants and the rainbow material, or a cool shirt to wear *sighs* Oh well...I guess I'll just have to live with it.

Also, I've gotten back into pixeling. I've made *thinks* 5 entirely new dolls in about the last 10 days. Wooohoooo! I intend to pump out more. Oh, I've also been making pixel Teddy Bears and selling them at @ Eden Enchanted. I used an outline from Rinconcito Dolls, pixel shaded it all in, edited the outline a bit, and voila. Teddies.

And....being Pride Month...what is Mandy going to do but make Pride Teddies?



I really like these little guys, so be nice to them *giggles* There will be an explanation site for them sometime today....I'll link them to it when it's done.

Anyways, not much is up. I'm going to go hang out at EE and whatnot.

Cya'll later.

Fancy bears! Sorry to hear about your woes - I really am. I find that IBS is really a blanket term for "uhm, we don't know what's wrong with you, but we're sure your system is irritable." - My fiance "has it" but nothing seems to "fix it" and the only prognosis he gets is "well..it's not appendicitis!"

My sister was also diagnosed with it when it turned out her gall bladder had ruptured.

Whoa. I'm..helping, aren't I? *looks around* - what I MEANT to say, is feel better soon..and thanks for applying @ Pixel Inc, eh? :) I'll see ya around there.

Happy Pride Month :)
