Bleh weather, and other things
Dec. 7th, 2013 09:07 pmSo, the weather outside is frightful, lol. I'm sure a lot of you are experiencing this ice storm thing, and I hope everyone's safe! I'm surprised we haven't lost power or internet, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed through this next bit of ice coming in tomorrow.
I'm already going stir-crazy, though. I'm used to taking a few walks a day, at least, trying to do 5 or more miles a day. But now I'm just stuck inside, with my plenty of food and water and electricity and internet, poor me, haha. I probably won't be able to get out until Tuesday or Wednesday.
Art block! is kind of killing me. If I could art, I wouldn't be so frustrated. Or maybe it's the other way around; it often is. I was going to livestream tonight, but earlier today I had my tablet out and I just kind of drew blobs on it, then pushed it away in disgust. So I'd prefer to not do that in front of an audience, lol.
I have been podficcing, though :) I ordered a new mic from Amazon, and it was really shitty, but i was so ready to record things that I got out my old mic and found an excellent story to work on. I already recorded it once, but I rushed it and it was painfully obvious (my mushmouth can be hilarious, but not so much if you can't even understand the words that are coming out of my mouth.) So I'm recording it again, and I have the first part done, and I'm MUCH happier with it now. I'm sure the first read-through didn't hurt, what with getting me familiar with the fic. I'll probably record the second part tomorrow. My first longfic!
I can't wait to get my art mojo back though, because I have a commission I need to finish and some RBB art to work on soon, plus I just love to DRAAAAAW and it makes me happy.
So how are you guys doing? Tell me things. tell me your favorite podfics, tell me what you're doing to not be bored in all this terrible weather, link me to a short fic to try to record, tell me your favorite current fics! I know spn_j2_bb had a lot of great ones, and I was too busy moving to really pay attention to much.
In short, I'm boooooored, talk to me! haha
