January 5, 2026

Posted on January 5, 2026January 5, 2026 by

Oh! The date! Dang. I forgot to say happy birthday to my brother. 🤦 Thing to fix for tomorrow.

Today was back to work. It went okay! I have hope.

Writing is getting easier! I actually didn’t want to stop tonight, but the clock forced me to. I’m still procrastinating before starting, though, and I regret that it took me so long to begin. (Does that ever like, fully stop, though? I think all writers look around for household chores to do when the blinking cursor is intimidating).

I also doodled a Henry that looks like a stickbug in my sketchbook and then inked it, because that’s what we’re committing ourselves to in 2026.

Did you know: Henrys is bugs (like shrimps).

There may be fewer entries here now, but I’ll continue with the daily doodles. I think I’ve made friends with this journal and now I don’t have to keep touching it to make sure it exists.

      -_- Should’a worn the questionable bloody Iron Lung t-shirt to the office. My skulls and rib cages button-up was not enough to thwart the photographer on company photo day.

      All part of what I’ve termed “releasing myself from the torment nexus”. I have a lot of things I want to do, but I have a hard time finding/justifying/setting aside large swaths of time for any of them.

      So instead I’m giving myself permission to do them all in small bursts throughout the day.

      Here I am on week two, wondering if the little micro bursts of exercise that I’ve been doing are actually working and ah. Last week it was my legs that were mad at me. Today it’s my arms.

      Huzzah! It is, in fact, doing a thing!

      Also trying (again) to figure out how dramatic I want the lighting to be on this one.

      I am not a fast artist, and this is because I just… muck about, mostly. Eventually I hit the ‘eureka!’ moment.

      This one’s been eluding me for months.

      A drawing of Henry with his hood up, goggles on, and his respirator held in one hand. Behind him are flowers. Bright orange light is cast on his face, and the shadows are stark and pink.

      Y’know, I never draw Errick in any kind of mask. Masks are such a THING in Alpha Base, and he’s the commander. He should totally get one of my impractical cyberpunk designs.

      Not going to be beating the furry allegations with this one either, though.

      A cropped screenshot of a rough sketch of Errick in a helmet and mask. The reference pane shows a loon with its beak open.
