I am an embarrassment to myself. Holy god. 

Had the day off work and I think it says something that I still have dA as my homepage after -- god, how many years??? My profile says seven. 

That's genuinely horrifying. 

You may have noticed that all my journals are gone. That's okay. Nothing important there, anyways. Most of my deviations are gone, too, in storage or straight up deleted. I sort of miss this community, except not really, because it reminds me of my idiot teenage years. Yeesh. Though, I always thought that adulthood would mean I'd have more resources with which to draw and be generally creative, but I don't. I lost my copics a couple years back and no longer have a scanner. I think my ex has my wacom?? Not that I ever had the time or patience to use it, anyways. Wherever it is, it's in a better place. TL;DR I don't have any real resources and therefore have zero means of uploading art nowadays. That's okay, though, because I do a lot of writing nowadays. Everything's pretty much on the backburner except for my fics and this little idea about a hedgewitch and missing shoelaces -- but you don't want to hear about that. 

So I want to restart. Though I may not miss the community, I do miss some people. I have no idea how to tag and shit in this new, shiny dA, so I'll just hope some of you lovelies are still around. If you are, hello! If not, I'll find out when I go through my watchlist and purge all the fandoms I'm no longer involved with. There are literal THOUSANDS of updates in the corner of my screen. It's slowly driving me mad. They will all disappear. ALL OF THEM. ANYWAYS. The point I was trying to get to here is that I want to get re-involved! Just have no idea where to start and what to post. Since, you know. No scanner and no digital art skills. 

OH. So my new icon is actually a pic of two of my mice, Tracer and Neo. They are both cute and precious. I've got seven: Tracer (the gold one, also the fatty), Neo (the feeder mouse, also the oldest), Triss (apparently TRSS AKA The Real Slim Shady, which I WAS NOT TOLD ABOUT UNTIL MONTHS AFTER TAKING HER IN. Light grey with darker ears and tail), Toast (also Snowflake and Marshmallow, depending. White with grey speckles and brown ears, nose, and tail), Mac (AKA Lil Mac, brown w a white stripe on her butt, also the second oldest), Bea (chinchilla grey fur, the asshole, also Tracer's sister), and Midna (brindled brown and gold, white stripe on her butt. The sleekest and also the youngest). No pics of them all together because Midna and Triss stand on Tracer and Mac curls up in dark corners. Midna's not my biggest fan, but Mac and Toast are. Mac, Toast, Triss, and Midna are about the size of my thumb. Neo's normal mouse size. Tracer and Bea together take up my entire hand, the ginormous fatties -- it's not entirely tub, I promise, they're just very long for mice, but seriously. They live in a glass terrarium (wire cage in the summer) and get spoiled rotten, probably. 

OH. I have a Flight Rising page, if anyone's interested!! I'm coffeeanon there. Be my friend!! I want to look at your pretty dragons!!!! 

So that's about it. I haven't gotten any less scatterbrained since I last posted here. If anyone wants to say hi, go for it. I'll probably reply, since I'm trying to start over rather than just disappearing entirely. Love you all!!
