I've been shot

Love it when Z1L looks tough/slightly dangerous (SEX BEAST SEX BEAST).

Fanart: Chibi h/c. Hei Pao Shi is into it.

I fucked up the Fu Meng Po portrait and I had to start completely over with new base images. After reprinting, I got most of the texture work done on his shirt. I try not to get too upset when this sort of thing happens--it''s kind of expected, really. If I don't art on a regular basis I tend to forget steps (there are a lot of steps in my style of art) and once I've gone to the next one, there's no going back. I'm a little sad that some accent images I'd saved for years for ~something special~ got sacrificed in the process, though. Goodbye, beautiful Ace of Hearts image! ๐Ÿ˜ญ I put about two hours of work into what I hope will be the final piece. Probably twelve to fifteen more hours to go. We'll see if I can make that April 11 deadline.

I also received my first vaccine shot yesterday afternoon. Didn't want to mention it earlier because I was fully prepared for them to turn me away. "Sorry, you don't actually qualify" or "What do you mean you don't have an insurance card?" etc. I got the Moderna version, so my follow-up is near the end of April. It was at the local community theater, which I have serious beef with, so I got a chuckle out of the fact that they managed to get me to darken their door, after I vowed never again several years ago.

In a wonderful (rare) stroke of luck, nearly all my local friends got or will get their shots within a week of mine so we'll be able to hang out indoors and hug each other in May. I still haven't wrapped my brain around that, and tbh I'm not thinking about it too much because I'll start crying.

When I left after my fifteen minute wait, they offered me a sticker, but I declined until I saw it.

Oh, theater nerds. ๐Ÿงก

Last night I dreamed a friend and I were partner dancing (two step, if you're interested) and it felt so good. I can lead (rock-step) Swing and verrrrry basic Two Step, and follow Cha-Cha and Waltz (as well as the other two that I can also lead). I am so looking into local partner dance events as soon as it's safe(ish) for things start up again. I've missed partner dancing for waaaaay too long. Show of hands, who wants to partner dance with me when it's possible?

eta: Wow, I thought I was doing fine post-vaccine but damn I just got hit with a wave of fatigue so intense I can barely focus my eyes. I'm going back to bed for a while. Ooof.

eta2: Took a 90-minute nap, made lunch, internetted a bit and now I'm ready for another nap. Trying not to think about what this means shot #2 is gonna be like. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
