I listened to this song for the first time as I was intimate for the first time with my lovely. A more perfect moment is hard to imagine.
I've hidden myself away in a different account. Only two people have tracked me down. Of course, since I've been working full time and have found myself wrapped up in playing WoW with my lovely, I haven't gotten much of anything done. Nothing notable, anyway. As always, I've got plans for the future. Anyway, nevermind. You can find me here. Not here anymore.

Journal time. And maybe you were starting to think i had already taken off. Maybe in a sense. Everyone shouldn't be surprised. Sometimes you've just gotta change things.
Golly willikers, i've seen some times on this account. Remember when i finished otherside? It's the first comic i've gone all the way through with. Most times i don't even think about that. Let's move on, shall we? Entirely too much suspense here. Ending it now.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Like I said, there are some pretty blatant clues that I'm leaving you folks if you're smart and willing. I'll probably check this account every now and then. I'm certainly not leaving it because I want to ditch you folks. Why the teasing track-me-down then? I dunno, maybe it'll be fun. So if you do figure it out, feel free to watch me again. Otherwise you can note me and I'll link you. Anyway, I needed a change. This fetus isn't shutting down production, just moving behind a vehicle that's more fun.
This link goes nowhere!
It's been fun. Now I require some fine mexican food.
See ya.

By gordy, these pageviews just keep on coming and I've done nothing to earn them.
School's getting back in. As a result, I'm very busy and slightly cranky.
Jark's not returning. Even the original outcry seems to have been a brief and passing fad that is now being swept under the rug with the rest of the deal.
Forget it.
This account is on a limited lifespan.

Compare this: [link]
and this: [link]
and imagine how much looking at that progress makes me giddy.

For all my problems with popularity in dA and the ass backwards way art gets to the front page(daily deviations aside), I have to say, well, type rather, that I probably would have stopped making this crap long ago if it weren't for dA. So I can forgive the fact that every day there's some schlocky simple way to get to the front page. Join groups, +fav everyone's stuff, draw hentai/take photographs of any nude women, draw yaoi, furries, pregnant or severely overweight anime people/furries, anything having to do with JTHM or Zim, etc etc. It goes on and on and sometimes it annoys me that certain people can rack up hundreds of +favs when I'm lucky to get a few comments on my stuff, particularly when I make an effort to make things look good(something I didn't used to do. It went like this: Grab some pens and see what I can make in an hour with no planning whatsoever). It bothers me that that bothers me...because that's not what dA is about.

So what? Those people plagued with popularity have so many comments that it's difficult for them to even visit every person that comments on their art. They get more comments than they can read, so they have to just "select all" and "mark as read". These are things I'm thankful that I can do, because I wouldn't have enough time to go through galleries or respond to comments if I had that many. Between that and knowing that I've improved more drastically in my time on this site than any other time in my life, I've come to an important realization:
I'd rather be unpopular.

In that vein, I need to continue with "the plan" outlined in my signature. You all know the drill by now, and if you don't, then click in my signature.
