So a year has come and gone, along with the first decade of the new millennium. I blew a gasket when I realized that 1990 - my birth year - was 20 years ago. I wasn't born until December, but it is still enough to freak me out. If I somehow live to be 100, I have already lived out 1/5th of my life, if not more since hitting 100 isn't likely.

Any way, with the new year comes the creation of various resolutions, of which I have many. One includes actually using this old account, and updating it on a regular basis (seeing as my last journal was written during August of '06, and my last Deviation was submitted September of '08). Obviously stirring up some activity would be good, and it also gives me a greater incentive to regularly archive new work (which means I can update my portfolio on a moment's notice if the need arises).

I'm trying to keep my life better organized, so hopefully that will also mean a) more personal work, and/or b) opening commissions. The latter would be very iffy, seeing as I am horrendously picky when it comes to work for friends/family and clients (meaning it would take longer to do), but we'll see.

Any way, we'll see how long this journal stays up before my next update. Hopefully it won't be another five years, haha!
