Ow... x_x

Sooo....my right thumb and my left ring finger hurt like a BITCH. Whyzat, you ask?

I was over by the gerbils' cage last night, and Willow/Oz's cage and Rosa/Chii's cage are usually right next to each other on the floor. Well, I had the lids off both their cages, and I was holding Rosa. Willow starts hopping around in her cage, and eventually, manages to grab ahold of the top of it. Then she falls into Rosa/Chii's cage. Which still had Chii in it. I sit Rosa down onto of Gotti's cage, and go to reach down in Chii's cage to get one of them out before they realize that there's another, unknown gerbil in the cage with them. As soon as I put my hand it, then realize. And they're latched together in a gerbil ball-o-death. I manage them apart, without one or the other taking a large chunk of the other one. Now, here's the fun part. Gerbils will -fight to the death- over their territory. Which usually means they'll let of when the other one stops moving. Now, by this time, I had them in opposite cages (Chii wound up in Willow's and Willow wound up in Chii's), but they realized that the other 'gerbil' (read: my hands), was still moving and not dead. What does that mean? It means them latching their angry little teeth into -my- flesh until I can get the thought through my head to stop moving so they'll let go. x_x

So, my ring finger is swollen, and still hurts -very- much to move it. And my thumb just hurts on the underside. Where the soft-fleshy thumbbits are. x_x

But, the gerbils are perfectly fine, Willow has a tiny scab where Chii got her. I can't find where Chii got bit cause she won't stay still when I try to check her. But she's not gushing blood, and it acting normal, so she's okay.

Been playing Fatal Frame. Which kicks much spooky ass. o_o Creepy fuckin' game. o_o

Anyhow. >_> TJ's prodding me to work on actual comic stuff. Not the strip, but an actual comic. So maybe we can get a one-shot somewhere. Which would rock, but I've gotta kick my ass into gear. And work out a decent plot ahead of time. o_o

I also have gerbil pics to scan up. So those'll be up later. Wheee!

( Quizzies! )

Gerbils!

Yes, decent pictures of the little heathens. Love them.

Gotti, with a shaving on his head.
Gotti, wondering what the hell's going on.

Oz, stuffing his face with shavings.

Rosa, peering upwards.

Willow and Oz doing more gerbilly things. Oooh.
Willow, investigating her house.

Whee! The Rosa one actually has Chii in it, in the background, but you can't see her in the scan. Hell, you can barely see her in the actual picture. And that's why the filename is named rosa-chii. >_> Yes. And, finally, pictures of Willow and Gotti! Look at Willow's blind little eyes. Awwww.

Nrrg.

I can't force myself to draw anything.

I used to be able to, to get my artists block out. but I can't anymore. Stupid fucking perfectionist nature. Stupid noticing flaws while I'm sketching. >_<

And it pisses me off to the point that I want to beat my sketchbook into something sharp. Cause I've been wanting to work on comic stuff, and now that I've actually sat down to sketch out characters and all that, I can't do it. >_________<
