Gah.

Between family issues, friend issues, work issues, lots of other random crap, and the fact that I've a rather short attention span, it's been kindof hard to focus here in my little Taj-bubble.

So I owe everyone apologies.

I hit an uber-motivated spot last week when I posted my last journal, but DA-related stuff kindof came to a standstill starting the other day..

What have I been doing?

Working, designing/making artwork for/putting together/printing/folding/signing wedding announcements, trying to compile a list of guests, their addresses, and a biggo checklist/chart of important stuff for each of them.

We have well over 100 people on the list now.

And being the genius that I am, I decided to decorate and fill out each envelope by hand. X_X

Heh.

I got so sick of writing my address I thought I was going crazy. Several times, I actually got down to my zip code and had to stop and think about which way a 5 goes.. >_<

But anyway, these have sortof been sucking up all my time over the past few days. Soon as they're done, I'll be back on DA full force.

Heh.. in other news, I've picked out potential wedding favors.

Approximate total price? About $575

*dies*

Yeah.

Heh.

Anyway.. thanks for being patient with me, guys. I SWEAR I'll get around to reading journals, looking at artwork, and commenting/responding to comments soon. :heart:

aww poor taj :/ Sorry i didnt help you stay motivated on art. I got so busy doing other things. Oh and i noticed i'm still not on your art list at the bottom of your journal XD lol.

O.o... and decorating envelopes for over 100 people ?!? Are you crazy? lol. that's going to take forever!! I wish I could help out :/ that's going to take awhile. so no worries if you arent back on DA in awhile. I think everyone will understand :]

:hexentanz:
Well the fact you got a list of what you need to do is always a good start, though I do know what you mean about the whole motivation thing, it would be so much easier if there was a way to get over that...

good luck with all your plannings and stuffs :dance:

I lol'd at the size of your to-do list.
You have definatly got your work cut out for you there U_U

Goodluck with everything and if you're looking to raise money with commissions or something i might be able to buy something - if your not too swamped XD

4 out of 5 voices in my head say go back to sleep.
Yeah, I realized I forgot to add you as soon as I saw you had left me a message.

I got ya on there now.
My brain was all sorts of messed up when I was writing this journal..

I'm gonna TRY to get caught up/keep up with DA stuff.. But it seems like every time I even get CLOSE to emptying out my messages/deviation alert list, they get filled right back up again!!

Hoy..

while the ever famous 'to-do list' is long, your reasons concering the wedding is by far more than rightious. make yourself happy, then worry about others (cept obi-wan and gozer. long live the giant lizard!) anyways.

i like bubbles... they funny looking O.o

And aww that sucks :[ Well i've had 2 commissions and an art trade to do for a LONG time but havent gotten around to finishing them because i dont have a scanner yet... [i want it to put the lineart on the comp so i can color it digitally] but yeah... i dont have the money to get one right now. -sigh- And i still havent even started the lineart for voltaira's art trade. i should get on that when i get some creative juices flowing XD lol.

And then yesterday i got to go to the library and i was supposed to take my exams with me to do online, but then i totally forgot them at home so i dont even have those done yet. bleh... i wish this computer didnt have so many virus problems D:

Honestly: Taj, even though you haven't posted any art in ages,

86%
60 deviants said I'm still an active watcher.
10%
7 deviants said I watch, but I wouldn't call myself active. You're lucky I'm clicking in this poll.
4%
3 deviants said I'm an active watcher, but not for much longer if I don't see some arts!
