Check.
Step Three: Learn how to use it well.

What will follow is likely to be a string of deeply embarrassing pieces of horrific scribbles as I try and discover whether or not step one was actually worth it or not, and hosting my attempts here is one of the ways I can keep motivated.

I have never been so grateful to have a minute (and comparatively preoccupied) audience.

Armed my trusty, five-year old laptop who's clearly on her last legs (poor thing) I have once again come to resolution to actually learn how to do something new with the various collection of graphic programs I've accumulated over the years.

How long this resolve will last I cannot say. Perhaps a month, perhaps a year. Either way, I am stating said resolution for the record (and so that I guilt myself into working everytime I look here).

Also, I have nothing to read. This is bad. Expect casualties.

Oh, if only I could draw...

Now, I have a friend who's son has been diagnosed with diabetes and only barely avoided a coma. Currently, he's going to be forced to live a life of daily injections and ceaseless caution concerning what he eats, how he lives, and so forth and so on. I know people who live like this and they would get rid of it in a heartbeat if they could.

His parents, however, have decided they won't sit back and let this happen - something I strongly agree with. Normally I'm not one for charity - I know I can't help everyone, but I can help those I care for personally.

So, please - if you're willing to help this couple and their son, Scotty, take a look at the website below and if you can, contribute something - even if it's just a little as a token of support.

I deal mostly in photo manipulation and such due a complete and utter incapability to draw - a lack which I mourn daily, but c'est la vie.
