lucoYeah, that would be me.
But it's only a temporary thing as long as I rest it (which I am even though it's driving me insane)
See, it has not been a good week for me. We had an animation due at Midnight on Friday. We've had four weeks to work on it. On Wednesday i was doing pretty good, and so to motivate myself (like I usually do) I cleaned and oraganized my room, to give myself a fresh start.
And I threw out the wrong stack of papers. Three weeks worth of animation gone.
So I screamed and cried and kicked random trees (and I apologized to both them and my feet later) and then sat down and started animating again.
Thursday evening shows up and hey, I'm not doing too bad. It'll be close but I think I can get it done. I go to sleep hopeful.
I wake up Friday morning and the run is not working at all (we had to do a walk and run for two charatcers with an interaction and motivation) It took me from 7am to 5pm to get something passable and that was without breaks or rests. At 6:30, my wrist and hand say enough! And collapse. For a good hour I was in agony, but I have carpal tunnel so this is not new. And usually I'm not doing intensive drawing for 10 hours straight. It was my own stupidity.
So, I listened to my wrist and stopped and decided to take my friends' offer and join them for the art jam after I shot what little bit of animation I had. But I go to the studios and the computers are all taken. So I go to the art jam and decide to leave early to shoot my stuff.
Which I do, but they're still taken. Thus i go grab a drink and plan to try again. But I can't even make it to the rooms because some asshole and cooked something in the microwave in the hallway that left me dizzy and sick and not breathing every well. I just made it back to my room and collapsed.
So morning comes and everything is already late and I'm too scared to try going to teh building again and thus I sit in my room and begin teh slow process of scanning over a 100 drawings and trying to get their timing right. But one part of the drawing (the guys run) would not work right! Everytime I tried scanning it in sequence it would get to a certain point and then appear twice or in the wrong level and basically it had me in tears again because I had the stuff in front of me it just did not want to work. And my wrist was still not happy with me.
Thankfully I had a visit with some friends that I desperately needed and I had been planning on seeing a movie that evening with another group of friends but I fell asleep at 5 and then today I just haven't been able to get anything done and tommorrow mom's cats are going in to get declawed and I know that they'll probably be fine, but Rico is my baby and I'm going to be so worried until i know he's home and safe which won't be until tuesday and mom is still in rough shape and now I have to go to the doctor's office her at school (which I loathe) and try to convince to give me something to help deal with the pain and swelling and hope they believe me enough to get a note to give to me teachers so that i can ask for extensions on my assignments otherwise I'm screwed and...
I'm tired.
I want my break to be now.
Dammit, I just want a hug.
