So, today you get two more bookmarks.









And I am so bloody sore....am also stuck in a back brace for a good long while, but hey, anything that will help avoid surgery at this point is worthwhile right? I just hate not being able to move much, and no ddr, no dancing, no sprawled out sleeping, etc.

Well, at least I have art to keep me busy and hopefully I'll be able to leave the brace at home during Anime North.

But the bright side of all this? Once I make enough money at Anime North (hopefully) I can switch the brace for a corset *___* Which the doctor said I could wear since it would keep the posture I need and help support my back. As long as I get a proper one and hey, having a medical reason to get a corset makes me happy!

...

But I don't think I ever explained why I needed a brace or anything did I? *looks back through entries* No, I didn't...

Ummm, I have scoliosis, which basically means your spine is curved. And mine is following along like my mother's and curving inwards. Thus, not good. But hopefully with the brace and chiropractor's help, I will not need the surgery.

So now, I get to sit around and do nothing.

Yeah. That explain why I've been quiet? I've not been the most pleasant of company for the past week or so as dad will cheerfully tell you.

That Luffy bookmark is really cute. ^_^

ah! Those are both so adorable! I really like the laharl one, bet ^_^

and yie~ I will hope for you back! *crosses fingers* but yeah, man. Medical reason to buy a corset *is* pretty sweet <3

Owwww scoliosis. When I was in high school they thought I might have it, and I got so freaked out, because I have no pain tolerance ;_; So I hope you dodge the surgery and that the brace (and corset *_*) works out! *hugs*

Those bookmarks are adorable as always. Love how confident Luffy's looks too :D

OK first: Luffy is the cute.
Second: Much luck with the back.
Third: Having a medical reason to get a corset is for win. I mush say. XD

P.S. Do you know if you’re going to be going to Otakon this year yet?

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Isn't he? The little guy in the front is probably one of my favourites out of all the new bookmarks!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I really wanna make more Disgaea bookmarks (Adell and a Gunner for sure) but I already have a list I need to complete for Anime North, so the rest will have to be for Otakon...

But yes, corset is what is keeping me happy!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I've had it since I was 13 I think, but it didn't become a problem until recently.

...

Let me rephrase that. The back itself didn't become a problem until recently, but most of the health problems I have suffered over the years can be linked back to everything being twisted around inside. So if this gets fixed, I should have much better luck health wise from now on!

And how can Luffy be anything but confident?

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Wait till you see the Chopper one. Then you will know cute.

And if everything works out with the back I'll be in much better health over-all.

Yes, having an excuse to get a corset just thrills me ^___^

I will have a table in Artist Alley at Otakon this year, so yes I will be there (will actually be in the area from the Monday/Tuesday till Sunday/Monday, so all will be cool) and you can see the corset!

zomg Laharl too cute :D :D :D

Hope things work out with the back problems.

I am always a fan of checking out a girl in a corset!! XD

Cool to haveing a table in Artist Alley! Now we have someone we can come and bug. XD So your going to be in MD for a week?

[kitten0face.livejournal.com]

Oooh! I'll be sure to stop by and look for your table at the otakon artists Alley!!!!

So I can get some of all this pretty cuteness you've been making!

[gypsyluv.livejournal.com]

Those bookmarks are too cute!
You are so good!
Just amazing!

And darlin' I do hope that the brace works for you and you don't have to have surgery. I can't imagine the pain you must be in!
You will remain in my thoughts and I wish only the best for you!
And though my heart is filled with sympothy for you right now I can not help but smile at your wanting to wear the corset! I keep hearing Elizabeth in POTC saying... "You want to feel pain... try wearing a corset" or something like that!

Lots of Hugs and Kisses to you!
Much Love too!
Carla

Awww, socute~

*Hugs you ♥*

I simply LOVE the Luffy bookmark! Might just end up printing that one! :D

Awwww, scoliosis sucks. I remember my best friend had it when we were little. She had to wear a back brace to bed all the time...

Thought:

If the corset can be considered a 'medical device', akin to a back brace, do you think OHIP or some kind of insurance would pay for it? I mean, I can understand 110% why you would pick the corset over the brace, but it would be even better if it was free. :D

I know it's entirely unlikely, but hey, it might be funny to ask and see what people say.

Take care of yourself and know that I am crossing my fingers and hoping for the best for you and your back!

Luffy is adorable! I don't know who the other one is, but he's cute too! He looks a bit like Vincent Valentine w/ the eyes and cloak thing.

Wow, I hope the brace does its job and you don't have to have surgery! That would suck majorly if you did have to have it.
