softroe: A drawing of me scowling. (Default)
I'm Cyrano, and this is my journal! I tend to ramble a lot at length, but here are some things you'll probably see here.
  • Chatter about my general life and job.
  • Ramblings about whatever media I happen to be into at the moment.
  • Posting art...talking about art...
I am an artist and I do draw quite often, most of which can be found on my personal mastodon which you can ask for!

Please be warned that a lot of my art is suggestive in nature, and some of the tropes I enjoy may be upsetting to others. Please keep any content warnings in mind when viewing my content!

This of course applies to this journal as well, as I am an adult-- and enjoy things designated for adults.

I'm pretty lax with granting access and subscribing, but don't feel obligated to follow back! I just like reading up on what people are up to!

 another few weeks gone by, time for an update i suppose!
new job has been relatively good! very physically demanding, but i enjoy doing it.
my coworkers are really friendly, and a few of them will be volunteering with me at a con down here so i’m super excited about that.

finally getting my health more or less lined up. after scrambling back and forth for some time, i finally got my birth control prescription back. My insurance originally was being super weird about it, so I’m really grateful to have it back. The patch was always the only thing that successfully regulated my cycle, so I’m just relieved. I know readjusting to it after not being on it for a long time is gonna suck, but I’m just glad I won’t have to argue over why it isn’t covered anymore.

looking forward to the rest of the year, june has two concerts i plan on going to! I’m super excited for both, Sleigh Bells on the 1st, and GY!BE on the 21st! I think I have to work on both days, but going to work and then a concert won’t be too bad. I’m just glad I get to go at all!! I’ll have to make sure I bring cash.

april! i meant to make a post on my birthday (04/08) but i'd been so busy that i'd forgotten. oopsie!
anyway, things have been a bit hectic over here...a big issue happened at my current job and i and some others on my team ended up laid off at the beginning of april..i start my new job tomorrow though haha!!!

my birthday went well, i mostly slept...which was a dream bday for me. i always just want to rest for my bday and do nothing else and im really glad i got the chance to just relax.

lately ive been focusing more on flans...and looking into the specifics surrounding oshikatsu and how all of that works...i want to make a flans themed uchiwa..flans themed pen light....uwaah...cute...i love him so so so much it hurts sometimes. i'm working on making a dedicated area of my room for him, and im excited to finish it up!

also today is Glean's birthday! Happy 10th Birthday Glean!

ehe...i also take the time to post and archive pictures i like of him on my photoblog: handinsidepuppethead, i really cant wait to take some of my own later this year!! i'm so super excited...hopefully he'll also get back to doing live vibe reports sometime! i really miss seeing him fumble around on tiktok, it's cute.

currently, i'm waiting on a new craft book that shows you how to make felt dolls in the style of aranzi aronzo! I'm super excited to make a flans kitty and a linnell bunny! that's all for now! /wave

good morning from a surprisingly chilly ga.
so first things first! pretty much all the tmbg shows i was going to go to got rescheduled…linnell was ill and ended up in the hospital, i was super concerned for a second,  but hes out now and doing ok so im really glad!! all the shows got rescheduled to late fall, so i’ll be running about in october and november to see them. im actually kinda excited and dont really mind waiting, plus it gives me more time to make gifts for ozzy, so im kind of really happy! it’ll be nice to finally see them later this year, even if waiting can be hard!! but i waited last october until now, so i can wait from now until this fall easy…

it also helps that i have more shows lined up this year, starting with sleigh bells in june, godspeed you!black emperor also in june, and finishing out the summer with seeing sal vulcano from impractical jokers in august! hehe… im really really excited… 


in other news, i saw mickey 17 yesterday! it was really great, and confirmed to me further i definitely have a Thing for seeing a specific type of man in distressing situations…. There were several times where it felt like I was white knuckling my seat because i was just so enamored with what was happening in the movie. I would like to request 400 more films where a greasy wimpy little man gets shoved around and killed in various ways and screams and shrieks in agony for 2 hours for my entertainment….i cant wait to show the quigglers, there were so many scenes where i sat there and said to myself “ah yes kit would like this… the glop would love this…” we will have to have a movie night soon and hold hands and giggle over robert pattinson getting tortured.

 hello again from home.. just a week and some days until tennessee and tmbg and everything but im finding it a little hard to get excited for various reasons.. feeling very worried and sad about things, glad i go to the doctor tomorrow. i hope im just overthinking things and its really nothing..im so sad but i also understand.. in other news i have recently started reading and watching chiikawa and i really like it, hachiware is my favorite.

i need to apply for some more jobs and get some work done on my websites so im trying to get myself motivated. we’ll see if i can get anything done in regards to things today.
