I'll make a full update later, but last night one of my crowns came off... and took the rest of the tooth with it. It hasn't even been a month since the last one, and now I have to prepare yet another tooth extraction and bone graft.

Eventually, to restore my bite, it will need an implant that will cost me thousands of dollars. Insurance will not cover it.

I thought this was all behind me. I feel utterly defeated.

I've been so busy and stressed lately I could explode but AYO RHYTHM HEAVEN?!?! LET'S GO?!?!?

In other good news... things are looking up in regards to my awful dental bill adventures! It's a bit much for one post, so here's a link to the update:

If you don't wanna read a bunch, here's the tl;dr:

  • insurance is covering more than I expected!
  • only two procedures left!
  • number aficionados and scanned document connoisseurs are gonna LOVE the receipts I just shared
  • I love you all so much 🥺

Hey all! Remember how I said that things are looking up? It turns out that that was just a funny little prank my body decided to play on me! My tooth is severely infected. My lips and right ear are numb, and the pain is worse than when my appendix ruptured. I need to have it extracted. So uhhh I'm boosting this again 🙃

More info below I guess

Finally… I have a happier update to share. More info below.

Thank you all, truly 💙

Last night, one of my two frogs, Ditto, passed away.

He wasn't eating as much as his friend Goomy, and I wanted to bring him to the vet to find out why... but then my dental emergency happened.

Thank you for the smiles, little dude. I wish I could've helped you...

I was already frustrated with my pc's monitor terrible contrast, but now it's started to fully turn off every hour or so... so I looked it up, and it turns out that my model was released in 2013. I didn't realize it was that old!

Its time to put her out to pasture 😭

The good news: Wow! I got a new color-accurate monitor, and everything looks spectacular!

The bad news: Wow! Everything I've been making for the past couple of years looks COMPLETELY different than what my old monitor was showing. No wonder my merch looked off to me irl :"D

And now that my old monitor has been sent to the farm, that means I had to spend money on a new one. And since I depend on this purchase for my job, this is a good time as any to bump that I have neat little shop ;D if you are so inclined ;"D

I really needed to get out of the house and stop thinking about gestures wildly to the state of our country… so I drove down to the Square Enix Pop-Up in LA and had a great time! 💙

I wanted to get like, literally everything in the store, but I had to be strong and only treat myself a little haha. (Hell, I wasn't originally gonna get the Sephiroth cause Money™, but shout out to my friend for surprising me with him anyways! ;o;)
