      1. @jinroh Feeling slightly moody. Chances are this is going to turn into me drawing a thing.

    3. @retl Turn that frown upside down? So ): instead of :(?

      1. @nvrrmbr That's more of a horizontal reflection, but technically the eyes aren't a part of a frown.

        1. @retl what IS a gherkin?

          1. @derps A gherkin is a kind of pickle.

          1. @thelastgherkin So-so. I'm thinking I'm either gonna take a bit to play # or draw, then make some flash cards for my class tomorrow. Listen around on the chat on # Mostly the usual. I've got some older sketches I left half-finished more than half a year ago that looked pretty cool, so it might be a good time to revisit some of those.

            1. @retl You seem to be in a bit of a funk recently, if you don't mind me saying. :/

              1. @thelastgherkin Ups and downs. Beats depression. I think I'm finally hitting that wall where I've noticed a lot of what I was doing was "work to play" rather than a necessary drive of "work to eat" or a productive drive of "work to work". I haven't quite figured out what it is I want to be working on. I don't think illustration's really taking me anywhere I want to focus on, same as music didn't. And I've just been lazy about working on my game projects when I'm not hanging around a college campus computer lab.

                1. @retl To be honest, you seem to be going more places than I do. Not that I'm saying you should think yourself better than me because schadenfreude but... I forget where I was going with this. But idea~! I think you should take a holiday, or at the very least a break.

                  Monday, 26-Sep-11 20:35:06 UTC from web
                  1. @thelastgherkin *Smooshyhugs! :3* It's not work in the sense of a job, but work in the sense of just drawing/performing/recording/editing/writing/coding in general. I mean I could take a break, but I'd spend that time playing games, which wouldn't really change the psychology behind the "work-to-play" mode of thinking. That said, I do get the suggestion of taking a break fairly often. :B And yet I never do.

                    1. @retl Go on h̶o̶l̶i̶d̶a̶y̶ vacation! Go away from all the noise and the hubbub and the work, have a rest, and then get straight back to it feeling superrefreshed. :)

                      1. @thelastgherkin Explosively refreshed? 8D

                        Monday, 26-Sep-11 21:20:36 UTC from web
                        1. @retl Hill yeah. There's nothing like being on holiday that makes you really want to get back to work. I mean, think about this dog who's tied up, and just out of reach is this delicious steak. He's like RUFF RUFF RUFF I WANT THAT STEAK BUT I CAN'T REACH IT AND I'M SO HUNGRY and he gets more and more eager to eat the steak AND THEN later on he's set free and he's like OH MY GOODNESS I AM GOING TO EAT THIS STEAK SO HAAARRRD, IT IS GOING TO BE THE MOST I'VE EVER EATEN A STEAK RUFF RUFF and then he eats the steak. See, in this analogy, you're the dog, and your work is the steak, and the leash is the holiday, and... I think that covers it? Oh man I just made myself really hungry.
