Months ago, I mentioned that I was doing 28 to Make, a free series of creative prompts from Creative Live. (Still free, so check it out!)
Now that I've copyright registered a large batch of work including my very rough sketches, I'm trying to be better about posting so you can see what I've been up to.
I had kind of a false start, so I have two drawings for the first couple days.
Day 1's prompt was draw your beverage. The original drawings are smaller than what you're likely seeing on screen, just quick little sketches in my date book.
Here I didn't have a real beverage because I couldn't drink anything for a while, so I just drew the inside of my mouth.
Yes, my handwriting is this terrible if I don't expect to be showing it to anyone. I endeavor to be neater when writing notes for others.

Voter Registration Deadlines Are Approaching!
Deadlines to register to vote are approaching! Remember if you've moved permanently or changed your name, you need to update your registration.
Joss Whedon created the SaveTheDay.vote site which has deadline info, the ability to register to vote, and a great PSA with loads of A-list actors.
If you are 17 now but will be 18 on or before November 8, 2016, check the Voter Registration Age Requirements by State. Many say "18 on or before next election," but in some cases, you can still register to vote before turning 18. Click your state's link for the most accurate info!
Here's the official government site for registering to vote: Vote.usa.gov
Get registered and vote, so your voice will be heard this November.

Watched Working with video in Lightroom tutorial with Julianne Kost. For LR 4 but should still work, why didn't I watch this sooner?
Also, "Lightroom CC - Working with DSLR Video" with Julianne Kost –This was great! (Think she misspoke on the keyboard shortcuts for setting in/out points. Should be shift I and shift O.)
Caught up on some archive maintenance.

Note to Self, vol. XXIV
Forgo the layers next time.
But the curls get weighed down as my hair gets longer.
I know, but the random pieces that sometimes fall forward like bangs you don't want are surely a result of the layering.
You wanted something different. Even if it seems like your hair is only getting progressively shaggier as it gets closer to the idea of the cut you want, it is at least a change from the status quo.

Note to Self, vol. XXIII
Earl Grey Dark Chocolate by jelina chocolatier is extremely tasty! Also very good: Salted Almond Dark Chocolate by Theo and Orange Peel in Dark Chocolate by Chocolove.
The other chocolate treats I sampled were also tasty though I probably wouldn't get them again.
However, in future, do not nibble as much or as late because the sugar and no doubt caffeine will seriously fuck with your sleep.
Think I got 5 hours total, and not all at once.
It's about 22 hours later and I'm only now starting to come off that physical hum I associate with caffeine.
I guess "fair trade organic chocolate" is code for highly caffeinated.
On the upside, my newly low tolerance for sugar seems a good indicator I actually have kicked my sugar addiction. Even two years ago that would've seemed impossible.
