What should I do?!

I WANT TO DRAW!



But I also want to play video games...



But I also want to work on my website...



Between all of these impulses I often find myself just doing whatever is most conveniant at the time. The BEST thing of all this is that I am not being idle because I work full time. So I can at least use the excuse of knowing that despite my unfulfilled urges I am stll being a productive member of Society.



So why is my appetite unsatiated?



Because I am used to being overencumbered. But now I am living a regular life now. With a single job and no school... Time to wind down? NO!



Ok so I need to find some inspriation for how i am going to "restructure" my website. Once I settle on a specific design I can begin research on the most effecient way to build it in Flash.



As far as drawing goes, I doodle every other day but I need to find something to really poor my time into. I know that when i get my site concept down I will have the luxury of doing art for the sites interface. But until then I guess I will just have to wait for the next thing to inspire me.



I usually get inspired from various things from games to television. I started watching an anime on Hulu when I am eaing in my room... I have the great need to request permission to re-write all the characters! I am appaulled at how cookie cut the all are! And I won't even begin to adress the excessive drama that often stunts a well develping story plot. I will refraim from mentioning this show as I am still forcing myself to watch it... I'm a maoschist apparently.



So I have been playing about 4 hours of WoW a week. Just causally questing while listening to my playlist on iTunes. I will say that there are times when I stop and write down an idea... which usually leads to a character in my head. I then "audition" the character for various stories I have made and either one of three things happen. I incoperate them into a story, encorporate their persoa into a previously existing character, or the get there own tale. :D



I will start playing Assains Cree: Brotherhood over the weekend. I have opted to not open the glorious box in my room until I can invest a few hours into its opening sequences. I really love the story Ubisoft has developed and hope to one day be able to produce something even greater int the future. Until then, I will continue to write when I am not drawing or playing.



Interesting, as I am blogging I have gotten the random craving to draw... I think I will act on that. Maybe I will post it... maybe
