Personal Digest Saturday: February 3 – February 9 [GIF Warning]

Life news this week:

• Saturday my mom was supposed to visit but she never made it over so I spent the day just chilling. I played a video game, washed dishes, updated my Amino posts, and made lemon bars. I didn't feel well so I took a couple naps.
  
• Sunday was Queer Brunch. My friends Arthur and Yasmin picked me up and took me to the event. I got to have a fun conversation with some younger folks and it turned out one of them was a fan of my videos and had seen me on TV, and told me they'd been trying to figure out if I was that person. They thanked me for my help with discovering their identity. So rewarding to hear! I contributed the lemon bars and Arthur and Yasmin brought this awesome lentil thing. After the event, I just played video games and did laundry.
  
• Monday I had a cough. I worked on an Access database all day and then at home I worked on my website revamp.
  
• Tuesday I helped co-workers and updated databases. At home I worked on the website more and did a drawing of Garnet that turned out really cool. (I was participating in a screenshot redraw challenge, so it was an "assigned" drawing, but I ended up really liking what I made.)
  
• Wednesday I had a really bad runny nose and used up most of a box of tissues, but I was at work. I helped check some plans and made some really big maps on our plotter. Then I went to Toyko Sushi with Jeaux and then back to my place where he helped me play video games and laughed at how bad I am.
  
• Thursday I was feeling a little better. Built more of the Access database, and then when I got home I worked on animation for my drawing because I wanted it to be special. I talked to Victor on the phone and drew webcomics too.
  
• Friday was good, I posted my drawing on Amino and tried a new place down the road for lunch--ended up having one of the tastiest veggie burgers ever! Then I went home and worked on my comic. My mom came over in the latter part of the evening, having been delayed because her car got a flat tire. (She drives really rarely these days.) Glad she finally felt good enough to go out!

New singing performances:

New drawings: 

I had to redraw a screenshot from the show and the picture I was assigned was this one (from episode 11, "Arcade Mania"): 

It represents a situation where Garnet was busy playing video games and got hypnotized by the game and couldn't help fight monsters when they needed her. So this is my version:

Woohoo I animated it!
