birthday

I am a day late for my own birthday, yay! Anyways, I have a whole shitload of stuff to update about, including getting to do book illustration and a puppeteering stint coming up next spring. I also have no motivation whatsoever for anything right now, but... yay! Birthday! Also I want to show off my shiniest birthday present of all:

I also bought myself a Lansky sharpening system and this brings my collection up to three. Next on the list is a display rack of some kind.
I am way behind on the costume thing. I have a detailed costume in mind, but I can't seem to get myself to work on anything. Not sure what my problem is.
Aaanyways, I'm 28 and I have a sword. Rrr.
