I am aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be,
but most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see.

Here's an actual life update of the last 12 months, with pictures.

Still overweight, but not obese like my Nephrologist claimed.
My weight hasn't changed in ten years. So take THAT.

I'm still drawing occasionally.
I have a hard time sitting in a chair.

The local Mexicans like Speedy Gonzales just fine, thanks.

Speaking of loony toons...

Another view from the bay that I'm lucky to see twice-ish a year.

I had some life-changing chicken and waffles in 2025.
I went home and made a smaller version of it for Christmas.
Gastroparesis is destroying me, so I enjoy what I can when I can.

I'm still playing Pokemon.

I remain in the same community I moved to over a decade ago.
I still boycott Subway and wish them a world-ending Chapter 7.

They're still questioning if my "dense" breasts are cancer.
Radiology said I must do this twice a year the rest of my life.
No fucking thanks, mister. I'll return in my fifties.

I invested in a printer for my art. It works beautifully.
I can sell one(1) monthly due to SS's $20 allowance.
Inquire if interested. I'll send a list of available prints.
