Magic Dog

I have spent the past 2 days watching tutorials. Drawing a little bit of things like ropes, nets, a rug, and stone bricks. Nothing too crazy. Letting my Tendonitis heal up. I got sick on Thurs night into Friday from food poisoning. It was caused by soured chip dip I had left out for too long. Thankfully unlike food poisoning I have had in the past, this food poisoning was smooth sailing and only lasted for a few hours. I recovered quickly and was able to keep water down. I am going to the zoo today with friends. Another chance to heal up.

I suffer from Tendonitis. This developed back in highschool from Marching Band and Drumline. Occasionally, it flares up and I cannot continue working until the pain heals. Yup. I indeed have been drawing that much... The only things that help are stretches and rest. Today I may choose to hit up some thrift stores or talk to people on discord. Nothing that requires my wrist. I can take ibuprofen to help with the pain but my wrist doesn't get rest and that's not good. Ice and Heat helps the recovery process. I'll likely be back pen in hand tomorrow. Funny enough. There is a interesting equalibrium where my pain becomes negligible and my wrist control is turned onto maximum. I have zero understanding as to why that is, but I am able to draw better once I have a little bit of wrist pain.
