Missing pieces

I wanted to have more than one graphic to share, but I'm just not feeling the Spike/Buffy inspiration these days. :( I've had this done for a while now, and am too impatient to sit on it any longer.

Anyway, this was done from a tutorial, found here. While it's not quite what I'd set out to make, I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. It's a little off center, but I'd come too far to fix it without having to start over from scratch and I couldn't bear that idea. My aching wrist. My forearm hurt for about two days. Let's hear it for carpal tunnel pain! heh. I should've waited to do this until I had a tablet. lol Maybe when (if) I get one from my Christmas elf, I'll try this again with a slightly more consistent result.

I don't have any matching icons to go with, at least not at the moment. If I make any, I'll mention it. I'm not really seeing this as a header or story banner, but if anyone would like it personalized or resized, all you need to do is ask. :) Please comment if you liked it, are taking it, have a problem, or would like to provide constructive criticism. Please remember to give credit if you use it. Thanks, and I hope you like it.

Dear lord

is there something in the air?

It's like all negative all the time lately. And I'm just as guilty of this, I know, I've been down in the dumps for weeks now, but it really seems like more and more people are feeling just LOUSY about everything. :( As if this time of year isn't stressful enough without feeling like everything's crashing down around you.

If you're feeling bad about anything, *hugs* for you. And hey, even if you're NOT feeling blue, you're getting a hug, so how do you like them apples? lol

We need a ridiculously sappy hug meme or something to be making the rounds. (I can't believe I just said that! hahaha)
