I hate waiting at the doctor’s office… I really do. Don’t you? So, I hate also being sick, because I know I have to see my doc. Well, there’s no problem with my doctor; the problem is spend hours sitting in a chair… waiting. And, the worst part of it? I was the last patience! Then, this impatient patience had to sketch a lot. This drawing above (colours are digital) is my favorite of them!

Reading this, you may ask: Tati, are you sick? Hmmmm… Not sick, in terms. I have been suffering from high cholesterol and triglycerides levels for a couple of years, and lately I’m feeling heartburns (funny word… it has nothing to do with my heart). But don’t worry, everything is fine now. My levels are normal, it’s not gastritis as I thought, I’m on a diet, taking medicines and doing exercises.

Keeping this blog updated… This is a personal illustration which I made last year, but recently painted. By the way, I just uploaded some more illustrations to the Gallery page. Oh, yeah… Finally I found my backup CDs, as well as my old drawings.

4th May was my birthday… Oh, I am very sorry for didn’t let you know about that! You know… That old story: busy, as always! Doing what? Studying and learning how to have a little more discipline and be more dedicated. And, as the time goes fast and we have a lot of informations and things to do, it’s getting really difficult to focus on something… Don’t you think?

Well, that’s one of the thoughts I have every birthday. Actually I’m passing through the “27-year-old crisis” (I think I just created this term). That’s weird, because I’m almost 30! And… A few years ago I was 15! Wait… Where’s my 15??? I want my 15 back!!! o_O’

Ok… Breathing…

I had a cool day. Honestly, this 4th May was very weird. My hubby upseted me (whatever reason), and I spent all morning crying and finding me a looser. But, we had a talk and things back to normal. We went out for lunch, etc, etc… and I had a kind of “surprise” party. Yeah, “surprise”! Have you ever seen someone organizing a surprise party via Twitter? So, Nando did it.

It was very nice. I’ve got some gifts, including two books that I want to share with you: The Acrylic Artist’s Bible, by Marylin Scott and the brazilian version of Computer Arts’ The Book of Inspiration. Both are amazing and exactly what I need now! The first one is all in spanish… That’s cool, because I just started a spanish course on Livemocha. But, the most interesting is a word I saw there: “abocetado”. It makes me laugh a lot! In portuguese, “boceta” is a bad language that means “vagina” (don’t teach this to your kids, please)… Then, see “boceta” as a verb, adverb (or something grammatical I don’t remember) is very funny. Actually, “abocetado” has to do with sketch, doodle… Nothing pornographic. Yes, we brazilians are pervert. LOL!

So… that’s all folks. Hmmmm…. 27? Really?
