I'd like to thank everyone for the outpouring of kindness in regards to my latest portrait posting

Credit where credit is due ---------->>> for tremendous photographic competence
That is one of only 2 photos of me taken in the last 25 years, so to say I was a bit trepidatious is an understatement.
I hope I didn't frighten or disappoint anyone with my advanced state of long-toothedness,
I owe you all for your patience and not-laughing-out-loud-edness.
to everyone!!!!

Devious Journal Entry
"That which does not kill us makes us stronger." Friedrich Nietzsche
Thanks, Friedrich. I really believe that maxim.
And go figure, it killed me.
Dead. :dead:
Constant pain, prescription drug addiction and all of the hell one must go through to manage it. In the face of all of these factors, I thought it might strengthen me through the roof.
Nope.
That brings me to the ultimate condition, death. It sounded great in the brochure, but it was the details that destroyed me.
Unless......you are just dying to 'live on' as a freeze-dried stinky cat mummy. You heard me, a freakin' CAT!!! Would it have killed the big guy upstairs to sta
Devious Journal Entry
Well, much to the chagrin of myself and others, the maliciously dark abyss has decided to spit me back out onto the sands of the sweet-smelling clime that is Dana Point.
I don't get to spend more than 20 minutes per 2 hours off my back ( use of the WC not being an exception ), so I thought I would send a love letter to each of you who gave a shit enough about me to respond to my last journal ( and even those who didn't respond but thought about me anyway ).
My word is my bond; and even though I have a horrible amount of physical therapy ahead of me, I WILL FIGHT
It will take a while, and my "art" might look like crap, but I will fight. I k
I Love You
Love is such a simple thing, it doesn't cost anything, it can't be measured or sometimes even trusted. And it seems to be the only thing I can offer all of the unforgettable people I have loved here at DA. I have not been here for many reasons, the main reason is that I don't feel like I should waste anyone's time unless I can post art. I don't know why I feel this way, I just know that I always have. I have found and have been given so many wondrous friendships here. Deviant Art has given me the precious gift of meaning and purpose, and when I am not here I fall into the deepest, most abysmal hole imaginable.
I have been miserably sick l
an UPdate about DOWNthings
A brief update in regards to my 'return' and overall condition:
I am generally tired of 'waiting until I feel better' to return to 'art' and my favorite community in all the world.
Tired of hiding in the 'video game cave' of instant gratification and stymied creativity. Tired of waiting for the Medical Cavalry that may never arrive.
For those with an insatiable hunger for morbidity ( and those who are genuinely interested ), I proffer the following:
My degenerative disc disease continues in spite of surgery ( a $110,000 'gift' from my insurance company ) and ever increasing doses of "Hospital Heroin" (hydromorphone), Methadone, Oxycodone,

I love how you used the word "trepidatious". It's one of my favorite words.
