--nah, just play with it, it layers, you want to start light and go darker with each layer, and use a good paper, it will just curl up your average paper.. fine to play on ordinary paper, if you know it will wrinkle up and are fine with that, but for serious work, you need proper paper

--'Hyper focus' is kind of a double-edged sword, too. It just means I focus really hard on something when I actually should be focusing on something else. :P So if I've got chores to do, I'd rather do nothing than actually do them. So I'll be sitting on the floor looking like a pathetic jerk until I break through that wall, lol.

--It's just that I prefer that it be accepted for what it is.. 'Cause I've had people telling me my whole life that I'm lazy. That may be true to some extent, but some of it is something which is an actual ongoing struggle for me-- A large part of me is -not- lazy. It's just that I'm hitting a wall to do the things I know I should be doing.
