This is so frustrating. I'm going through one hell of an art block, and it's kicking me around.

And today, I was trying to coax Aarka over to me so I could brush her teeth. I pointed to the floor, and she thought I had the laser light pen. My hand became the nonexistant object she was after, and she bit me.

She never bites me intentionally, unless we're just being goofy. And it never hurts. She knows her boundaries.

But this hurts like hell. At first glance, it was just a pinched nerve on my pinky. A minute later, my finger's bleeding.

>___< I didn't realise how important a pinky finger is when you draw. I tend to put pressure on that finger a lot.

Long story short, I can't get to finishing much art until this damned thing stops hurting so bad. Or if I can re-learn how to use a mouse for drawing, I might be a little quicker.
