Hello, Fluffsters! Happy Monday.

So. Something slightly odd happened in Church yesterday morning. We were celebrating Epiphany, which is the day we commemorate the wise men bringing gifts to Jesus. That’s not the odd part.

…

Wait. Fluffy didn’t interject with a “how odd.”

I guess that makes sense.

But as I was saying. The odd part was what happened when we sang “The First Noel.” (It’s a classic Christmas carol, but it talks about the wisemen. So therefore it’s epiphany.) You see, I started actually thinking about what the words were saying in verse three:

And by the light of that same star, Three wise men came from country far; To seek for a king was there intent, And to follow that star wherever it went.

As you may have gathered by my emphasis, the last part before the chorus really stood out to me. I had this image of the wise men / three kings following the star to wherever it was.

The wise men 3 follow the star wherever it WENT… including Space.

Yes?

I understand that the physics probably doesn’t(? Don’t?) work. But the song does say that they followed wherever it went.

Thank you, I think.

Well, Fluffsters, happy Monday! To any of you starting classes, I hope they all go well! And I hope to continue to provide you with a daily dose of procrastination stress relief! I hope you have an excellent week.

Hello, Fluffsters!

So, I’m a bit annoyed. I cannot find the perfect medium.

…What? Oh. No. Medium, not medium.

Huh. I guess it doesn’t work as well when typing.

What I was trying to say is that I can’t find the perfect thing to use for my doodlings.

Yeah. You see, I doodle a lot better with pencil and paper than I do with tablet computer and photoshop. But photoshop has layers. And layers are Ah. Maze. Ing.

Actually, sortof yes.

Photoshop layers are wonderful. Basically, they’re a way of putting stuff on top of a previously drawn / designed thing, and not losing that picture.

Think of it as paper dolls. You can create the separate clothes, and put them on top of the doll. The doll is there, but so’s the dress. Layers are like that, except it has to do with the drawing itself. And it can be a lot more fine-tuned.

I’m a lot more precise with pencil and paper.

Seriously.

I just doodled this while I was procrastinating from other writing I’m supposedly doing.

This is actually much larger than the doodle itself.

I could never get that kind of precision on Photoshop.

But with pencil and paper, when I erase something, it doesn’t show a previous layer. It shows the paper.

That’s not phrased as a question…

Huh. I guess it is.

Well, it’s still rantworthy!

Exactly.

So, happy Saturday, Fluffsters!
