I is for insurance. And idiotic.

Since I quit my job (remember that?  Like a month ago?) I've been trying to get insurance.  Which noone told me is actually a full-time job in of itself.  (Don't get me wrong, I'm a pretty healthy individual.  I have no idea what people who actually have conditions do...)  I actually can't even get past the paperwork stage because ehealthinsurance and the insurance company I'm trying to apply with are in this vicious cycle (it would be funny if it wasn't true) of: submit paperwork, the insurance company is behind 2 weeks and the paperwork expires, the insurance company says they need new paperwork, submit paperwork, repeat.  Repeat repeat repeat.

This has been going on for a month and they are making me crazy.  I mean, come on.  When YOU take two weeks to get something done don't go back to the person who submitted the paperwork on time and go "whoops that expired now we need a whole new application :B".  Lame.  Lame lame lame lame lame.

Okay enough of that rant...

So we've been going back to old games on the PS2 lately and we actually started Silent Hill 2 last night.  I'd forgotten how excellent that game is, from the graphics (which don't really show their age in the CGI cutscenes) to the story to the voice acting to the puzzles.  (I'd also forgotten how much I hate the combat, but since I've already ranted today I won't yell about it too much... plus right now I hate the insurance company waaaay more than I hate the bad hit detection >:O) I remember it being way more difficult, but that might be because I was a kid when I played it.  It's still a lot of fun.

daily art after the jump

Fanart of Silent Hill: Shattered Memories!  I feel like I'm getting back in the swing of drawing on the PC; the pen tool is definitely loosening up.  I'm excited for this project (1 drawing every day, Monday through Friday, for a year).  I always like going back and seeing what I've improved on.
