Blue on white

It's been a few days. Been having trouble drawing, which is too bad because I have less time to do it in so it would be nice to not be having this downswing. See, part of drawing is engineering - knowing where the lines go so they'll build what you need to show. And engineering is a whole mindset. And I'm not in that mindset. Muscle memory by itself won't do it.

My Patreon comics continue but I'm on my phone right now and I can't grab images with my phone. I'll do it later. The storyline is there! It took me 6 hours to draw one daily comic. That's not okay. It should only take 1 or 2.

Massive debilitating headache, probably because of my glasses. I had a pair of 'good' glasses I bought off the shelf but for some reason they just work better for use for long periods. I ran over them with the car. I salvaged them anyway and was still able to use them, but I've also had to use my prescription glasses more and they're wonky. My eyes are actually what's wonky. I go to take an eye exam and then whatever data comes out produces lenses that I absolutely can't use. So I used another off-the-shelf pair yesterday and it really messed me up. I need to look at something that's not a screen.

So I'll go do that.

Is there a way for you to find another pair like the good ones? Perhaps, that will help. I am totally blind and have never seen, so forgive me if this sounds silly.

It's a good idea in theory! In practice, I'm not sure how to go about it. If I try on every pair in every store that sells glasses, I might get lucky, I suppose. But they're soooo cheaply made that the fact that one pair came out exactly right might be a rare bit of serendipity.
