# About me
I love pandas, cats, and really most fuzzy animals and select reptiles. I live with my sister, our cat and Dad. I sometimes have my stupid moments so if I type something stupid, please tell me. There may come a day where I use my face for the I.D., but today is not that day. My hobbies include singing, reading, and going for walks.# Comments

I'm so used to autofill to complete your full username that I accidently sent the note the first time to a complete stranger with the username Jago..

Hi Jago. You might be cautious to get your hopes up, but you do have a note notification from me. In there is roughly what I could remember from what's happened and what's going on currently. Having said that, I've forgotten some things. Dad has a girlfriend that's going to be moving in with her son that is a middle school student by June 4th. School will start back up again on the 12th, but I'm only taking one summer class, so rest assured. Since my focus on people has spread out, more people will be talked about. I can't really explain why I ended up giving a general profile description on Andrew(the note will reveal all).. I guess maybe because I've gotten to know him sort of well before you hearing from me. Please don't poke at it too much though.

This is a really random question, but can jealousy be waves of anxiety, or is that something else entirely?

Jagoryu In reply to ArtsyPurplePanda [2018-05-29 05:20:50 +0000 UTC]
Hey April, I read your note update and I thank you for it. I worry less about you now. Hehe..Β
I'll write back to you during my days(nights) off.
As for your random question, I'm not too sure... Umm... jealousy, I guess it can have something to do with anxiety... but it can also happen because of "love" and "attachment". When you love someone, you get attached and it's normal to feel jealous at times.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
ArtsyPurplePanda In reply to Jagoryu [2018-05-29 08:02:56 +0000 UTC]
I know you can feel jealous while in love. I mean, can waves of anxiety be a symptom of that jealousy? Jealousy is normally described as an angry feeling, but it can be based off of insecurity. Actually, I guess by itself, it would just be insecurity. Part of me wants to explain why I asked that question, but this is a public message.. It just felt urgent enough to message about. I'll explain in the note.
π: 0 β©: 1
Jagoryu In reply to ArtsyPurplePanda [2018-05-31 05:20:29 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, I guess but I'm not sure I would associate "insecurity" with jealousy. I'll take my gf for example. If she sees me talking or texting with a girl a bit too much. She feels the need to at least ask who she is and she looks at me with a funny face. I just have to tell her that I love her, give her a few hugs and to not worry about it.
I get it tho and I think it's cute, it's light jealousy and I feel the same sometimes. But it's not because we're insecure.Β
Anyways, tell me more about it in your next note, I'm curious why you asked. I'll write back tomorrow or friday.
π: 0 β©: 1
ArtsyPurplePanda In reply to Jagoryu [2018-05-31 12:50:05 +0000 UTC]
Right, I wasn't sure either. And I'm not sure insecurity is the right word anymore, either. It could always be strong shock or dread. It's just that it happened when my guy friend said something very specific. With that information, I give you permission to poke and prod with questions, cause I do need help getting to the bottom of it.

ArtsyPurplePanda In reply to Jagoryu [2018-05-19 23:50:15 +0000 UTC]
No, I meant what I said. I just looked back to the time you sent the note and it was around the time I was having anxiety issues related to signing up for college classes. The trend of anxiety continued after school started till just now, it's getting better. Dad explodes easily, especially related to that sort of stuff, so I gained a tendency to feel overwhelmed easily.

I'll reply today. Nothing special was done on Valentine's day, but the Sunday before we had a Bachelorette party for Gennie, Ellie's sister, since both are getting married soon. Ellie's is sometime in March. Ellie also celebrated with her fiancΓ© that weekend. I spent a lot of the day with her two weeks ago, after getting yelled at by Dad since I wasn't responding well to given directions, from anxiety, nor have been on the highway many times. We were trying to go to a driving test place to get my license and he could not believe that a driving teacher would not go on the highway. Although, we never made it to this one special coffee shop I probably won't ever get to go with her now, being she's getting married, because this one shop had problems accepting her credit card.. for an hour. I was still happy, but really regret not going because to me it would have been something really special to do with her. I am planning to make Ellie a late Valentine's day gift: strawberries filled w/ sparkling lingonberry jello, dipped in dark chocolate, so she doesn't have to worry too much about gaining weight do to having her wedding dress sized already.

Hey April, I'm writting from work.
I just wanted to let you know that I have not forgotten about you. I just don't have much free time to just sit down a reply to your last note yet. Β
I will try to do so next week, on tuesday morning when I wake up.Β
I hope you are doing well.

To be honest, I was actually contemplating asking if you forgot.. Not because of impatience. You can take however much time you want.
But you always reply later than what you say and that's why at some point I said you didn't have to give early warning.
There were some conflicts again, but right now I'm just hoping to have another day with Ellie sometime soon since we've been missing a lot again. Just got glasses today to help my eyes focus w/o strain so might take pictures of that. The next note will be loaded..

Sorry, I haven't actually kept track of how long it's been, but I'll try to reply to the note this week. No promises because I've been trying to get a better camera for cheap on ebay and it ended up being a constant distraction. First was researching brand ratings, then individual camera's in the best brand, then the lenses.. Then checking back throughout the day to check what's being sold.. between classes and homework. It should cool down by next week since I talked to a taxi guy about college and wanting to take a photography class, and he mentioned some nice cameras that were given to him. His son died some time ago and his girlfriend gifted the cameras he had and they've just been sitting around. Even if they're not especially good, I don't want them to just sit and collect dust since they were his son's..

ArtsyPurplePanda In reply to Jagoryu [2017-10-18 04:47:05 +0000 UTC]
If you request something..not naughty, I'll draw it. I still doodle sometimes. It's just like, in a journal as a way to help me focus when someone's talking for a long period of time. The camera's weren't what I was expecting, so am still looking. My paypal account hasn't totally approved of me though, so I can't move money from my bank account to Paypal to pay for things yet. Also have been trying to sell things on here and ebay, but.. no progress yet. How do you even become popular? It's a mystery..

Jagoryu In reply to ArtsyPurplePanda [2017-10-18 12:27:57 +0000 UTC]
Haha..! The "naughty" choice is not available? That's not good-- hehe, I'm joking. I was just asking like that, seems like it's been a while you haven't drawn any kind of characters. That's all.Β
I have a paypal account and I use it rather often when I order stuff from Amazon and Ebay. I have an Ebay account as well and managed to sell some games on there. I got a good reputation now. I haven't sold anything recently though. I think the last thing was this summer.

...I'm really glad these replies don't show. Didn't write it yet because accidently fell into a yuri whole again. Pulled myself out for now though and am mostly done. Just need to finish the last three paragraphs and upload pictures. I talked too much about Ellie cause a lot's happened.. She implied something embarrassing during one of our regular disagreements. You can either ask about it here or see it on the note tomorrow.

Yuri stuff huh? That's cool. Is it one from that site you once shared before? You'll have to share a link sometime. hehe...!Β
I'll reply to your note soon'ish. I got a lot to talk about. lol... I doubt it'll be this coming weekend though as it is Blizzcon 2017 and I got my virtual ticket, gonna watch that all days, Nov. 3rd and 4th. But I'll see if I have time to at least start the note.Β

Oh no.. related to what's going on, the note(don't know if you read it), or both? Super concerned something in the note was weird(for various reasons)
You can find online manga on a bunch of websites. I switched websites now because I wasn't aiming for hentai advertisements, and my favorite website started having them. "What does the fox say?" and "The Love Doctor"(much less sketchy than it sounds). What does the fox say? is actually the sketchiest of the two by a great wide margin. And "Citrus".

Jagoryu In reply to ArtsyPurplePanda [2017-10-31 02:14:50 +0000 UTC]
Haha! You crack me up sometimes. with your concerns and your distaste of some random sexy adds when you actually search and read yuri mangas. What do you expect? Hehe...Β
Anyways, yes I read your note and you have nothing to worry about. Β
I remember "What does the fox say?", it was a good and sexy one. I gave the manga "Citrus" actual books to Sab a while back. We both liked it. I'll have to check "the love doctor" now. (And yes, that title sounds... sketchy. Haha!)

ArtsyPurplePanda In reply to Jagoryu [2017-10-31 02:42:40 +0000 UTC]
Well, I don't read hentai and yuri's different. Like, I'm a girl too.. It's just a different feeling.
I just feel like I said too much on certain topic's.. Like jealousy. It's been a problem, even slightly w/ pictures. But you know, jealousy is insecurity. It's just Ellie's been hanging around Jonny so much.. It's started being pretty much every weekend, and then even regular days for us will get canceled. She didn't even hang around long enough Friday to go to a coloring club she usually goes to at the library before driving to Indiana. Her love language is words, my love language is actions, because actions speak louder than words. It's just hard. I like Jonny well enough now, but still want to have a piece of Ellie's attention or care like when there was a lot less going on.
"The Love Doctor" is so not sketchy though. It's cute. XD I usually don't make it a habit to read the super bad stuff. I got to reading "Pulse" and it got to be too much.

I know that usually hentai and yuri can be pretty different. But there can be some good hentai-yuri ones as well.

Well, you know.. you give someone an inch they'll take a mile.. Yeah, most drawings are like, doodles, or I've done two mini art projects for Ellie to highlight the good points of her art creations.. because she'll, like, create something nice and then critique it, so for one artwork I made a makeshift frame that went w/ it and then for the "barf" painting created a border and added a boat. If you want I can take pictures of my sketch journal as more drawings fill it up.
There's not much on it right now, but my username is aprimichael-0 Probably should change it to something less obviously my name.. Anyway, I should be able to start writing on the note tomorrow, but for now my eyes need to take a computer break. Have been on it all day looking for ebay deals, and just now finally ordered a Nikon D3300.
