Here's a little note to Convection: As the title, thumbnail, and art suggest... HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I thought it would be cool to try my hand at (digital) art for the first time in a while when I decided to make this, so I hope it turned out well! I wish you the very happiest of birthdays and I hope it's full of things that are awesome, good, cool, amazing, everything in between, and perhaps even a wondrous combination of all five! And I'm not sure how many times I can say this... but YOU'RE MORE AWESOME! >:3 (I will be more than happy to pull out another comically large number to get that through your head.)
This art is dedicated to you, of course, Convection... With all that previous silliness aside, regardless of how many times I say it, I'll always be grateful to have you as a friend and I'm probably the happiest boy in the world now that we're able to talk with each other so regularly. I've always felt that way since the very beginning, and it will remain like that until the end of time. I don't care who knows it, either. The whole world could be listening, and I'd happily shout from the rooftops about how grateful and happy I am to have you in my life. Every email, every text, every joke, every time we're able to circle a conversation back to time travel, every SpongeBob quote, every song that we're working on or want to share with each other... It all means the world to me. And, in minor contradiction to what I've said in the past, to say I'm simply "happy" or "grateful" would be an understatement at its most extreme. If I could find a way to accurately articulate how I feel about being able to talk with you so much, I would, believe me... But there aren't any words in the English language (or probably any other one, let's be honest) that would do a good job at doing so. So I'll leave it at this... Our little interactions throughout the day do more to lift my mood and make me happy than what anything else ever could. Not just the interactions, though. You, specifically, make me happy. I'll keep reminding you of that (in addition to how awesome you are ;D) for the rest of my life. And when I say "happy birthday," I'm not just hoping you have a good day of celebration, although that is a part of it. It's a reminder that you legitimately mean so much to me and you truly deserve to have all the happiness in the world. So, with that in mind... Happy birthday. ;)
