My 3am doodles used to be pencil on the back of junk mail, now they are fat markers on a tablet

Back in 2019 I would sit on my apartment floor in Tucson with a chewed up number 2 pencil and draw on the back of old bills until I fell asleep on them. Now I grab my tablet around 1am and use a big fat brush tool because I cannot see the tiny lines anymore. The pencil era gave me shaky hands and smudges, but it was kind of nice not being able to undo a bad ear. Last Tuesday I made a cat with 7 legs and erased 4 of them, which felt like cheating the whole point of this group. Do you all keep the mistakes or fix them?
