| | I want my freedom taken away by sudden love Oh I knew it from the first time I saw you I will give you my cold words and a warm kiss. This is love, this is love
Lyrics are a little wonky. The song is in Japanese.... so the translation is usually a little off. Get over it.
So I'm one week into being unemployed, though technically I'm a little over a week, if you count the Friday I didn't work. Either way, we did finally manage to get into the office to get our shit and to get our checks. Took forEVER. Two hours lost, waiting for them to pick fucking logos. What's annoying is that they could have picked while we were gone, and could have had a list already ready for what they wanted. But no. That would be too easy. I mean, come on, we're unemployed. Obviously that means we have nothing else to do, right? Right?
Anyways, been talking to mom a bit lately. Wound up deciding against unemployment for hte time being. It's a lot of hell to get it, and they'll make you take any damned job they find that looks like it might fit your skills. Which means I could get stuck with retail or office work again, and I don't want that. I want to stay within art, I'm tired of not using my skills in some way or form. So I"m pretty damned determined to find a job that is art related. Overall, though, I'm not worried. It's kinda funny, though, a couple of the times I've talked to mom about losing my job, she mentions not to let it get to me, and then throws in "you could always curse them" or "Get a Cupie doll and stick some needles in it". Now these comments make me wonder two things:
1. Does mom have some sort of fixation with cursing people?
2. Does mom think I have some sort of fixation with cursing people?
I mean, yeah, I'm pagan, and with being pagan, there is the topic of curses, whether they work, whether you should use them etc etc. I personally think they're a waste of time 9 times out of 10, but I am by no means a Wiccan in that "Oh! You'll get bit three times if you use one!" Just not me. However, I don't see the point in them. Unless you've been superbly wronged, there is no point. So I find it ironic that mom keeps mentioning them. Makes me think that she thinks that due to my pagan ways, I like to run around curse people left and right :P Heh, that'd be humerous.
Anyways, nothing else of any real importance to report. I spend my days looking for work, working on artwork and watching Bleach when I don't want to do any of the above. It's been kinda nice to just sorta sit around and do nothing, I haven't done it in a long time. I will admit, though, it's very weird- doing nothing. It's not my style. I'm used to having something to do 24/7, and I get a litle nervous/twitchy when I don't have something to do all the time. Heh. But that is the game- patience is key. Along with a happy attitude. Getting bogged down in the details and the crap of life is pointless. It does one no good, and at this juncture, it's vital that I stay above it. That I know for sure. But no worries, I'm not one to get bogged down easily. Just not my style. I be too cool for that lol.
So yesh... there is my update. Still eating the contents of my cupboard, so no menus/meals to report, of course. We sitll have quite a bit left, so that's always a good sign. I'm almost to the point that I can survive off of three cups of food... which is kinda scary, when you think about it. Your cereal bowl is probably 2/3 of what I eat in a given day. Creepy.
Tata!
