Fuck i keep making terrible choices in life. And i've pretty much been seeking out things that gave me childhood joy (Pokemon cards and games) to avoid thinking about how unappealing my future seems. It's pathetic because i know what i gotta do to move forward but i don't make the step. Hearing 'lol you gota just do it' doesn't work either.

I mean god everyone i know makes work sound like the worst thing on the planet. And it looks like finishing my degree is just more money towards a worthless piece of paper…Even mom called me a loser the other day.

I feel like an angsty teenager again craaaaap *hot topic violin made of razor blades plays*

It always feels that way, but degrees do make a difference when going for jobs.
Working is a pain in a lot of ways, but you have a lot more freedom to do the things you want and money to buy the stuff you want ^_^

Money is useful… and addictive

Looking in a big old dictionary the other day for "catamount" I came across some new (OLD) words:

*Catamite- boy kept by a pervert for… -_-
*Cataphract- armoured like a armadillo.
*Cataphasia- a mental condition where your brain goes funny and you keep on repeating the answer to a question over and over… (that was the definition… sort of)
*Catamenses- (thank that's the spelling) monthly period.
*Catamnesis- patient history, given after discharge from hospital.

Catamite is the best one though. That is a fantastic insult.

I woke up today with a sore throat and tickly ears and a stuffed-feeling face and a headache… I am hoping this is one of those mornings where it's because the weather is changing, and if you hang in there you feel okay by lunchtime. Because I don't want to be sick. Normally I would just be working through it but the headache is making that difficult. At least the work I have to do today is pretty undemanding, and even maybe a bit fun. I might even be able to do it in bed if I use my little laptop… hmm….

Shit's gonna happen regardless make the best of it.

A degree doesn't make you smarter or better but it does prove you worked to get it, Also makes you more employable. Once you have it no one is taking it away.
There is nothing wrong with work… depending on where you work and who you work with/for. Sometimes you have to take the rough with the smooth.

I've loved most of my jobs, the ones I haven't loved are the ones I left.

My biggest regret is letting ill health and poor finances prevent me from getting a degree.

So that's why you don't make any comics, you went the whole hog and stopped doing ANY detail.

That's not true, I just drew one yesterday.


It's on;y a matter of time :)

I got a shock when I saw the now updating in your sig.

I may actually check your comic out….

Gosh I hope so - there's a horrible one doing the rounds: My wife's been off all week which is totally unheard of, my kids are throwing up all over the place and I feel how crap must feel when it's feeling crap.
You know when you get that semi hallucinatory vibe going? I made the mistake of YouTubing a song I haven't heard since I was 7 and now I have this playing in my head twenty four seven.


Nice Nesmith vocal though.

Genejoke, you should! Oh wait, you did! (Thanks for all the comments!) You know, Ironscarf's Emily England is updating again too…. if HE could update, then I could too. (His comic is one worthy of appreciation!)

Ironscarf- I don't think it is a flu thing, I think it is a sinus thing. My throat feels better but my head is doing a weird disconnected thing. When I turn it too fast or walk around too much I get all disoriented. HEAD FLUIDS Anyway I am sorry to hear that your whole family is sick, that sounds pretty rotten. I hope you guys feel better soon.

I am pretty lucky when it comes to sickness, I can't remember the last time I was out more than a day. So I'm betting this will be gone by tomorrow. (Which is good.)

Ill, stressed or exhausted? Yesterday I had a really productive day.. today had been rubbish. Managed to letter one page and do a couple of panels of another. lame.

I'm so tired… I haven't slept enough this week, again. going to bed at 4 and 5 am every night and getting up at 8. I'm a… Melon-farmer (there you go Ironscarf).

Plus, my foot hurts for some reason. Not sure why, but I think it may be the crappy shoes I wore yesterday.

The weather is horrible and HOT here. -_-

——————–

Ok, Skool and I do Quackcast 15 tonight! We worked way too hard on the preparation for this one. Waaaaay too hard. We have no idea what difference it'll make to have 7 bajillion hours worth of research to refer to, but I think we should read out our notes in news reader voice just for the fun of it. :)

My dad called the vet today…so far everything is looking good for Buddy. :)

He said the lump on his neck looked harmless, and the one on his side looked "interesting"(so it might have been bad) but also very self-contained, so he's pretty confident it didn't spread anywhere. But we still have to wait for the tests from his lumps to come back.

I think Buddy is totally playing it up, though. He hasn't wanted to eat his dry food much(although he ate a bit today), but he munches on his bull pizzle when I leave the room and he tried to chase one of the cats, so I'm pretty sure he's feeling better. I think he just knows we'll give him wet food if he refuses his dry.

Edit: I forgot to say thanks to everyone for being so awesome and caring about my poor doggy. : )

It was them in agreement with the admins and mods. The place was… diseased.

We can mention it, but we developed our own taboo about doing so because whenever someone did then the same silly people with their silly behaviour who influenced us to close it down would start up that behaviour again in whatever thread it was mentioned. :)
