Huh.

Two days after moving everything into the new office, my wireless connection decided to die, once and for all, instead of just threatening to like it has been for months. 

Which effectively renders my entire office setup useless until I can afford and acquire a 75 foot ethernet cable. 

I’m writing this from my father’s computer, which gives me the crawling horrors, since in order to use it I must have the largest room in the house at my back.  Neurotic Alamaris does not do well with enormous open spaces behind her.

In the grand scheme of things, this doesn’t come anywhere near the sort of catastrophic business and household related disasters we have nightmares about, but nevertheless, it still blows dead bears.  Especially since I sold over two hundred books today just to make enough money to pay my bills, and couldn’t be more broke if I tried.

Given the lack of doors in the rest of the household and my mother’s inability to understand “quiet homework time” even when faced with absurdly convoluted death threats, I don’t even think math is on the table for the next week or two.  So far the plan is to rage, swear, curse, yell, and then make jewelry for three days without sleeping.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go read about the history of homosexual representation in Muslim art and grump for the rest of the evening.

i just made the WORLD’S WORST piña colada

the best part was that I made it to get over the despair from buying glass-bottle soda and finding out that it was flat

INCOMPETENCE 101

Anyway, I’m hoping to work on that great big enormous Art Thing over the weekend and maybe have some inks up soon?  Tomorrow I’m going shopping with the Ladyfriend and taking her out for dinner, but I might be able to get some work done in the morning.  I’m back to working a few days a week at my old job after taking a few months off, so here’s my chance to try being super productive and juggling school and work and novel writing and concept art and making things to sell!  Kill me.

Seriously though, I’m looking forward to having a busy schedule.  I function so much better at a frenetic pace.

Have a good night, my tumblr-darlings.

So we don’t have a car anymore.

We live in a small town, the nearest big city being a half-hour drive away.  Or an hour by bus.  Or two hours by bike.

It’s all 1940’s over here.

What that means is that when I manage to get to the big city, I buy a lot of stuff that I can’t normally get in town.

This means trying to make a list and not being able to remember the eighteen thousand things I said I needed over the last few months.

*tears out hair*
