. . .When Darknesss Comes. . .
Well, I'm worn out right now, but I've got a bunch of things to do before I can get some rest so, I'll try to be quick.
Here is the gryphon picture, the important part anyway. Apparently 18" by 24" paper doesn't line up well with the chip in my digital camera, so some of it got cut off. Now that it's done, I can get back to work on Sanosuke. For the record, my sister liked the picture, more than she said, but I could feel it, and to me, that's a big reason why I do this kind of thing.

I can be proud of the fact that I got myself through the interview process, because more exposure to that part of job hunting will eventually get me a job I think. And to be honest, I'm relieved that I didn't get this hotel job. My instinct told me when I met with the general manager that I wasn't the right personality type for the job, I'm too independant. I've learned the hard way that my intuition isn't wrong about this kind of thing, and my inner voice was screaming at me "Don't take this job!" so I wouldn't have taken it if it was offered to me anyway. Holiday Inn can go [
Censored] themselves for all I care. When they want to let creative people flourish, I'll gladly give them another try.
The focal point of my oddball style is my art, which my family humors, but sometimes I think their support is more for show to keep my spirits up than it is genuine, though, I'm probably just being paranoid about it and not seeing the truth right in front of me. I'm not too sure they fully understand why I'm passionate about this art style, but it's hard for me to explain it to them. Animé found me when I wasn't really feeling good about myself, and through it I've seen that I can overcome any obstacle set in my path, and shouldn't be discouraged by small setbacks, or the large ones (job hunting anyone?). I guess I relate to the style on a more personal level than they do, though my mother was a bit surprised to find out both Speed Racer and Gigantor (the space age robot) [she always says it with the part in parentheses, has something to do with the opening theme song, but I don't know any more than that] were both early imports of Japanese animation. I don't think she saw the original Astro Boy, but I can't be too sure. At any rate, I get the feeling from my family that they tolerate my oddball sense, while not really liking me to perpetuate it the way I do. I'd be more down to earth and serious if I had a real job. . .
. . .NOT!!! I'll always be a nutcase.
Oh, I'll make something come along for myself if nothing else comes my way. I was mad as all [
Censored] the day I got off the phone with my US Senator's office about the discrimination I was dealt at the Job Service. That "staff assistant" didn't offer me any kind of assistance with resolving the issue. Well, since I wasn't going to get any help on any level, I put a plan together that very day, and I'm currently working on it. When it's ready, I'll announce it here, not before. I do appreciate the support, and I'll take any help I can get, including Divine.
