I'm a day later than I wanted to be, but I was tired yesterday so I was out like a light after taking care of a gift for my sister's friend (the one of potato salad fame). He liked it anyway, it was my signature stir fry dish, Shitake Stir-Fry. I'll be getting Yesterday's mystery post up shortly so, anyway, too the important stuff.

That placeholder would have worked if I hadn't fallen asleep and not posted when I was supposed to post, but oh well, a day late isnt' all bad.

Thank you very much I do appreciate that. You never know till you look into things like that what'll come up. I'm even starting to look for that kind of thing here in West Virginia too.
That's an understatement for sure. I have been blessed to be healthy, so I do not have a legitimate reason to have not been employed for the past six years. Saying "no one would hire me" is probably the worst sounding excuse there is, but there's no other way to say it. I've applied for job after job after job and not a single employer will hire me.
I can't even get one minimum wage job right now, and like multiplication, it's impossible to multiply any number by zero and get anything but zero. Loans are out of the question for me, I have bad credit as it is, I don't need to make it worse. It's a tough position to be in, and painful too, that's for sure.
If I had the means to pick up and leave West Virginia right now, I would do it in a heartbeat and not look back. While there are things about her I know I would miss, I would not regret saying goodbye and taking my life to that one place I could call my home.
I can sit down and think about moving all I want, but I have to consider where the money would come from to do it, moving isn't cheap. It's easy to say sacrifices might need to be made, but I can't sacrifice what I don't have.
Word does come with some versions of Works, but it's hard to tell. I'd recommend finding a non Microsoft Speech Recognition program anyway, one that does't use the Microsoft engine. I don't know where to fnd such a thing, I haven't been looking, but I'd like to have one too for my own amusement. I write better when I talk it out rather than go straight, silent keyboarding.
If I had the money, I'd get a Mac too.

I left my brain in Robert C Byrd High school, in 1998. It's still sitting on the prop table backstage.
The drawing will be delayed for a while. I have other projects I'm working on that need more attention at the moment, but I will be woring on it every chance I get. Not much goes on for me right now except that I'm swamped with offline projects I need to do. I promise too many people too much of myself. I really need to learn to stop doing that.

Sure, I'm glad to help.
That's good to hear, I hope you get it finished soon.
It sure seems that way, but I make a lot of extra work for myself that I don't really need. Don't know why it just happens.

Well, give me a few minutes and I'll have it up, if it's not by the time you read this.
It must be hard. I have trouble keeping up with the ones I have right now, so if I miss a day on commenting, don't be offended, I'm just too tired to get to everyone's posts, or I may not be on due to the weather.
It would have been irritating for me to have lost more than the one, because the upload process is tedious. One didn't bother me, but I wonder how many people complained about their art vanishing without checking the main page on TheO in the days following the Otakulypse when all of that was explained.
