Today is the day I print up that letter, and send it on it's way. I'll be feeling so much better once I get that done with. The weight of it on my shoulders is too much for me. then I have to apply myself to my art a bit, and my offline writing project, and some other things I've been neglecting. I'll be all right, but I may take this weekend to rest after this roller coaster week.
It's Friday, the 13th. Lucky for some, unlucky for others, just another day to others.

Well said, very wise words indeed. I'll keep them in mind, they do ring true. That said, I chose wisely to cut the other half of the picture this time around, because there ae multiple elements that I need to practice before coming close to what I want in terms of the look I'm seeking.
And that's part of the process, imperfect perfection.
I can't really explain the emotional structure of this half of the piece without doing the very thing I don't like to do, and that's explaining my artwork. I do like the suggestion of annoyance though, so I'm going to roll with one as the dominant emoton for the piece :P
Now that's a compliment I'll cherish dearly. I never try to impact my audience so deeply, but it means the world a few times over to hear that I've done that, even in a small way. For the record, that's supposed to be whtdragon in her dragon form. You'll have to check her portfolio for her pictures of her other forms, and this for the other challenge submissions.
I don't see a solution for the problem coming, so there's never going to be the closure that I would like to have, but I will move on because dwelling on what happened over a year ago now isn't going to fix a broken system, it isn't going to open deliberately deaf ears, and it's not going to get me a job. It's just not worth the fight. Captain Ahab may have been willing to pursue his demon to the depths of Hell, but I'm not going to be that reckless, or stupid. The Holiday season is coming up, so a lot of places will be looking for employees. That's not much to go on, but it gives me a base to work from. All I can do is mail the letter, and then I'm finished with the whole thing.

Yes, that half of the picture is great, I'm not saying it isn't. The other half, the part I didn't post is what troubles me. I don't intend to let it fall by the wayside either. I will attempt it again after I hone my skill with some aggressive training in the coming weeks.
The only thing wrong with the rain is, this house has leaks in the roof which have to be fixed. I keep pushing fro a pro to do it, because no one in my family is really up for a three story climb up a ladder to do it ourselves. Since pros cost money, it keeps getting put off.

Snow already? Wow. I like the snow, it's the only thing that makes the cold tolerable. I hate the cold if there's no snow to justify it. Changes in the weather can cause headaches, it happens to me all the time.
