good news/bad news
had much fun at the lake with liana, as always. swam, played with neighbors pets, went out on the party barge, watched movies, etc. the usual lake fun-ness. the water is still a bit cold, but that really doesnt matter. the sun was warm enough if the water got too cold. we took my dog, oreo, out on a raft. he wasnt pleased with us. (he hates water) one of the neighbors has two cats, tommy and tita, and we played with them for over an hour. some other neighbors have 3 chesapeake bay retrievers, gypsy (daughter), ally (mother) and jesse (grandmother). we played with them for a long time, and it was fun. we were both drenched afterwards, but it was fun. and there are all the other dock-dogs: oreo, zeus, gidgit, parker, rerun, etc, that are always around. it rained a lot yesterday (memorial day) tho. no fun.

no new art as of yet. i failed to force liana to hold still so i could use her as a model for a realistic pic. i shall try again at some point.

now for the good news/bad news.
good news: i now have a job. im the delivery driver for my dads company, and driving around all day isnt near as bad to me as sitting in a desk or bagging groceries. its $8/ hour, 8 hours a day, every day. you do the math. thats not bad for a college kid, eh?

bad news: 8-5 every day is not at all what i had wanted. nor did i really want a job that was intense physical work. mind you, i can do it, but i dont enjoy hauling 30 lb boxes up stairs. also, i cannot take off early, i cant miss days, i cant have vacations. ever. at all.

more good news: no nights or weekends. ever. i can do 8-5, so long as im given my nights and weekends.

so thats where things stand. i start today. sadly, its supposed to rain all week. >p more on that as things develope.

quote of the day:
"A warrior stays to fight...even when the hope has left." -Hiei (Yu Yu Hakusho)

what? i like hiei quotes. they always have a good meaning or some morbid humor.
