It get's better, we'll get better*

So...I haven't done a proper update entry since June 18th. *sheepish look* Yeah, well, nothing much going on, really.

Still horribly unemployed and basically unable to deal with doing anything about it because I happen to like shooting myself in the foot. The brother's been trying to run intervention on this, but seeing as his pep talks leave me weeping in the corner for the rest of the day, not so much with the helping, that one. Too much, "Look at your life, look at your choices (HINT: they suck and you should do ~something~ about it)" and not enough, "Yeah you can totally dig yourself out of this hole, go you!" Well to be fair he sort of did say those words, but since it was in the sarcastic, "Would you rather I tell you everything's going to be fine and that you are awesome and yay you?" you'll forgive me if I just throw those words out the window.

I've been trying to do things, though, even if I haven't been actively looking for a job.

(Well, I tried twice. Once, I didn't find anything and ended up crying over, well, my life and my [horribly uninformed] choices, and the other time I actually sent out an application, so, y'know, success.)

Basically the things I've been doing include diving headfirst into Teen Wolf and not getting behind on Tumblr (the tiny little sparks of joy in my life), writing up the code for those travel posts (which I keep pushing through mainly because I try to finish what I start, but also because chaosvizier is awesome and provides hilarious captions to the photographs, making it all worthwhile), and making fanart. Oh, I've also stuck pretty well to an exercise regime this past week, even though the temperature here is murderous. Seriously, it's mid thirties all the time and yes that includes goddamnit I want to sleep but instead I'm lying here sweating time.

So that's how I am. A little bit of "lalala I'm not listening", some "let's go into emotional hiberanation!" and some "I. Am. Going. To Die." existential panic. \o/ Anyway, have some thingies I made and some links.

Back Cover, Track List, and Zip

Fanart:

Yeah, it’s all alright. / I guess it’s all alright. - Fun. "All Alright"

Sometimes he dreams of his mother’s eyes / Mostly he’ll just curse the stars - Thea Gilmore, "Due South"

Well hello my little train wreck / I am your worst fear / I’m a mortuary postcard / I’m a graveyard souvenir - Thea Gilmore, "This Town"

The following is a collection of images from Teen Wolf revolving around the theme of power and control, who has it and who doesn't, and when, because Marina and the Diamond's song, "Power and Control" wormed its way into my brain and clung on with all its might.
