It's a long road to walk, and the sun's in my eyes.
So, took a...hm, not a break, exactly. More like a minor reprieve from job hunting during the last two weeks due to conventions and being out of town and holidays and stuff. Because it WOULD be my luck to actually get a call back while I was gone, and I wasn't willing to risk it.
But! Cons and other miscellaneous activities are all wrapped up now, and it's back to filling out applications, following up on them, and bugging the shit out of people. If I happen to annoy anyone in the process, well, we'll consider therapeutic, considering the fact that most of their systems probably filter out my application before human eyes ever lay upon it. So, yeah. Even.
Oh god, life is so...tedious? Repetitive? Pointless? right now. God save me and any other unfortunately unemployed soul on the verge of stabbing their eyes out from fighting the system to find work. What a bitch, seriously.
Ahh, and it sucks that, even with all my free time, and all the ideas I have stirring in my head, I can't seem to sit down with any of them and do something. I mean, you'd think. And you'd be wrong.
Fuck.
Anyway.
At least there's a lot of new series being released that I'm interested in. And since I made a new live profile on my Xbox, I've been having to work back through all my games to build up my score again. Easier this go around obviously, having played/beat/etc them at least once before.
Oh god, and Supernatural! Fuck what anyone says, the new season has me salivating. Well...aside from all the Cas fans and Destiel shippers who won't SHUT THE FUCK UP IF GOD FORBID THERE IS NO MENTION OF HIM IN AN EPISODE AND THEREFORE IT SUCKS AND IS RUINED FOR THEM. Seriously, fucking HATE them. I like Cas just as much as the next person, but I'm not losing my fucking mind and bombing the show if I don't see him. I will kill those people.
I'm kind of glad I didn't talk to any other fans at the Chicago convention, because if I had met one of them I probably would've defaulted with a throat-punch. They're just so annoying. Guh.
Oh, and I saw my artist friend again at my local convention! Haven't seen him since last year due to skipping out on AX, and it's always fun to catch up with him. I feel bad though because I unintentionally monopolize his table due to people being unwilling to approach me, let alone go around me. Ha, and I totally blew his mind when he brought up (unfailingly) the subject of whether my roommate and I were dating, and I told him I was asexual. He had no idea about it, didn't even know what it was or that it was actually a thing. Hell, he looked it up that night and then questioned me about it the next day. He was honest to god fascinated.
I'll admit, it was pretty fucking hilarious.
That's pretty much all that's going on now. Maybe in the future I'll have something new to the routine.
