Well, it's half past midnight. No one to talk to, can't get myself to draw, haven't written anything in over a year now, and video games temporarily losing all luster. Probably be fixed if I get Bloody Roar 4 in the mail tomorrow or if I get lucky and Blockbuster has a copy of Soul Calibur 3 for rent, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.
Anyway, been thinkin. Maybe seven or eight people on my friends list remember me. And I have no interest in the old name, the old interests, the old... well, anything about this particular journal, cept for a few fond memories. Makes me wonder... should I just let this one fade away (like I practically did for a year) and get a new journal, starting a clean slate? Or should I just get off my ass and update the hell outta this one with a new set of info, new interests, and preferably, a new name? (Dracul Silvermoon is someone long since dead in my eyes. A dragon that has moved on and in it's place, an androgynous crossbreed) Something I need to sleep on.
Well, news updates besides that. Helped at elementary school again today, got to see a few neat books that the third and fourth graders are getting in their section of the library. Like a book on my favorite super hero, Green Lantern. Kind of a Justice League America learning book, GL's on inventions (like his power ring being the most advanced invention in the universe... yes, I am a nerd) and honestly even borrowed it to check out information updates on Kyle Rayner, the latest GL. Becoming in touch with one's childhood is always a pleasent experience if you look at your past interests.
Overheard my parents talking. Dad's planning on retiring. And as he's 63 and has been working since he was 25 for the same company, he's had a hell of a run, and with everything getting too technical and new people always causing arguments about different aspects of the office, can't blame him. But I have to wonder and worry... without his source of income, how will life change for me and my family? I know that he'll get a fixed income... but I've seen in the past that those tend to be insufficient half the time. Also, the only thing keeping us in this town was his job and my brother's education at the school which is proficient for the mentally handicapped. Will we move now that his job's gone and that me and my brother have graduated? The thought of moving from this house, old and spider infested as it is, makes me squeamish.
Besides that, nothing much. Planning to get white skin powder and black eyeliner for a halloween costume (going as the Crow. It's either that, an ancient rubber monster mask my dad wore when I was in elementary school, or a full body Scooby Doo costume that made me swore that I would NEVER, EVER want to wear a fursuit, no matter how deep into the furry fandom I delve. Don't ask how I wore it in the first place) and take my neice and nephew trick or treating. And that's about it. Catch ya later... maybe.
