Alrighty Then!
Ok, as I promised I would really update things.
So the past few weeks have been really intense with my family. My grandmother was rushed to the hospital with conjestive heart failure and 10% of her kidneys working. UGH!!! My grandmother waits until the last moment to go to the hospital. Oh, and to boot, when she called in before being admitted they told to take some allergy medicine. Wtf... Oh, it doesn't stop there. Two days after my grandmother went to the hospital my grandfather fall down a proch and breaks his hip. -palm to face- He ended up have hip-replacement surgery and put into a nursing home, because the hospital didn't want to handle him. Luckily the nursing home is only 5 minutes away from their house. So my mother flew out to see her parents had help deal with the mess. She was gone for about 2 weeks. Things were very different at home, but not terrible. I luckily had work and friends to keep me busy, because if I had time to myself I would be feel overwhelmed. When my mom came back from St. Louis (that is where my grandparents live), I was like, "something isn't right.." And since then my mom hasn't been 100%. Even today I have be kind and do what she tells me to do. I can't imagine how she is feeling... There is a possible chance that I may have a wedding to go to in June, which is near my grandparents. I really hope they are better by then. I don't want to see them in that state and have that be my last memory of them.
Today I have officially worked at Aaron Brothers for 6 fricking years. I have been working there since senior year of high school. Ok, let me ask you, is that bad? Recently there have been some policy changes at work, and now I'm working pretty much full-time to keep my lead position. I honestly feel like I've lost time to work on my artwork, cosplay, workout, etc. Ugh, I feel myself getting fatter.. and with everything going on I know I haven't been eating exactly the right foods. So I have considered stepping down to just become an associate until I have an industry job. My art is really suffering!! I've been coming up with some great ideas, but I haven't been able to act upon them. Times like this make me really miss school. I felt so productive and inspired. It makes me worry that no one will even bother to look at my stuff, and then I'm really taking a personal hit. It sucks how personal artwork is. I keep being told I'm great at what I do, but why doesn't anyone want to hire me? If it is because I've worked at Aaron Brothers for as long as I have I'm going to kick someone's ass! Well I guess I could try shooting for working in Aaron Brother's visual department, but that would mean moving to Texas. Ugh, damn it I need a sign!!!! -flails-
