So I'm out of work again. The Census work comes in shifts so right now we're eligible for unemployment and then we can be re-hired for the next phase in July. I hope I get picked b/c they told our team that we did a good job. And you can't beat $19.95 an hour. Well, you can but you know what I mean.
I haven't been writing much lately because of working odd hours, but since I'm done now I will get back to it. I want and need to finish Waiting and finish re-tooling the bus scene in the fic
haylzee and I are working on. It's been too long and my fingers are itching.
I also want to start writing my own book and get it published. I just lack motivation, but not the imagination--if that makes sense. I know I can come up with something good, I have way too many plots in my head not to do something--or go somewhere--with this, so I need to get cracking. I have to be able to support myself and my mother somehow since me finishing college doesn't look likely anytime soon.
Oh, didn't I mention? My dad is still going back to live in Trinidad even after my mom got sick. I mean, true to his credit, he did stay for about six months and she is technically recovered from her hospital ordeal, but it still sucks. Plus, get this: He is now buying acrylic paints in order to start painting murals. The man has never painted a thing in his life and he doesn't even have definite quarters to live in comfortably in Trinidad--let alone a refrigerator or car--yet he's buying acrylic paints. What the fuck?
And AT&T needs to stop calling our house with this high speed internet bullshit. I already tried to do the DSL connection through them and they sent me all the stuff only for them to tell me later (when it didn't work) that we didn't have a good enough connection for us to get the DSL. So now, I will stick with my verizon wireless satellite card. It's small, simple and best of all, it works. That's good enough for me. I mean is it just me that hates all this complicated connection crap when involving satellite and cable and all that jazz? It's annoying as fuck.
Now I'm irritated and I want ice-cream, dammit. *pouts*
