Dr. Blog...

So, I had that job interview today...I think it went pretty well, though the commute was a little rough...took me almost an hour to get to Issaquah from Sumner...and it took me 2 hours to get home...but, I'll do the drive if I get the job...I'm not complainin', I'm just complaining...

I started school again...I'm not as psyched as I was this time last quarter, mostly because I'm not sure if I even wanna keep doing graphic design because, well, frankly, I suck at it...I should just stick to illustration and get those comic submissions done...and with the job I'll be able to start buying stuff to sell on ebay...so, everybody pray for me!

One of my instructors is an old teacher from the Art Institute...so, that's kinda surreal having him teach me again...especially since I had to take his class twice at AIS...this should be interesting...

Man, I'm getting lazy with these things...not sure what else to write about....

So, here's the word of the day...

pittance (pit' ens) - noun: a very small and inadequate quantity, especially of money.

Damn You, World of Warcraft...

Yes, I've been re-sucked in...hence, the reason I haven't posted in a couple days...I gotta get as much time in as I can before school starts again on Monday...blech...

At least I found time to get a job interview...Yep, it's at PetSmart in Issaquah...yeah, it's a bit of a drive, but I'm willing to take a bullet for the paycheck...it's working in their "PetsHotel" thing which, I'm assuming, is a boarding service...
I have plenty of experience in that...I worked at the vet clinic doing just that and I also worked at Banfield which I forgot to mention, but that I'll just slip into the conversation during the interview...Banfield, by the way, is owned by PetSmart...ah ha! Now it comes together...

So, I went to this game store at the mall...they boast that they have the World of Warcraft TCG...2 big ass banners in the window, etc...so, I walk in there, looking around...finally, I find the card games, shoved in one corner of the store and behind the counter and it's nothing but Magic...I'm looking, I'm looking...the only WoW TCG item I find is a fucking playmat...so, I keep looking...plenty of Star Wars miniatures and Heroclix and Scene It and all those god-awful "Opoly" games...then as I'm leaving, I see it...one paltry box of WoW booster packs...that's it...after all that boasting and that's all they have?! Good Lord...

I also managed to get some time in to clean my room...some of it anyway...

I'm going to play poker again tomorrow...and watch the Seahawks playoff game...gotta watch some Bond to get my mojo...it really worked for me after I saw Casino Royale...I'm still 4 for 4 in our poker games...J and I are tied, both having lost and won the same amount of games...I guess we just kick ass....

Wish me luck...

Back to defending The Horde...

The New Year'sa Heresa....

Well, it's officially 2007...I hope everyone had a nice hangover today...my new year's was spent in my undies flipping through the channels, not finding a damn thing on and hopping back and forth between the TV and computer...
So, I started playing World of Warcraft again...thought it was time I get my 53 Dwarf Hunter up to 60 sometime before the expansion comes out...it doesn't help not having a guild or even any friends who play on your server anymore (thanks, Chris)...but, I'm slowly but surely getting there...
I've also thought about getting the World of Warcraft card game that came out a few months ago...been looking on ebay for starter sets...found a couple good hits...I'll probably peruse the stores tomorrow...

I really wanna get my ebay business going, but there's that little nuisance called money...my mom's offered to be my partner, so we'll see how that goes...

The job search is a pain in the ass...been putting out applications and resumes and no hits at all...that's why I need my ebay business...so I can say "fuck you" to the asshats who didn't gimme a chance...

Sorry...bitter again...

I'd just love to be my own boss and not have to worry about impressing other people just to get a shitty job...it seems like such a waste...

So, I got my final grades from this last quarter of school...I think one of my teachers just passed me so she wouldn't have to deal with me again...she's not gonna be very happy when my ugly mug shows up in her Desktop Publishing II class on January 10th...
I'm just glad that quarter is over...hopefully, this next one will be a little better since it's only 3 classes instead of 4 and only one is a gen ed class...though, the gen ed classes were a lot easier than my core design classes...so, we'll see...

I think I should get started on my comic pages I plan to submit...probably won't hear anything, but it's worth a try...

I think first I'm gonna do a Superman one...I'm gonna do my version of the helicopter rescue from the first movie...that should be interesting...

Speaking of Superman, I just finished the first 4 seasons of Smallville with my mom...I got her hooked on that show...but, I don't have season 5 yet, so we're stuck on a cliffhanger...well, I've seen the premiere of 5, but I haven't seen the whole season, but I know the main points...so, I've been on the lookout for it...I think I'll find the best deal on ebay...I went to Best Buy to find it (the day of that little "accident"), but they were out...and I think theirs is a little pricey anyway...so, I'm still looking around...

OK, well, I've rambled enough, so I'm outtie...

Peace, y'all...
