Thank You, Sir, May I Have Another?!

Long time since my last post...I've been so freakin' busy lately, I feel kind of overwhelmed and stretched out...

So, let's see...we went to see Get Smart...it was pretty freakin' hilarious...definitely gonna buy that one on the ol' digital versatile disc...
We have yet to see Wall-E...and then Hellboy 2 next week...and The Dark Knight the week after that...those are the must sees this summer...we're gonna see Batman on the regular screen then we're gonna go see it in IMAX...

We went to a Tacoma Rainiers game last weekend...they played the Salt Lake Bees and kicked their asses...10-3...though Rose was rooting for Salt Lake and their catcher who she thought was cute...it was a fun time and a good game...
I have some pictures, I'll post a few in the next few days hopefully...
This weekend we're going to see the Mariners play the Tigers...should be good...I'll have plenty of pics from that too...

Well, I had a job interview on Monday for a graphic design job here in town...needless to say, I don't think it went very well...I don't think she was too impressed with me or my work...I always botch it in interviews...I practice how to answer and then I get on the spot and freeze up...I don't think I'm good enough right now for a graphic design job...
I'm pissed because I spent $20 just to print out some stuff for my portfolio...Rose bought me a new shirt and tie...and my mom bought me a portfolio and a case...I really had a good feeling...before the interview...
She kept bringing up my comic stuff as if it was a detriment...everytime I've gone in to an interview for a job like that, they turn my comic stuff against, suggesting that that's all I can do or that's all I want to do...it kinda pisses me off...I try to turn it positive and say that there's a lot of graphic design in comics and that graphic design experience would help with my comics down the line, but I don't think that gets their attention...
I guess it's back to the drawing board...

I'm just kind of depressed right now...it seems like I can't get a job I would do well at, only shit jobs that I can't physically do...it's very frustrating and it makes me mad...

Maybe I should step up the comic stuff...

It's been hot.

I guess I should finish cleaning up...

I shall report again later...

Face Front, True Believers!

I'm sorry to hear about your disappointing interview. Don't give up! Consider it a practice interview. Keep trying. It takes a lot of dedication and determination to find the right job.

I know you can do it! I think I'll see tomorrow at Taco night! Hopefully I'll get to meet Rose. :)
