Tired. As. Heck.

So it's July, that means a new journal entry. Hope everyone in the states had a good Independence Day weekend. I had to spend it working. x.x

So, my family is still in a bit of trouble money-wise. We've got bills to pay this month, plus other unpaid medical ones, and practically nothing to take care of it with. My dad's back at work, but we have no idea when his check's coming. We're basically hanging on with my brother's part-time checks from McDonald's and my full-time ones from Taco Bell.

One of our last hopes was also our spare car, a red Buick, which we put up for sale. Then someone today came to look at it...it was a real quick transaction too, gave us $50 and took the car to change the tires, and promised to come back with $250 later in the day.

Possibly royally duped? Yeah. We're thinking of reporting it stolen, since the guy never came back. But I hope we get something done, because my dad will never give us the end of it, and that also means more pressure on me and my brother despite the fact we have jobs now.

And jobs that we hate. At least I'm starting to hate mine...I'd like working full-time and getting the pay I am, if things there weren't so screwy that more employees seem to be quitting more than are being hired...I had a conversation with both one of the shift managers and a previous employee that things were much better before people were put where they didn't want to be, and thus quit almost perfectly en masse. Meals are paid, breaks are few, and every day I come home with very sore feet and an aching body. And this week I have to work long hours four days in a row.

It must sound like whining from a little weakling, I know. A bunch of you must have it much worse with little complaint. But still, to me, it's crazy. I just wasn't ready for how hectic things are almost every day.

I feel like breaking down, wishing to get the hell out of here. I'm looking for something less hectic at least, because though I have no choice but to work if we're to keep from falling out...and why keep a job if you absolutely hate it and have better opportunities?

Other than the fact that the way my luck's going, nobody else will probably hire me. You get what you get, I guess.

Anyway...the money problems is another thing...which is why I have a proposition. Y'all know I do commissions...well, I would be eternally, wonderfully happy if more people would take me up on them. It's not only a favor to me, but I also love drawing as a hobby, and everyone would also get the best creative work I can put into them.

I've been thinking of joining different art sites in order to advertise my art...I ought to do something at least, because it's more befitting to me, that may also help my family bit by bit.

If not for me, at least peeps should do it for the sake of getting nice piccies from a good fast artist. :3

It's your choice of course. I only have but to try. Commission info is right here: [link]

The rules are still right straightforward, and to the letter as well. I'll never desperate enough to sell my dignity. x3

I hope you all will consider it, after all I would like to try my hand at everyone's ideas. If not, then I'm glad you all are nice enough to listen. ^^ I thank you all a ton for the support I've been getting the last journal entries.

So, until next time I have something to rant about. x3 Ta!

I do NOT have a short attention span! It is simply the fact that I'm so creative that my mind tends to.....HEY! Is that a marble?!?!!??
Yes, I am, but I've kinda lost my muse at the moment. Please be patient, ok? It -does- happen to writers. x3
