Hey gang, sorry for the large gap in postings but I've been in the process of moving and I've neglected to keep posting. I've finally settled in and got everything pretty much put in place. I've even got a room dedicated as the art room, whereas before it was just a desk in my bedroom.

I've been applying to jobs like crazy, because although ideally I want to be supported solely by my art, right now it isn't enough to keep me going. I had 3 interviews yesterday and one of them that I set up was from a really vague craigslist posting so I went not even knowing what the job was...turns out it was a door-to-door Kirby vacuum salesman, but the pay they boasted was outstanding. The interview went fine and the guy said I'd get a call if I got the job. So I left and about 2 hours later I got the call...but I had been thinking about it and I really don't think I want to sell my soul for any amount of money... because firstly I don't think people actually have souls, I just think it's pragmatic for illustrations sake; secondly, I decided that I'm really not that into money; and finally, I hate pushing sells on people.
So I told the guy, Bob, that I didn't want the job but he just kept trying to get me to do it...but I stayed strong and said "NI!". Later in the evening I had another interview with the owner of a janitorial/carpet cleaning service, we met inside a Wendy's restaurant and it went great! I got the job, and I will be working alone late nights which suits me fine.
