My week of sin



I found this awesome site where you can browse through old scanned copies of Xmas catalogs. I don't know about you, but I used to pour over those each Xmas! Especially the late 80's ones. Check this site out. Its really cool and a trip back in time before the internetsss.

Well, my week was kinda uneventful. Money is tight so we didn't do much. I got my comics on Wednesday and I mostly sat at home with the kid while the wife worked mid-shifts. There is a great possibility for a promotion in her future very soon and I am hoping like hell that she gets it. She certainly deserves it. We could use a nice assuring pat on the back for all our efforts in this life for once. Cause if this doesn't happen, I don't know what the next step will be. Beyond some extreme depression, natch.

I'm growing more and more hateful of my day job situation. Shit has went down there and certain situations have made me once again wake up to the truth of how it REALLY is there. I'm finding it harder and harder to turn the other cheek to some of the stuff that goes on and I am just ready to be rid of it for good. I wish I could afford to quit now, but I cannot. Unless freelance work increases or she gets a promotion, I don't see how that can be a possibility. And the concept that once again I am stuck in a moment I can't get out of is a huge boot on my chest, pushing me down to where I cannot breathe. I'm really trying not to stress myself with it cause the place and the people don't deserve my attention nor my stress, but I'm finding it more and more difficult. I try to put on a front and just joke around, but inside I just want to run FAR FAR FAR AWAY. A lot of my co-workers in the part I am in are good people. But after all I have seen and know about, I just know, that world is over for me. Its been fun to look behind the curtain, but I've seen too much. FAR too much.

Besides, I am meant to do my art thang and thats what I am doing. I hear word that the MArvel cards are finally coming my way this next week. I got new commissions coming up from overseas and orders on the Cheesecake 2012 pinup/sketchbook are coming in. I'm off to an exciting new future. Onward and upward I say. Fuck it. I'm moving on baby.

Have a great week folks!
