Calmer today.

Well I am a bit calmer today than on Monday. The dust has settled and the good news is that the wife gets to come back to Lansing for work. I no longer have to worry about her driving the 45 minutes to Jackson in the ice and snow. It was scary some nights, but that is over. I'm still mad at Walgreens for passing her up yet again for promotion, but it is what it is. I am a firm believer in that everything comes to a person who waits. And it will come for her. Or not. Whatever is meant to be shall come to pass. It always does. Even if a thing is bad at the time, later on, good things come from it. I am just angered on how it was handled toward her. It seemed disrespectful to dodge her and not answer her as to who, when and why. Almost as if everyone knew it was bullshit, and didn't want to explain it to her cause there is no explanation. Oh well. She is over it and so am I. Onward and upward. But still, for my part, Walgreens will get no more of my money. I continue my boycott, until they can prove to me their bias on promoting women is non-existent. So far, I've seen my girl bust her ass, work and dedicate her life to the place and she keeps getting passed up. There has to be a reason beyond what I can see. It will prove an interesting year to see how this evolves.

Meanwhile as a result of this, some of my 2012 plans are now in jeopardy. My plans to go to NYC and other places are now gone. My ability to finally quit my day job are pretty much gone. Unless my parents hit the lottery or some such thing happens. But I still plan on MSU Forum, Heroes Con and Motor City Con at least. Whatever else shall appear to be a bonus at this point. Sucks, but its the hand I am dealt. The only way to fix it is to generate funds. YOU Can help of course. Visit the ONLINE STORE and order a commission or a book for yourself or a friend. Every little bit helps me keep the business afloat. Appreciate your support in the past and in times to come. Thanks all!

I have spent the last few days working and working on catching up. I am deep into the illustrations for the police short story book. Also I got about a 1/3 of the MARVEL BEGINNINGS cards done. I hope to keep pumping on those the next two days because I work Friday-Saturday. Hopefully all goes smoothly. I could use a break. Last night while drawing the wife and I sat and watched Kill Bill 1-2. Then I fell asleep to reading some Game of Thrones ipad book. A nice distraction.

Oh well. Back at it. Have a great week everyone. and sign all the petitions you can to stop SOPA and PIPA. Or this world is gonna be much different than it is now. Trust me.
