I have missed being here, friends. I have missed writing, and creating….and, well. Life - well work, mostly - has been shit. Actually, things are decent at home, and I’m grateful for that. If I didn’t have a solid and safe space here, I surely would have lost my shit by now.
I’m covering for twooffices now (handling about 100 employees for direct end user support by myself), with no additional financial compensation. I’m interviewing for other jobs. No word yet on the one I actually interviewed for. Oh - and the guy who I was backing up in the other office, that I am now fully covering? HE GOT A PROMOTION. Not for an IT position though - he applied for an admin job, and got it. (and oddly enough, the admins earn a hella lot more than IT here which is….odd, and after 26 years of going nowhere I am fucking done).
Well. That turned into a work rant….heh…sorry about that. Anyway. I’m here, now anyway, and I want to be here more. I think I need a space to write and create and stuff. Tomorrow, I am going to make pizza, chill, and write and paint.
These stars were never mine to chase, I’ll chase them anyway, take me to a land far away. This path was never mine to take. Was my fate set in stone or just one thread in the great wide unknown…

<3 these two. Yeah, I know they’re married now and all the ‘mechanics’ of their relationship have been figured out, but I’m not there yet! I’m still back in the 90s.
Also, yes…more messy sketc lines. At this point I’m just going to call it a stylistic choice, because it sounds better than admitting laziness.
