Aww, but I wanted too many details. ~sulk~

Hope you're okay, Dylrob. "Small town" or "big city" blues?

Cheers,

Well okay... basically it's been about half a decade now since my Parents decided to move us from LA to this backwater town of Elko, Nevada. Before we moved I had plans. I wanted to learn Japanese, and take some courses to improve my art. Since we've moved it seems like my whole life has been put on hold!

I mean I did try to take some classes at the local college, but they just didn't offer enough of what I wanted. And then my Mother decided to open a restaurant, so I ended up helping her with that for several years. But that went under. And my parents are close to broke, so I've had to help support them. At least until their house sells... but that's been on the market for over a year, with hardly any interested buyers. As a result I have almost no spending money to speak of.

I have "The Journey to Wild Divine" from http://www.wilddivine.com. I like it quite a bit. I have the sequel, too.

AM likes to do all of her own stunts!

Bless your heart! It does sound like you are spinning your wheels going nowhere, doesn't it. I wish you could get a scholarship that pays enough to cover campus housing, so that you could make a break from home and start your life. You just reminded me why I wouldn't want to be 18 again. That big yawning maw called "the future." Maybe I sympathize so much because I got off to a slow start also. I'll be thinking of you and hoping for the best for you.

But you have US. And thats no small thing.

Do not let it get you down, we've all (us older folks!) struggled while young to get on our feet. You will get where you want to be eventually, you must believe that and continue working towards your goals.

You want to shoot flashing lights at the knife in his head?

(Hmm... remind me to not hire Zelda. I'll have to find someone else to do my blog theme.)

Maybe ZP could find a construction project she has been wanting to do. Some hammering could provide a release for frustration..... Or some demolishing of something is cathartic too.

[vivaldirules]

I say we all calm down, hold hands, and meditate together while we send gentle waves of peace in Zee's direction. And then we should find out who the creep is and beat the crap out of him. Who's in with me?

[nekokami]

Where are those pandorg when we need them? I bet they're handy with baseball bats.

Z-chan, sorry to hear about your horrible client. Have some chocolate... it doesn't fix everything, but it makes life more bearable.
