Oh man, I want that job! I wanna do fun stuff... I don't do anything fun, I haven't gone out in... months. And the last fun thing I did was bowling, and I've only been bowling ONCE since baby girl was born almost a year ago. MY LIFE IS LAME!

I've tried it, but I lose motivation quickly. I need to just try harder.

Minimum wage in Michigan is $7.40 an hour, which is like... nothing. His checks should be about $800, but with taxes, they're only $600, which is crazy! And that is for two weeks. It doesn't help that he doesn't care for his job, which makes me feel bad, because he works all day.

Well we get a lot of clothes from the Salvation army, because they're usually in good condition and cheap, but yeah, she is expensive sometimes. But I love her all the same.

She is on the medicade, so the state insurance, which covers everything. I'm thankful for that, too many people have huge bills because they make too much to get help from the government, but not enough to afford their own insurance. It is a fucked up system.

*squirts you with fun potion*

Trying harder might make it worse lol. Maybe just need to refocus your energy and think of something else you enjoy doing :) Like you children! You like kids!

Ugh taxes are the dirt worse .____.;; They take about $460 off my pay checks every month. *pouts* Not liking your job is never fun...has he been looking into other avenues? Did he go to school for something?

That system is messed up @___@! Free health care in Canada is no joke man, it's a fabulous thing. Takes you forever to get an appointment...but when you do it's free so I guess that's good...I donate to the Salvation army all the time! :D Love those people!

I don't know what I want to do, I need to figure it out. I just... when i have time I don't have any motivation.

Uh, he started going to school, but didn't finish, he stopped and got a job when Onika was born. He doesn't know what he wants to do, either.

I know, they are trying to get free healthcare, and I am for it, but unemployment is so high that they will raise taxes to help fund it, hurting the people who work even more. It is vicious.

Hmmm, I like to find motivation by looking at pretty pictures. If I'm going to design a profile, I like to browse profiles until I see something that inspires me to design. If I want to draw, I'll look at pretty drawings until I feel inspired. If I want to do some photography I look at pictures and so on so forth. I'm sure you've tried that though xD

D8 poop.

It is a vicious cycle, you're right ):

I always do better when it is an 'assignment' or something. :/ I have a commission I need to work on, but it is crappy because what they wanted doesn't really make sense, because they asked for it in pointillism, but they wanted more minimal. And they can't decided if they want realistic or not, so it is annoying.

Oh man I am so with you! I wouldn't be able to take on that commission, would drive me insane. I need details. If they have no details and tell me to do my own thing and I do and then they ask me to change this and that and this because they want it to look like something specific I twitch xD

I just hate people not knowing what they want. If you cant make up your mind then dont ask for something and be picky!

//jumping in here
I'd say if they say do what you want and then ask you to change it yell at them.
"Well you said to do what I want, and I did. If you don't like it then don't tell me to do what I want."

Just throwing in my input.

@ Precarious - Yes! Exactly!

@ Kenome - Ha, I usually tell them to go find someone else in that case 8D

Randeh,
Hm..
Yeah I guess that works also.
Haha!

I also put in my thread that I kinda just draw whatever.
Haha.

Things I can do with one functioning hand... Vote! :3

You only have one functioning hand?!?

OMG LONGCAT WHAT DID YOU DO?
ARE YOU OKAY?

Bear attack. I killed it with a spork. Only lost three fingers off my left hand. No biggy.

BEST.
FREAKING.
ANSWER.
EVER.

glad it was amusing. Nah, I sprained my hand trying to move a big wrought iron fire ring at the camp grounds. Thing is tapped up like a mummy.

Aww!
Well I hope it gets better soon.

Thank you. Lucky my phone only requires one hand for typing, so I can still get my mene on. Also work is boring in the rain (and with one hand) I was going to have things ready at the lake for three holiday weekend but rain and a bad hand make cleaning grill sites difficult. :/

Well Kitteh is getting art supplies in return for the pictures! So yeah... I want them.

LONGCAT! Don't kill bears!

But bears make the best targets for mortal combat! Even better of you can find a sloth of them willing to partake in a battle royale!

And yes the name for a group of bears is a sloth of bears.

i decided to skip over the walls of text and only read the spork bear attack downward. Hope that was okay. xD

I know! Another fun one is a parliment of owls! So fancy.

That would be what owls are called...

I also like a crash of rhinos. :3 the imagery of it is silly.

Or a congregation of gators.

8D That's probably the best way to do it, letting them know first that you do whatever lol. I find my best work comes when people let me do whatever I want.
