Pen and Journal

I try to keep the things I publish here positive. Not always an easy task. I could complain and gripe about people and things that aren’t going well in my life. But honestly, that doesn’t get me anywhere, and I do get some of that stuff out in my pen and ink journal. Some days it’s hard to be positive. So I have chosen to stay silent mostly. But I want to revive this site and force myself to open up and publish more, even if no one reads this stuff.

Work, work, work

My inbox is empty for the first time since 2015. That is all.

Tech Gripe

I’ve been using my iPad Pro in place of a laptop that I can’t afford. My one gripe about typing on Apple’s Smart Keyboard, there is no escape key. It would be convenient to have one so I wouldn’t have to stop typing and reach up to tap the screen. Just saying.

Aches and Pains

It’s been a while since I really updated this site with anything personal. I’ve written mostly with pen and ink in my journal. Most of it is really personal and would not be of any interest to anyone.

I spend my days applying for jobs in San Francisco and Seattle, to no avail. I usually get a “no thank you” email from them company or no response at all. It’s very discouraging. I’m well qualified for these jobs, I just can’t seem to get my foot in the door. I’ve rewritten my résumé to showcase different skills, but nothing seems to matter.

Last weekend I went to the Santa Clarita Comics and Toy Expo. It was a small, first year show. Had a great time meeting everyone. The one drawback is I fell really hard on my right hip and injured it pretty bad. It’s been a week and I still hurt a lot. The pain in my hip and groin is making it difficult to stand, walk, and balance myself. Going to have to start a regiment of Aleve pain killers.
