Monday update
Jun. 30th, 2008 10:33 amBusy weekend... I feel like a regular socialite, with everyone calling me on the phone with sympathy. I got emls from some of my coworkers of OMG you're gone we'll miss you, and a coworker-turned-buddy called me and offered resume help and all. Thank you to everyone being supportive. I really am surprisingly okay. Just... moving on.
We finally got a new computer chair, that is to say an actual computer chair, with the swivelly and the going up and down bits and maybe certain people will stop complaining about being too tall for the chair when in front of the comp now.
Finished the commission for Mephron, of his fantastic character Azure Blade. You can find character info on his LJ here.
Lots of talking on the phone.

The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed.
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them ;-)
And I liked the idea that you could strikethrough the books that you hated, so I did.

She and I got into talking over it, because we're not sure what the criteria are. There are so many classics and classic authors completely missing from the list, and then this clearly isn't the top most read or they wouldn't be complaining so many people haven't read them...
Anyway, today is for working on the resume, I'm too lazy to find the tilde for an LJ entry, and I have today left to finish my MGC entry, so we'll see if that happens.
The commission information is still all valid and go and feel free to keep pointing people to that! Thank you to everyone who has! It sounds like I've gotten more work in the 'other' field of commissions, and that's perfectly cool too. I've had jobhunts that lasted long enough to drain my savings before, and I'm remarkably low on savings this time, since the job ended unexpectedly. Income during this time will keep me from flailing at you all going OMG we can't pay the bills. You are all wonderful people for sympathy and art requests.
Have a good Monday!
