Negative Nancy


The older I become the less I want to be treated like an adult. I don't wanna :(
I did an adult thing that I'm still nervous over; I invested in my own Etsy shop thing. It's gonna be legit and I'm going to push for it to be a secondary source of income so that one day I won't have to work so much! Hah! And maybe go back to school.

I bought a bunch of shipping things like bags and mailers, and even had business cards made. Of course I had to fuck that up by having a typo in it. Thankfully the company credited me back the price of bundles I got, so I was able to reorder another batch. The yucky ones came in today. They're really cute. I think they suit me well.
I feel so stupid for fucking that up.  What a waste.
Also I discovered that my grocery store sells stamps! Of course, just my luck, I go there last night and they tell me a woman had bought all of them already. I couldn't tell you how surprised I was.

The good thing is... I'm doing this. I just hope I don't freak out from pressure and quit.

Baby starts fight with cat

More people from work requested some charms.
I think I feel pressured because theirs are all commission pieces. They're not pieces that I've already made, so I don't know how it'll turn out or anything, and I end up over-doing it and making a product I feel is worth more than what I told them because I was afraid to let them down. I don't know if that makes sense or not.
My style is not consistent at all. Some are rather simple. Some are more elaborate. Some are extremely detailed. I can't seem to stick to one style, which is cool in a way but at the same time can be tiresome. Not knowing how to approach a project can be intimidating.

Speaking of... I have some more pieces I need to finish, but since Rot has the flu I haven't been able to do anything. These were my two days off this week which were spent in darkness and mostly on my phone just playing Happy Street. That wasn't even enjoyable because the developers implemented this new update to change how you upgrade things in the game, and everyone is raging over it.

"we are biting the bullet and we are going to change the cost of the expands of the main street in coins. There are multiple reasons for this change:
1/ Some players are giving up the game in the early levels because they feel pressured to buy flooz and feel like they have to pay to progress.
2/ Having to pay the expand in flooz slows the progression especially in the later levels where expands have a much higher price
"

basically stupid people with ADD were like omg I can't play this game durr change it
and they fucking ruined it for everyone else.
I've purchased flooz ONCE. Every other flooz and expanding and buying premium shit and stuff in the game I EARNED, just like a lot of other people. So they got rid of the flooz to the point where you're kinda fucked and can't get premium shit anymore, but you can expand your land with coins!

 Sorry. Yeah. So... Rot is sick. My computer is in our room so I couldn't use it much. When I was in my room it's dark, and I need my computer for referencing when I make commission pieces so... that was automatically a no. So my last two days off were pretty much shitty. At least this time it's because Rot is legitimately sick and not just hung over.

Point being, I couldn't even enjoy my favorite mobile game because casuals ruined that, too. Just like World of Warcraft.

Okay I'm going to stop ranting now and be positive.

I made these!






That HK and Mario came out so badass.


I wish there was more to write about but this kinda turned into a ranty entry. I've been cranky..

What I need is a nice, relaxing evening in Little Tokyo. Devon is gone, so ... oops. I'm being negative again. But I could go with....! Oh wait, no I can't!
I'd just have to go on my own. I would've liked to go today but... oops.. negativity. Sorry.

Positive.. what's positive? I went to work last night to get my lb of coffee and I ended up coming home with some goodies! They were mostly for Rot, but he's not eating them.

Shit sorry.

Yeah, I can't be positive.
My things will be arriving in the mail soon! But at this rate if Rot doesn't get better I can't make charms. I could go in the living room but fuck that. I need privacy. I NEED it. Otherwise I'll rage quit. It's like someone working, and this kid comes up to you and starts asking you questions about what you're doing and wanting to touch shit and just AAAAGGGHHHH PISS OFF.

You know what? I'm totally pmsing. That has to be it. That and I crave ramen and sushi.
Someone (quiet) bring me sushi. and gimme hugs. and chocolate. and orange juice. How am I not sick yet? I thought I was getting sick because my throat was sore and scratchy for a day, but it's gone now.

Is it time for Disneyland yet? =\
