Bunch of stuff:
This is gonna be a long post...you've been warned.
1) Holiday Depression
As some of you know, the holidays are when my depression hits me hardest. It's started early this year, and it's been hitting me kinda hard. Been thinking a lot about Mom, and how I miss her (who else didn't see that one coming?), unfortunately, I'm having really bad issues with it this year. I've already started having weird dreams about her and the family. Had some dreams where my dad and I were on good terms again. Had still others where I hadn't heard from Mom in several years, and none of us knew why.
Yeah, it's getting bad.
2) Mandy and I are ok
Mandy and I are doing well so far. I've met her folks and her sisters (and their husbands), so far all is well. She's met my family (aka. my really good friends, including but not limited to John, Cameron, Chuck, Ari, and Mal). Everyone has said they like her. I'm slowly bringing her to the darkside of gaming (video games and the like). We spent the holiday break playing lots and lots of Puzzle Fighter HD on XBOX 360. I beat her 9 times out of 10, and she accused me (jokingly) of cheating. It was fun. I really really like her, and I seriously hope things continue going this well between us.
3) Work
I'm trying to leave GOT-JUNK. I'm sick of it. No raise. Decreased hours (beyond what others are dealing with). Lack of respect. And that whole fire-rehire bullshit from last week, I'm fed up. I'm doing everything I can to get myself fired so I can get unemployment. This leads to the next section.
4) Job hunting
Yeah, I'm job hunting, I'm looking inside and out of NJ. I'm really hunting, and not just for filmwork. On the plus side, I just received contact from an organization looking for a sports videographer. They came to me. This is a good thing. I'll keep you all posted on this. If anyone knows any organization or company looking for people and is paying 12$/hour or better, and is offering benefits, please drop me a line. Thanks.
5) Blood and Leather
I'm working on getting things ready to post up Blood and Leather, along with the rules and stuff on the website. It's coming, be patient.
