Man. I almost forgot about this journal...
Not that I have anything to update about. Uh, other than the fact I have a dog, a pit bull cross. I'm still working at the clinic, and I'm still drawing from time to time, but haven't really had the urge to get back into the Halo stuff.
That's about it.

Consider all previous art-sale posts closed.
I have a job now, so it's not a matter of me needing money anymore.
Hell, pactically no one wants to buy my stuff anyway, so it's not like anybody's missing out. People preffer to just right-click and print out my digital stuff for free.
There won't be any more art posts online however, not for a long while anyway. I'm way to busy with this job. The hours are long, it's exausting, and I have no time or energy once I manage to drag myself home.

What would you pay for this painting?
http://www.deviantart.com/view/3729265/
It's painted on stretch canvas btw... not board canvas. It'd be a hassle to ship, but I'm willing to do it.
I need input on this guys, so please comment with your ideas as to what I should charge.
I can take cash (US or Canadian), or paypal.
I'm despirately trying to rebuild my stash. Even at the cost of the few paintings I kept after the move.
Thanks in advance.

Jeeze, life blows up in my face, I can't draw or entertain people with my art for a few months, and I'm dropped like a hot potato....
Can't help but feel a little bit dejected by that. Fandoms can be so damn fickle. People I thought were friends stop talkin' to me... just because there's no art to oogle. It's sad.
I get the urge to try drawing something halo related from time to time, but something always seems to happen that sucks the wind out of my sails.
Maybe when life stops kicking me in the face, I might start drawing again in earnest...

Wow. I didn't post at all in March? Hrmm... oh well. Nothing to post about I guess.
One of these days I'll have a real reason to update this thing. Hopefully.

In case people haven't noticed, there have been a few new images posted on dA, and SheezyArt.
Nothing new has been added to my site however. I haven't had the time to attempt an update since the move (it's going to take forever).
Not that it matters to some ppl, none of it is Halo related...
I just can't seem to draw Halo stuff anymore. Between that disaster that was Halo 2(that put me into a six month depression), and the stress of 2005 that followed, I just lost the urge. I've noticed that some people I thought of as friends have stopped talking to me since then. I guess all they cared about was the free art.... honestly I shouldn't be suprised. Fandoms are so fickle. If they're not ripping my stuff off to use as forum Avatars or banners (or flat-out copying), they're snubbing me because I haven't drawn an Elite in almost a year. 9_9 -__-'
Hardly the kind of thing to motivate someone to draw.
Oh well. I was a fantasy artist before Halo, and I'll continue to be a fantasy artist years after the fandom dies completely. At least that'll never change.

I'm contemplating taking my worthless drawings off the internet. I'm also contemplating leaving the net completely myself.
There's nothing left for me here. The net is to full of noobs, drama, stress, and stupidity. And I'm to jaded, bitter, and sick of life to deal with it anymore.
I've found myself loathing art. Both the process and the result. It's not worth it anymore. It's not gotten me anywhere, dispite all the effort.
Nothing in my life has changed over the past four years, nothing for the better anyway. It's just been a constant slide since 2001, getting worse and worse. I'm sick of it.
I can't even get a dog because I'm so poor animal rescues just laugh at me, and that will never change. I'll always be poor. What the fuck is the point of anything anymore? They talk about setting goals in that stupid course I'm stuck in. Well they can shove their goals up their collective asses, because I ain't buyin' it. Life is bullshit. I'm not playing that game anymore.

The West Jersey Animal Shelter is closing at the end of this month. The Pennsauken, NJ shelter had it's license revoked due to unkept and dangerous conditions for the animals. There are currently 31 dogs and 5 cats on the premises that are in desperate need of adoption. If these animals are not adopted by the end of the month, they will be euthanized.
The West Jersey Animal Shelter is open for adoptions Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. and from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Phone (856) 486-2180.
I DONT CARE WHERE YOU LIVE WE ALL GOT FRIENDS ON OUR LISTS FROM ALL OVER THE USA PLEASE PLEASE REPOST EVERY REPOST COULD SAVE A ANIMALS LIFE IN NEED
Even if you can't adopt an animal, please repost this.. Eventually it will reach someone you can.. Even if only one pet is adopted, that's still a big difference for that animal's life..

Cross post widely if at all possible.
In other news, life is settling down. I've started to draw again, and starting next tuesday I'll be in a pre-employment course that will hopefully help me to become more hire-able n' stuff. Things are stable, and rent isn't an issue. Things are pretty good right now here, and are bound to keep getting better.
I need to update this thing more often.... x__X

Our move to a new home will be completed tomorrow when we pull the last of our furnature and things from our Storage Locker.
We've got the net, but it's God awefull, slow.... not much better than 56k. It's keeping me from being as active online as I used to be. But hopefully once we get comfortable with our new, extremely small budget, we might be able to swing a minimal upgrade that might get us back to normal, or close to it. Then I can start uploading art again, etc.
No. I've not gotten any form of employment yet. I'm on Social Assistance and it takes both me and my bro' combined to afford our pathetic rent, plus bills for the phone, net, tv, etc. Workfare is going to have me jumping through a lot of hoops until I find a 'real job' and get off their system, which means it's likely that I still won't be uploading much new stuff, thanks to the fact all my time will be taken up with Manditory Comunity Service and whatever other b.s. they have me doing.
Otherwise things are okay for now. Money is extremely tight, but we have a roof over our head, the pets are safe, and we've got the net.
I guess I'll keep everyone posted as I find the time to get online more.

Not so good news. Today was absolutely fucking horrible. The worst thing that could happen has happened.
I've got nowhere to move to tomorrow. The thing with the place we were going to move fell through, and there's NOTHING I can do about it until next week. Of course, after the weekend I won't have a house to live in, and nobody is willing to let me and my bro' stay over(parents included), even for just a few days.
Movers will probably be taking the 'stuff' to a storage locker, but plants and pets... *shrug*
Don't know where we'll be going after sunday. That's as long as we can stay here according to what we've been told. Though I can't help but doubt that because of how everyone's been blowing smoke up our asses all week.
Monday we have to go back to Social Services, and give them the fucking Promiss of Address papers we got signed by Bob. Then after one business day we'll hear back from the Ontario Government that they'll pay the First and Last on the place or not.... once Bob gets the money he wants, he'll give us the keys. But that won't happen for god know's how long... a week or more maybe.
Most likely this will be my last LJ post. I don't even know why we still have net access honestly....
After Monday, I don't know where we'll be. I don't know where the pets are going to go. I don't know anything anymore....
I WILL BE LOOSING MY NET AND PHONE BY TOMORROW. THERE WILL BE NO WAY FOR ANYONE TO CONTACT ME VIA THE INTERNET (so stop emailing me). I WILL PUBLICLY INFORM EVERYONE VIA THIS LJ WHEN THAT CHANGES (obviously).

So. This is probably my last day online.
Yesterday was fucking nuts.
Cent' stayed up all night last night, he didn't want to go to bed because he was going to go look at a basement apartment at 6 in the morning today. Then he's going to go look at other places that were on the list we got from the Housing Help group with his friend (I would have gone with him, but I have to go back up to Tappscot & Finch, basically the other end of the f'ing city to drop off a blank check at the Workfare office).
( About the apartment I checked out yesterday... )
So anyway, I don't yet have a new address or anything... nothing's confirmed either way. The movers are coming Saturday evening and so we have to have a place to go by then or else we'll have to get the movers to put all our stuff in storage.
Kinda funny that neither of my parents are even giving us any money to do any of this shit(movers, food, busfare[which is fucking expensive!] or anything else). Guess it just goes to show how much neither of them gives a rat's ass what happens to us or if we can get things done.
All I can say is thank the powers that be for friends and kind strangers on the intenet! Without you people, both me and my bro' would be up shit's creek without a paddle. Many hugs and <3's to you all.
Take care of yourselves, stay safe. Hopefully one day soon I'll be able to get back online and catch up with you all, and start putting art online again. :P

NIN- The Fragile (Disc 1): The Day the World Went Away. |

I still have the net. For a week or so at least.
All art that was bought has been mailed out.
My situation has not improved in the slightest. I still have no place to go in less than 13 days, no income, no assistance, and no hope left.
It's just not worth being around anymore. This world is so evil, twisted, broken, and full of people who deserve do die that I can't stand being here....

Within the next 7 days or so, I will be loosing all internet access.
Dad desided not to pay for the net up to the end of the month. So that's that. Nothing more I can say about it.
I will not be able to inform anyone of any change of address or phone numbers to contact me by(assuming I'm not living under an overpass throughout the winter). I do not expect to 'go to a library' as some people have suggested, as there are none in the area. Our local one closed down and won't be reopening for months as they're building a new facility to house it...
I guess I'll be able to make a post or two more before things go down, but I doubt they'll be anything significant.
All artwork payed for will be mailed out this week. Period.
That is all.
