Ahhhhhhh, well, my comic is back up but is not updating, and the FTP is not working. So it may be some time before it does update. Last thursday’s comic is flying out in limbo and tomorrow’s comic cannot be uploaded. Ack, way to stick everyone with a cliff-hanger.
Still, at least it’s up and people can peruse the archives if they wish and use the links to other comics. Growl growl growl, if it wasn’t a free site, I might feel more justified in being upset. Wish they’d give more updates on the status of the problem though.
I recently discovered The Tribes webcommunity. The various “tribes” remind me somewhat of yahoogroups, but you can make connections on an individual basis too. Anyway, thought I’d mention it and post the link (which is also an invite to link to me if you join or are already a member of The Tribes).
I wanted to thank everyone for their supportive words. I still don’t know what I’m going to do, but I’m not quite so depressed as I was. It helps that my comic has come back up, even if it’s not updating. I’m considering a move to live with my sister in Illinois, but since she will soon be moving herself, it would be best to wait on that. Still it’s not even close to an ideal situation.
I’m hoping to get enough from my tax return that I’ll be able to pay off my car loan. If I do decided to go to Illinois, I hate the thought of leaving such a large bill over a thousand miles behind me.
I know you must be thinking that I could use the return to rent a place, but it would run out pretty quickly I think, and I’d be back at square one.
Why oh why can’t some unknown rich relative die and leave me a fortune and a mansion?? Is that too much to ask? And I’d definitely invite you all to come stay with me and maybe share the wealth too (if there’s enough).
Oh, and the newsletter might be late this week. I haven’t had the energy to work on it much and I have errands to run tomorrow.

Have you looked at our company’s want ads?
Maybe you should think about paying for a site? (says me who hasn’t even got xanga premium). But I recently updated my own site and it’s much better. And you need to get your ass out of there and move to Illinois. You’re procrastinating too much. Do it. Have a change of scenery, a change of pace, be with people you feel comfortable with. Really, life is to short (a cliche, I know) to have other people try to fuck you up.
We have want ads? I asked one of the supervisors about transfering to another store, and he said I’d have to talk to the manager. The manager would check to see if any stores in the area I want to move to have any FT openings, and then hype me up to them. But since I don’t know exactly where my sister will be moving, I’m afraid to get the ball rolling.
I know KisstheWitch. I am a terrible procrastinator. The problem is, I really like the people I work with now. I’ve never liked the majority of my coworkers at the other jobs I’ve had. There’s only one or two I’d like to get rid of where I work now. Plus, I don’t know if living with my sister would be a good idea. She’s calmed down a lot since she had her baby, but we practically hated each other as kids.
I know… I’m still making excuses.
Still, I think it would be best to wait and see where she’s moving first before I ask about transfering.
