I love my wife moment #1 billion: Last night, from some deep recess of Brooke's subconscious, she referred to me as the "handsomest man in Eternia." I love my wife.
Meanwhile, back in the outside world, things fare less well, although I remain optimistic. For starters, I got my first official rejection today of my comic writing career. I know it's to be one of many, so I'm not really feeling too down about it, and at least it was a "That's not something we're looking for" rather than a "You suck." Although maybe I do suck and they're afraid to tell me because of who I am. Always a possibility.
My kitty is also sick. In fact, the vet had been telling my mom that she had cancer and to put her down immediately because she wasn't eating and she was starving, until I went over to the house with a different brand of cat food and she started gobbling it down. Then he said that it might be an infection. The fact that he had us putting her to sleep is profoundly disturbing. Don't get me wrong, she's 16, but as long as she's not in any pain I still want to keep her around. She's a great cat.
This week I may actually be getting a free Game Cube and Game Boy Advance. I'll let you know what happens.
For Valentine's Day Brooke got me a new laptop, my dream-item. Now I'm a real writer-boy.
Oh, and she's also one hell of a wife and a wonderful person.
Love you, sweety!
It's been a long time since I posted on here. It's just been busy, that's all. I just got back from taking three personal days off? Why? 2 reasons. First, my comp days from last year expire next month, and second, Brooke had the days off as well. So, while no exotic locations were traveled to, we had a really great time at home, and it was nice to see daylight again.
I haven't been writing as much as I should be or would like to, and I'm worried I'll lose my momentum. I'll have to get back into the mindset. Tomorrow, hopefully, I start making calls to companies. I'll let you know how it goes.
So to summarize, the days are spent with Brooke, watching movies, writing or not writing, and waiting for certain long-promised phone calls *pointed cough*. How are you all doing?
