INSPIRE ME

I hate drawing, which has been a progressive trend for the last decade. Give me an idea for something to draw that I want to draw, and not only will I (obviously) draw it, but you get free commissions for life.  ...Which may be a worthless prize, since I can't draw anymore.  SPIN THE WHEEL, GIVE IT A SHOT.

I am afraid.

1 min read
I have not drawn and/or been paid for my efforts in five years other than my day job, which celebrates my minor skills in Photoshop frequently at my usual hourly wage that would make a "professional" artist (or myself, in high school alone) recoil in horror.

It doesn't matter.  Where I once loved to paint and create, I now dread art.  It is a chore that I cannot be paid enough for.

Fucking sad, and I hate it.  I wish I never accepted payment for this fucking shit.

One day, I'm going to write a book about my job (in middle-management at the missouri humane society).

Last night a beagle was brought in by animal control. It had a collar with a name ("Kisser") and ID tag, but the phone number was outdated, so couldn't contact the owner.

Beagle was fine when I left for the evening, and I was the last one out. First one in in the morning, and I find the beagle dead, having tried to push through the bottom of the chain link front of the kennel, and got stuck, strangling himself trying to get back out. Got to take pictures and pry him out with pliers myself.

Which was bad.

Later this afternoon, nice guy and his kids came in looking for his lost beagle named Kisser. Yeah, I got to tell him why he wasn't getting his beagle back. Because our old stray runs suck because we have no budget, his dog died on my property, in my care.

...that, now that I have been for the past few hours, my hand is cramping up horribly and my pinky finger is bruised where it presses against my tablet.

Ow.  Art is painful.  ;__;

I'm going to cut them.

I'm going to cut them so bad they're gonna wish I didn't cut them so bad.

...Random thought over.
