It's not easy being a sea dragon (complaints)
15 years ago
I still haven't heard anything back from town council about the approval of my dolphin event and it's already July! Nobody is interested in helping either. I can't get any musicians I know involved except for one, but I need to secure a drum kit first. (Funny enough, he used to bully me in middle school) I still have no designs for a poster or flyers. That's as much my fault as anyone else's, but my art style seems to be softer and deals more with internal issues instead of conflicts between good and evil or engaging people's passion. If it doesn't work out I'll just send (and encourage everyone else to) oodles of cash to Sea Shepherd or Earth Island Institute.
I haven't heard anything new about the gulf of Mexico. Last I heard the Hurricane was moving west and the relief rig captains were saying "it will miss us. NOTHING WILL GO WRONG."
My boat is moving awfully slowly. I can't get the trailer registered. I suspect that I'd been had. With some story about the previous owner dying of cancer and a lot of strange things that don't work on the boat. The boat itself is very rare and said to be the Mercedes of day cruisers back in the 70s but whoever owned it before me was obviously a land lubber who didn't know the difference between starboard and his ass. My friend told me they make plates for home built trailers. I said it might as well be home built when I'm done with it. If it get the fiberglass repaired on the boat, and paint the bottom with antifouling paint, she can sit on a mooring while I figure out what to do about a trailer. I might have to buy a new one anyway.
I want to sail in Hawaii this winter. But I STILL haven't received my ASA certifications. I called the school and the captain said he entered it into the computer himself so they should arrive in a few weeks. That was last month. Don't get me wrong, the school surpassed my expectations with actually teaching the stuff, but their organization sucks. I need at least 2 more sailors to make a good sail crew. Most of my friends aren't sailing material. They'd complain about sore hands or a rocking boat all week.
Anyway, it's nice weather here so far and I have monday off again. if I ever go inside today I might paint something. :3

All I have is words of encouragement.
sorry about the other stuff. :( It sucks to get ripped off by someone, especially if it's one of those cases where you feel bad for someone, and you find out later they're con artists -.-;
At least the boat is mine. I think I will just look for another trailer and cannibalize this one for what little parts it has that are in good condition and give the rest to someone I know who collects scrap metal. When I do get the boat in ship shape condition it should be alright.
