...is primarily my day job. I've got some changes coming that will hopefully leave me with more energy, more drive and less of a desire to throttle the customers who make stupid comments. I current roast outside for the vast majority of every shift, so I have no energy to do anything beyond any current commissions I happen to have when I get home (and most of those have been costuming related for the last couple months). I'm suppose to be switched to an inside position very soon, and will also be more mobile than I currently am. Both of those should make me feel more like myself and I'll hopefully have more of an artistic drive as a result.

As a side note, despite the coming improvements in my current day job life, I've decided to look at going back to college to earn a second degree. One that would serve me much better where I live so I won't be stuck in the soul-sucking job I currently have forever in order to pay the bills. I'm currently looking at how I might manage to accomplish going back to college without destroying myself financially (since I already have a student loan in my home country to deal with because of my first college degree)...but I really need to get the training I need to get a job that's challenging and more satisfying. My current day job is neither.
