No Wheels
12 years ago
For the past week and a half, I've been stuck without my car. Lucky for me it's not my car that's the problem. Mine is just fine as usual (besides a few minor gripes about it) but my dad's car has died due to the transmission finally giving out on it. So like the last time he had car problems, he's been using my car leaving me at the mercy of others for rides. I've had plenty of errands to do and places to be these and not having a car is slowing me down really bad. His need for a car trumps mine considering his good paying job but what's gotten me upset about it is that he knew weeks ahead of time that the transmission was going bad and waits until it finally dies to see about getting it fixed, right when I need my car most. He even had several days off previously to get it fixed but didn't. I just get tired being used as an emergency safety net when the emergencies are easily predictable and preventable.
I'm glad I wasn't stuck too long at my house, a little longer than necessary but I'm getting back on my schedule for doing artwork again. If everything works out well, it's looking like I may have my car back on Friday but I'm going to be bumming a ride with my sister to take car of some much overdue errands today. I may have some more new art to post soon and consistently as well.
For some good news, I managed to get my computer repaired. It had been giving me problems for a while now when it came to starting it up. Sometimes it would start up, other times it wouldn't even though it had the orange light on on the front of it. Turned out the power supply in it was going bad but I managed to get it replaced and it's back up and running again!
I don't really have a whole lot else going on at the moment. I still have a few commissions to finish up and I got plans for more artwork I want to get done in the coming days, along with another Demordicai Diamonds page or two. Sorry for the delay with new art in the past several days, there will be more coming soon at a good pace once I get all this car business sorted out and I got my wheels again.
Lol, short journal is short and more art coming soon. It's good to be away from my house, with or without my car, and it really makes good for making short journals too, not having to deal with all the drama my brothers instigate and rant on about. Also, not waking up to the smell of mice piss or someone yelling is pretty good too!
