Terrible month
16 years ago
Kibbles Scratch pad
So as July rolls on out I took this morning to think about things. The month started off good but hectic with Anthrocon. About a week before AC I got a call from the shop to come back to work. For those that know I was laid off since the end of December due to work slowing down, I got lucky and got a job doing vehicle repo's. Even though it was fun I was running 96 hours a week some weeks and was missing alot of time with my friends. So I got called back to work, I worked about four days then headed to AC. I had a total blast at AC, special thanks to
shiroelex and
jellybeans95 as well as
czgoldedition and her mate Shyz. Those four among many others made my AC great this year.
So AC's over and im back home and back to work, feel good and im getting bills caught up. I have one of my project car's going great and just things going good in general. I have got all my paperwork in for school and im rather excited to go. So things are trucking along and a few days after AC my thunderbird (that has been running great) is now acting up AGAIN..... frustrating me and Shiro try everything. After about two weeks I found the problem in the last place I looked. Apparently some of the loose rust that was in the tank from the car sitting for four years with a full tank of fuel had come loose. Basically turning into what looked like thick mud in the bottom of the tank and plugging up the pickup for the fuel pump. Twenty dollars later and the cars running great.
Tuesday the 14th rolls around and I punch into work and I'm getting my tools out to start a build when me and four others get called into the office only to be told we are AGAIN being laid off and we can go home until they need us. By now im rather pissed and head home. So I have been job hunting since then and im just keeping up on stuff. On a plus side I dropped off all the material to
czgoldedition to build my new fursuit head and got to hang out for a few hours. Had a great time and im amazed how quick she is getting him built. So im rather excited to get started on the body and have it ready for MFF.
Last week once again my Tbird started acting up again. Dropped another $20 at the parts store, replaced the fuel filter and the fuel pump pickup filter and its rolling fine again. On top of all this its down to the wire for my school stuff, all my paperwork is in and im just waiting to hear where im going to be living for the next 6-9 months, but I still have to get either a few scholarships or loans to cover the rest of the $27,000 for school. So ya im freaking about that. On the plus side I had a preinterview yesterday with O'riley auto parts for a morning shift, so im keeping my fingers crossed.
As you can see this months has been a roller coaster. I was happy to get called back to work and I had AC coming too, then I get laid off again. fursuit stuff and my car have been a plus, but having trouble finding a job and the pressure of getting stuff ready for school has kind of been a downer for me. I guess im lucky to have such good friends in my life and well hope to find a loving mate some time here. Im looking forward to school (going to WyoTec in Blairsville PA), and rather excited to have a new suit in time for MFF. I thank everyone for all the support this month, the cuddles and the help *pokes Shiro*. Just another hurtle in life. I keep a positive outlook on everything and well things will get better as I go, I just got to keep my head up
