I don’t get it.
I’m off to do things for the day. Delivering an awesome piece of art and then grabbing a coffee. Laterz~

Looking at my bank account now makes me smile.

family and snarky behaviour
I woke up today expecting a very relaxed, somewhat lazy day. Instead I get bombarded with what is essentially the “rumour mill” from my mom. In this case have it’s more like the end of what is the rumour mill. The truth I guess about most of what has been happening on my dad’s side of the family. It’s not as bad as it seems. Here is the story:
My aunt has gotten herself into quite a few pickles over the last year, they will go unmentioned. After fixing most of her problems, she decided to go into business for herself. Now, my family knows I am a designer. I was approached by her to design a business card. Every time we’d speak, which was over the phone or in person at a whim, I’d tell her to email me the details and then remind her again over a text message. For weeks I got nothing even after sending her texts to remind her. She told people I was ignoring her.
My grandmother manages a banquet hall. I use to wait there as well as bar-tend there. After working 40 hours one week at my job she asked me if I wanted to come to make some extra money at her’s the following. I told her if my schedule allows, I would. She took this as a yes, until a few days before I was suppose to work, I told her I couldn’t due to time constraints.
Both of these stories apparently wind up making both parties mad. Apparently I ignore them and am undeserving of being confronted directly or calmly. They essentially all banded together to be snarky towards me as well as not invite me to a get together this week. My mom thinks it is all my aunts doing as she does cause a lot of problems, she’s old and she likes to spread rumours.

Tonight I did some more art, spoke to an old friend quickly on the phone and cleaned a bit of my desk (which is littered with art supplies). Thankfully I’m not a messy kid, so that is all I needed to clean. For the rest of the night I plan to just kick back and watch a movie. Having a great week!
disgruntled guild and other events
Trivial? Maybe. I had a pow wow session with some disgruntled guild members last night. As an officer, not everything is easier. Dealing with unhappy or distressed raiders is part of my job. Especially in a bigger top end guild. As for sparked this discussion, obviously some guild “drama”. Which I promptly cleared up as soon as possible. After talking with these guys for about two hours trying to calm them down, they definitely had some interesting things to say and some silly things. I do feel I can take away much more as a leader of my guild as a person. It’s a monotonous subject to some (video games and community leadership), though it has always interested me. Hopefully Tuesday raid will be a bit brighter now that they know at least one of the officers is listening to what the people have to say.
Today I am going to see Nadia downtown for some coffee’s and try to clear up some other smaller issues with some of my art. Not to mention I do feel I’ve fallen into that whole ‘pit’ of ignoring people again. I tend to just shut people out when I feel I don’t need their opinions. I need to work on that.
Bleh, can’t spell correctly tonight
Bye tumblr, resting. Long day.
