So my job description has changed again. Grant writer, quite a job. A job that actually has something to do with my degree. My shitty degree cause I use words that don’t exist in the known English language and have dyslexia so I write words out of order, or misspell them, or put two trains of thought into once sentence and it doesn’t quite work out. Okay, it doesn’t work out at all. At least I have a degree. But I digress. Funny thing: the grant I am trying to get for myself and the first grant I am writing for work come from the same place. I misread the deadline, too. For what my work would be qualified for the deadline is next March, not this March. However, the grant I will be writing is due this March, so I will be working quite a bit between now and then. I am such a lightweight; one beer and I have such a nice buzz on life. I want my very own pub. Not one that I own, but one near by that I can frequent. Rumor has it there will be one, but time will tell. I also want Warren Ellis to be my friend, and people in hell want asylum. I have been reading some of his stuff as of late and I really like his style. It makes me want to write books with pictures in them, but who has time for that right now? I have a bulletin board full of notes and sketches and ideas and I can’t decipher any of it right now. I need new ideas and new inspiration and it just isn’t coming right now. I need to get out of town. I hope to soon. I am too tired. My site is due for a redesign. I am working on that, working at the schools, trying to get acquainted with writing grants and writing and putting together another website and trying to get any ideas at all about anything and being a wife and occasionally a friend when they come around and taking care of my animals and getting a portfolio back together and trying to get a hold of Diane and getting my yard back together and keeping my house in order and man am I tired. Did I say that already? All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day and put the pieces back together my way.
