You have no idea how happy I am to be going back to work today. I've missed being able to get, well, anything done. Tired of sitting on my ass watching movies, reading comics, hanging... out...
Why do I want to go back to work again? OH, right. The routine, I miss the routine. Getting out and about, doing stuff, going to the Salvation Army store. Just want to be back to a regular routine. Although, I will say this, while I don't miss summer camp, I might actually miss the schedule. I hate working mornings, but I have to admit, it was great getting home by 4 PM. Man, that felt good. I could actually cook dinner and eat at a reasonable time. Going back today, I START at 3 PM and leave at 6, so the earliest I'll get home is... 7:30. THEN I have to cook.
Oy. At least I'll be up late nights again, when I tend to get my best art done.
Oh, and getting paid a real paycheck (even though I don't know what I'm getting paid yet. Seriously, I don't. First day of work and I have no idea what I'm getting paid. THE %^@&?!). Those are nice. Unemployment don't pay ish.
Yeah. So. Back to work. I'm actually looking forward to this. And I got all of Christmas break off. Nice.

I know what you mean about having a set routine, it's nice having everything on a schedule. Good for you man, glad you're excited about it. I wondered what teachers did during the summer months. Is that the expected thing, to collect unemployment? I mean, do the school systems suggest doing that or try to dissuade people from doing that? Regardless, you have to live. Just wondered what their stance on it was is all.
Congrats on the new school year. Hope it's a good one for you. Being an artist, I hope you really do it up for the kids at Halloween.

Sadly, I can't be all ZOMBIE AND GORE for Halloween because I work with elementary age kids. I'm not even allowed violence of any type, really. I will occasionally break that rule, but not in my lessons in general.
I think I will draw a few coloring sheets for them this year around pumpkins.

Nothing better than being a kid at Halloween. Magical time I wish I could go back to.
