Chalcedony Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 but phoenix is awfulIt's a bit like Cleveland, just more spread-out, slightly cleaner, and with palm trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I regularly take dumps that are cleaner than Cleveland. No palm trees, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 You sure did. And I made you do this: I know I haven't posted much but I've been lurking around. Ok I'm lying. This is the first time I've been here since July. But, facebook sucks and I miss this shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lace Mindu Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Ok people. Please pop into Nightly to at least keep us all up to date with the major goings on in your lives. I want to know if any of the following change: your marital status, your number of children, your area code, etc. Um, I got some new boots? Oh and a new dog after the last one died on Memorial Day. Everything else is the same: same house, same job, same cars. *sigh* It's the longest I've ever been in a job though (8 years). I would've left but they gave me a promotion and raise last year. That's wearing thin, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalcedony Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 I'm living in Phoenix now, Paradise Valley to be specific. I'm staying with a friend in her apartment but will be moving to my own place tomorrow. I like this area and was lucky to get an apartment fairly quickly that I can actually afford, AND which is pet friendly. That's one of the main reasons why I moved here: there are way more cat-friendly rentals here than in Prescott, where hardly anyone allows pets of any kind other than service dogs. (Tough luck if you have a service monkey, I guess.) The other reason is that there are more jobs here. I managed to get some seasonal work at the Honeybaked Ham Cafe within a couple of weeks of moving here. It isn't much, but it's still more than what I could get in Prescott. Once I get set up with Internet service, I'm going to start applying for freelance illustration jobs and art commissions. I can do pet portraits, too, if anyone is interested! Here is Howie, a Boston terrier: I sketched him on paper first, then mucked about with different brushes, colors, and settings in Photoshop until I liked how he looked. I wanted some color but also wanted to keep the hand-drawn sketchy look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas1138 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I've just dropped in to say that I appreciate that in 2014 Chalcedony, Link, and Lace (hey Mindy!) are posting on NN with semi-regularity. I approve! Hope everything is going well with settling in and all that, Chalc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalcedony Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 It's going to cost $80 to turn on the electricity, but I still owe $102 on the bill from my previous place (overdue because of crappy circumstances and no money). I don't have enough money to pay both, but they won't turn on the power at the new place until I pay off that overdue bill! I swear, every time I get close to accomplishing something, there's always something else in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElfinYoda Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Sorry to hear of your trials and tribbles Chalc! Hopefully the bumps in your road get repaved soon and you can relax and enjoy this next path in your life. *hugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
