Vegetable Lasagna

So November is about over. This year has gone by so damn quickly. I'm happy to have gotten rid of a job that was draining me and into a job that I respect and enjoy.

I don't call friends much, but I think about them a lot. I wonder what everyone's doing. I always feel like no one ever calls me, but then I don't really call people either. Mostly because I feel like I'm bothering everyone. Texting helps me keep in touch without really keeping in touch, if that makes any sense.

I got my first paycheck and have already blown through a lot of it. Phone bill, Dad's birthday, and a one-time-only 40% off day at borders. It's still nice not to be bare-bones-broke though.

My new painting is coming along. I've never worked on anything for as long as I've worked on it. I'm actually sort of excited to go work on it tomorrow at school. The painting is basically about being aware. Like being aware of something near you when you're reaching for something else. I'm striving for a higher quality of painting (more layers, cleaner lines, more depth) while still trying new techniques. Everything has worked pretty well so far. I really really need to finish it though. I have 3 more paintings I need to finish fairly soon. I will need a lot of luck.

As for my other class, I created a storyboard for a flash website, but it's a little over-ambitious, so I think I'm just going to do another little monster animation. I know I'd like to do a Bludgeon animation, and I did have an idea, but I don't like it as much as I originally did. I need to come up with something else. It will be the final project.
