Accounts
Well what a bummer. I woke up today with an email that says I have no money in the bank. Zilch1 So I dipped once again into my savings...sigh!
I hate the world order. Seems like we can't live without spending money every single day for one thing or another. Maybe that's why I was having so many probems when I used to work. Not that I spent money everyday, but the fact that I knew that working only "paid the bills."
A very long time ago, when I was young I had "visions pf granduer" I guess...I knew what I wanted to be, and how successful I wanted to be. My ideal occupation went from a shirt and tie architechtual-drafting technician, to a suit and tie graphic artist, down to a t-shirted airbrush artist, back up to a suited Pastor. In between the usual rock guitarist, Indy 500 driver, Top Gun Pilot, etc.
I remember however, it all started with me exploring all the library books I could find on space travel. I wanted to be either a Neil Armstrong, or a Chuch Yeager.
SPEED Baby! That's what it was all about.
But I was always drawing, always finding ways of mixing colors on paper. I went from simply pencil on paper, to crayons, to those neat three-color Bic Pens that they still sell. I have two around here somewhere.
I even took up airbrushing after enjoying myself in a class at college. I used to spend 24 hours days in my garage, just airbrushing. Mostly female figures...Country music stars, rock stars, even sports cars. I think I was successful at airbrushing more than at anything else. Heck I even made some good money at it, however few and inbetween the opportunities came in....lowrider bicycle frames, portraits, even a truck tailgate. I want to get back into it...I just need the inspiration and determination.
Somewhere I got involved with the computer...and then everything else pretty much went on the sideline. Games and computer graphics took over my life. Not that I was., or am complaining...but the computer actually stiffles the creative edge, as it does the inspirational edge as well. Maybe I need to become a computer technician.
Oh wait. I've already been one...actually my last successful job was working as a Tech Supprt specialost for Earthlink Internet Services. I loved the job and gave everything I had to helping people solve their internet and online experiences. But due to the way that the employee turnover rate was/is in that field, my account with the company was terminated. Not that I have anything bad to say about Earthlink at all. It's just that the outsourcing companies really suck!
Anyways, I really wanted to stick to the topics of bank accounts, but it seems I have more than financial accounts on my head.
