dolariThere's so much I want to say right now but my computer is dictating for me and it doesn't dictate all that well. As per previous posts, unadulterated text follows.
First off, my hand doing extremely well today, and I really wanted to have a home cooked meal...so I made some dinner. That was a mistake. First of the food wasn't that good. Second I made the mistake of stirring the pasta with my right hand . All day my hand was really good, only numb on the middle finger and only on the left side, and then one quick stir with my right hand and my wrist went pop. A quick stinger, and suddenly I'm completely numb. It would've been worth it if the dinner was good.
I figured out looking online, that what I've got is definitely some sort of carpal tunnel syndrome, probably made worse by the allergy. My mom had carpal tunnel syndrome, and he ended up having surgery for it. But this was back when people believe that CTS was caused by repetitive motion and not just aggravated by repetitive motion. I'm hoping it doesn't go to that level, because I just don't have the cash for that. For right now, I just need to keep it flat, try not to use it, and ice it to keep the swelling now. There was an old trick , back when I had physical therapy on my ankles, to get the swelling down. First you soak it in hot water for three minutes , then put it in ice for three minutes. Repeat seven times and that killed all the swelling. It worked for my ankle, I wonder if it'll work for my hand.
Since I can't draw, I've been going kind of stir crazy,and trying to find something to do art wise. I was listening to Neal Adams on the Art Bell show, and how started Continuity Comics back in the eighties. This was back when comic companies owned everything you drew , and Continuity Comics alongside Comico and later Image sprang up to protect artist's rights . So I got kind of nostalgic and decided to read up on Comico, when I came across their Primer comic. Primer was a comic where amateurs got four or five pages all to themselves in an actual honest to god comic book. You got to see some franchises like the Maxx and Grendel.
I suddenly got it in my head that this might be a good avenue to explore.I know a lot of transsexual artists or artists who do transsexual themed comics , and I know a company that prints comic style books on demand . I've had "Blacktab Publishing" since the eighties when I was a kid. I've put that imprint on the upcoming A Wish for Wings book, more of a little conceit than actually making a comic company. But mainly, we could actually getting together and do something primer-ish, and start a small studio or something. It doesn't have to focus on transsexuality, maybe it could focus on webcomics in general. Or maybe it's just cabing fever.
A fan donated a substantial amount of money to help "me." I now have a fairly decent nest egg on a new apartment. But, there may be something more in store. I've had a lot of folks outside of Texas telling me that I need to get out of Texas. I've had a plan to get out of Texas , but that plan was to stay here in Austin for a year and buy a new vehicle , then moved to Seattle for a year and save the money and then finally moved to Canada a year after that. I actually talked that over with my dad, and he was very proud of me for planning that far ahead (he was also proud that I was willing to get away from a world that was aiming its target at me).
I have a nest egg. It's become very tempting to just up and go to Seattle on that. A friend of mine, who I trust very much, has offered her place for me to stay at least for a few weeks. I'm very tempted to take the offer. I'm also relieved really scared. I am up and moved once before, and that was to Pennsylvania. In all, Pennsylvania wasn't a bad experience . I had no money than just like now and ended up staying for five years. However, I also spent three of those years unemployed. And while my love was very patient with me then, the person I'm moving in with is not my love. If I went, there would be no parachutes . If I went, I may end up leaving the truck on the side of the road when it breaks down. There are a lot of ifs . Maybe too many. But I can't really stay in this house , and if I have to leave and I still don't have the job, maybe Seattle would be a much more friendly place than my parents'.
Or I could use that money and go to a doctor. My fear with that, would be that I don't have enough for everything he's going to want to do. A doctor's visit alone would eat up a lot of that money, and I may not have enough for the medication that he wants to prescribe. This has happened before, where I walked in with the sniffle and walked out with a $400.00 prescription. Well, it was $40.00 for me to $360.00 for the insurance company. This time however I would pay the bill.
I'm up for suggestions from the peanut gallery. I'm really torn as to what to do. There are three choices, and all of them are up in the air.
Everyone says Seattle is some sort of liberal wonderland, it sure as hell better be. :)
Same goes for Canada.
I know I'm missing something , I hope I remember when I wake up. Anyway, here's the untouched text.

Date: 2006-03-17 09:05 pm (UTC)For the QWERTY apologists, if the layout is so good, why did its own creator try to replace it in 1901 (by then it was already so entrenched that Sholes himself couldn't kill it)?
