Negative:I said no more depressing journals, but it's seriously hard to live up to that sometimes. Last night I had to take my mom to the hospital because her valley fever (we assume) was acting up. She was doubled over in pain, had swollen wrists and ankles, was starting to get this weird rash, and was just in overall agony. When we finally got to the E.R., we had to wait for an hour and a half, possibly two hours, to get into an E.R. room. after that, we had to wait another five hours to get her admitted and into an actual room. The only chair that I had to sit on was one of those shitty little rolling stools. e__e So, needless to say, it REALLY SUCKED.

Obviously, she missed Thanksgiving. Even worse, it was my brother's very first Thanksgiving, so she was pretty upset (not that he can eat any solid food yet, but still). So we had to make her a plate and bring it up to the hospital. To make matters worse, we have no clue how long she'll be there because the "specialist" still has not seen her. I'm getting a little fucking frustrated with the healthcare system in general around here.

Positive: But anyways, back to the happy. Today was Thanksgiving and I ate way too much food, as is custom on this day. It was really damn good. I hope that I can go steal some leftovers from my grandma's house tomorrow.

In the morning I'm planning on cleaning the house. We're supposed to start putting up our Christmas things the day after Thanksgiving, but since Mom isn't home, I'm not sure when we'll do it. But I figure I should get things ready to start, not to mention that Mom would die of joy if she came home and the house was clean. Plus, it's one step closer to having a house clean enough to sell (we've been house hunting lately...).

Indifferent: I'm trying to improve my art. Trying to draw some different things or whatever. I mean, since the dawn of freaking time all I've drawn is chicks standing there and it's boring and retarded and I'm tired of it. I guess I seem to be moving more towards animals, since the last few things I've drawn involved penguins and a coyote and a dog. I'd be pretty damn happy if I became an animal-artist-type-person. I'd be happy if I could get the title of "artist" at all, truthfully, so I'm just looking for some general improvements in content and style. So hopefully you can expect to see some different things from me soon.

On a completely unrelated note, I have suddenly been introduced to the drama involving Amuria and I am completely and totally entertained by it. I am planning to sit back, watch the show, and enjoy it heartily.
