About My Jimmies

Rate this Entry
Yaaargh, I wish I could manage to get everything together lately. I've been trying to prioritize writing, but with all the jumbled stuff I've got to do, that's pretty difficult.

Thinking it over, I've got to go search for jobs, write out applications for medical insurance while also figuring them out, make time to write, cure my addition to Fallout: New Vegas, maintain a regular human life, do more job searching, ad infinitum. It's too tangled and just annoys me to no end. No matter what, I end up with less and less time to write, and the time that I do have I just spend playing Fallout because I'm lazy and I'm an addict.

Unfortunately, with job searching, it ends up being less of a productive use of time and more an exercise in me wandering around town for an hour or two to appease my parents. The idea of diminishing returns is heavily in effect here, and I can name maybe four or five places I haven't applied to, and they're most likely not hiring.

But still, my parents get annoyed when I stay at home and don't do much, even when there's nothing really for me to do on the job front.

I'm really just running out of enthusiasm for a lot of things, and I take up video games, especially Fallout, to fill that void in me. Less people are reading The Manhattan Project II than before, and writing it almost becomes a chore, but I continue it out of enjoyment and my desire to tell the story. I don't know how long that enthusiasm is going to last, though. I've variously lost some of my best readers over the past few months, and I can't help those thoughts from burrowing into my mind.

Sometimes I don't even know what I should be doing anymore.

    Spinach, why would you redirect someone to reddit. That's specifically outlawed under the Geneva conventions.

    And I3uster, /v/ is dead, all true fans go to /vg/ now, duhhh.

    Because jimmies used to be cool, then /v/ got ahold of them and they became almost unacceptable, and then reddit got ahold of them and nobody wants to associate with >>>/reddit/

    (actually I don't remember if that shit started on /a/ or /v/, but it took a while for people to start connecting it with /v/)

    But Zidan, there are no jobs. And also MPII isn't getting written as much as it should.

    MPII is more important than income. It's more fun to write than just random porn. :|

    Should I spam commentary for every single chapter of MPII, Fivers? *is kicked*
    But yeah, hope things get better for you, man.
