Minor updates
Today started with suck. I woke up depressed and didn’t get out of that funk for a while. My mom called and I sort of broke down about not having a job and my parent’s health insurance running out on me. She said I need to make a pest of myself, emailing the HR department directly about a week after filling out an online application. I’m just not good at that. I think I should be able to get a job on my merits rather than being the person who badgers them to give me a job. But, usually the people who go after things get what they want. I guess I’m not ambitious enough.
I took a look at my kimono collection and my gothic lolita clothes to see what I’d be willing to part with. There’s two, maybe three, kimono and one dress that could I bear selling. The kimono won’t sell for very much, but I could get a nice sum for the dress. If it comes to it, I can sell more valuable parts of my collection. Luckily kimono and lolita clothes don’t loose much value on the resale market.
Anyway, I’ve got to find something for my mom for both Mother’s day and her birthday. I have no clue what to get her. I think I’m going to check out Etsy because there’s always artsy and funky stuff there. Of course that doesn’t necessarily narrow it down, but it’s a start.
I’ve also updated Eelpoutart with a new-ish layout and some new items. I used me some PHP in that there navigation. I think I really need to sit my butt down and learn PHP. I learned CSS and HTML all by myself, so why not PHP as well?

I’m sorry your day got off to a rough start.
I agree with your mum though, sometimes the people who go after what they want do tend to end up better off. Go make a pest of yourself, lol, it may well be worth it.

Aww - I’m sorry your day got started off badly. I hope you’re a bit cheerier now.
And I’m sure your mom doesn’t need anything super fancy for her birthday or Mother’s Day. Moms are awesome that way; just doing something nice for them, making a great dinner or something similar is enough to make them eternally happy. Try not to worry, you’ll be okay.
