the past few months when people have asked me what i've been doing i've been telling them that i've been doing "unemployed sidequests" as a lighthearted way of saying that i'm doing stuff but not much that furthers my position in life. this month i did a bunch of unemployed sidequests and some of them progressed the game (my life).
long story short i've been going out more on my own accord to work on being a less reclusive person. and since i've been in a bit of a creative low point i took it upon myself to seek advice from friends and acquaintances whose situations parallel mine in some way. the conclusion i've made from the perspectives i've gathered is that it'd help my situation to get a part-time job.
so i did the whole process of applying and interviewing this month and got hired for retail job at a store i like. minimum wage is not lit but it's life rn. it's a pill i didn't wanna swallow cause i used to imagine it as compromising on my ambitions or goals somewhat. but i had to think about it to realize that most of my art friends have part-time retail jobs. so i was like oh yeah this is normal and chill.
it'll be nice to Make money and get out a couple more times a week. i'm just hoping workin retail helps recharge my creative battery rather than drain it. i've got a good attitude about it so i'm thinkin it'll be alright. i'll let u know in a month.
and yeah as usual i spent time w/ my awesome partner and my awesome family and friends and ate delicious good good and made lifelong memories and had fun and smiled and stuff this month like usual.
