After I figured out how to navigate the homophobes by not giving a fuck, the place was enjoyable and I might come back next year since like three of the racist boomers are retiring.

Trying to adjust to the empty house but it's hard. It's so quiet, and usually when it was this quiet it was because someone was mad. Hard to get used to.

Apparently they claim that they do this every year to prepare for the windy season. I cannot imagine a worse excuse. But I also REALLY want to be a fly on the wall in their media room right now, because if this was the BEST they could come up with as an excuse I really, really want to know what the other fucking options were.

They couldnt come up with a better excuse because the writers are on strike.

From 2019-2021, I worked on developing a coloring book that was themed around animals and plants that were just a little bit odd. Life got a little bit busy as it does and the project lost its momentum and I'm releasing what I did for the project as a printable collection on Ko-Fi, Pay What You Want with a minimum bid of $1.

I'm planning on making more coloring pages in the future, so keep an eye out for that.

Have fun coloring! =]

Every day I look at the towns facebook group and get the ever-growing sense that I'm in an American adaptation of Hot Fuzz.

"Our neighborhood is in trouble! The city approved a zoning change and they are allowing commercial buildings to encroach on our quiet community!"

It's an old folks home and a mid-price restaurant along the lake shore where previously there was undeveloped land. None of yall complained about the 2 dunkin donuts and I see talks trash in my parks.

Shut up and eat a bagel.

"This town is going downhill fast!"

Good.

I hope yall move out to the country and put your houses up for cheap.

Taking down unapproved street signs on parks property might not be the most glamorous part of being a maintenance person, but I took so much joy in stealing the 'Vote Yes on Issue 1' sign on one of our park streets.

It's very possible that this wasn't their fault, but I really hope the vinegar and salt bomb I made in the garage was enough to kill the larvae.

After cleaning out her room, roommate A isn't allowed to criticize my cleaning habits ever again.

Day 47/50

Today we were putting our trash in the dumpster when Archer says:

"What is that lady doing?"

I look over. She's got her trunk open and she's in the grass, sprinkling some carrots on the ground.

We, being in a big white truck with emergency lights on top, get noticed by her and she gets into her car with the trunk still open and drives around to the community compost bins to dump the rest.

...what?

It's been so long since I've had to make meals for two instead of six, and my cooking has improve significantly, that I have to relearn how to shop smaller portions and halve a recipe.

Trying to identify a bird, but can't get a clear photo.

Ohio, waterfowl.

Shaped like a heron or crane, approximately same size, but feathers are black.

I want to add it to my coloring book list, but I want it properly annotated.

Could it be a cormorant???

Holy shit! Your new woodcut-style colouring pages are amazing! I am also stunned and amazed (and jelly on a personal level) at how fast you're able to complete them. The quality of the lines and black-white balance is just... dayum. I wouldn't even colour them - they're perfect as they are.

One of the great things about coloring pages is that dont have to color them. I know people who prefer black and white art and they just frame them and put them on the wall like that.

And I've always been really fast at drawing, which was why I wanted to be a storyboarder. But alas... alack...

I will say, though, that I did have a handful done before I started posting them, so time passed is not the same as time spent. But yeah, I guess when I put it in perspective 2-3 doesn't seem like a long time to spend on something, even though this is very much a flow thing for me.
