Cara's Originally Titled OoC Hangout Thread ♥ (Still)

That's pretty cool :) Wish I was good enough of an artist to be able to do something like that XD

[Carantathraiel]

xD there's tons of other artists here trying to sell their stuff, so i dont get much. but i like what i do. I made a letter monogram for myself and my husband <3 I love it XD i really just wanna get stateside so i can attempt to get a legit job.

[Daxam]

Anything specific you want or are you happy with anything?

[Carantathraiel]

i would LOVE another job at Barnes & Noble Like, i will beeline there when we arrive XD I don't have the education for anything too high paying, unfortunately. though, in the US's economy, it probably wouldn't help.

[Daxam]

Hey, as long as you have a job, everything should work out XD

[Carantathraiel]

I hope so XD I mean damn, being unemployed and overseas bites.

[Daxam]

Hell, just being unemployed bites. I have been for a few years XD

[Carantathraiel]

Yeah. :/ I worked in germany as a teacher for the DODEA on base. Turns out, kids are nightmares. XD So i quit. [that and transportation issues] Here, I just haven't bothered trying to get hired.

[Daxam]

There really is no point when you have no idea when you'll be shipped out again, anyway. At least the military's putting you up somewhere, right?

[Carantathraiel]

We're in a house, yes XD but oh man. it sucks. There's no air flow in the kitchen or mudroom, so it gets unnaturally hot in summer with the high humidity. the windows leak when it rains, so it sucks during typhoon season. They're yanking up all the water pipes in the yard to replace them so constantly out of water or can't drink the water, etc. The did something with the water pipes on the other side of the house and now the shower floods when we use it. Everything outside is poisonous, from the snails to the plants. so dogs need to be watched closely. specially my yorkie, because he's a little shit. But. Bleh. Is fairly soundproof, which is nice when you have fighter jets screeching overhead at 7am, then the tractors at 8 @-@ is sound, for the earth quakes. and free AC/Heater in the other rooms. It could be loads worse. XD i just want my own house so i can paint and decorate and have a garden. *sigh*

[Daxam]

Here's another plus for you: You aren't me, having to put up with five other people who are constantly at each other's throats. Worst part: they're family XD

[Carantathraiel]

yeaaaaaaaaaaaah. i left my family XD I barely talk to them anymore. My in-laws for the win. But I get it. my family was the same. Up in your face. trash talking you to everyone else behind you back when you made them mad. No secrets allowed because you tell one person, they all know. any time you do something nice they think you have some ulterior motive and complain. *huff* i avoid them, now. XD

[Daxam]

Well, the thing is, I try to be an amazing brother. As far as I know, I do a good job of it because they have a problem with each other, but not with me XD

[Carantathraiel]

as the youngest daughter... eh. XD oldest sister moved out before i was a teen. second sister is a pathological liar. younger brother used to be a douchebag. he's cool now. I just try to be a great older sister in law to my husband's siblings.

[Daxam]

Well, that's good XD Gotta head somewhere, be back in a bit :)

[Carantathraiel]

Later ^ ^ I shall eat and continue artwork. woop Husband has a friend who builds mods for Minecraft, I think they're recruiting me to help build things later. @.@ Now i need to hurry and finish my night elves.

[Daxam]

Aw, wish I had Minecraft ;~;

[Carantathraiel]

it is pretty awesome XD i only get into it in waves, though. i build houses and villages while hubby mines all the crap i need with his mom and brother. good team.

[Daxam]

His mom plays Minecraft? :o I've been playing a lot of Mass Effect XD

[Carantathraiel]

hell yea. his mom plays most games with her kids. Its a tradition that, when we visit, we all sit in the upstairs bedroom and play the old nintendo games and stuff XD
