I haven't been able to get my head together for a decent journal entry in a long while now. Every now and then life just piles on the problems until they culminate in one great big giant clusterfuck. Brenda lost her job, I got fucked by my job, Debra got put on involuntary hiatus by her job at the worst possible time. Danny's dad, who was like a father to me, passed away and things were just too much of a mess on the home front for me to take a week away to ride with Danny up for the funeral. Our car died just before I was able to go take my road test to get my driver's license and in the middle of the week Debra was taking her finals. Debra and I have been having serious issues. Everything has been all messed up and I've been absolutely overwhelmed to the point of mental shut down.

On the bright side, I managed to put aside my troubles enough this past weekend to recuperate some of my sanity. I had fun at Hexxt and Father's Day wasn't too bad since I really didn't do anything except take the family for dinner at Little Five Pizza and pretty much sleep away the rest of the day. That gave my brain some much needed downtime which helped me kick start a little bit this morning. I've been somewhat productive in the sense that I'm not just staring at my computer hoping for a miracle. Rather I've been spending my morning rescanning Roth & Earl strips for the print compilation since the images that are currently up on the site are too low of a resolution and are just plain sloppy since I didn't have the slightest clue what I was doing when we first started out.

Life goes on. This family has certainly been in deeper shit and come out on the other side smelling like roses. Things are already looking up. It seems like there's always one month out of the year that Murphy's Law kicks into overdrive. Then things get all spiffy again.
