I really want to ask advice about what people think my next steps should be.
Part of me is "start pushing art and slamming together a portfolio as fast as possible." Part of me is "beg every friend I have in the Seattle area for crash space and start sending resumes to anyone and anything in the area." Part of me is "hey! I can get to Bandaza" which... might be a little fiscally irresponsible without combining it with looking for work.
I have the gut feeling now is NOT a time to decide anything.

@Leucrotta investigating options isn't the same as making a long-term decision. it's good to know what you're getting into. that said, it's also good not to overextend yourself and find yourself in dire circumstances later because of it. sometimes you have to take a risk to find out what you're capable of.
heh, the best "advice" I can give is "what do the cards say?" XD
