So for the last two weeks I've been working a Real People Job, opening boxes and lifting things for a big box store. I'm not sure if it's a good fit for me, but I'm trying to tough it out. It's part-time, but consumes enough of my energy that I haven't really gotten to do much else. I miss drawing.

Three weeks until I visit England, two months until I finally shed my terrible exoskeleton and emerge anew.

A big issue with having been largely self employed is that I... don't really know the difference between a normal amount of not enjoying your job and a "holy shit get out" amount. Or how much of the "normal" amount is the result of toxic work-until-you-die capitalism!!!

I just want enough money to not be a burden to others and a way of earning it that doesn't overwhelm me. :(
