What To Do When The Sky Is Falling and Other Important Stuff

Serving up doodling through employment anxiety realness this week, featuring extremely heavy black ink bleeding through to the other side of sketchbook pages! I bought new pens okay I’m working on it... do NOT use the Pilot G-2 07 pens on Leuchtturm 1917 sketchbook pages! The ink is super thick in a bad way on this paper.

As a Reformed Doodle-r I’d forgotten how relaxing doodling was. Which is so funny because how did I manage math classes through school? Yeah, exactly, right next to the quadratic formula was a doodle of like... a soda can or something, I don’t remember exactly.

Other than doodling, I’ve kind of had the wind taken out from under me about how confident I am about getting another job, it’s feeling pretty impossible, and I really had to sit and think about what I can do to get by for now. I have very little audience here or anywhere for a small business, but I think that and freelancing is honestly my best bet right now. Although, in this post I included a pretty negative list I wrote earlier this week regarding freelancing, mainly about myself and my ability to compete in the market. I think, it’s okay to admit when you feel behind in your career, and admit when you’re scared, and I think that whole list was from a place of self loathing and fear. I mean, I’m scared to take on a volunteer project...

I’m not sure where I’m going with telling you all this, just to say I’m scared as usual but I have to do something or else. I hope you guys are actually feeling the luck of the Irish this month, and things are all going your way. Please pass on a little luck over here, too.


A little context on this one... I seriously for real thought flower petals would dry in a single evening. Like okay... I must have aΒ

A Song For You ❀︎

I told my mom about the Janet Jackson songs I love and she just kept going β€œOh I saw that one live!” the whole time. Did the same thing when I mentioned Sade... we’re twins but she really is the cool one. Anyways here’s one that came out when I was 2 and mine and my brother’s presence actively barred her from seeing this one live. Sorry mom!
