Busy busy.
Chris' other company had to do something last minute for Ludacris, so he couldn't come in Monday or Tuesday so I had to do pretty much all the ads for this issue. I feel safe in saying I did .. 95% of them. So Monday I worked 11 hours and today I worked 9. We got everything done on time and I was never really worried about it, but of course Michael and Shelly were freaking out.
The only reason I wasn't upset with Chris was well .. two reasons: 1) I knew I could handle it and 2) What he had to do was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more important than UWeekly shit. I mean, for fuck's sake, let's be realistic.
Anyway, Shelly talked to Michael and things might be in the works to make me full time. I was going to wait to talk to Michael about money until they got the details figured out, but I think it is smarter to tell him that the only way I can honestly say I will stay til at least March is if they pay me an actual graphic designer's salary. So I am going to tell him if all this is going down, I would like $12 - $15 an hour and if they can't do that then I can't assure them I will stay.
I hope he understands. It isn't to be a bitch or anything, it's so I can have a stable lifestyle and pay bills.
If I made $15/hr I would be making about $1650 per month after taxes and that is enough to pay my bills and start getting out of debt. Then once I am out of debt, it would be saving up. Probably for a bike then for a new car.
It would be exciting to have a month where I don't need the trust AT ALL.
Oh well. We'll see.
Tomorrow I have practice then I am (hopefully) going to The Duke Spirit with Chris and people. If I didn't have practice, we were going to get some nummies before hand and hang for a hot second, but I like band practice so it isn't worth canceling.
Some other time I guess.
This will be the first show I go to that I've done a poster for. I've missed all the other shows. Whoops.
I am going to go stave off sleep for at least another 20 minutes then .. crash. I am working a couple hours tomorrow which, I have a bad feeling will turn into a full day. Ugh. That will suck. Maybe I won't go in til 10 or 11. |
