The Rumour Is True. I Quit My Job.
Yep. The Thursday before Easter, I got into it with my supervisor in the morning. Doesn't really matter what about. I spent the day realizing that this company would never treat me any better than it currently is. So I called up the regional manager that afternoon, and gave my notice.
I'll mention here that I had Tara's full blessing. Having not talked to her first would have resulted in death.
I've applied to go back to school at McMaster in the fall. I'd forgotten what waiting for the university acceptance/rejection letter was like. It's unpleasant. I've got a few jobs in the pipeline, ones that should get us through until the student loan kicks in. Ugh.
Just wanna mention my comic book blog again, called Giant Box of Comics. It's just me talking about comics and stuff. Not news, not always current comics, but just comics in general. If that's your bag, I'd love for you to check it out.
(I despise self-promotion. This is the main reason that my business failed!)
I read Tom Strong v.4 today. It contains Alan Moore's penultimate Tom Strong tale, and it was stunning. A tale of a parallel time line and how it intersects with the familiar Tom Strong/ABC universe. Brilliant. Moore has consistently finished off the ABC series (or at least his runs on them) remarkably well. Top Ten, Promethea, and now Tom Strong. He does return for the final issue, Tom's perspective on Promethea's apocalypse, but this last story in volume 4 seems to me to be the story Moore was building up to. I'm shy 2 issues of Tomorrow Stories, but I wonder if he'll manage the same kind of brilliant ending for the characters in that?
