Uh-oh

My Dad helpfully pointed out to me that my contract is gonna be up soon and I'll be back looking for a paycheck. It is, as they say, a bit shitcakes.

I've managed to avoid the whole job search gig so far in my career, which is lucky I guess. Unfortunately it also means I don't have a healthy fear of unemployment yet. I could certainly live happily for a while without a job, I feel like I've been working non-stop for a while now, but knowing that each beer I drink is coming out of savings rather than earnings will be rough.

Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky again. I had a chat with the big man at Weta Workshop a while ago, so I'll need follow that one up. That would certainly be a bit of a dream job for me.

It'll be back to life drawing class for me if that comes off though. I certainly feel ill-equipped when I compare myself to some of the guys and girls working there. Walking through their workspace is always an odd mix of inspiration and resignation. So talented... must... look away...
