Lol. Only ended up with 4... I love to cook, so no big deal there. As long as others do the dishes! Hehehe. I actually got asked by security in walmart once what I was doing crouching down and taking pics of their floors and the metal on the shelves! I explained as best as I could, but he still went away with a perplexed look on his face! I've been told time and again I need to figure out a way to explain what I do in two or three short sentences, and in basic English lol. Yeah, like I can manage THAT! I will, one day, compile a newbies guide to the computer graphics and arts world, complete with a lexicon of the terms we use. Problem is, the more -I- learn, the more I realize how little I actually know. It took me months and switching case workers when I was working through vocational rehab to get them to understand. It finally involved my second case worker coming to my house and watching me work, asking questions along the way before she grasped it. After that, though, they stopped trying to "pigeon-hole" me, and created a whole new category for me. instead of me job-shadowing in places I had little interest in and trying to get me to sell my crafts at bazaars, they started steering me towards starting my own one-woman company. They had never come across someone like myself before - due to my particular "problems", I don't function well in public settings. But when they ran all kinds of tests on me, they were amazed at what all I could do skill-wise. What was so funny to me was the career aptitude test I took... I scored extremely high in everything from law to handyman stuff and then some. But my top two scores were in art and, strangely, botany & horticulture. That last one cracked me up, cus I tend to kill plants when I try to grow them! They were also amazed at what I could do even back then, with only a year of poser under my belt, and just having gotten vue 6 esprit.... And I was completely self-taught at that point! But thanks to them, I've had classes in Photoshop and indexing through the university, and some online classes with Peggy Walters to jumpstart me in Vue. I've also taken classes there at LVU(?) for other things - poser (basics), and one in UVMapper (didnt complete that one cus of issues going on, but I still have all the lessons saved, and intend to retake it and get my certificate lol). Ugggh, rambling... And sleep meds are kicking in, so maybe now I can fall asleep...

Rarer than a hairy egg and madder than a box of frogs....
