Cammy's Big Rambly Journal

Hello! I notice you're using Netscape (or other CSS-noncompliant user agent—in which case, consider this an easter egg) to view this journal. Because Netscape is so titanically shit, I have disabled image viewing on Netscape specifically. If I didn't, you would notice random images being replaced with each other and similar such strangeness. The posts are still visible, but you'll be missing the images, which are half the context of these posts.

You should use RetroZilla if you can; it runs on Windows 95 and up and gives you a perfect cammy.somnol viewing experience, plus more comfortable Web browsing on retrocomputers in general. Failing that, Internet Explorer 3 (which amusingly also displays this message, since it doesn't support the display CSS property) and up will also work perfectly fine for seeing my journal posts.

The Alcopocalypse, Day Three

I bet you drink a lot of sausages, huh Cammy


Well, I've gotten my schedule for this week, and it's fucking scary. I'm working 39 hours total, one day off (not even my usual day off, Thanksgiving), and Black Friday, I'm working a nine hour shift.

Last night in general was a whirlwind of emotions. I got my schedule and that wasn't fun. I drank an alcoholic maple bacon slushie from the slushie machine and laughed my ass off the moment I took a sip (it is literally just drinking a sausage and it's the most bizarre thing I've ever tasted). The guy who said I had a small penis came back in to apologize and said he'd been there four times in a row trying to see me. I learned my manager's main job isn't even the store, it's managing her husband's art and animation business working with clients as big as fuckin Dave Chapelle.

It's not all bad! But it is a bit much. Needless to say I have like zero desire to do anything that isn't lay around and play Tony Hawk after work at the moment. (Be sure to follow me on RetroAchievements so you can see what I'm playing!) It's literally a ten day stretch, five days of working (started this past Saturday, is now Monday, so on day three), off one day, four days of working.

Thankfully afterwards it goes back to normal. Doesn't bode well for the mountain of stuff I always wanna do, but hey. Time for everything. I will try to keep up sketching when I feel up to that, because I think I'm going somewhere good with this and I've just been on a roll with the Cammys especially. Such a fun boy to draw. So fluffy, so comfy.

Oh, and since you guys haven't seen this finished Setter yet, here's the one that'll go atop a page on all my computers and consoles and cameras and stuff. I'm really fond of a one-color-for-the-entire-lad coloring style, kind of that Ant and the Aardvark thing, so in the interests of speeding up cammy.somnol site graphic development, I'll be going with that. This feels like a good balance between look and simplicity.
