well I normally just make cheapo food and I thought hay I could get delicious food AND help someone else while paying less then going to eat out somewhere
wait no, the more I think about it, the worst that idea sounds
Depends if Bacon is shedding or not....it's coming into winter there right? He should be starting to develop a thick red main for the colder months, you should be okay.
The school runs on a quarterly schedule. We are on 10 weeks, off 3. Today is technically the last day of the Summer quarter but there was only one class today and none of us were in it.

huh, that's really interesting- i guess that makes it easy for new students to come when it best suits them?
I sell wine for a living. Every Friday morning at our meeting I have to taste 20 to 30 wines. This is at 9:00 A.M. Needless to say, Fridays are my least productive day of the week.
D-Robe, of course you are located in Anchorage and discussing wine with people who mostly seem to be located in California so it's a bit slanted. However, a friend that I graduated Culinary school with took off and is working as a Chef in the logging camps in Alaska. He tortures me by talking about the Copper River salmon he just prepared or some of the game meats he gets to cook.
So you guys have a part.. uh. "meeting" every Friday?
You wine salesmen make such sacrifices to bring customers the best products. So selfless, so giving. Truly an inspiration.
e: Fresh fish is one of the rare advantages of living in Alaska, yes. It almost makes up for the cold, the darkness, the isolation, and the Palins. Almost.
Yeah, well if you lived on the outskirts of Washington D.C. like me, isolation would sound pretty good. I spend a very large portion of my life sitting in traffic and guessing how many people in the cars next to me are CIA, DEA, FBI or an acronym I haven't even heard of. Not that I'm paranoid or anything.
So what you're saying is that In reality I crave these urges that seem to pop up in the most random places, but object to them because even though I have these sort of feelings i know that from satisfying those cravings that they are quite vulgar in my own sort of shema. this also stems from another thing that I would not want to happen. I know some of the consequences outweigh the benefits and choose not to. (ex. A Childbearing mother at my age is something i don't want to put through another person or do to the child itself.)
Yet, these things just happen and though i may suppress these things they just pop up. (Shit happens as said above.)
Just got to keep rolling on.
No, basically you misunderstood everything I said. But I appreciate that you tried really hard to use the word schema. I guess it's not technically English, and here in America we take a shit on words that aren't English, especially Greek ones am I right??
My current status with wines is that I'm trying to find ones that I really like. My favorite so far this year has been Gallo Chenin Blanc Winemaker's Seal 2006. The local price is about 7 euros which is really affordable.

protip: when priming canvases, apply gesso with a credit card or squeegee instead of a brush - results in a much smoother finish and less overall sanding
I will say the best way to kill your passion for something is to turn it into a job.
...really? Two of my passions have been my jobs in the past, and I will say that the above is a ridiculous statement (to me at least). I absolutely loved it. I guess to each their own.
It can be hard at times sure, but damn guy, "kill" is a little harsh. I can't see any of my passions being killed by becoming a job, because... well, it's what I love to do. Were you using your passion to do something you didn't enjoy doing, like drawing different types of feces?
Edit: Just read that you taste the wine... now I'm even more confused
As usual, I agree with Prosp. Though at times my job can suck, I would not want to do anything else for a living (except maybe translations). I get up every morning and go do a job I really love, it hasn't really killed my interest.

shit works wonders
Another protip: For oil and acrylic users, use exterior house paint instead of gesso. It's much cheaper. Comes in many-gallon containers at Home Depot. Two or three coats will do the trick.

This is true, you should probably get a doggy comb before you invite him over. Might need to comb the knots and random bits of food out.
what kind of school is this and where can i sign up?
(i'm guessing you have a boat load of drawing to do though)
That could be your problem.

But I agree, quoting or referencing said scene is a definite no-no at this point.

On-screen keyboard is frustrating.
