I'm stressing out now because it looks very certain that I won't be able to start until Fall 2010. So as far as I know I screwed myself over and I'm stuck here with only one last class to take to get my AA until Fall 2010.

I love my friends and my family but I really need to get out of this county. Fresno and Clovis are alright but when you seem to be the only feminine/nerdy lesbian within a 50 mi. radius your love life SUCKS. I'm praying to all of the gods and goddesses above that I can still transfer this fall and get myself into a new, fresh environment for the sake of my social sanity, lack of a love life and to hurry up and get on the track to starting my career.

Its going to start off with a character based off myself and work place and a friend of mine who works at the same place. I'll do rants based off my other friends with their permission and eventually open it up to the fanbase (if I get one lol).

Now because I'm pretty sure none of my programs are able to make a web cartoon, and that I don't have a microphone to record voices, does anyone know how I can do such a thing? Can you make a web cartoon on One True Media or must I buy software? And does anyone have a suggestion on how to panel/make a web comic?

A couple of nights ago I actually had a dream and the best part is that I still remember it! (very rare for me) I dreamt that I was my Batman character, Diane *points to her gallery* and I was hanging around Renee Montoya *dreamy sigh*. I'm not exactly sure what we were doing though- I know we were partnered up to investigate something and because of my (Diane's) connections we were working together. I remember riding in Montoya's car a lot, I don't know >.>. All I know is that the dream felt like it lasted forever and I was always with Renee and we were getting real close *another dreamy sigh*. Then the inevitable weird but awesomeness of my dreaming sequences kicked in:

I must have turned back into myself at some point or I was just half me and half Diane because a representative from DC Comics and Warner Bros. came up to us and said that he thinks I'd be the best person to start a Question animated series with Renee as the new Question (of course) and Vic Sage helping her out like her own personal Oracle. I was also going to get to work with Bruce Timm and Paul Dini too! I think I hugged the guy's leg for like half an hour and I THINK, if I remember correctly, that I was about to kiss Renee until I woke up... Oh Goddess I hope I get to continue that dream again soon, I really need it after the real life garbage I've been going through. Anyways, that was my awesome dream and now I need some help deciding on a series of drawings I want to do.

For awhile I had this idea of Renee Montoya teaming up with Elisa Maza from Gargoyles going after Carmen Sandiego. But now I'm thinking of a Carmen Sandiego and Question series because they both wear fedoras and trench coats and blue and red is a nice cliche pairing. So tell me what you guys think and I'll consider everyone's ideas and either cut and paste them into a good formula or smoosh them all together and see what happens lol.
=========================================
Oh- I'm in at least 1 club now- yay!

I am the boy who never finished high school, because I got called a fag everyday.

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the teen told to shut up because "It's all just a phase"

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of 27 years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the woman who died when the EMT’s stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don’t believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I’m a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.

I am the boy tied to a fence, beaten to a bloody pulp and left to die because two straight men wanted to “teach me a lesson”.

If you believe that homophobia is wrong...repost this
If you find this distrubring...so do I
If this made you feel for another there may be hope
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just wanted to add that as I was reading this it reminded me of a poem I had to write in my English class my senior year that was very muh in this style (every line starting with I am). In my poem I confessed that I was bisexual (lesbian now) but because it was an assignment I had to turn in I was afraid it would be "inappropriate". But when I showed it to my teacher she said it was fine and I didn't need to be afraid. When you attneded a high school that was the only one in it's district to not have a GSA (Gay Straight Alliance) on campus you get scared about those things.

This connects to stress factor number 2: I've been job hunting since I turned 15 1/2. I'm 19 and STILL jobless- can't get anything part time! I came so close last Monday at a Me-n-Ed's but because I live so far from it and I don't have my own car they manager has me on last priority for hiring but recomended me to another one close to where I live. I'm praying my heart out they hire me otherwise I'm broke for the holidays and funds toward my own car will continue to be in Limbo. my mom really wants me to get a job. I really want me to get a job but with no prior work experience and a nearly useless license things aren't looking too good. Even to busy retail stores don't seem to want me.

I'm balling my eyes out here like a banshee and wishing I wasn't. It's times like this I wish I had a girlfriend to be hugged and cuddled by and to cry on her shoulder. But of course all the fem lesbians with my interests have to live on the other side of the country or at least 500 miles from me. Freakin' Manifest Destiny- I hate you!...Not that California isn't a cool place to live...*sighs* Okay, I'm done ranting and getting things off my chest now, time to add on more holiday poundage *bangs head on coffee table*
