Well I am pretty much free now, or at least cut loose to fly away into the woods. My work fired me over the most asinine reason imaginable- I hid the sports section from the jerks by putting it in the women's bathroom. But the Stepford wife of one of the troglodytes told on me, I wanted to tell her that just because this one doesn't beat her like the last one he isn't a good husband but no surprise the little coward had left early that day. And actually they didn't have any proof it was me but they never asked me if i had done it either, just called me into the office of the floor supervisor (gambler, his wife divorced him for cheating on her) who informed me that my employment was being terminated. My direct supervisor told me how bad she'd miss me, but since I was also fired the day after I told her about being accepted to OCAD I'm not sure I don't trust her not to have stabbed me also. But hey it is fine, I will pull the daggers from my back and use them to cut the roots of stangle-vine that have been holding me here.
I have been working harder in my first week of unemployment that most pigs will do in a month, but I have to pare down and ditch as much stuff as i possibly can and move the fuck away from here. I was planning to anyway for the time of school, but now? Why the fuck ever would I come back to this misbegotten shit-hole of a state? I doubt I'll even fly over it in the future.
The future looks bright from here, but it is so bright I can hardly look at it, so I am down here dragging myself through the last bit of sludge before I can wing my way out of this cess-pit. I'm the least religious person I know, yet I find myself singing "I'll Fly Away"
       No more cold iron shackles on my feet,
        I'll fly away... I'll fly away O Glory,
        I'll fly away in the morning..."
