So, I've learned something rather important about the whole "Independent Artist with a Day Job" path I've taken to. That day job takes up way more time than actually being an artist. Furthermore, "Independent Artist with a Day Job and a Girlfriend" tends to sap even more time and energy out of my normal creating routine. Don't get me wrong, I like the way life is unfolding for me right now, it's just not leaving a lot of time for the things that I enjoy doing on my own. Perhaps I could try animating while hanging out with the girlfriend, but I doubt it will be as productive as I was when I was single. Then again... Steady supply of affection and money... am I really better off pursuing this artistic lifestyle?
