The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I've decided that I'm moving back to Buffalo. My health has been really bad and until I find work, I need to live with people who give a shit about me. My family may drive me crazy, but they care. Better than living with my would-be best friend who drives me crazy because he couldn't care less.

Just when I think things can't get worse, I was woken with the call that my Uncle Russ had passed away in his sleep. I'm heading to Buffalo this morning for the funeral and to see my family. I'll be gone till next Friday.

I logged into my account today to find a great deal missing as if someone had deleted the bottom half of my code. WHY?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It happens when you don't correctly close a tag. So, if you hit "Profile Backups"...?

Close a tag? I post using plain type, not HTML. No tags were used.

I haven't been as active on VR over this past week since I rejoined a month or so ago. I've been spending most of my time filling out online job applications, making calls, and updating my online portfolios. I need paid work in the worst way. I haven't been able to afford any fun in the past few months and the only food I've been able to get is junk which is making me weak and sick. I can't even apply for welfare until I get an Arizona state ID which I don't have the money for. I've been having to use my New York state ID since moving here in March. Everyone keeps asking me to do free work for them as if I don't need to eat, cloth myself, or pay the rent. People need to pull their heads out of their asses and realize that not everything in this world is free and they deserve no more benefits from life than the rest of us.

Finding a day-job has become my primary ever-consuming obsession. I must've sent out over 100 applications over the past 3 months and still, nothing. I've gotten a few interviews, but most of them were for scam companies. I'm still working as an agent for First Financial Merchant Services, but I've yet to make a sale. People are paranoid about switching credit processing providers, even if we can guarantee that we'll save them money. I have a meeting with an apartment complex manager tomorrow about signing with us. He takes in over $6,000 in credit a month, so that should earn me a nice commission. Wish me luck.

A little old news I can't quite get over. I pitched an idea for a movie to Syfy they were supposed to credit me for, but never did. Because I didn't keep proof of my deal with them or copyright the pitch, there is nothing I can do about it. Ever see "Red: Werewolf Hunter"? That was mine. Well, almost. They kind'a turned my pitch into a pile of shit. Because of this single fact, I'm a tiny bit happy they didn't credit me, but it still sucks. I mean, I've been a fan of Syfy since it first went on the air in the early 90's and they screwed me. I could really use something like that. Who wouldn't want to be credited as a writer or plotter of a movie?. And as it turns out, I'm not the only one they stole ideas from. They've taken ideas from a number of student writers and actors as well. What the hell has happened to them? They cancel their best shows only to replace them with fake reality shows and then steal ideas from their fans? C'mon!

Yes - this would really piss me off too.

I earned my first mark yesterday for redesigning The Coven of Fratrem Draconis' crest. I have now been charged with redesigning the crest of my own coven, The Damned as well as our mark. It seems I've developing a bit of a good reputation. I'm feeling great pride right now.

Due to too many marks being given too soon, my mark was taken away by the system. This makes me sad. I was however made a forum master of the coven, which is cool... whatever it means.
