I don't know how people manage to be so prolific as to write something in this every day. Well okay, it's been like over a year for me so perhaps that's the opposite extreme.
So hmm... what have I been up to. Well not a lot. Since last year I resigned my home health care job (I love it but I didn't really earn a living wage...). Worked in a nursing home for awhile but wow, the things they tell you about those places aren't terribly exaggerated... so needless to say I left. Currently I'm employed as a customer service rep and so far everyone there seems really wonderful to work with. Still in training... took my second test on Friday. Today I'll find out whether or not I passed. I'm pretty sure I did but I'm paranoid that this will be like one of my high school algebra tests where I whizzed through everything, could've sworn I knew all the answers but ended up with like a 'D'. This wouldn't be so bad except I've been informed that those who don't pass get the axe. No pressure there, right? -_-;
Tried to sell the house we're living in- no bites- so we may have to short sale, deed in lieu, or just well get foreclosed on. But luckily Eric's mom took pity and bailed us out. There's a house in Dayton for 24k great shape bigger than this one that she's buying. I think things should go well on that end. She id really an amazing woman. I can't imagine ever being able to pay her back for everything she's done for us.
Writing a bit more lately, nothing original, sadly. Getting into the Transformers fandom. Well, G1 anyway. As far as I'm concerned the rest of it is garbage- of course your mileage may vary. I don't know why I never bothered to get into it before. I've delved into other fandoms with barely a passing knowledge, and although I'm rusty, this is one fandom that I can actually say I feel relatively confident writing.
Once again I bombed out of NaNo thanks to an errant Starscream muse. I'm debating whether or not I should just attempt it in December all by my lonesome. Well, we'll see.
That was far longer than I would've liked but meh, it's been a year after all. I'd like to say I'll update more but I know me. If I lock myself into something like that I probably won't do it and just feel dumb. So, maybe I will and maybe I won't.
Good luck to everyone with all of your endeavors.
