Back from the many many holidays....
Yes, that story all the normal people don't know about is progressing somewhat. I tend to stall more than a little frequently. Anyways, New Years consisted of visiting a pair of shrines at 1 in the morning to try and avoid crowds... which showed up anyway (though, what I was told, it's worse later.) I never thought I'd have to wait in line to visit a facility of prayer. Especially when the total ceremonies and services take maybe 10 minutes on a day that's not packed. Got back at 6, and have had horrible sleep schedule since. Now, I have school starting tomorrow, which means back to the homeworks. Good luck to the others!
