It's effectively been two years since I've written anything here. I know, I posted "I'm tired" in January, and I'm still fucking tired, and it's November. It's been a crazy tumult for me the last few months and it's a huge breath of fresh air to wake up in the morning (or afternoon, as the case may be) and know that I'm not going to be potentially homeless, depending entirely on someone else's mood or hormones. A lot has happened in a year, and not everything is coming to me right at this very moment. Which probably means you won't hear about most of it.

I've been reconnecting with old friends and I'm really glad of it, I've really missed my friends, and I really need to be a better friend to them and stop falling out of touch with people.

I've been gaming more, this has made me really happy. Like, ecstatic, seriously. I game mastered a D&D 3.5 game Thursday and I think I handled myself well. The last two times I had tried had been, well, less than ideal. I'll get into them another time, after I've had some sleep.

I've felt very dry creatively. I haven't wanted to write any stories, I haven't wanted to draw, I haven't written any poems. I did a little of all three in the last month, month and a half and I am hoping that this is the start of a new, more creative mindset for me. The story is a (really) short Halo fanfiction with the premise of: What would happen if a SPARTAN II had gained a sex drive? The augmentations and hormone treatments left them without libidos, among other things, but I like where this story is going. I've been drawing people, I like drawing people. I've gone to carrying around artist trading cards (blank trading card sized papers that artists draw on and trade with each other) and drawing things and writing things down that I like or want to remember, and I'm enjoying taking time out of my day to just sit and draw a tree or a building, it's a very tranquil thing. The poem I wrote is dark and I'm not sure if I like it or not.

That's pretty much all I can really remember off the top of my head, and it's all recent stuff. We just switched the whole daylight savings thing, so my clock reads 5:23am but in my head it's really 6:30. Either way I'm fucking tired and an online journal can take a backseat to sleep.

And on that note:

What is the freshness date on spoilers?
