Hahaha that is legit the last time I was on here: eight months ago. And it's quite sad that I wasn't in a blogging mood because a lot went on...  I mean just to give you some footnotes:

🌟 I started another Yu Yu Hakusho fanfic, and then started writing it in Japanese -- first time doing that.
🌟 I kinda stopped studying Japanese - just needed a break and to obsess about some other things.
🌟 But I went to Japan???? LOL Spent almost all my money, was terrified, alone, sometimes lost, and then as the trip went on I gained my bearing and met my online friends and was immediately bosom friends with them, and we miss each other now, and it's like, I wanna go back to see them because they gave me a taste of friendship that I haven't had in a long time, but I can't imagine ever having the money again.
🌟 My hair situation never improved and now we're trying to see if it's because of low ferritin levels. Although my ability to test that might be fucked up now that I'm on birth control as of last week, so hormones, and possible side effects, and all that great stuff.
🌟 But I'm on birth control because I've been seeing an amazing lad named Jesse for three months, who's causing me grief right now, bless his heart, not entirely his fault, let's not get into it. As "Erik" says: anything you love will be torture.
🌟 Speaking of "Erik", I'm now on chapter 21 of He's There! I got back into it. There's a closed group on FB now where me and my readers actually talk to each other about it, as well as Phantom and related subjects. It's fun. I'm really trying to keep this going and not get side-tracked by, well, anything else. Not even my urge to create art. I want this manuscript done already.
🌟 I developed an obsession with Labyrinth. Because I have no money, it has been a slow crawl through the first stages of developing a cosplay for Jareth. I have a Labyrinth blog, Pants, Magic, Pants. For some reason a fair amount of people are enjoying it. I started learning contact juggling.

That's probably the majority of it. Seems by the entries last year that around this time and late into last Fall I was pretty moody, but this time around I've really been pretty okay. Summer has not been as hot, my air conditioner is protecting me. Obsession has kept me floating. I'm getting laid. *shrug* hahahahahahaha Work is a bit less of a shit-show, although I'm COMPLETELY sick of it and need to make some kind of change. I almost ALMOST applied for an overnight job that opened up, just to get away from people.

Maybe if I'm motivated I'll start posting chapter back-ups of all the writing I've been doing, and, you know, blog about that stuff. pfff We'll see.
