Heya, my lovely little gumdrops!
I'm sure many of you have noticed my absence of late and have wondered, "where the fuck is that fucker, I'll eat their fucking ears" or something less colorful, and... I'm here to explain!
As many of you know, following a steady increase of stress and anxiety at my previous job, I suddenly lost it(the job) around the beginning of May. Things were okay for awhile, but being ground into dirt by my customers day in and out had seen a slow creeping of ye olde depression into my life. After losing my job, there was a sudden emotional hole where the stress and anxiety used to rest. And, well... Depression assumes the form of its container, much like water. And cats. More like cats, actually-- in the, it makes you want to curl up in a beam of sunlight and glare disdainfully at anything that happens to acknowledge your existence sort of way. Except, replace sunlight with dark rooms and anything acknowledging your existence with... well, anything. To cope, I've basically plugged myself into an MMO and disengaged from the world.
So... yeah, that's where I've been.
On a more positive note, I miss you guys and am doing my best to force myself to stop being.... Well, I don't know if it'll translate well, but my native tongue has a word for this: "goddamn useless". Yes, that! So, I'm trying to ease myself back into things and pick up where I abruptly left off. It's a struggle, so there's probably not going to be any fanfare and triumphant return from hiatus- but, I'm trying. Fortunately, the rest of staff has been rockstars and has really picked up the slack in my absence, so... much love and appreciation to them!
Anyways! Thanks for your patience, and I love you all.
