Took some time off to clear my head. Haven't been online at all, and I have been neglecting even those close to me. I get that way sometimes. Happens about once a year. But things are looking up now. The people I love have decided to continue to put up with me, so that's nice. My anxiety was really impacting every facet of my daily life, but I have found a remedy that is working for me at least temporarily.

News:
My best friend got a job and is moving a few hours away. I'm both happy for him and miserable that I'm pretty much on my own now. He was the last friend I had that didn't start a career and get up out of Dodge. I feel like I'm lagging behind, but I feel like things have to turn around eventually.

My brother graduated college and has moved back home. I am happy he's home and so proud of him. But I also really miss having my own bedroom for so many reasons. We've been working like demons to clean up the basement so one of us can declare that as our own territory. You may think, "Why not apply that energy to the job search so you can really, REALLY move out?" But SHHHHHHHHHHH. Okay? SHHHHHH.

BIGGEST NEWS:
I'm getting my first tattoo this weekend! I've wanted one for so long, and seeing all the lovely ladies and the legitimate artwork on their bodies finally inspired me to really go out there and do it. I took the time to design something that is meaningful to me, and I know I will never come to regret having be a permanent part of me down the road. I'm quite excited, and I may put up a picture or two once the process is complete and it's at least partially healed.

I guess that's everything. I have some catching up to do. I can't even begin to count the number of sets I've missed over the past month or so!

Until next time
