I'm alive, I swear!

I've had three people ask about me in the past week, so I figure it's time for a brief update.

I've been kind of taking a break from my computer. It feels like I've been sick forever when in reality I've been sick, then gotten better, then gotten sick again over and over. Right now I feel like I've got pneumonia or the flu or something, but I don't have a fever, just everything else. So it hasn't been all sick days, but enough that I'm constantly worn down. I've also been depressed like nobody's business. So all socializing, internet or rl, has been unappealing to me. I keep hoping I'll come out of this funk and have a few *up* days to balance it out, but if wishes were fishes, you know? As it is now, I spend most of my time sleeping and/or listening to horror podcasts/audiobooks.

I know I have outstanding commissions. I fully intend to get to them asap. Things have just conspired to keep me art-blocked and tired and not in any good mental place to be creative. I'm so sorry for the delay, those of you who have been waiting.

My Christmas day was good thanks for my boyfriend being awesome, and my New Year's Eve was okay, but other than that, I'm glad 2015 is over. Hopefully 2016 will give me an upswing soon.

I do miss you guys, and I'm sorry I haven't been around to read and comment and participate in fannish things, or other things. Hopefully I'll be back on my feet sooner than later, and I can join the fun again.

I would tackle you with glee, but I'm sick and have no energy. So...imagine you've been tackled and enthusiastically greeted.

The feeling is there. The body, not so much.

It's good to see your pixels, although I'm sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well.

Speaking of horror podcasts, have you heard the Black Tapes Podcast? I've listened to the first season and found it to be very enjoyable (and creepy as hell in parts).

Hey boo, waiting in another airport out of Shanghai, giving you aaaaall the brain cuddles :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

So happy to see you pop up!!! *HUGS*

Aww, I'm sorry you're sick! We'll be sick in a pillow fort together and have soup and marathon dumb shows, lol.

It's good to see you too : )

Oh! I've heard of that, but I've never sought it out. Thanks for reminding me! I've meant to check it out : )

Thank you for the brain cuddles! <3<3<3 And oooh, Shanghai, how exciting! : D

*hugs back* It's good to see you too! <3

*hugs you tight*

*bites you until you're soft enough to nest in then curls up inside your lap*

That's the trouble with depression - it dulls your creativity, plus it makes you feel too tired to interact with people, even though arting and interacting are things that lift your mood. It's a real catch 22! I hope you will be able to kick this black cloud into touch very soon!

I'd just love to hear from you! Hugs!!!!

I'm so glad you're okay honey!! I was starting to wonder if you just needed a little time to yourself is all *huggles you*

This is a good plan. I like this plan. I'm proud to be a part of it.

My cabana boy is still on back order, but I'll get some cream of mushroom and chicken noodle going.

<3 *hugs you back*

*pets your soft little head*

Thanks! I hope so too, it's a real bummer. I'm going to try to art and interact some tonight, fingers crossed that it goes well!

<3

Hugs to you too! <3

*huggles you back* Yeah, I'm okay-ish, just going through some stuff, and I tend to hermit crab myself when I get really depressed, sometimes.

I see I missed you live-streaming - that was a good sign! Hope it went well!
