Why hello there, LJ/DW! I have been mostly absent, and I apologize! I wish I had a good excuse, but the truth is pretty ridic -- my old DW layout was hurting my eyes, so I mostly stopped reading my flist for awhile. /o\ And eventually when I was less overwhelmed with life I tried to find a new one, but I couldn't find one bright and clean enough for my tastes, and then the one I DID find that I liked made reading my flist really difficult, so... I didn't. /o\ And then felt bad about commenting on LJ when I hadn't been keeping up with DW. /o\/o\/o\ (Also, hella anxiety these days, which has led to a lot of half-filled out comment pages being closed because "Oh my gosh that sounds bad does that sound bad? What if they think I'm being sarcastic/mean/stupid/horrible? Better not say anything at all!" which I know intellectually is stupid, but knowing =/= feeling, sadly.
So, uh, hey guys! How's tricks? I wish I could say I'd been busy and doing amazing things in my absence, but truthfully, today was the first day in over a week I left the house for anything but work (and given that I've only been working weekends, uh. wow, self. I was housebound for no real reason from 6pm Sunday to 8:30pm Friday /o\) and my home time was mostly spent watching the first season of Parks and Rec and logging 30 hours on a Pokemon game over the course of four days. idek. I have no idea what else I've done, aside from not sleeping, occasionally working in weekend-long spurts, living on a diet of Pop-Tarts and coffee, and being on Tumblr. :/ My boss at job #1, who I adore and who is the best boss anyone could ever hope for, is leaving, job #2 stiffed me on payday, and I am dealing with those things by... resolutely ignoring them at best, staying up all night worrying about them at worst. I backread every Tumblr about shitty tattoos I could find, and am now consumed with the desire to get a tattoo but the total fear that it will end up being a shitty one. Basically: hello, I have been being dull and also anxious for the past few weeks.
Anyhow! I discovered how to import my LJ layout to here, and I went to a hockey game today, and I watched a Vin Diesel movie tonight, and tomorrow I'm going to the hospital with my mom (for a relatively minor thing, no worries!), so, like. It's a brave new world, I guess! One where I actually look at my flist and leave the house voluntarily and do things I want to do rather than continuing to do things I don't want to do anymore just because I have an obsessive need to keep doing something until I reach a logical place to take a break and some things just don't have that logical place. (I'm looking at you, Pokemon Pearl. Also, my definition of logical probably doesn't fit with the actual definition, ftr.)
So! I'm back and I hope you all are well. Going to catch up after sleeping + hospital + haircut I hope oh my goodness it's terrible, but in the meantime: hi, guys! How are you?
