Slightly belated happy new years!
3 years ago
I just wanted to say hi to the folks who still watch me here. While I check out this site on a regular basis, I only seldom make any journal posts.
A lot happened to me in the past two years. The biggest being the loss of my mom. That hit me harder than I could have imagined. That was followed by a string of unfortunate events, all during an emerging global pandemic. That all essentially knocked me down, and I didn't really wanna get back up. So I really didn't. It's only NOW in the past three months or so that I am ever so slowly starting to put the pieces of my life back together again. And I really don't want or need yet another bad thing to happen. At least not for a long time now. I feel like I've filled my quota for that for many years to come. >:P
I was looking through my notes here. There's a number of people I've lost touch with. Most of my friends talk to me on Discord, or on Twitter. But some people I've only ever talked with here. And a couple of people just went away without so much as a goodbye. But even on Discord, I realized I'm terrible at keeping in touch with so many. I just... forget. I'm not trying to be careless or malicious. Even so, I wanna try and make it a point to at least say "hi" every now and then, lol.
My fantasy world of Katrice, Endora and Mayhem and all the others has stayed with me. And I've been reminded by more than one person that I should not treat them as if they were frivolous and did not matter. They certainly matter to me. Katrice in particular is the only character I've kept alive for such a long time. Endora comes in a close second. Yeah, the whole thing is often silly and outlandish. That's kinda the point! They're important to me.
That's pretty much it. I'm still trying to make stuff for my Patreon and I'm much more vociferous on Twitter, despite not liking that place very much. I may or may not try another venue at some point. We'll see!
Happy 2022! May it be better than 2020 or 2021 were.

You are still the best yote I know, no matter what the year is.
