i apologize for not posting on this site in weeks. the truth is that firstly, i wasn't drawing much in general this month from getting ready to the holidays, working the last shifts at my old job, and just not being motivated to otherwise.

the second thing is that the day after christmas, i came down with a lot of upper respiratory infection symptoms. a few days later, i tested positive for covid. i still wear a mask whenever i am in public and i have gotten the shots along with two boosters, but we were all in close contact in the house on that day, and i unfortunately contracted it from my mom. i couldn't really do anything for the first half of the week, constantly going from waking up groggy to watching youtube in bed and falling back asleep again. i've luckily been feeling better and am at the point where i'm almost 100% back on my feet, but obviously i still will need to engage in proper protection and isolation to prevent the risk of infecting anyone else.

i mostly just post to this website and close the tab after; its mostly a gallery for me. so, i often neglect to talk about my life on here. but i just noticed that i hadn't posted for weeks and felt like a small update was in order. thank you guys for sticking around and i hope everyone has a happy new year!
