Well, there hasn't really been much to report over the last few weeks. I know it's been a while since I last put anything up here and believe me, I've been trying to solve it. However, in the past month, one thing or another has been preventing me from making much progress on stories.

So...what have I been doing for the last month or so? Well...

> For starters, working my ASS of...This is the time of the year I hate the most because it seriously cuts in on my freetime. I have fewer days off from work during the baseball season and less freetime to write whenever I'm not at work, because I'm spending most of it trying to catch up on sleeping.
> Playing Angry Birds...I swear to god at times this game is addictive as heroin.
> Working on creating movies...yes, you heard that right, I've gotten started on trying to make my own films. So far, they're all about what a total rip-off artist/hack the Irate Gamer is, but maybe I'll eventually move on past that at some point. (No, none of the movies I've made have been published yet since I'm still working on getting my skills in editing and whatnot a little more refined. For now, all of the movies I create will be for my viewing only with maybe sharing them with a few closer friends)

Anyway, that is what I've been doing for the past month or so. However, there are a few positive signs that may lead to more story-writing time and production in the coming weeks.

> In addition to the aforementioned issues, I've also been dealing with a bit of a writer's block. However, that has since been chipped away a bit and I feel as if I'm finally starting to get somewhere again.
> More days off...it's getting to that point of the season where working 2 weeks straight in between off days is getting exhausting and as such, I'll be given some time off to reduce the amount of stress I go through.
> A mini-vacation later in June...while this will be more for MY enjoyment, I'll still find some time to work on stories while I'm relaxing.
> August...almost every weekend in August I will be off, so that will give me a lot more time to work on stories (as well as to recharge my batteries)
