Uno the ridiculously distracted

*ahem* meeeeee... mehhhhh... mahhhhh... mawwwww... maWOOOOOOooooooo....
I've been a bad cub. And I don't mean that in the sense naughtiness or doing mean things or like that. I mean I've just gotten really bad at being a cub.
I guess I have a built-in excuse given how radically my lifestyle has changed in the last two and a half months. First of all, welcoming
into my life, then taking
and
into my home as well. (With more likely to come soon, but that's another journal.) Huge changes for someone who's literally lived just about half his total life and nearly all his adult life as the Lone Wolf. And to be honest I'm still trying to find my footing to a large extent.
I don't want to just disappear. I want to be an active, contributing member of this social circle. I want to love my fur family, all members of it.
(Pause to figure out why the printer won't print Lucca's voter registration form)
So yeah, where was I, oh yeah, things just keep distracting me. It was so much easier to be a friend to everyone when everyone else was on equal footing in my world, all at arm's length from me and all equally accessible.
But it's weird because everyone else in the house seems to have time to keep up on their FA queues. It's just me who never gets caught up. Of course that's partly because I've been the only one in the house working full-time. Thankfully that's changing; supporting myself was easy, supporting three other very hungry adults, not so much.
At least things are more or less squared away with my mother now, and presumably she's getting the helping hand she needs. So that's one less thing for me to worry about.
So apart from that it's basically taking things one day at a time. Hopefully I find my personal space again and get back some semblance of my old routine. Until then, bear with me. I'm still around. I'm still very much well. I'm just... a little harder to reach these days.

On another note, you're adding more people possibly? :o
Times of change can be stressful. But sooner or later things will settle down and be comfortable again, and then you can remember that you're with people who don't need you to be disguised and would probably rather you be yourself.
