I'm still alive and am rather thankful the holidays are over. Nothing real bad happened. Just got tired of having no free time to myself. Vacations and holidays are pointless if I can't spend a few hours to myself doing what *I* want to do-- art and play games and sleep in, etc. Ah well, made the most of it and now will get back to work.

I have started taking commissions again. Haven't been able to pay rent on time and so I have to take up extra work to not be evicted. All the Christmas money I got went to the rent too. That's a bit sad, cause I really want to upgrade the PC I use for playing games. It barely runs Fallout 3 on medium settings and I'm starting to see memory errors when it works too hard.

It's strange that going back to work gives me slightly more free time than holidays do. What's up with that?

Also, suffering an almost heatwave down here. Near 90F yesterday. Geez.
