Hello!

First and foremost, we would like to apologize for having an absence of at least three weeks. We are deeply sorry to our commissioners and our followers, who have been looking forward to our streams and to Glitch's work. We know we have really fallen behind on our workload and our communication again, but we're hoping that we can clear the air a bit with this journal as far as what's been happening in our lives, and to reconnect with those who are still waiting on commissions and streams.

Second, before we get into what has caused such an absence, we'd like to say that this week, we have been working on backlog and owed commissions, and are hoping to resume streaming this Friday and Saturday, if all goes well on our end.

Two weeks ago, Sepia/Boss (myself, the one who helps manage Glitch, answer notes, etc.) got into a near-fatal car accident. The vehicle was hit in the driver's side by an individual who ran a red light at an intersection, claiming he was late for work and didn't see me. The entire driver's side, both front and rear, had been caved in. The vehicle was hit so hard that it spun, and, consequently, was hit a second time in the front after spinning. My glasses had been thrown from my face and out of the car, and were found melted into the rear right tire.

The poor car itself has been totaled, and the last two weeks have passed by in a rush of insurance phone calls, doctor visits, and hasty trips to car dealerships. We have had to deal with outright harassment from the insurance company of the other driver, as well as incompetence from my own insurance company neglecting to contact the other insurance. I had been told I had 30 days to use a rental vehicle, but after I had accepted the settlement check, my insurance cut off my rental usage (which it had not been communicated to me would happen), so Glitch and I needed to find and purchase a car in about three days. Additionally, I needed to try and find a solution to replace my prescription glasses as soon as I possibly could.

Aside from the obvious hassles of the car and the insurance, it has been a very emotional time for both of us. Other than my left arm sustaining a severe scrape and bruise, I walked away without needing to go to the hospital, in an accident that could have very easily been the end of my life. Such an event was very emotionally overwhelming, and we had needed some time to recover what was almost a loss of life.

All of that having been said, we are still immensely sorry for the lack of activity and communication on our end. It has been incredibly difficult to even be online for a sustained period of time as we've been trying to get our lives back into order, but we are still apologizing for neglecting some of our communications with those who have been waiting on commission pieces and have been waiting to hear from us. We do not wish to form a habit of using "excuses," and in fact, was the main reason why we refrained from posting about the situation sooner, because we did not want it to come off as us asking for financial help or seeking pardon for falling behind.

If you have any questions, comments, concerns, etc., please feel free to leave a comment or to note us with anything you may have to say. Again, we've been aiming to spend this week working on late pieces, with the goal to resume streaming this weekend.

Thank you so much for your continued patience with Glitchworks.
