I'm just past some really frustrating days. I had several unpaid gas bills, because I simply didn't have any money to pay them - the gas company was issuing a termination warning. So the moment I got some money I proceeded to pay them. I thought that with that, I'm safe.

       The next morning they cut my service regardless, claiming that my payment isn't registered in their system yet...

       Long story short I had to run around for two days, acquiring certificates from my bank, paying the last bill despite it not even being overdue, spending 5+ hours at customer service offices, and filling out and signing several papers only to have gas service reinstated...

       As a result I was with no heating (apart from a small portable electric heater I borrowed from my mother), no ability cook proper food and not a single cent of money left.

       Needless to say I couldn't do any creative work like that. Now I'm way behind with everything, including Inktober, which I really genuinely wanted to do every day, my backlog work, and the freelance work I was hoping to get some money from.

       I already had a lot of work, and now even more so if I want to catch up with things...
