The short answer is: I got my first job! I'm working at a McDonald's near my house, and it's been taking up so much of my time. 7 hour shifts are no joke!
The long answer is that I've had so, so much going on, and I haven't been exactly sure where working on the site should be in all of it.
I've been working, obviously, but I've also been doing college applications, and working my ass off in school to fix my GPA after two years of substance abuse and generally drifting through life. The little bits of free time I have, I've mainly been spending on regretevator, or stardew valley. It's a lot more mindless than coding, you know?
I still love this site, and want to work on it when I have the motivation. But unfortunately, right now, there's not that much time where I'm both motivated to work on this and also am free to do so!
I meant to update the about me page today, for example, but I've been absolutely exhausted, and it's already close to when I should be going to bed to make sure I get up on time tomorrow.
I am getting some time off of work soon, but it's not for the site-I'm going to be attending a local convention! I'll be posting pictures on my Tumblr once it's all said and done, I've been planning this for a while and it's so exciting to be so close to the event itself.
I'm going to be attending for the full weekend this coming Friday thru Sunday, and cosplaying the whole way through. I'm also going to be going out for dinner on Friday, since I have money left over from my birthday.
That reminds me, I had a birthday recently! On the 24th, I finally turned 17. I never thought I would get this far, but it's my senior year, I'm 17, and I'm applying to colleges. Time flies when you feel alive!
This is short, but I really am exhausted. I'll try to fit some time in on Tuesday to work on the site, since it's election day and I need something to keep myself occupied while everything goes down. Being just barely too young to vote is nerve-wracking!
Thank you so much to everyone that's visited this site, I hope to have more to show off soon.
