I hope y'all like bullet points!

As of two-and-a-bit-ish weeks ago, my stomach lining has been messed up. Since then, I've had the joyous experience of being stuck on one of my couches hanging my head over a bucket in case the acid reflux kicks in, and trying to pacify myself with a mix of liquid meals and ranitidine. Lost a lot of body weight and feel like a zombie whenever I'm awake (which is often, since it's hard to sleep.) It's rough, but the prognosis is an eventual full recovery, and it should be easier to tough out from here on. I managed to crawl to a computer, so that's a good sign, right?!

So that thing I was not subtly hinting at in my previous journal was basically a free colored doodle to anyone who'd take the time and consideration to read previous journals in the act of gathering information. Sadly, nobody's laid or attempted to lay a claim to it, so I'll have to consider that cancelled. Doubly so due to the illness.

I have a lot of previously ordered and paid-up-front commissions that have been let to rot. Guess that means I'll be delivering some friendly backhand slaps to people who still owe me a share. On the bright side, there were two artists who exceptionally impressed me with the quality of their work, and they'll be receiving an extra little bonus as soon as I'm finished with this 'ere journal.

eBay is my new best friend. Craigslist has been lackluster when it comes to rebuilding my old Sega collection. (Now with 75% more Saturn.)


And that's about it. Cheers to the future.
