Hey guys.
While I won't exactly be "absent" physically, now in the 2nd month of being jobless, hurting financially, and being rejected from every job I applied to has resulted in some heavy depression. I am trying to type owed posts but 9 times out of 10 I just sit and stare at the document with no real thought or drive. Sometimes I even pop in to say hi but have no motivation to type in cbox. It's upsetting for sure.

No worries I promise I will be posting for any site plots/flights/eggs/BERBERS, but it's the outside ones I am having more trouble with. I have been trying to get a post our for Jackins forever and it's taking shape so slow I am angry at myself. So this is more of a "please be patient with me" absence post ^_^ I'm here just feeling like a sad slug.

Hey guys, guess who is back in town?

Yeah, yeah, it's this gal! I'm not going to promise I'll be rolling around every day, but I should have at least three days a week to get back into the habit of posting and playing a little bit catch up. Probably more active in the cbox than the boards, but we'll see.

In the interest of time and sanity, I'm going to be putting any and all old threads (barring lessons - I'll be chipping away at those) on hiatus/lockdown. Later I'll very likely open up the floodgates to revisit old threads if any of y'all want to wait to play things out, but I am also happy to discuss resolutions to threads privately for any takers. Even so, I am interested in starting new threads though probably no more than five.

That's about it. Well, that and a notice I'll be lowkey studying for my nursing boards which I'm due to take September 29th - any and all well-wishes are very accepted for this! Now that I've got my degree, I've just gotta nail my licensure.

Better slap this up now....

Ok first, Sept 1-3 I will (hopefully) be out of town enjoying the trip that got canceled when poor BF had to have surgery. Best case I can say hi on my phone now and then.

But I have some news that I guess is good but is heavy and has some bad side effects.
I think I have been offered a job. Which I did need but there is a catch. It is full time. Monday- Friday in all likely hood. And sadly it is out of town next to my Boyfriend's work so I am back to commuting with him -_- This means that I will be gone ALL day from like 9am-8pm California time. When we get home I will have little time before bed and that time will mostly be spent having dinner/showering. Long story short, it looks like weekday posts will be very rare for a while :( I will try to post on weekends but sadly since BF has weekends off as well he is always a distraction (a very loving and appreciated one though)

I should be happy but I am not. One the pay is fairly low even with full time and I am extremely depressed as it is with ANOTHER dog boarding place and holy hell I hate working at those places and the knowledge I will have no more me time has me very stressed and depressed. I would pass this one but sadly I NEED to take a job ASAP and this is the only one that has shown any interest.

So yeah posts from me will largely be on the weekends from now until I can find a better situation but that may be a while. I swear I will put plot threads first so I will post at the touching and hatching come hell or high water. And of course, I still plan on doing Shell threads. I am hoping I get used to this schedule enough that I can up my posts after a while. I will know by Thursday if this is a go but I needed to let you guys know now <3 Love you all!!!



UPDATE 9/12-

Goodish news- The job is part time. Currently working Tues-Thurs but this could change.

Bad news- Remember that pain I was in a while back and it was FINALLY fixed by a root canal? Well, it turns out the tooth is still decaying and the decay is high enough that it needs to come out even after all that work and money. So much of my time will be dealing with that bullshit so please forgive me if I do not reply to threads as much :( Again I will do my best to focus on plot threads <3

Hey kiddos, some of you might have noticed I've been a bit awol recently after being a bundle of activity. Originally I flagged in steam because I had just gotten another job. I was recently promoted to a management position in the second job and now I'm pulling double shifts 3 or 4 times a week. -deep sigh- On top of that about 3 days ago I broke up with my boyfriend of 6 years. I have not been handling it well. Anyway, exhausted and sad I have not been able to find the muse to post very much or really do anything but sleep.

I promise I'm still around but I will be heavily spotty and infrequent until I can feel less empty and more like myself again.

Thanks for your patience.

Oh gosh. I've been more busy than I normally am the past week, but that can all be contributed to school. In short, I'm taking a minimum of one math test a day. It grinds at my soul. Bright side, I'm expected to be graduated within a month/before November at minimum. Yaaaay! I was also busy this weekend and will be next weekend - got things planned.

This is just to let you know that I might not be at my normal speed until I get through the math field. However, I hope to get at least one post done every other day. Got a reputation to keep up, you know.

August of horrible colds.
Today is my first free day in sll of September
In October I have my best friend visiting for the month


Crazy busy.
Actually getting sad and worried about how I will ever fit back in / catch up here. RP is still a huge passion and blessing to me. Just the thought of being so far behind is crazy daunting.

Missing you all greatly

Hey guys,

I know i planned on getting some posts out tonight but I had an unexpected turn.

Spent the better part of my evening having my mother's dog put down. He was 17, so he definitely had a good run but it was not a peaceful departure and I'm admittedly a little frazzled.

I have some work to do in taking care of his things and burial tomorrow, so I may not be around for a day or two. If you were waiting on a post or a thread starter from me, I apologize for the delay and will get them up as soon as I am mentally prepared to do so.

Hey guys. A few things just kinda piled up today and they are looking to get worse tomorrow with vet visit among a few other things. I will try to give some owed posts if I can but I likely won't be posting much until maybe next weekend. I updated my moms in touching thread but again I may not be able to talk to anyone within for a while (both in character and out of character)

Throwing this up. We've been seriously shorthanded at one job so my schedule of late has been crazy, which normally is ok, but I have family coming in this week. So I probably won't be on much during the day at all and may pop in later in the night after work.

I will try and get some touching posts out, but other than that this week is gonna be busy busy till about friday, when family leaves and it'll be just work then.

Hey guys, I'm leaving the island for a couple of days to deal with a family emergency and a medical issue on my end. I'll be traveling all day tomorrow and I'll be really occupied for the better part of a week. I return Tuesday. When I come back I'll have to make up two exams on top of the two I won't be missing, so I'll still be pretty sparse until this nightmare is over. D:

Another safety post. I am going through some severe stress related to dental needs combined with my very difficult work schedule. Even today, my one weekday off I am trying like hell to get help and of course it is really stopping me from doing any posting -_- I dunno how long this will go on so I figure it's best to give you guys a heads up :(
I am so sorry to anyone waiting on posts from me! This stress may keep me out of the loop for a while....

Hey gang,

Going to try to finish up Kai/Coulomb profile this week, once we're off for thanksgiving break. Will then attempt to catch up with owed posts after.

As I mentioned in cbox, I am now full time at work. Which is kind of a good thing except now I have very little time to myself to post and on top of that I will be having problems with health insurance due to my slightly upped income and lots of health/dental stuff that needs to be addressed *sigh*

So yeah. I dunno when things will mellow out again. But I will try to slip in posts whenever I can. However, odds are most of them will be shorter than I'd like. I will try to work on new profiles soon too but it will be super slow. Please forgive me ;_;

Yo folks, I'm heading into hell week and finals week. I finish on the 15th and leave the island on the 17th but between now and then I have to salvage my classes from the shitstorm that's been the semester. I'll be in and out, but probably won't be able to post often.
