It's a wonderful feeling (Hey, yeah, yeah)

Feel the love in the room from the floor to the ceiling

It's that time of year

Christmas time is here

And with the blessings from above

God sends you his love

And everything's okay

Merry Christmas, happy holidays (Oh, yeah)

I hope you guys had a better Christmas than I did, or just a better holiday season or day if you don’t celebrate Christmas.

Projects

Still, still, extremely slow. For reasons I will soon elaborate on, I didn’t get to do much project work due to being in bad health on multiple fronts, and I finally just had to cut my losses and admit that I don’t have an estimate TOA for Return of the Trap Masters because of life kicking my ass and making me unable to seriously write.

The one positive is that I finally finished an old fic that’s been sitting in my drafts for months at this point. It’s a Ring of Heroes fic about Flameslinger and Eugenie having a heart-to-heart about family issues, so if you wanna read that, you can find Hearth to Heart here.

How’ve you been, Tilde?

In rough order:

  • Everyone in my family got bad colds right before Christmas, myself included, so I spent two days bedridden and my Christmas holiday sick.

  • I spent most of Christmas on-edge and worrying about my parents fighting and didn’t even really get to enjoy it all that much because I was worrying.

  • The day after, I went in to retake the learner’s permit test so I could get my permit again, ended up flunking it because they changed out a lot of the questions and I didn’t recognize them, and then my parents had a terrible fight.

As you can guess, I’m feeling awful. The one upside is that I did get some nice stuff for Christmas (I got some new clothes, a bunch of candy, and Sonic x Shadow Generations which I’ve been slowly playing through and enjoying a lot), but god damn can I have a nice week for once. I just wanted to get my fic writing done and enjoy having some peace before I started my next class, whyyyyyyy.
