Dec. 31st, 2015 11:17 pmWell, it's about an hour before midnight here, so, I suppose it's time for the obligatory retrospective.
It's been a crap year. My brain chemistry fucked me over, I had rolling anxiety attacks for over half of it, I failed a class and I'm stuck in school for one more semester. And now I'm living in a small town where my shitty ex works at the /only department store in town/. And my writing speed dropped to a crawl.
On the positive side, I got some new fandoms, found new awesome friends and continued being friends with awesome people. What I have written has been good, and my drafting speed is starting to pick up again.
Most importantly, I've survived more or less in one piece. I'm not quite the same person I was 12 months ago, but I've learned a lot about myself and the world since then, and the core of me is still me. (The dunes of the desert change shape, but sand is still sand.)
Resolutions? eh. Let's talk plans. I want to graduate and get a job, start paying off my loans. Pay off my car. Write. Feel less guilty about not writing. Work through my stack of books to read. Maybe watch a couple of tv series in the stack as well. Forgive myself for the times when the best I can doesn't feel good enough.
Here's to a better year, everyone.
