hello.

You know how, when you have someone you talk to every day, you can talk to them for hours and hours about nothing at all, and when you have someone you hardly ever talk to, you sometimes struggle to come up with enough words to fill the silence? This is like that.

I've been so busy lately that I just stopped even thinking about blogs-writing or reading them. Work is busy as always, but I also was taking a tax class, working on a big freelance project, and sometimes proctoring exams. All for money or the hope of future money. So I finished the project and the tax class. I'm going to be working at the tax place starting in January, so that is sure to bring some interesting name-withheld-type blog fodder. Also, I never would have predicted this could happen, but I now spend so much time writing and editing at work that I find myself less interested in doing it at the end of the day. That's not good for the long run but I'm hoping I'll get over that as I get more experienced at it.

Anyway, I'm planning to keep it light but hopefully more frequent for the month of December. I'm giving mostly shitty handmade gifts this year so hopefully, I'll get some pics of those up starting this week. Oh, and there is a trial starting next week about my brother's death, and my dad has surgery to repair an aortic aneurysm on 12/16, so I'm sure that December isn't going to be any quieter than any other month of my life.
