   Um...I'm back...yet again
I know I always say this, but...
WOWZA! It's been a really looong time since I've posted anything. A long time. So, here I am. I hope I can do this more regularly from now on.

When I look at the previous posts I've typed I have to think to myself, wow, you've changed girl!

I am older and slightly different now, though no less random and willfully oblivious.
It's amazing what a year or two can do to a person.

Well, as for updates for the one or two people that may read this posting:
I'm still sick, though not so much as I was a the beginning. Thank the heavens.
I haven't seriously sat down to draw anything in three or four months. Just thinking of that makes me cringe.
I'm attempting to write a novel that's been gnawing on the back of my brain for the past few years. I'll be happy if I can just get all my ideas down with some semblance of order, let alone actually try to publish the (currently) jumbled mess.
Deciding to write this novel has opened several doors in my mind it seems. I'm writing poetry and journal entries much more now than I have at any time in the last five years. I hope it never stops. It's a relief to finally use some of my creative inclinations again.
Life is still not "normal" for me yet. Or what would have passed for normal for me had my life continued on the path I was traveling five years ago.
I no longer expect life to "return" to the way it was all those years ago. I just trust that someday I will be able to stand up and continue my journey, whether it's in a different direction from what I had expected or not. And I realize it will probably never be the same. That doesn't mean I can't make the best of whatever happens though!
So I look to the future with not exactly excitement, but a sort of passive optimism. Someday things will change, until then I fill the hours with writing, t.v., movies, reading, manga (my collection is starting to encroach on the territory of my previously prominent paperbacks), and anime from netflix and youtube.

I got frighteningly introspective there didn't I? I'll try not to let it happen again...unless I feel like it. Ha ha.

Until next time this is frabjousarcher[) signing off!
