Oh god it's been almost a year since I updated this journal what the hell gives. Anyway, I felt compelled to update because I AM OFFICIALLY 24 TODAY YESSSSS. I'm too old someone ship me off to a retirement home.

Anyway, we're getting Chinese food and going bowling and then eating ice cream cake at my grandma's house. Which should be pretty great. And yesterday and and Brittany and ~dragon-of-seth and ~bloo180 got to meet the zombie makeup artist for The Walking Dead IN PERSON and we got to hug him so this has been a pretty choice week, I'm not gonna lie.

Also, I'm not gonna lie, some really terrible shit went down IRL, which partially explains why I've been so awol RECENTLY aside from drive-by art postings, and it involves offline stuff and has nothing to do with me so I have no right to talk about it online, so I won't prattle on about it here. I feel like it'd be really disrespectful to blab about. But it's thrown me for a loop and I haven't been myself for a while because of it. I haven't even been able to talk to most people I know IRL because it's just... I don't know, something I wanted to not process had happened, and things have just been really, really weird for a while. But at this point, it's smoother sailing. I feel like a terrible person for basically hermitting up, but that's over now, so whatever. I probably won't talk about it, I just thought a mini rant would clear my head a little. But I'm sorry for being so completely and totally absent these past couple of months.

I guess I need to shut up about such heavy stuff now. On a lighter note (because we need one oh man) as you can probably guess by my new icon I've gone completely nuts over Downpour, the newest installment in the Silent Hill series for those of you who are unfortunate enough not to know what it is. I just... love the characters so much. Murphy is the cutest thing in the world and so is Anne. I just love those two. And I'm sure as you can guess I 'ship them pretty hard at this point.

Well, that's about it for me. Sorry for an entry with so many mixed emotions /: but uh... more art and writing is to come. Maybe I'll post the cover of a novel I finished recently. And NaNoWriMo next month... I am so excited for that I could just explode.
