So I have been gone the past while. I'll also be gone for the next few days as well.

Why? Well this last week I was out at my parents visiting for thanksgiving. It's a fairly long trip, so It's a full days drive both ways. And today I just got a call in that I have a contract for monday, so I'm driving back down tomorrow, and will be gone for around a week. This means no more writing for a while.

Gah! · 12:24am Oct 8th, 2013

No matter how hard I try I can't seem to manage more than two thousand words a day. I tried yesterday and found myself really stressed. I ended up trying to relax, and stayed up till 2am, and woke up a 6am. So today I am tired as well. This is making trying to catch up on the story rather hard because a lot is happening right now. >.<

Happy Thoughts · 1:17am Sep 30th, 2013

So just a few happy thoughts I would like to put down;

First of all while I haven't gotten any good sounding responses back over a new job yet, I did get some news that some equipment that I invested in about half a year ago will finally arrive about around the end of October. Assuming that nothing goes bad I could end up making a living with it, so if I can survive that long I will probably last longer.

Real Life · 10:10pm Sep 26th, 2013

So some of you may be wondering how much of what I am writing is real. The truth is more than I would like. I did get laid off from a warehouse job. I got laid off because I was attempting to get a job at a local mine. Today I found out that my application just got rejected after hearing nothing but positive things for the last 3 weeks.

Being Late, Fondest Desire, and Information About Cameos · 1:33am Sep 23rd, 2013

So sorry for the late chapter tonight. I was sick and had work this weekend and I ended up spending more of my Sunday doing non-story things than I had planned. I'll try not to let this happen again, but of course no promises. I should also note that I will probably one day miss an update. If that happens don't worry, I'll make sure to keep going. Still, if I do miss a chapter, feel free to poke me, because I will probably be feeling guilty about it and will need a bit of encouragement.

Talking it Out Notes · 12:10am Sep 19th, 2013

Didn't get enough sleep last night and can barely form a cohesive thought right now so if this chapter is terrible I apologize. I should also note that I write each chapter as I go on a sentence by sentence basis, and I had take some time before the start of this chapter and and work out what Celestia was up to. Forest Trails and Treasure Island both speak to me, but Celestia doesn't. Her I actually have to think about a lot.

See y'all tomorrow, I'm off to get some food in me.

On Time, Dislikes, and Being Featured · 12:06pm Sep 18th, 2013

So for those wondering I don't currently work doing mineral exploration. I did spend ten years of my life doing it, so I do know a lot about it. Just recently however people stopped investing in mineral exploration in my area and I had to find another job so I'm now working at a warehouse. This weekend we are doing inventory which means that I will be staying at work till 9pm on both Friday and Saturday and working part of Sunday. I will try to get enough chapters written on Thursday to keep my
