    Adulting is hard.

    Buying a house is hard. Just saying that right now.

    So some minor improvements.

    We have a new person at work, and they appear to be getting used to the job quite quickly. My phone, meanwhile, has been fixed, and I have gone to great effort to thank my current phone provider for having so much better customer service than my previous provider.

    Househunting is still ongoing, but even that appears to be making some positive progress.

    I don't think it's getting better.

    So the good news is that we have a new supervisor at my job. The bad news is that one, the new supervisor is sick with something and her doctors are failing to help her get better, and two, the job is taking its sweet time hiring anyone new. This coupled with various unforeseen factors led to last week being a pain in the hindquarters at work. Plus, my househunting isn't going well, and my phone

    I think my job is trying to give me PTSD.

    I was awoken by a phone call this morning. Work asked me to come in, as things were crazy. I did so, was there from around 9:30 AM to 6PM. Worked without a lunch break, I might add.

    The Moral Event Horizon.

    Gonna discuss another trope today in relation to the Quiververse. In this case, it's the Moral Event Horizon. In simple terms, this is the point a character passes that forever marks them as EVIL and potentially irredeemable. TVTropes itself lists a few examples from FiM, and I won't repeat them here...though I will say that

Something's better than nothing, I guess. · 2:25am Dec 23rd, 2018

So yeah, good news and bad news.

The good news is that I've gotten more done with Many Happy Reunions, and I'm still on track to release the next chapter on January 5th.

The bad news is that circumstances have thus far prevented me from finishing said next chapter. The little additional work I've gotten done on it since my last update was a tiny bit for the fourth chapter, and I mostly have it done because it was a repurposed chunk of what was originally going to be in the first chapter for A Mad Pony in a Box - long story short, that scene with Silver Spoon's dad was originally going to feature another character entirely, one who happens to actually be a canon character and whose inclusion would have meant a slight change to an event from the series. Feel free to guess, but all will eventually be revealed.

Anyway, I'm feeling a little more optimistic about getting it done over the course of the next week or so. I have four days off from work next week - three of them spanning Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day - so assuming things work out in my favor, I should be able to get that third chapter done, plus a little more besides. Having said this I've no doubt tempted fate, but we'll see, won't we?
