Why no investigation? · 4:22am Nov 15th, 2023

So a thread posted by someone who read a lot of my stuff prompted me to bring this up in regards to the Equestria Girls series. Why no investigations of the goings-on around Canterlot High?

Seriously, let's consider the events of each big EQG story.

It's a miracle. · 3:10am Nov 12th, 2023

The next Q&A segment is done and ready. It'll be up and online on this coming Thursday.

...damn it all... · 3:01am Nov 8th, 2023

I was supposed to have a day off. Had been working for three days. Then the guy scheduled to close called in, so I got called in. And my next day isn't until Saturday.

I hate my life. I hate feeling like I'm not allowed to get anything done for me anymore. What point is there in living if all you do is labor for someone else? I want to labor for me. I want to accomplish something for me. I want to feel like what I do, what I enjoy, what I want matters.

I continue to curse myself! · 2:27am Oct 28th, 2023

So yeah, still haven't sat down and worked on the Q&A segment. I think I have to knuckle down, set aside Tuesday for it, and get it done, because something tells me that if I don't, it'll never get finished.

Sometimes, it's no fun being me.

Curse me and my distractions! · 3:04am Oct 8th, 2023

The DLC for Pokémon Scarlet is still occupying my time, but I'm working through the last remnants of what needs to be done for it. My backlog of viewing is getting whittled down, but my efforts are still stymied due to a lack of interest in certain things that I feel are necessary to watch before certain other things come along - Chris Chibnall hath burned me, and reviews for Secret Invasion have discouraged me.

Unintentional radio silence. · 2:02am Sep 17th, 2023

I've been a little bit, haven't I?

Work is keeping me busy, but we have new people, so things do appear to be easing up. Creative efforts are still stymied, but I have every intention of having the next Q&A round ready by the end of this month. That will, of course, depend entirely upon whether I get distracted by the DLC for Pokémon Scarlet.

And I'm right back to being miserable. · 4:43am Sep 1st, 2023

So yeah, work's getting me down. AGAIN.

Between it being a holiday weekend and us being generally understaffed, I've been asked to come in tomorrow. On my day off. Second week in a row that I've only gotten one day off, and it's getting to me. And this is coupled with today having been super busy and one of the co-managers deciding to talk with me at length at the end of my shift, thus preventing me from getting all the necessary end-of-the-evening stuff done.

Feeling slightly better. · 1:45am Aug 30th, 2023

Day off from work. Cleared out my backlog. Got to relax despite having a frenzied morning. Protip - don't schedule a dentist appointment for 8:30 in the morning, and then fail to go to bed early the previous evening.

Some relief. · 3:21pm Aug 29th, 2023

Today, at long last, I got a day off from work. Hopefully, I'll be able to rest, relax, and get something done for me.

Hopefully.

Definitely not having fun. · 12:32am Aug 26th, 2023

So, today I went into work on what was supposed to be my day off. Came in at 8:30AM, left at 7PM. We expected sixty-four orders...and we got ninety. The system that would've let me clock in despite my not being scheduled to work was down for two and a half hours after I arrived, and I wasn't able to fix the issue until much later. I spent the day working my ass off trying to get things done, a coworker who always prioritizes his breaks over getting the work done did exactly that - and
