Haze

It was never my intention to neglect this blog, but seeing as how I haven't updated it literally in years, I guess that's exactly what I did.  I started this blog to have a reason to write and to have a place to vent my feelings.  I have both of those things in different outlets now... but that doesn't mean I don't miss this blog.

And now I want to try and get back to updating this blog regularly.

Maybe I'll post once a week or so, a catch all "here's what happened to me" kind of thing.  That sounds reasonable.

So in the last couple of years, what's happened to me?  Well, if you know me at all, you probably know all of this, so I'll stick to the Reader's Digest version of all these stories.

• I've struggled with depression and anxiety.  There was a period just a few months ago when these things were worse (and I thought I was losing my mind... that was an interesting time).  I guess the depression is the main reason I stopped writing on this blog and kind of... pulled away from a lot of different things.  I don't know if I'm getting any better.  I hope I am... or at the very least I will.
• I've thrown myself pretty seriously into superheroes and comic books.  That was always something I loved, but I've dedicated much more time to it over the last year or two.
• I've also started writing fan fiction more than anything else.  Through this, I've met some really lovely people and I've also got an audience.  This has made a big difference to me.
• Two of my aunts died.  I don't want to talk any more about it.
• My niece was born and pretty soon I'm going to have a nephew as well.
• I lost my best friend.  Not to death but... you know.  I'm not over it.
• I flew on an airplane by myself for the first time.
• I got Netflix.  That's pretty cool.
• I started playing and watching Pokemon again.
• ETA I got a dog.  He's two now.  I don't think I had him when I stopped posting to this blog.
