candylandI THINK YOU ALL WANT TO WORSHIP MY ICON, OH YES YOU DO.
I turned in my letter this morning. I'm...not quite as broken up about it all as I was last week when this decision was reached. When I talked to Mom last night, she even commented that I didn't seem as upset as I was when I called her on Friday.
To be honest, I tried to like it out here. I really did. But the fact is that I'm too far away. I've lived in the same city since third grade, and even while I was in college (an hour away from SC), that city was home. Then I got plunked down four hours away, and...I just didn't adjust well. I'm away from my family and my friends--my support system. So when things go wrong, I don't have anyone to call up and say, "Let's go get burgers and then wander around Best Buy for two hours and be goofy!" So...I think this will be for the best.
Of course, now I'm back on the job hunt. Which is sort of BOO-HISS. But I shall manage one way or the other. Que sera, sera and all that...
Otherwise...I need to get stuff typed. I have three stories in my notebook, sitting and waiting to be typed and posted. I'm just being lazy about it XD Need to get back on that so I can finish stuff up. Quick tally of completion, just to see where I stand...

...getting there, getting there. Also have various little one-shots and things to toss up. Will finish those drabble requests ASAP--I think I have four or five left to do. Most of them will eventually be moved over tocandyfics. Whether or not they're in a challenge, I don't know yet. Most of them...probably not.
And I need to play more Phoenix Wright. I'm starting to ship characters that I haven't even seen yet. CURSE YOU, FANDOM. I also need to read the rest of Chrno Crusade. I was almost halfway done when I stopped. It's an interesting series, and I do like the characters~
All right, off I go. Feel free to poke! \o/
