Actual content--interesting things, 100 Things, challenges, fic, original content, basically me NOT being a reclusive dick--will return on Saturday, October 19th.

Why then?

That's a day after I get back from my NEXT doctor's appointment.

The fact is, things keep getting worse. My leg has flared to the point where it feels just like the beginning, the muscle having wasted to the point where it is visibly thinner than the other leg. My arms and legs are a searing, burning pain throughout half of the day, my eyes are a painful, scrapey mess, and--the most annoying thing right now--motherfucking ESTROGEN. My brain is so scrambled, it's like the brainzaps are the norm now and sudden bursts of clarity are the brainzaps now. Friday, I'm hoping to get some answers.

I WILL answer to comments dropped here--kuro_pantsu, we need to work on a schedule for braaaaaaaaaains the thingy, and I figured out why my brain couldn't figure two things at once--that cocky bastard WAS a vet--FOR THE OTHER GUYS.

alkonost_storm, when I get back, we can eenie-meenie-minie-moe any RP to start up again and I am NOT allowed to argue. (TL;DR--I'm your bitch for the evening!)

EVERYONE ELSE whose handles I haven't memorized? SEND WHITE MAGES. ALL OF THE WHITE MAGES. EVEN THE ONES THAT AREN'T SO GOOD AT IT.

I’d like to begin by apologizing for making anyone worry, but I get the feeling that would be rather presumptuous of me.  Just let me do it anyway, though.  I feel like I need to.

I’m sorry.  I’m an idiot, a fool, sometimes drunk, often STUPID, and I’ve got to get things together for many people’s sake, but mostly my own.

There.

Now that that’s done, I have a good (well technically terrible) explanation for my extended absence, and this time it wasn’t work, or lack of sleep, or anything trivial like that.

I might have spent this time in the loony bin.

( Almost verbatim from my loony-bin journal. Except with slightly less cursing. )

I decided to bring my computer to work today.  I figured I'd use one of the wireless cards to update the computer.  Little did I know that I've been running XP Pro Service Pack 1 and that most of the things that I needed weren't even compatible with said configuration.

Sor for the laste two hours and fifteen minutes I've been updating things like mad, sitting here and waiting for this ebb-and-flow strength connection to pick up a little bit of speed so that it will go a little faster...that's a laugh.

At this minute I'm still updating.  I need drivers for my mp3 player and without an installation disk it's going so much slower than it ought that it's almost funny.  Not quite but almost.
