Whoopsies.
I always fall into this trap when working on new things where it's non-stop for weeks on end.. and then I get too busy to work on it consistently. Between work, actively trying to learning Chinese, and having a social life again, my online presence has fallen even further down the list. Really, I prefer it this way, but it's nice to come in and write out my thoughts, too.

I have a partner now! Not the mentioned-four-months-ago work crush, but a friend I've known for quite some time. We both had mutual feelings, I got drunk and impatient and asked them out, that sort of thing. The eight-year slow burn. It was really worth it, though, since they're... really everything I needed right now. I'm not gonna talk about politics and how I feel about them, but finally seeing my partner after the election the other day reminded me how much I really am loved.
And other than that, my life has really just been the same. I'm just gearing up for the holidays and living life as well as I can - stuff may change very dramatically in the next few months, but I'm not really sure as of yet. I'm always hoping for the best but expecting the worst.
