Thought I made it clear now--

Hello everyone!

Ascian-trash reporting for duty! I still exist. It's been a rough couple of months and only because I've been properly mourning Emet-Selch and thus does the ADHD come in and voila, hyperfixation. It's been eat, sleep, breathe Emet-Selch-- I've actually hit on some REALLY good RPers and I've created a lot of really fun stories and gotten to know my Emet-Selch muse. He is a monster, I haven't had a muse hit me THIS hard (dare I say he is bigger than Citan Uzuki-- I am afraid to say this, but it's the truth).

In non-FFXIV related news-- for my 40th birthday, my husband and I went to California. It was fun but it was also bittersweet as I had to deal with problematic family issues and the fact that my grandmother STILL does not have a headstone. This is of course typical of my family, no surprise. Also dealing with the constant jealousy and vitriol from my Aunt Cathy was also pretty damn amusing. But for all of that, there was an overwhelming surge of nostalgia of being back 'home'. Like I hadn't been back there in 16 years but it still felt like only yesterday that I was a teenager and wandering those streets, and of course it was just as much fun showing where I grew up to my husband.

And Disneyland was ALOT of fun, and I bought the Enchanted Tiki Room Dress, I bought Haunted Mansion Minnie Ears, I had DOLE WHIPS and BENGAL BARBEQUE and ate TONS (more than I should've, probably). Vacation was nice though and it was a nice little respite from real life.

So how has everyone else been?
