Happy Birthday to meeee!
Hello, everyone!
Today is my birthday. Behold, I am one step closer to middle age! \o/
To celebrate my birthday, I'm going to order my favorite pineapple fried rice from the Thai joint across the street. :9
Going out to celebrate has to be put on hold. Work is heavy. While I've managed to finish everything but Voice vol 3, the book is due in a little over a week. It's been a mad scramble. I'm working 10 hours a day, and preferably longer. Thank the manga gods this vol is a little easier than vol 2 and vol 1. Though considering how nasty vol 1 was--with all the crazy shoujo romcom shenanigans to hook readers--being a little easier than that isn't saying much. Heh heh. *headdesk*
Spicer-kitty is doing well! Now it's turned a bit chilly again, his favorite fuzzy kitty basket is back on my desk, and he's currently curled up inside it. Kakashi is giving me the eye, hoping for more food. He's turned rather pudgy. My own weight is holding steady. The green juice once a day isn't taking any weight off at the moment, but with all the stress I'm under, I am happy to not be gaining. (I always gain weight when I'm under stress. Saying level is delightful to me in this situation.)
Not much going on besides work work work. I did make it to book club, but that's my only bit of fun in weeks. So it goes, when in work hell.
Yesterday I did 9 pages, including one pink and one orange. I'm so proud of myself! I want to do that much again! XD
Everyone, thanks for sticking with me for another year! *hugs for all*

I'm sorry to hear that you're still so swamped with work, but you're sure kicking butt at getting it done!
I hope we can do drinks to celebrate another year when you've got some time.

if it's of any consequence i thought of you on your actual bday, but it's been A Week for me as well, and i didn't manage to do anything more than think about you, and for that i apologize. should have sent you a text at the v. least.
anyway, hurrah for work success and for spicer-kitty doing better.
