Beyond Redemption

I feel horrible and out of it, so no update like I was hoping for. I may even go back to the ER. I can’t believe I’m still this sick and fucked up. It sucks hairy balls. In kind news, I got lot of birthday wishes on FB, which was really nice and made a bad day better. But still, I’m going back to the doc if I don’t start feeling better soon. Oh, and my friend got me a birthday cake. Yay! 😀

Tomorrow is my birthday! Yay! And I got new art to celebrate -3 to be exact. Two of IG with IY and one with IY alone (A birthday gift from Cati!), and boy, he’s looking GOOD in all of them! (＾▽＾)

In sucky news, I had to go to the ER today. I’ve had a headache for 4 days -a bad one- and since none of my migraine methods worked, I was worried enough (and in pain enough) to get some professional help. Turns out, I have a sinus congestion/swelling that is working in tandem with a migraine. A bunch of IV meds managed to stop the pain for a while, but now, hours later, I feel the pain coming back. This fucking sucks and is not at all how I wanted to spend my birthday. Oh, and I dropped my iPod and cracked the glass. I was on a fucking roll today.

Anyway, I’m working on my 2014 main site (I try to change it every year) and it should be done in a couple of days. I’m going to do a new skin for Absolution, too (Probably the one Cati made for me). I was hoping to have an update for tomorrow, but I’m not putting any stock in it. The pain in my head is a killer once it really gets going. It just blows that I’m dealing with this at all. s(・｀ヘ´・;)ゞ

Anyway, I’m off!

Ugh. Just when the flu finally left me (Though I never got rid of the cough), I started getting headaches, head pressure, stuffy nose, etc, and it turns out to be a sinus infection, which is, apparently, common after a bad cold or flu. The headaches are the worst -battling one now- so I’m going to see my doc in about an hour to get some antibiotics. This sucks.

It’s been the week from hell with the flu, but I’m finally getting better. I have a persistent cough (So fucking sick of that) and a little weakness, but almost all of the other stuff is finally gone. Yesterday I got back one of my IG & IY commissions. It’s from someone I never used before and I like it -very detailed and nice. I’m expecting another from Sarah-Belle and my awesome Cati is making my last one (InuYasha alone) and she’s such a sweetie that she’s giving it to me for my birthday! (●⌒∇⌒●) So I have fun stuff to look forward to. ^^

If you’re on my f-list at Facebook, then you already know. If not, well, I have the flu. I’ve had it since about Friday and it just got worse over time. It feels like I’m slowly –slowly– trying to come out of it, but it’s still pretty bad. I’m extremely weak and can’t do much more than move from my bed to my couch. My throat is raw, I have a violent cough, was feverish, chilled, and dizzy for a good while… it’s no fun. I haven’t had the flu since grade school, so my body is in complete upheaval. Even my taste buds are completely off and all I can consume is tea and soup. I lost about 10lbs already simply from being able to take more than a few bites throughout the day. Ugh. The weakness is the worst, though. Just sitting up in bed requires so much effort… but at least the horrible body aches have ceased. Anyway, I’m not sure when I’ll come out of this. It seems like whenever I get back into writing something fucked up goes down. This is bullshit.

I hope I’m not sick on my birthday. That would truly suck balls.

Stay healthy.

It started a couple of days ago, but right now, it’s at its height: Fever, chills, violent cough, dizziness, raw throat, sinus headache, stuffy nose -all the good stuff. I can only sit up for short periods at a time and I can barely eat, so I won’t be around for a bit. But thanks to everyone who has been leaving reviews. I’ll try to reply to them when I get better. ✿♥‿♥✿

I’ll make this quick. So sorry I wasn’t able to update this weekend. Time got away from me. My friend was re-admitted into the hospital, so it’s just been busy here. But there’s a snowstorm today, which has grounded me, so I’m going to use the time to write. I don’t know if I’ll get enough done to throw up an update today, but I’ll definitely try.

Thanks for sticking around and your continued support! I appreciate the way you guys have been checking out my older stuff for the first time and really enjoying it enough to leave some comment love. It reminds me that I have lovelies waiting to read and that’s a strong motivator. (｡♥‿♥｡)

As soon as things calm down around here, I think I’m going to launch a fan appreciation period. Do you guys remember that? I used to take one month out of the year and update every WIP in my library so that every one of my readers would get to read a new chapter for something they’re following. I’m not sure I can pull off everything in 30 days anymore with carpal tunnel and so many WIPS, but how about I make a poll? I’ll list everything that I’m willing to update and the 5 with the most votes gets FA month. Sound good? (*^▽^*)

And in other news, I just got a glimpse of a WIP commission I ordered for IG 2014 from my Sarah-Belle and wow. I look amazing. (*≧▽≦) Gotta start looking that cool in real life! InuYasha is going to look pretty badass, too. Squee. Saw the WIP for my birthday art as well. It’s coming along cutely. I’m tying out a new artist and he’s a boss, but I have a unique palette with art, so we’ll see how it ultimately turns out.

Okay, that’s it, bbs! I’m going to get the poll up and some writing done for ya. 😀

EDIT: New chapter posted.

Good News and Bad News.

First, the bad. I’ve been under the weather and my nerves have been bothering me. Nerves are what makes carpal tunnel the hell it is. Don’t know what’s going on, but let’s hope that stops soon because I feel shitty and have a recurring headache.

The good news is that I’m doing some writing today. I’m jumping around with different fics -whatever works- so whichever I can complete first will be updated first. The chapters won’t be very long -like I said- I’m not feeling great lately. But hopefully it will be a little something to whet your palettes until I can get back to form. I really do what to end several fics in the next few months, so here’s to hoping I can do it.

Last, I saw a foreign movie the other day that I’d love to adapt into an IK fic. Not sure if I will, given all my WIPs, but it sure would be cute! Have an IY wallpaper!

Quickie update.

1. I finished my Secret Santa offering yesterday. Yay.
2. I’m working on a new chapter. I’ll try to have it posted before 2014.
3. For Xmas, since it’s been so long, I’ll debut a new skin.
4. I’m probably going to rid myself of two more “friends” very soon.
5. Thanks for sticking with me another year. ☆*･゜ﾟ･*\(^O^)/*･゜ﾟ･*☆

The Placebo concert was absolutely awesome. Hands down. They didn’t just play songs from the new CD (which sounded so great live that I ended up enjoying them), but they played a lot of my faves and I genuinely had a ball. I went with my friend who got us into the seated VIP area, which gave us a great view and allowed us to get some great fancams.

Not sure if any of you like Placebo, but if you do, here are the cams.

^That was the encore.

If you want to see all of them, here are the links:

UGH. I love Placebo. (⊙◡ु⊙｡)

In other news, the very next day, my friend was hospitalized again. He was able to come home on Friday, but chances are that Sunday or Monday he’ll be readmitted. It’s not anything super serious; they want to try new meds on him and would prefer to do so at the hospital so they can see how his body reacts to them before sending him home. It was a surprise, though, and kinda threw things out of wack for me.

My arms are better. I’m taking those supplements that deal with nerves (Carpal and cubital is all nerve pain) and I do see some improvement. I’m hoping in coming weeks the pain dwindles down enough to where it doesn’t hurt daily like it does now.

Anyway, I’ll be writing tonight now that I have a little more mobility (and painkillers). Don’t expect greatness. With so much going on, my mind hasn’t been on the words like it should be, but I’ll see what I can do. 0.~
