Has it been two months?

OK, not quite two months, but very close. I got my flu shot today, mostly sponging off of dad's hospital registration. Yeah, health care is still another thing I have to get on to registering for at some point, but I've been very meh at keeping up with the bureaucratic work. On the other hand, I've finished editing two sections of my dad's newest stuff, so that's something. Of course, just as I finish, Dad sends another section for editing. It never ends...

Meanwhile, I'm getting the hang of online shopping, huge here in the East. Everything is done by phone apps, which is a bit annoying, as I prefer being able to use the computer. But here things have gone full wireless and it's pretty much impossible to get any service whatsoever if you don't have a working phone. Which makes me wonder how anyone gets stuff up and running in the rural areas. Like, I get that 90-98% of the population is in the metro regions now, but even a small percent of a large population is still a huge amount of people. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I finally got an update from the shipping company, so my stuff is due to arrive in about 3 weeks if all else goes according to schedule. I'm crossing my fingers that customs won't give me too much trouble when I ship stuff in. Although you never know with bureaucrats.

Gaming wise, I've been pretty meh on things. Honestly, haven't really felt like dumping much time into doing serious gaming (although I finally got Tales of the Abyss up and running, so that's something). And now NaNoWriMo is sneaking up on me and I have no freaking clue how I'm going to do this when I'm constantly overwhelmed with doing a bunch of other stuff. (Just spent like, 2 hours trouble shooting computers as I figure out how the home network is set up because both parents have no idea what they're doing when it comes to technology.) Anyhoo. Yes, I realize the poor Pokémon AU is once again on hiatus. I haven't completely given up on it, but it's looking hard to even get some regular writing in, let alone going back to work on a previous piece of work.

Oh, also forgot how immensely cold and dry it gets over here. My skin is dying. (And yes, I know I'm being very vague. I'm trying to not leave too many digital footprints because...y'know.)
