Yeah, alright I guess. Ups and downs, ups and downs. On the up side, I should pay off my house in a week or two (waiting on paper work.) On the down side, our business is doing poorly and I will likely be looking for a job in the not-so-distant future. But I guess things are overall not so bad.

How’re things with you?

**Khadaji** , that’s great news about your house, congratulations! I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you and a job to cross paths.

I’m doing okay. Starting up school again soon for a year, doing an internship with a magazine company–just getting the experience I need to break into the publishing industry. And I finally cut my hair 😃

Hi, **Ministre**! I still noodle around but I haven’t got back into actual lessons–not enough money at the moment. Hopefully soon! What’s new with you?

**Der Trihs** , it’s always good to see you. _fist bump?_

Things are going well, finding myself with less time to spend on the Dope, and more things to do in the real world. You’ll just have to pick up the slack for me 😃

**Ogre**! It’s you! _snog-tackle_ Awesome. 😃

**ToeJam** , I am fully prepared to sacrifice my real life in your honour. That’s how committed a goddess of love I am. It’ll be hard spending all day on SD and TVTropes, but lo, I am resigned!

Let me check the book out of the library tomorrow and I’ll have it up. And I still hate everybody who’s reading _I Shall Wear Midnight_ right now, just so you know. _sniffle_

**Boyo Jim** , consider yourself friended… very sexily. Or something like that.
