Well.
I have an awesome thing that I can't talk about.
It's seriously expensive. It means three trips to America over the next 12 months. And it's totally going to be *worth every penny*.
I got the news about it this morning and I am feeling surprisingly calm. Despite not having a clue how I'm going to pay for it.
In other news - work overpaid me the last two months and now I owe them over £1200. (I didn't notice, because they were supposed to put me down to sick pay and they didn't. And I didn't realize that they were going to do that because they didn't like, tell me or anything.)
I'm still sick.
However things do seem to be shifting for me. And I'm working on (possibly) other ways to make money while still being too sick to do my job, and without pushing myself so hard that I get even sicker. Preferably, without pushing myself at all.
We'll see about that, I guess. My schedule is still featuring "rest and play" pretty damn heavily because that's about all I seem to be capable of.
So um, yeah. Things right now? Are kind of weird. But possibly getting a bit better.
Oh, and in fandom news, I have a Christmas story due on Sunday and I haven't started it. Blargh.
ETA: With regard to the story? I could totally use someone to hold my hand and help me talk through ideas, via Twitter, email, IM, DW/LJ comments, or whatever else might work for you.
This is me, asking for help and support.
