Redundant, but...

I just recently joined Twitter, so I've added their app in the righthand bar, if you'd like to follow me along!

In any case, I am off today and tomorrow from work, which includes my payday! I'm planning on seeing the new Wolverine movie with a couple of friends from work, and maybe picking up a few games for the first time in, well it seems like months.

The thing is, I've been trying to pay off a loan I had, as well as paying down some debts, in addition to dealing with a reduced hour schedule. Now, however, I have about 5 more hours a week, which increases the money I can play around with quite a bit. Of course, that's not even taking into account that the only bill I have to pay this paycheck is an 85$ loan payment! :3

Hopefully still doing well tomorrow,

Allergies

I normally don't have any reaction to pollen in the air.

Today, however, marks the first time I had to call in sick due to allergic reactions. I was brought to my doctor, who prescribed me some medicine that I can't remember what it was called, but it stopped all the itching almost immediately; it's knocking me out though.

Hopefully I'll be able to come in tomorrow, because I really don't want to call in two days in a row.

Speaking of work-related woes, a co-worker has come down with a rather serious illness. I will not name them for privacy reasons, or the disease, but I am hoping they will pull through.

On a lighter note, however, I talked to Jenn Dolari, the creator of Closetspace on AIM! Hopefully, I didn't make a total fool out of myself :V

Web comics and updates: economic recession and its touch of miserliness; Vernor Vinge

Today I thought I'd write a blog post.

I notice that a lot of comics have taken to updating less frequently, and people like to complain about it; however, seeing as they have to pay for things as well, and most often do NOT get much money from their creations, they have to get a job. A job means less free time, which can mean less frequent updates.

People are still, however, worried about the recession even though the stock market has been rising for the past month and a half. Things can actually get better, people, move along!

Also, Vernor Vinge is an awesome writer, and I recommend his books highly.
