Well...GTW was a bit of a bust. Oh well...better luck with the next one!

Anyhow, I know it's been a few months since my last update on here. Things have been pretty hectic. Since losing the paid writing job, I've also lost the house and moved to the other side of Vegas. I should be sad, really, but I'm oddly...happy? I guess it's because I'm free of most of the financial restrictions that have been plaguing me for years, and now I can truly focus on my life, my writing and my education. In no actual order.

So, here I am. Still working part-time at the bookstore, still in Vegas and (on a good note) attached to a great girl, Konta. I didn't think that last one would happen so soon, particular with me not being in a very good position in life. But hey...just goes to show what can happen when you least expect it. And it did manage to boost my self-confidence, too.

Unfortunately, I won't be on very often until I get a new computer. My lappy has suffered at the hands of a very new, very nasty worm. System Restore didn't help. A driver recovery did nothing. Even going the full way of a destructive recovery has left it with a nasty restart problem. My friend Kim and I are both guessing that it's a hard drive corruption, so it's either A)invest in a new laptop HD, or B)get a whole new computer. I might go with option B just to have a dedicated desktop as my new rig instead of a lappy this time around.

So that's it. I've been going through some contemporary poetry while I have the chance to. A little Neruda, some Garcia Lorca and a little William Carlos Williams. Meanwhile, I'm in the process of brewing up more lyrical and poetic goodness, so keep an eye on my page! ^_^
