I'm going to go ahead and say that I'm officially back after about a million life distractions, a fried hard drive and my tablet(s) being generally uncooperative. I have been doing lots of art (hopefully things that I will be able to post soon) and writing like a madman during my classes. I've mostly been working a lot on this short story that I started a while back called Welcome To Okolnir. It's a post-apocalyptic story set about 9 or 10 years from now. The name comes from Norse mythology, from the safe haven that is supposed to be left after Ragnarok, or something like that. I don't really remember. But I'm hoping you guys will enjoy it. B

I had intended to write a poem for this day, my tribute of remembrance to those now lost, but I still cry every time, so maybe later this week. I remember seeing the planes crash on TV. Today is my mother's birthday, so I remember we were going to my grandma's to celebrate. It was all over the news, and when I saw the footage, I asked my mom why the planes were crashing into the building. She turned off the TV and told me not to worry about it for now. She later sat me down and explained it to me as best as she could. She told me that a lot of little girls and boys had lost their mommies and daddies that day and that I should pray for them.

I'm sorry...I just deleted all of the fabulous journal entries in my inbox...I just can't read them all...my inbox is backed up all the way to Christmas. So if anything majorly important happened that I didn't reply to, tell me. Please. And thank you... So happy to say hi to the new crew members. It feels like it has been forever. I love it when they ask me why they call Talia "the Crimson Kiss of Death." It is just generally a fun question to answer. School has started, and of course, is now eating up my time and causing drama, because that's how it is I guess. Right now, everything is good. *knocks on wood* Except personal finance. I hate
