Whew...
Added 2020-03-15 14:29:08 +0000 UTCIt's been a while since I've written anything life-related, but here goes~
I'd rather not make this too wordy but after 7 of the worst years ever I've finally quit my job. It's in part out of necessity, part because the company's dying, and part because management has been exceptionally aggro towards everybody since the company is dying. Gross. I'll appreciate this a lot more when I'm less annoyed about it but ooooo I wanted this for yeeears. (Also family intends to move very far away and that means starting life over anyway, so it's rather well timed.)
So after this final week of work, I have 1 year to get the ball rolling on whatever the hell it is I want to do and see what sticks. Possible/probable itinerary includes:
- Finish April Fool's plans
- More time to draw, actually finishing the stuff in my 'To Finish' folder
- Comics & Animation
- Learn how to code/do 3D modelling so that I can make games
- Carrying out additional auctions each month. Some will be on Patreon some on FA, at least one monthly auction will be CalicoRewardsPoints-exclusive, others will be for money but points can be applied as a discount.
As a heads up/spoiler alert, April 1st will not be the monthly usual thing, it will be a gag stream. The real monthly theme for April will be doing an arbitrary number of color sketch requests throughout the month. If the request contains bunnies, pastels, or candy, it will grant points similar to December's special. Expect a post about it on 4/2/2020
That's all I've got for now, looking forward to taking a breather and life not being godawful for a while évè; It'll be like a real vacation, like summer vacation. If things go well, it won't have to end, so...

This, I'm going to try to hold bias/favor towards people who asked last time and didn't get theirs done.
