I know I've been exceptionally quiet as of late, but then again the only time I update this journal is to inform of commission information so this might count for something! It's been a very long time since I've actually talked about the goings on over here. I think my birthday is as good as any reason to write a small journal! I turned twenty-four today, which hardly feels any different from whence I turned twenty-two, or twenty for that matter. I've come to the point in my life where every day is a treasure and every friend a priceless gift as I move forward with my life. I apologize if things sound a little sappy, but there it is!

Today was very quiet in comparison to my past birthdays, but I didn't want it any other way. Spending time with my friends and family right now is a high priority as I ready myself for US Air Force basic training in the coming months. It was a relaxing day full of movies ('The Grey' and 'Thor' amongst them), one heck of a chocolate cake that is a diabetic's bane, brand new tires for my car, and one too many "I like this. ANOTHER!" Thor/Avengers jokes on my part. There's even a 'Ring of Fire' eclipse going on today, but I'm far too eastward to be able to see it (but thanks anyway, Space! It's the thought that counts). ;>
Joking aside, I had a wonderful final-at-home birthday this day and logging onto this site to see and read all of these wonderful well-wishes and beautiful gift works has made it even sweeter! I can't thank you guys enough. I'll do my best to reply back to each and every one of you! You are all amazing and I'm grateful to know and meet so many of you.

Oh yes, the final number:
Hey =Shadowmanic, I just brewed up some more coffee. Would you like some?

;D

Small edit:
A commission status and priorities list (widget) can now be found on my main page directly below the journal! It will be constantly updated as usual, I'm just tidying up my journal space. If anyone has any questions or concerns, please contact me!
