Well, readers, 2013 was an interesting year. I completed a few things on my bucket list. Some things were out of my hands financially, some things I lost interest in, and others… well I kinda wish I never put it on there.

I got my tattoo. I went out of state on a total and absolute misadventure that brought me a great new friendship. And… I fell in…. like with someone.

I stopped baking about halfway through the year. Why? Because starting a food business out of your home in Los Angeles County is harder than I thought. The sink in my house is still not fixed and is, in fact, worsening in condition, but we still can’t afford to fix it, so it’ll probably stay that way for a while.

I’m still working on the novel. I get bursts of inspiration to write, but my special writing place has been taken away, due to a restaurant opening in that sad, little marketplace. I have no idea where I can write now. Maybe I’ll get a folding table and chair from Ikea and just leave it in the trunk of my car. That would make it easier to just buckle down and write wherever I can find some privacy.

Also! Good news! I’m currently employed! I found work in a field that I really love and I’m hoping to make it full time. It’s interesting work, doesn’t have amazing pay, but it’s work and it’s in town, which is good.

And about that … falling in like…. sigh. Now I remember why I stopped liking IRL people. It never pans out. Ah well, at least I can say I tried.

Hopefully I’ll get to writing the new bucket list soon.
