Not this time. I promised myself I wouldn't do this again, and I'm not going to. The last time this hap­pened, I spent a year and a half of my life hid­ing. Not again.

I can't afford to do that to myself again. Nope.

I'm here, and here I will stay.

I've started work again on DVD­philer. Not nec­es­sar­ily because I need to, but moreso because it's been bug­ging me that I have done absolutely noth­ing thus far. Need to be able to fol­low through on a project, I'm telling myself.

I'm con­sid­er­ing leav­ing the com­pany I work for when my con­tract is up for nego­ti­a­tion in April. Not sure what's going to come of this, or even why I'm think­ing about it, but some things about it are start­ing to get to me. Usu­ally, this passes. And I'd really like more time to devote sim­ply to Smil­ing Peanut. But I just don't know right now. I'm attempt­ing to make good on think­ing things through, so no deci­sions now. Who knows.

I have offi­cially com­pleted the first ver­sion of stu­dio man­age­ment for DVD­philer. I believe the wheels are offi­cially turn­ing! Whee!
