Figured I'd update since it has been a minute, or a week, or whatever. I've had a couple people check in me, which I'm super grateful for given the fact that I haven't really been maintaining good contact with people. That's what I like to do on WDC though. I like to read blogs and comment and check in on people. Sucks to be on the other end and not be able to spend a lot of time doing that. Anyway, I ended up having to get surgery again this week. For those who don't know, I had oral surgery over 3 months ago and it never properly healed so I've been in, at minimum, moderate pain since then. Went in for a checkup and they said it's just not healing at all at this point, so they had to basically redo a large portion of the surgery... cut back into it, clean out all the damaged tissue, sew it back up. So now I'm in stitches again, face all swollen, on pain meds. Basically feels like I'm never going to get better and it's very intrusive because I need that part of my body to like talk, eat, and drink. The pain is significant enough that it really just eats away time and I can't even be distracted by other things. It's just a lot to deal with on top of my dissociation episode and just everything that everyone must deal with in 2020. It's rough, truly. But I want to get back to doing some 'normal' things, including WDC. I thought about signing up for the official round of "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" in September, but I don't think I want to commit myself to that given my current state. Instead I think I'm going to try to get involved in a birthday event or two and then dig back into reading people's blogs, update "Invalid Item" , and reviewing for "Invalid Item" . Just some social things, I guess. That's the goal anyway. I also need to start building up my GPs so I'll have enough to renew when that comes around next year. I used to get a lot more GPs from reviewing here, partially because I reviewed way more, but also partially because there were many more people crediting reviews on the public review page. I swear, I used to get 3,000-5,000 GPs per review between all the reviewing groups and just random review credits. I'm not complaining, it just means I need to get on it and try to average at least 2-3 reviews per day so I'm not scrambling at next renewal time. Anyway, I'm here-ish. Struggling like hell to recover. But I think doing normal things like writing, reviewing, etc. will help at least on a social level. So, I dunno, see you in your blog or inbox soon?
