Hey everyone, I just wanted to clear the air surrounding my rather lack of participation and involvement in current staff and site matters. This past week and a half has been a rather difficult one for me. I was assigned an additional set of hours for work last week, this initially cut my time online by about an hour or two. This wasn't devastating, but it was enough to get on my nerves.

Then I found out I have to take a particularly difficult exam this week so studying has been what I have had to do the majority of my free time. Typically, this also doesn't bother me. For those who know me, I typically shift between homework and site work throughout the night.  This hindered me but it didn't disrupt my muse.  

Now for the actual muse killer. I was informed on Wednesday that my grandfather has been hospitalized in my states largest medical center. The mouth cancer he had been fighting effectively for the past 6 months has now aggressively spread to his throat, chocking him. The doctors are giving him roughly a week to several months depending on radiation, but it has now become terminal.

Needless to say, this has all but killed any desire for me to post. But, despite this I do intend to give my 100% on what I can do. My posts may be delayed, I may forget things that need doing, and I may even disappear completely ever other day.  But I promise my posts will remain on point and everything that needs doing will get done. Just please be patient with me until I can properly adjust to my current situation.

We will be here when you return.

No worries, Ach. Nobody could blame you.

You know Zanmato and myself though (your ever favorite mages and demon), we'll keep your spot nice and warm for your return =)
