New News

On Fandoms and other Ramblings

Book Description
Life is not what I had hoped it would be at this point. Growing up, I always thought I would have a house, a wife, a dog, and at least one child by the time I was 34. Well, I turn 34 in 5 months and I can’t even get the house part right. Looking into the Future of Me… all I want in this world is that House and Beginning to Work Towards Adulthood. That is what I want. But working where I am as of January 2018? I don’t see a good path forward. Hopefully, something changes. Hopefully, I can make something happen or something happens for me. Until then, I just have to keep working through the maze… hope I find a little cheese now and then.
