I just had a very sobering experience. I was so happy to finish my play and see that my DA view count has almost reached 2000 that I was oblivious to most of what was going on around me. I was just very pleased with myself. Heck, last night one of you guys sent me a message on AIM saying that you loved my work (still trying to work out who this mysterious person is, could be a troll for all I know). And when my comic failed to update on time because I didn't have the art I barely flinched because I knew things would work out. Things are going too well for something to go wrong, right?

And then my sister sends me a message telling me she can't stop crying because she can't stand living at two houses, switching from week to week.

For those of you who don't know my parents are in the process of divorcing. My mom cheated, got caught, and then my dad got kicked out of the house because of financial issues. Since he makes more money he can afford to have his own house and pay child support as well even though the house he's currently in is just a rental.

My sister is suffering because one of my parents made a mistake. Meanwhile I'm sitting here in a college dorm room far away from all of that. Despite living so close to my college my parents wanted me to have the college experience, how ironic that in doing so they've added my share of the burden to that which they've given my sister.

I'm going to write my sister something now, it's probably going to become my next big project. Gonna work on my other stories soon too.

To whoever gets the 2000th view and can prove it somehow, or the first person after the 2000th to care enough to pester me, I'll give you a commission piece.
