In Which Gardening Will Not Redeem Diocletian

Good morning, my friend! I am fighting against the desire to sleep, as I do want to write a post today. My eyes are so heavy, my muscles are all failing, it is like I am going to explode in exhaustion. And yet, maybe it isn't sleep, it could be anemia in any case, I hope you are in a healthier position than me, today? Of course, do let me know. And also, let me know how is the weather? Here it is one day of mild winter, which is so much appreciated. Fun how just being some centimeters in a different direction, concerning the planets, can make a difference! Here, it means the difference between a scorching day, and a more mild one. There could be influence of the ocean currents as well, but anyway, I would love to jump to today's theme, that motivated me to write. If you allow me, let is jump to it! As I mentioned anemia, let us turn to gardening, or more specifically, to cabbages and lettuces. I saw a post today that pointed that Emperor Diocletian abdicated the throne to go ta...

In Which I go Back to the drawing board with the Byzantine Dream

Good morning, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Friday, and I wish you the best! How are you today? How are things? As for me, I am okay, I’d say… one step at a time, it is all we can do, in the end. I really hope I can work on a drawing, maybe, today? I don’t like to whine in my blog posts, don’t like that in the slightest. I feel like I am wasting your time when I do it. It is a balance I am yet to feel like I struck. There are things that trouble me, and this is my blog, but I care for you, and worry I may be wearing your patience thin. Why do I always think friends are so unforgiving? Perhaps because I can be in such way?
I was playing some Europa Universalis this early morning, the game was going well… till it stopped going my way. It sucks immensely. The game does not have to be a cakewalk, but having three major nations on my throat at the same time? I HATE that I return to the game once I am back to the computer, this time I will make an extra effort not to do it, I can perhaps play something else instead…? Or work on a drawing? As for studying, it does not help I never feel like I am going somewhere with it. I end up neglecting and forgetting my studying responsibilities. I don’t even know if I’m capable of making it work. It is very demoralizing, how hard things can be. Speaking of hard… I need to vent this somewhere… my credit card bills are through the roof and I am not sure how I will be able to pay them off. It will take a miracle. This is the sort of whining I talk that I regret and worry it hurts me and you. But this have to go out somewhere, or else I am going to explode!!!! I suppose I could just post this post just for the sake of it and won’t tell people it exists, it will be forgotten, just as a desperate cry of someone that feels his life is going badly.
