Hey everybody!

Quite a week for me. Been very busy. Mostly on work stuff. I had to do taxes this week too, which wasn't fun, but was very informative.

Last year, I didn't make all that much money. Just enough that I had to file taxes, but I was able to do it all myself. This year, there was a big increase in funding, and I had to figure all that out, including how much I had to give the government (about 25% of what I made). So I had to hire an accountant to do all of that for me and walk me through everything. She was great and taught me so much and now I feel like a real damn boss-bitch. I got all my stuff organized and my financials in order. Still have to come up with some more money before April to pay the taxes, which were higher than I expected them to be, but I think I can handle it.

Besides all of that, I've been cleaning and organizing my desk space, trying to get rid of a bunch of things, and just generally becoming more adult.

I also played a bunch of new video games. We've been playing through the new Dead Space, which is super fun. Yesterday, I played a bunch of games just trying them out.

I tried Effie, which I'll probably go back to sometime. It was pretty fun. I tried Else Heart.Break() , which was interesting visually, but I'm not really into. I tried Tooth and Tail, which was another that I thought I would like, but I ended up not really being into all that much.

Then I tried I Am Fish. And I immediately fell in love with it. My partner saw me playing it and wanted to watch me play. So we ended up playing through the entire game in 6 hours yesterday. And I absolutely adored it. It's equally cute and frustrating, but never so frustrating that I felt like quitting. Just enough to make me want to try again. Loved it.

I guess that's about all I got this week. Feel like I've been doing things constantly, but it's mostly just work work work. Hope you all are doing great and have an amazing week. Love ya!
