Hey!
I just want to rant a bit and let you guys know how I've been and what I've been feeling these days.
Work has really consumed me. My company has gone insane lately. I work at a bank, and if you guys know, banks have something called a "Core Banking System." My company just upgraded it, and it requires a lot of development and testing.
It's really draining. I've been working very late hours, and sometimes I don't even go home from the office… even on weekends. Like this weekend, I just got back from the office on Sunday morning.
What's worse, I haven't played any games for weeks now, almost a month, and I probably won't be able to until mid-May when this is all over.
I also had a fight with my wife. Yeah… she hates being neglected, and I understand where she's coming from. But this work really consumes me, and I can't just resign. If you guys have heard rumors about "black companies" in Japan… yeah, I might be one of those guys lol.
I really want to fix things with her. That's why lately, whenever I have time to write, I make Zaboru more relaxed, spending time with his family and having fun with Ayumi… because honestly, that's what I want too lol.
And if you guys have noticed the drop in quality of the story, I'm really sorry. Also for the constant breaks. But I promise you, I will never stop unless I die. (Though my health is actually getting better since I've stopped eating junk food and started fasting more these days.)
Hopefully everything will be back to normal by mid-May next month. Just hang in there, okay?
And I'm sorry for not replying to chats and comments. I barely even have time to check them now.
If only I could stop working and focus on this novel and my life… but yeah, I still need money to live lol.
Anyway, thank you guys. I really hope none of you have to go through something like this, especially those of you who haven't started working yet.
Cheers, and thanks for reading. And yeah… you guys are very cool!
