**Zillah** Wed Mar 07, 2012 5:09 pm

Name: Zillah/zephyr13

Characters: Layla Page, Simeon Marsden, Milton Wenceslaus, Huxley Constable

Dates: Now until -?

Reason: So I owe you guys an apology for not being around these past few weeks. It's not good form, especially for a member of staff, but my heart is really not in it right now for a number of reasons.

The primary thing is that my life outside the internet and the people in it have been demanding of pretty much all my time lately. Most important is my boyfriend, who is currently living with me and suffering from various medical ailments. He's out of work with back problems, and just yesterday I spent eight hours in the ER with him for chest pains. It didn't turn out to be anything major, luckily, but it was still quite a scare. Almost all of my time is spent with him lately, lending him support and comfort during this stressful time, as he's having a lot of financial difficulties as well. His stress affects me too and I'm doing the best I can to remain positive and be there for him while keeping my own shit together. In addition to this, I've started going over to my mom's house a couple of nights a week to hang out and work out with her.

Also, I'm just bored of the internet lately. After sitting in front of a computer all day at work, the last thing I want to do when I get home is sit down at another computer for several hours until I go to bed. Lastly, I currently have no muse to post at Highgrove. It's hard for me to hang out in the cbox and chat when I can't post. It makes me feel bad. I'm not sure how many of my characters I'm actually keeping. Fabien is definitely going, which is why I haven't listed him above. Hux is probably going but I haven't decided yet. Milton's fate depends on whether or not Cecil and Harry are sticking around, so I may end up just keeping Simeon and Layla. What it all comes down to, I guess, is that I need a break while life sorts itself out. Hopefully I'll return refreshed and renewed, and before too long.
