After being offline for a few months, I come back to a storm of replies and favorites. I had no choice but to wonder "what the hell?" I know I ain't that popular, and I know I haven't been whoring my name out. Evidently, took notice of something, because my 3rd set of test sprites for ESP.er was featured as 9/22's daily deviation.

Well, all I can really do is send my appreciation. I'm still reduced to damned near offline status, and replying to all of the newfound comments and faves is near impossible on deviantart mobile. I love my blackberry, yes, but deviantart isn't one of its strong points.

So, instead... let me just send a general thanks. I'd love to reply to everything individually, but that will have to wait until I get a stable connection again. Piggy-backing off the neighbor's wireless only works until they catch on, ya know.

In addition to that, about all I can really do is provide a minor status update on the very project that has gotten me my net props. ESP.er is still without a programming force, but everything else is moving along at a half decent pace. It won't see a release any time soon, but hey... I'm one guy. In between struggling at a dead-end job, spending what little time I got with my woman, and tending to her little monster (love the guy, but damn... what a pair of lungs!), I can only find so much time to work on my baby. The general project idea has expanded so much since the last update, which means I'll probably end up having to make tough yet realistic decisions as to what will make it in and what will find itself on the chopping block. It sucks, but hey...
