Almost there
Just a little further to go...My replacement has been hired at work, training is going well and I'm down to 9-hour days with us splitting the work, so maybe next week or so I'll be able to move on up full-time to my new position. (Just in time for the holiday crunch, yikes!)

The tooth abscess that's been a problem since March despite a root canal, weekly treatments, and multiple laserings of the remaining lump in my mouth (y'ever smelled yourself cooking? Oog.), has at last been diagnosed as a cyst at the tooth's root, up toward my cheekbone, and oral surgery will be this Friday. Pretty scared, but looking forward to having it over and out.

For the first time in nine years, will not be going to the winter Comiket. Will be going home instead, to spend the last week of December, first week of January and then some. Hate so much to miss it--but there'll be others. Right now I need to go home. It's that or drop, feels like.

So far nothing Saiyuuki-related...uhhh...the ShiSaiSa (Shiikuretto Saiyuuki Saakuru ;^) ) meets this Saturday; will share any relevant scoopage. (A bit on "Saiyuuki Gaiden" Vol. 3 [from Minekura-sensei on Nitro, not ShiSaiSa] went on Journey To The REST yesterday.) In the meantime, will be trying to get as much of Saiyuki Reload Gunstock done as possible before Zero-Sum comes out next week. Thanks for your patience...

Hey, mind if I drop you an e-mail some time in the next few days? I just have a few questions regarding Japanese Saiyuki fandom for my thesis, and I figured you'd probably have a better perspective on it than what I've gleaned from hanging around Japanese fansites. ;)

Aw, I hope surgery will go well for you and leave you as cyst-free happy person. Best of luck, and in-advance-well-wishes for you. <3 Don't stress yourself too much with the Gunstock workload - we'll be patiently waiting, it's the least we can do for all the awesome you share with us. :)

I'm sorry to hear that the tooth is still a problem. Best wishes on the surgery and don't sweat about Gunstock. Rest is more important. ;o)

Amen! You do so much to spoil us already. Taking a little personal time for, y'know, SURGERY will not create any grudges. We're all deeply impressed that you can even type after those 14 hour work days!

Home is where you belong on the holidays :) Hope you get that tooth thing worked out :( Do you need help paying for it or is it something that is just hard to treat?

I'm no good with x mas gifts so I'll just give you doodle as a get well ;)

Feel better!

Nine years? Good heavens, that's when we first met. (feels suddenly old) But yay for coming home for New Year's.

Hm.. Dental work is no fun. (Having had wisdom teeth extracted today.) Sorry to hear that.

So glad to hear the work situation is finally sorting itself out! There really are no words for what you've had to go through with that, and I'm so glad to see you're still... uh... alive, actually! *hugs*

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you this Friday, and listen to what people are saying about not stressing and resting and taking it slow and all that. You deserve it. (Not to mention need it, what with surgery and everything!)

Aww... damn tooth of DOOOOM!!!!! I'll try to persuade Uncle Zakkun to apply his great technique to your tooth problem, although I'm not so sure about the result. Shall we try the experiment?

Yikes, that sounds really aweful Ms. Kagenami. I hope you'll be able to recover soon after the suregery.

That vacation is over due, so hope you'll get plenty of rest.

My email's not working well right now, so this was the only way I thought of to write to you. Just visited the Journey To The Rest and wanted you to know I'm still visiting it! ^___^ Hope all's well and you have a very merry Christmas. Can't wait to hear from you again.
