Ouroboros has caught its tail and started its feast. The year has come to a close, and the next has begun. With 2025 now in the rearview mirror, I would like to share some highlights of my year. In no particular order:
- Celebrated 7 years at my job
- Took my first trip out to the Pacific Northwest, visiting Portland Oregon for my 35th birthday
- Saw my favorite band Sleep Token for the second time
- Started making more silly little TikTok videos for shits and giggles
- Wrote 75,240 total words, most of which being for Incinerate (and oh boy is it getting long)
- Dropped off a few of the remaining uncorrected proof copies of The Rokkoh Adventures to a local bookstore, and they all were sold (if you have one of these books, hello!)
- Expanded my library to the point that all of my shelves are full again (despite not really having any room for more shelves)
- Restarted my journey with Don’t Break The Chain (to learn more about this exercise, click here)
- Chose to remove Incinerate from the website (I may post more about his at a later date)
- Got my first tattoo
- Read one of the most infuriatingly boring books ever published (Diary of an Oxygen Thief by Anonymous, just so you can avoid it)
Here’s to 2026. Let’s try not to destroy each other.
