Why is IRC so damn empty?→[More:]Wheeeeere aaaare yoouuuuuu?
I haven't been in IRC at all in a bit over two weeks 'cause I moved to a sort of artist/weirdo compound kinda-sorta co-op kinda place. No, it's not a squat, though I have some similar living conditions.
While I have electricity and WiFi, I've been busy cleaning, building and prepping my eventual home. I currently don't have reliable access to running water, toilet, or shower. Not to mention cooling, and it's getting really hot. (breaking and holding 100 F this week for the first time this year.)
Meanwhile I'm also still working a shirt/tie corporate job. Without a car. I told u i wuz hardcore!
Needless to say, I've been busy not only just surviving and maintaining pseudo-yuppie job while camping and psuedo-homeless, but also building and cleaning and all that.
Life is complicated, but it's certainly not boring.
