I have rickets!

Okay, not really rickets. Rickets is a childhood disease. I just have a fairly severe deficiency in vitamin D.

Before you start making fun, I do actually get some sunlight, and I do eat a healthy variety of foods, especially dairy and vegetables, and meats. So I shouldn't be deficient at all in vitamin D whatsoever. And yet...

Of course, this time it's coinciding with some severe GI issues. I have chronic problems with my GI tract, and at the very least I have recently discovered that I have neither stomach cancer nor bacterial ulcers. So now I only have approximately 5,290 more diseases they have to test for before I know what is wrong with me and how to fix it. More than likely the deficiency is due to malabsorption of food. Fun stuff.

I should be putting something creative up here soon. I've just been either crashing out early (lack of vitamin D means a huge lack of energy, and that's been hitting me hard) or working on other creative ventures (food or fanfiction) that I don't often talk about here.

But soon again. I swear.
