#I wish you could smell it

[fox-bright]

Today I have all my weeded-plucked-washed-washed-washed volunteer applemint going in the dehydrator, and the house smells amazing. This will be steeped for tisanes for the rest of the year, probably mixed with chamomile most of the time (maybe some juhua, when that comes in in the autumn).

The MFH makes a lot of fond jokes about having a druid wife, and I laugh at them, but also here I am practically living outdoors, planting extensive amounts of herbs, trying to cozen frogs and snakes to live in my garden...

What's that word?

I finally finished my first playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3, and boy am I feeling things. I think I did a good job! I feel bad for a couple things I failed at, but everyone got a decent happy ending imo

That said, I'm feeling it. That feeling. I forget the word; you've just finished a stormy a wonderful story. It was so good, the characters were amazing, and I finished the final page, closed the book and...

It's sad, like a goodbye, but frantic. It can't be over?! Not yet! It's too soon! It was a beautiful story, I want to stay just a little longer! It's the drop, after the high of experiencing such an amazing story, and I can't remember the word for it! Not melancholy, or withdrawals, but close to it? Surely there's a word for it? I want to stay just a little longer, with these friends you've made, even if they aren't real. They feel close to it. I want to stay.

And I can, of course. Another playthrough or two. I can get to know the characters even better, personalized their happy endings, find my ultimate happy ending, write it on my own if need be!

But... One day, you put the book down, and never open it again. That scares me. I'm glad I've learned, over the years, that when a story touches you this way, you carry it with you, long after the book turns to dust. But that feeling, as the credits roll, and you aren't quite satisfied, even though you can feel that the ending was right...

That's the good thing about books, I guess. You can always read it again. Every ending is a new beginning, no?

This game is definitely a work of art. I'm so thankful for the team that brought it to us! I think my life is better for it!

This is funny as hell and also here’s your weekly reminder than Dean Forrester is an oozing infected scab

There is something very fragile and sad about the fact that Eddie is chasing after the ghost of Shannon. The delusion of it all. The wistfulness. The cry for help.

For all intents and purposes he is “healed,” his spirit is lighter and he seems to be enjoying life a lot more this season. And yet, there’s this big question mark there. What if, what if, what if. What if he’d allowed Shannon to reconnect with Chris earlier. What if he hadn’t enlisted. What if he and Chris left with Shannon. What if she said yes to his proposal? What would their life look like? And he’s chasing after those feelings. He’s chasing after what could’ve been instead of embracing what could be because he still hasn’t dealt with her death or her place in his life. She rejected his proposal and then she died. Like, I can’t imagine what that’s like.

& this is why I don’t think this will be a case of a brain tumor or hallucinations because they’re memories (and I’m prepared to be wrong). Grief isn’t linear and you find triggers in the wildest places. He sees a chance to relive a feeling and create a future he thought he was supposed to have. It’s just so SAD.

feel like a fake fan of books because screens are more comfortable to read on than paper

Shout-out to everyone who survived a "fun" easter with the family

feel like I need to add a little intrigue, a little spice, a little danger to my life. I need to pick a vice.

this probably sounds exceptionally vain and exceptionally silly but one of my deepest silly fears is that I come across as an unclean person
