General li'l update

So, things have done anything but slow down for me in the real world. To keep it as vague as possible, there's a chance I'll be losing my job within the next month or so, though we're all currently working on possible solutions to this. Hoping for the best.

I've already done my panicking and preemptive grieving. 18 years in a single career is a hell of a run for someone my age, and if it has to come to an end then I've made at least some peace with that idea.

Still though, working every day to find solutions. To fix things. To keep surviving. It's exhausting, I will not lie. We're doing what we can over here.

There's so, so much good to look forward to this year. These are just bumpy patches of road. And some of the bumpiest roads I've driven on have taken me to the best places I've ever been. I'll be alright. I know I'll be alright. I'll be more than alright, by the time this is all said and done.

Been doing more reading of late, which I've been loving. You all are putting out such amazing work and I love bouncing in to read even if it takes me 3 attempts and a couple of hours to get through a posted chapter. Lovely escapes, all around.

My sister turned me onto a game ("game" kind of seems like an odd word for it but either way) on steam called Spirit City: Lofi Sessions. You customize a character, you have a little room, it plays lofi music at you and you can poke at a few playlists, build soundscapes around it (rain noises, thunder, wind, birds chirping, crackling fire etc etc) while your character mills about in spots doing things as just a beautiful little vibe-generator. You can collect spirit pals to vibe with you. It's just really cozy and nice, I love it. Highly recommend.

It has an optioning for in-app journaling, and I've been meaning to get back into journaling regularly just for the sake of my memory and everything else. That's been a huge boon over the last 2-3 days. It's got a productivity timer, to-do list, daily task/habits tracker.

Anyway, I've been making progress on writing but it's slow, staggered. Hit a bit of a wall last night with some of The Stranding where I wrote 8.5 pages of a scene and then just felt... unhappy with it. I had clearly lost the thread of why I started writing it, and needed to walk away to see if a fresher mind could find a place to rewind to and pivot so I can salvage it, or if I'm just gonna carve the whole thing out and set it in the Cut Scenes doc. The other 20 pages I've got waiting? Fine. Good, even. Proud of those. This one, I'm proud of what I'm writing but again... just feels more like floating aimlessly and bouncing. It was clear I wrote it while heavily distracted or with gaps between focus, so it jumps.

I'll see what I can salvage. Can't promise an update and am avoiding making it feel like I'm 'back on schedule' just to find something I can reduce pressure from in my life for the time being. But: I love you all. The Kudos, the views, the comments, the everything. It means a lot. You're all great.

If I do any generic vent/vibe writing, not necessarily attached to anything, I'll consider sharing it here for y'all. You guys deserve a bit of fun and sunshine <3

Have a great time everyone, love y'all to bits <3

Imodna has just straight up given me Critical Role Brainrot again (I mean. It’s never really stopped but the obsession has kicked in and it’s been a lonely two weeks in between episodes)

So here. Have my phone Home Screen until I finish my Spotify Imodna folder.

Zoom in for the fun stuff. It’s all CR art I’ve loved and cherished from the amazing fan artists over the years, and all credit goes to each of them naturally~

We had a family of four chanting "BEANS BEANS THE MAGICAL FRUIT" after their smallest in the stroller heard me tell Hek she is a magical bean

Hermittober Day 15 - Farm

[wanderestless]

spent some time at a client's custom-built neo midcentury modern house a week or two ago and we wound up talking about architecture/interior design preferences. what i think is interesting is how many people #onhere are huge fans of older styles or a really rustic look compared to all my clients, without exception, being very into modern beige minimalism. obviously there are tons of people in normal tax brackets who also love instagram beige nothingness but i have a little theory that really rich people are bored by oxbridge-classical-english manor and rustic summer cottages because they own all of it already. which is of course infuriating

A Bullet Is Waiting (1954)

"I hope you don't think that I'm taking your side against Mr. Munson. All those nice things that you did, like taking care of the lamb and getting supper ready, I saw through them easily. You're probably everything that Mr. Munson says you are."

"Oh, I'm a very bad character."

Started a new file on stardew and I forgot how much work I gotta put in during my first year to make myself and the farm look semi functional

Doesn't help that I picked the Beach farm so the layout is completely different from what I'm used to. I'll be trying to clear stuff out and lose track of where I am and go

WHERE THE HELL AM I???

Why the hell are 3/7 headlines about the king when they’re talking about him anyway
