Today was exhausting (unsuccessful blood center trip, Too Many People Everywhere, plus I hate every second I have to be outside when it's cold). But check out the Five Below & Aldi hauls!
I went to Five Below specifically looking for the Rick and Morty calendar, and yay, they had it! Many thanks to @thesoftboiledegg , who made me aware this existed. January (my birthday month), has one of the "Interdimensional Showdown" images, so for that alone, you *know* I needed this calendar.
The Pickle Rick ornament was an unexpected bonus find. 😁 I looked in so many stores for RaM ornaments last year, 'cause I know there's a few of them out there, but I never thought of checking Five Below. And yes, he cost $2 more than the big ornament box, but that's fine.
Speaking of which, that's for an idea I've had for a while - dressing up the Christmas tree for other holidays. I've said for like 3 years I could do a Valentine's Day tree if I just bought some pink ornaments, since I have a LOT of red ones & fair amount of white & silver. Ta-da!
I also don't think I've ever gone in the art supply aisle at Five Below before today - there were a lot of tempting things there. But I'm not sure about the quality, soooo I figured the glitter markers would be a good test. 🙂
Then it was onto Aldi for cheese. So much cheese. I swear I bought a few things that aren't cheese. But this was the main reason for the Aldi portion of today's outing, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise.
#rick and morty#merch#five below#yay season 7 merch!#rick and morty calendar#i'm so excited to put this up soon#don't get me wrong - i like my MHA calendar#but if we're being honest I didn't love the 2024 calendars i found for any of my shows#pickle rick#pickle rick christmas ornament#season 3 was seven years ago now#and he's still everywhere 😂#yay i also got sparkly things!#and cheese#so much cheese#this post summed up in a tl:dr:#today mostly sucked#but at least i got RaM stuff#sparkly things#and a pile of cheese

Okay so good news and bad news about the bitty I keep seeing at work,
The good news is I saw the little guy again when I was putting food down and I got very close this time!
He still looked kinda wary but he didn't run or anything so I thought maybe he was coming around to me. I also was putting down the food anyway so I figured I'd offer him some directly.
The bad news is I guess that wasn't the right idea...
I don't know if this was because he's not friendly or maybe he just got scared or something, but he took the food and bolted after he bit me. I hope I didn't scare him off trying that, I'll let you guys know if I see him again (and if I turn into a were-bitty lol)
#UTDR#UTMV#My Art#Horror bitty#Bitty Boys#There that can be the tag for these#Because I'm having a lot of fun with them lol#I'm also so happy people spotted the other lil guys in the last couple pictures :3c#They'll be coming up soon#What I love about this series is it gives me a reason to be excited about going to work#Like oo what pic can I take tonight to put a lil guy into :D#Also all the people who reply like they're professionals and have bitty experience I love you#Those are so cool to see and I love reading them

Premise: Seventy years after the events of Silver Snow, Byleth and Claude reunite on a farm in Almyra.
Rating: Teen and Up (old man angst; language; Tense Situations)
Chapters: 4 of 7 (6 with an epilogue)
Words: 16k (53k cumulative)
Chapter Summary: In the wake of an assassination attempt on his son, the King of Almyra, Khalid does his best to keep up morale and maintain an air of normalcy. But between fears of a potential attack on the farm and the unrelenting rains that threaten to cause disaster for the nearby village, he's got his work cut out for him.
That's not to mention all of the strange happenings surrounding the professor recently. It makes sense that people would start asking questions when memories conflict with reality, or when age-old afflictions suddenly abate. Although they aren't demanding them yet, they'll want answers soon, but how can Khalid tell them the truth when he doesn't know it himself?
The professor is changing, too, and as much as Khalid hates to admit it, he's growing afraid of who she's becoming—or whatever it is she's been this whole time.
#fe3h#fire emblem three houses#fire emblem#claude von riegan#byleth eisner#silver snow#happy birthday fire emblem three houses!! you are five!!! gosh they grow up so fast.#aaaand a big welcome back to the vickyvesties!!!!#i was stuck on this chapter for AGES but we finally got here#word of warning that this ends on a cliffhanger. i'm sorry for that. but chapter 5 should be along SOON#(in theory. i never know with me.)#i'm SO excited for where this story is going from here. it's taking everything in my power not to spoil it. i'm being so brave and strong.#shoutout to arrow44 who betaread this brick of a chapter#and also to everyone who's had to put up with me whining about it for MONTHS#also also: thanks to anybody who's commented on my fics recently.#i have not been replying as i would like. but i appreciate them so much. they really do keep me goin'#anywho i hope you enjoy this episode of Old Man Clod's Grief & Turmoil Extravaganza

#i know you guys are just asking bc you're excited and i'm honored that ppl want to read what i write!! and so so happy#but i just end up always answering i dont know#bc i really dont lol#i won't put anything out this week bc i'm really really busy with work but i will get back to writing as soon as i can!!#you're free to send requests or asks talking about my fics too! don't be shy#love you <3

more dumb anxiety today. is it weird if i email my tattoo artist and ask for a rough price estimate? is it weird that i didn't ask for a price estimate when i set up the appointment?
before i booked, i looked up a bunch of local tattoo artists and some of them write their hourly rate publicly, they seemed to range between $120-$200 an hour. i'm assuming my tattoo is gonna take like 3-4 hours? so i was picturing it being like $800 at most??? (i'm referring to CAD btw not USD)
am i like... way fucking off? a reptile youtuber i watch just happened to get a tattoo (this youtuber is also canadian and actually lives in a nearby city).. and he got a tattoo in the same spot, but 1/4 the size, at most. and he said he paid $950. so yeah now i have anxiety that i'm like WAY off in guesstimating the price of my tattoo
#the anxiety does not end#this is basically why i put off getting a tattoo for so long#yall i'm so fucking annoying#i haven't emailed the artist yet about bringing my bf to the appointment so i was thinking of emailing soon and asking both questions#i can't exist without my brain convincing me i'm the most annoying and dumbest person on earth#tattoo anxiety#again#i was excited again for like 4 days until i saw this youtubers video.. did i sign up for like a 2 grand tattoo or what

Makeup artist:.......... Are you nervous?
Baja: a little bit.... This isn't like in front of a studio audience right
Makeup artist: No sweetie, it's just a one-on-one interview.
Baja: that's good. Who are we interviewing?
Makeup artist: You're going to have to ask the show-runner, Mickey.
Mickey: let's go. Let's go. Let's go what takes so long putting powder on a face. He has perfect skin anyway. We had to get him to the dressing room. We start filming in a couple minutes
Makeup artist: I'm finished. Just need to map down some scales and he's...... All done. You're free to go sweetie
Baja: thank you
Mickey: So you must be then host of the show. Sorry I wasn't able to meet you sooner. I was on vacation. Oshi told me you're a really good candidate for this show. You seem to be competent you know your way around music....*sip* ..... Coffee?
Baja: I don't really drink that much coffee. I like tea though
Mickey: Green tea! *Snap*. .*snap*
Assistant: your green tea
Baja: thank you
Mickey: Well I know one thing for sure. She was right about the pretty face. Now as you get dressed head to the studio so we start filming promotional material Ramon should be there with you. After your interview which will count as the pilot
Tammy: Mickey listen I really think you should reconsider about not casting me for the show
Mickey: No....*sip*
Tammy: but I really think you should I mean I can at least be co-host. I'm great to be around! Tell him, baba
Baja: it's Baja
Mickey: No, we need to bring up the sea slug viewership
Tammy: I can be the second co-host
Mickey:....*sigh*...... Tammy listen to me. You didn't get the job all right. You just don't fit the criteria we need for this show and this channel. But hey you have other opportunities for other networks alright. You're pretty, you're bubbly and you have a nice rack. You can get a job anywhere with those qualities around here.... You're just not going to find it at this station
Tammy: but-
Mickey: goooooood byyyyyyyyyyyyyeeee Tammy!!
Security guard: Right this way ma'am
Tammy: Mickey!!! I'll have your fucking job!!
Mickey: we'll see you next week Tammy we're filming the season finale
Baja: she seemed pretty upset
Mickey: eh she'll get over it ... She's been in a couple of shows here and there on the network. She plays Kate the baby sitter on 'dock and dingy' ......*sip* ..... She'll be fine. Here Is your dressing room your clothes should be folded
Baja: alright... and I just head to set after
Mickey: yep your's and Ramon's chairs will be the brown arm chairs. The musician or celebrity will be sitting on the loveseat and will perform on the stage behind you
Baja: they're going to perform?
Mickey: yeah.. yeah they're starting their Solo career
_______________________________________________
Ramon: hey... You look good. They spruced up your wardrobe too
Baja: yeah. I wonder if we're able to take this home with us
Ramon: probably. I think it'd be easier just to keep in our dressing rooms for now. Keep our work clothes separate from our regular clothes. Feels like bad energy to mix them together.
Baja: how so?
Ramon: I mean this nice brand name stuff fancy designs, colors and a hefty price on it. It's nice but it isn't really me. It's what the studio and the producers want me to be and I rather keep that at work when. I go home I wear my regular off-brand jeans, my 8-year-old sweater and a pair of kicks with a hole in it. That's me. That's who I am. A regular person, I'm not above anyone and I don't want to feel like I am. Get what I'm saying
Baja: yeah... I get it. You don't want the job to change you
Ramon: exactly
Mickey: All right! Hitch you got the shot?
Hitch: Yeah I got it. We can use this for commercials
Baja: you were filming?
Mickey: Yeah yeah no worries. We just wanted to film you guys interacting. We didn't tell you cuz we wanted to look natural.
Hitch: we didn't have any mics on so we couldn't hear what you were saying so don't worry about it. I'm the director by the way names Hitch. Nice to meet you..
Baja: hello
Ramon: hey
Mickey: alright so we're going to start filming the show in 30 minutes. Kikura is their dressing room.
Ramon: Kikura from C-side?
Mickey: yeah
Kikura: sorry I'm late.. I tend to procrastinate when I'm getting ready for these types of things...... Not a good excuse but... yeah
Mick: Well that's perfectly fine. We'll be filming in a couple minutes this is Ramon and this is Baja. They're going to be the ones interviewing you
Kikura: hey
Hitch: while we wait for that, let's do some more advertisements
______________________________________________
Assistant: alright..... Advertisement 2 take one...[clap]

Cirrina: .......this must be the address..........(Knock knock)
Bayou: Cirrina! You showed up!
Cirrina: yeah....hehehe sorry if I'm a little early ...
Bayou: no worries. Come in, come in you can use your shoes on the shelf right here. So what do you want to know about krillarney?
Cirrina: I'm just you know the origins and the history of krillarney...... You lived on the surface for most of your life, right? Is that true for most octolings here?
Bayou: yeah... Most of us here spent their whole lives on the surface though there are some who moved here who previously lived underground
Cirrina: Interesting......so... And did your family move here?
Bayou:...... I think you might get more information from my nan.... Nana!!....... You remember my Nana. from church?
Nana: yes!? Bayou? What is it love?.....oh... Dear the little girl from church. Nice to see you again sweetie
Cirrina: hello..
Bayou: Nan do you mind if she asks you a few questions?
Nana: I have no problems sweetie
Cirrina: It's just a couple questions .. . I'm doing a five-page essay on octarian history in other countries
Nana: wasn't that nice? Well what do you want to know dear?
Cirrina: uhhhh .... When did you move here
Nana: oh I have no idea sweetie It's been years...... The war started when I was around......10 of 11 years old. I lived with my two sisters in a small village My mother was a School teacher and my father passed away years ago.
Cirrina: *writing*
Nana at the time my village was not affected by the high tides but it was targeted with conflict over land and resources. Next thing you know, I was being drafted for the war along with my two sisters. They just turned 13. They never held a weapon before. My mother couldn't even imagine them going to war, it was only after the first bomb we decided to leave. We had to leave quickly so we weren't able to bring a lot. All we had to pack was whatever we could fit in our backpacks. I packed two dresses, pair of pants, three shirts and one skirt. I also packed my Adva doll she's the only toy I played with for years.
Cirrina: *writing*
Nana: My mother was good friends with a man who moved to our village before the war happened. He was a nice inkling man Mr. Doal he offered to help us leave. His son got drafted and passed away early in the midst of combat. He told us about a developing sovereign country called krillarney that was currently taking in anyone and everyone across the world who wanted to get away from the war
Cirrina: *write*..... So how did you get to krillarney
Nana: we were informed that there were fairies and ships offering to help people leave. We set our trip in the middle of the night and met up with Mr. Dole and other people who wanted to leave as well. The walk was 3 hours straight. No brakes, no rest until we made it to the coast and we got onto a ship. It was a squid beak ship if I remember, The S. S. Escargot. We sailed for a week to krillarney making several stops picking others in similar situations.
Cirrina: was it just inkfish who were escaping?
Nana: oh no there were so many people from so many walks of life on the ship. Urchins, fish, cephalopods, Crustaceans. So many were affected by this war. I remember seeing some still wearing their military uniforms. It was their only chance to leave and they took it
Cirrina: when you got to krillarney what was it like? Was different from how it is today.
Nana: Well I can tell you one thing we didn't have these malls, outlets or a nice studio apartment like I have now hehehe. .... When I first got here My mother could only afford a nice small house with two bedrooms. Our neighbor was young octoling and his wife was a bass. They were enlisted in the military for years. When the war started they were completely against it. They were planning on having kids at the time they couldn't do that if they were at war. Unfortunately they weren't able to have kids but they watched me and my sister so many times that they kind of saw us as their kids hehehe
Cirrina: *writing*...... Do you ever think about your old village? What happened to it?
Nana:............. Well....um..... Like I said at the time the high tides didn't affect my home but.............. Soon enough it was............. Everything was wiped out and everyone......... From what I know now....... The water levels have subsided and it is inhabitable but............ I just never went back. Everything I know about that place is gone. My home my toys.....some of my old friends
Cirrina:.... I'm sorry.......
Nana: it's alright love
Cirrina: ....... I think I asked enough questions
Nana: are you sure? I could tell you more
Cirrina: oh that's ok really.... I have enough to write my paper. I have to get home to do my chores
Bayou: alright..... Do you want me to walk you to the fairy dock?
Cirrina: (blush).... well........ok...
Bayou: great..... I'll be right back Nana
Nana: Come back safe
Cirrina:..........................
Bayou:...........................
Cirrina:..................
Bayou:..............you know we have tons of historical sites here if you ever want to check them out..... Add some photos for extra credit
Cirrina: that would be nice but I really need to get home
Bayou: we don't have to do it today.
Cirrina: I leave at the end of the week
Bayou: Well you can plan something for this week maybe Tomorrow maybe?....
Cirrina: I can see.... Yeah I think tomorrow would be good yeah..
Bayou: All right so why don't we meet up here again at 2:00 and I can take you to the lighthouse, The bridge of new beginnings and I can even take you to the museum
Cirrina: Great! It's a date! I mean....uh... No! It's not a date..... it's a day out....an outing yeah it's it's it's an outing we're going out......for the day! We're going out for the day

Assistant director: 'music at midnight'.... Introduction take three!.....(CLAP)
Hitch:go!
Baja: welcome, welcome! Welcome my name is Baja! And this is my co-host Ramon
Ramon: hey!
Baja: I'm very excited to say that this is the first episode of our very new show called 'music at midnight'. What is music at midnight? Well as the names in the title says we're going to be talking about music and it's going to be airing during midnight.
Roman: yep so while we sit here and talk and do interviews. You're going to be sitting on your couch or in your bed and your nice warm jammies.....
Baja: I wish we could wear pajamas
Ramon: Right? We should ask the exacts for a pajama day
Baja: hahahaha...(CLAP)..... All right, let's get started.... Today's music news....... But before we do that, who's who's with us today
Ramon: today we have Kikura sitting in our guest seat
Kikura: hey everyone
Baja: so we Kikura here today and there the guitarist for the band c-side and she's a part of another group riot act.....now Kikura is it true that riot act actually came before the band C-side?
Kikura: uh....oh my cod.......uh wow..... Yeah actually that is true. It did come before C-side... Technically yes but at the time it was not called riot act.... It was actually called 'no boys allowed' uhhehe.... We were in high school that was our original band.... We were in an all-girls school. We were just a couple of weird kids just screwing around... We were all in theater together and we used to hang out under the bleachers and I don't remember who mentioned it but one of us said "wouldn't be funny if we started a band and we had no idea how to play the instruments"....and heh That's how it really started
Baja: it started out as a bit?
Kikura: Yeah it started out as a bit. We started to borrow instruments from The music room and we started to play, used to write music together like we had our own group chat and everything ... It started to get serious during second year of school. It started out as a joke and then just kind of started to really get into it and we really just stopped seeing it as a joke and started seeing it as more of a hobby and soon after we started to book gigs, shows and sets in people's basements. It just kind of took off after that.
Ramon: so what made you join C-side?
Kikura: so C-side started after I met Beika it was a small underground club. He recognized me from my band and he was really excited to see me! He told me that he was a bass player and his old roommate was a drummer and they needed a guitar player. He had a couple songs that he's written and he wanted my opinion on it. He wanted to see if I was able to do a demo track for him.
Baja: *nods*
Kikura: a couple weeks of talking I went to the studio and I met Uotora... He's such a sweetheart oh my cod.... We did rewrites and we wrote some more music. We did some test tracks and 5 hours later I was officially a part of the band...
Baja: what was your first concert like.... You played in sesame hall as the opener for wet floor
Kikura: I was surprisingly calm during the whole show. Really thought I was going to panic and freeze up because this is the first actual concert like a concert concert like it wasn't just a group of people hehehe in a backyard. I remember the crowd wasn't that enthusiastic when we came up but after playing 'click bate' people really just started to really get into it and we just formed a fan base after that.
Ramon: are you still a part of that band? After you released your new album with riot act
Kikura: oh yeah definitely. I'm still a part of the band I'm not going anywhere. This ain't that kind of band. Do we treat each other with respect...hehehe...hm... But no this is just a side project. We all just started talking again and it's just a passion project we're just doing really
Baja: and speaking of passion projects, let's get to the news....Nami one of the members of beloved yet controversial bands front roe has enough that branching off and starting a solo career. Today on Inkstagram she announced that she's working on a new album and writing her own songs she even took a selfie of herself in the studio showing in the recording booth.
Ramon: I think nami's very underrated in the band. It's good to see she's getting out there
Kikura: I'm so happy that she is. I only met her two times. It was during the black square music festival and the seashore awards she is so nice, she's so kind and so pretty. We were talking and I brought up keeping my music in a notebook and she did the same thing too. She has several notebooks of music that she really wants to make but it doesn't really fit the sound of 'squid squad'..... Well I guess it's front roe now but she's kept those book for years... I truly hope she's putting those to good use
Baja: You know this actually isn't her first solo work. She worked on a soundtrack for 'high-rise falling 4'. It was a video game for the gamer boy x system.
Kikura: really?
Raman: Yeah I know that she composed background music for the menu and she also made The third boss Battle song. Man If they ever make the movie of high-rise falling
Baja: they are never going to make that movie.... It's always in production hell for years now
Kikura: I've only played the second and third game in that series, but I heard the movie is going to be starting off with The fifth installment and going backwards which doesn't make any sense
Hitch: what is high-rise falling? I don't know what that is. What are they talking about?
Oshi: It's just a game that these kids play. The audience will know what they're talking about
Ramon: they should bring her back for the movie. It would be really cool if she remixed her original tracks. I love that for him. I'm happy that she's making music. I'm really excited..... What else we have for the news
Baja: SashiMori are no longer doing fall tours or winter tours like they used to
Raman: oh?
Baja: So one of the members, Paul. He's no longer able to travel because he has school so they're going to have to do summer tours
Ramon: that makes sense.... I remember their last tour was during fall during spook fest. Everyone dressed up in costumes and during their last set, people were giving out candy.... Folks was handed a bucket before they got into the arena. it was good candy too like people were getting full size candy bars..... What type of candy do you like? I like gum.... You could never go wrong with gum..... Good flavor, good texture... And you can blow bubbles with it. What about you?
Baja: I enjoy chocolate... I love a good piece of chocolate..... Especially if it has a filling in it like marshmallow or something.....Kikura?
Kikura: I would say I'm a hard candy type of person.... I enjoy jawbreakers
Baja: really
Kikura: Yes, it lasts longer than most candies and..... Besides lollipops It is the only candy that is socially acceptable to take out of your mouth
Hitch: do we have any chocolate sponsors?
Oshi: no but I can get with the marketing team and see what we can do
[one hour of banter later]
Baja: Well folks that's our show! Thank you for being here for our first ever episode. The riot act album will be released on the 22 so make sure you check your local stores for it....now enjoy one of their debut songs 'No planned survivors'
[riot act performing in the back ground]
Mickey: what are the viewerships right now?
Assistant: Right now the viewerships are sitting at 89.4 million...and online..... only 20k views... But that number might rise in the next week
Mickey: [inhale].....[exhale]...... What do you estimate the viewership for ink lab plus?
Assistant: Well..... Judging from the viewership on TV and the viewership on the app we might be able to gain..................... 100 million first episode maybe even more...
Executive: I don't understand it! they talked about video games and then candy, went on a tangent about handbags and backpacks. How is this popular?! This is supposed to be about music and celebrities.
Oshi: Kids today aren't really all that interested in celebrities showing off their fancy cars, expensive clothes and lifestyle. They're bored at that and so are the newer artists. They just want to know who they are as a person....if knowing about their favorite candy and opinions on games keeps them engaged and interested in their music and our show I see no problem with it
Mickey: hmmmm.....
Hitch: I think we might need a meeting for this. I have an idea
Oshi: what's the idea
Hitch: we haven't had that much traction on the app for a while. instead of making a recorded video the next time we film we do a live stream and have the audience involved with the conversation
Mickey: I like that. Keeps the audience engaged and keeps the viewerships high. it saves money on editing
Hitch:......... These kids are going to make us a lot of money

I'm not sure if it's too early to mention it...but have any of you heard of Sheezy?
(Not the early 2000s site, but the revival project from 2020-2022)
#Becaaause it's coming back soon~#and yours truly is going to be a moderator on it heehee!#It might be a bit early to mention it because it's still being built/currently in a supporter-only beta while it's being put back together#but if you had an account in the 2020-2022 revival project youll be able to return to your account in a few weeks when the beta opens up to#all returning users!#and then after that registration for the site will open in chunks#For those who don't know! Sheezy is an art community site!#I was on it in 2021-2022 for a few months before it shut down and it was genuinely one of the most pleasant experiences ive had as an onlin#artist#The focus isn't numbers so much as community and discovering new people#and I'm honored to be a part of bringing it back now that the team has a proper foundation and time to dedicate to our little project C:#exli speaks#Im just so excited for it!#It isnt perfect and we're fleshing things out as we go and the website will improve exponentially over time#but AAHH#I might link the subcription page in the comments if people are interested ($3 gets you into the supporter beta while the website is built#and the bugs these supporters discover are fixed for the official launch)#but honestly it might be more exciting to join for the official launch too...

update from the party down agere writingverse btw: i have chosen to fully lean into the "henry was a dinosaur kid and that interest is a prevalent part of his regression too" headcanon because it keeps slipping into my writing anyway lmao
#in speaking of party down posting!#hopefully there will be a fic soon. fics plural if i'm lucky#but yeah i need his ass to get SO EXCITED over them. i need him to make ron and casey put on jurassic park eight hundred million times#they will get so sick of that movie but it's worth it to see henry's eyes light up when the t-rex comes onscreen#even if he cheers so loudly at it that it disturbs the neighbors ghklsadfjklds#ohhhh he's so cute. i love writing this baby#party down#agere#marshy speaks

I have two month old kittens. They are young, innocent, and malleable. What fun stuff do I start these babies on so it's normalized for them as they grow up? *tents fingers*
I know multiple of these will be beneficial, but for the sake of this poll...
#reblog for sample size if you want#no pressure tho#this is mostly just for goofs and giggles#I've never had cats this young so I'm kinda excited for trying to raise them in ways I haven't been able to with other cats#they're already being acclimated to being held handled and checked over a fair bit#while respecting their boundaries too#working theory is that cats will be more chill with what you're doing if they know you'll let go of them when they ask#so they get picked up and held and then put back down soon as they wiggle#paws get played with and massaged and left alone when they pull away#that kind of thing you know?#I love them a lot#it's gonna kill me having to give some of them away

I've got a couple of days left in September when I want to squeeze in some time to finish a couple of books I was reading this month, and Inklings Challenge starts in a couple of days, so of course this was the perfect time to get obsessed with Victober and download a bunch of obscure Victorian books.
#i was in waiting-around situations today where youtube was a justifiable distraction#and unfortunately fell down a rabbit hole#i actually climbed out and threw together an october reading list i was pleased with#a couple of new things but also some things i was planning on reading anyway#some things to continue#some that need to go back to the library soon#almost all very short#i was stupidly proud of myself for coming up with a way to fill all five victober prompts with three books#including two i was planning to read anyway#but then i fell down the rabbit hole again#and downloaded a few more books#see the dangerous thing is that they're all free online#you can pick up books on a whim#and i have so very many whims#the idea is to have them available for future but be aware i likely won't read most of these#but of course now i'm excited for all of them#i need to put down the phone and go to bed and clear my head#but in good news i got the inklings teams posts formatted#i work the next two eves so i had to get it done now#and it's a good thing i was on the ball#because i always forget just how complicated that process is#everything in triplicate#this year all the software worked well thank goodness#no trouble with lost names or lopsided teams#it's just that there's a lot of sections of three different posts to pull together#so it's always more work than i'd expect#i'll still add names if people jump in btw#i just need to have the vast bulk of the work done in advamce

Really not feelin it this week. Tag rant incoming
#it's just been a slew of horrible things this week and idk how to handle any of it#we had to take my childhood cat to the vet on Monday bc she's very sick and very skinny#and we thought we'd have to put her down#I'm so thankful bc she still has a bit of time and really all I want is for her to be comfortable again before she dies#but shes in such bad shape#and I hate seeing her like that. I found her when she was just a few weeks old#and now she's 15 and she just got old out of nowhere#and I'm not gonna be able to see her anymore soon#I'm going to a funeral Saturday for one of my aunts#I wasn't close to her since I was a kid but my family more or less abandoned her#and now she's dead and I never went to see her when she was alone#and today my other aunt died. and I was close to her.#I haven't seen her in years either though bc of more family drama.#and I never visited her either. idek if she was alone or if she had people.#I should have visited her when we found out she was sick but I just didn't#idk what to do. it's all just piling up#I feel worse rn than I have in years#and more bad things just keep happening#I was excited this week bc I got some work done on my college application#but now my motivation is just gone#I just wanna sleep and wake up and find out that my aunt is actually alive and someone just got it wrong somehow#but I can't fall asleep and that won't happen so waking up won't even be worth that#I would call off work tomorrow but I don't wanna be alone and my coworkers are the only people I know in town#at least they're all nice people#this all sucks so fucking bad#personal#negative

OKAY. I have been doing some really good blocks of writing over the past few weeks--like several sessions with ~2000 words. Unfortunately, a lot of it has been skipping around on different fics (I'm trying to be better about unhealthy sleep habits, so I'm not writing in huge, hyperfixated chunks. Or trying not to 😬).
So, if you would like, feel free to poke, request, remind so it stays on my conscious mind! Do not feel obligated, this is only if you feel the urge, it will get done either way!
#I don't think i ever said on here but my ADHD meds that I was on weren't working and i have yet to start new ones#this is probably obvious 😁#but I'm trying to get better about pacing and external systems to help get things done#(cute timers for writing/replying sprints#and website timer limits on my phone and browsera#a comfy place to write in my room#AND hopefully a clickity clackity mechanical keyboard soon to encourage happy stimmy feelings)#the work is slow but I'm getting there and that's what matters!! I'm massively compartmentalizing and taking it slow#because the point of burnout is telling you what's not working so I'm trying to learn from it and work better with myself#so sorry to friends i haven't replied to im a while--I'm getting there!#you are important and your correspondence matters to me and i appreciate your patience as i work shit out#and i wish that the stories I'm SO excited to share with everyone weren't so slow to come out but sometimes you gotta do the slow work firs#(i rewrote that last sentence to make it not an apology because I'm trying to be better about feelings of guilt#and obligation that YOU LOVELY PEOPLE never put on me and only stems from myself#cause mentally beating myself up isn't gonna do shit because it never HAS. we're doing something new! as many times as it takes!#ANYWAY#my stuff
