Y'all. My reviews solution on my website just discontinued support, and didn't bother to send an email to me about it.

I lost hundreds of reviews... and I found out from googling their blog that there's no way to download an archive when trying to figure out why my reviews page wasn't working.

Woke up with legit migraine.

Piercing pain, aura, can't make my eyes focus for long, vicious nausea.

Sometimes I'll use my forward facing camera with camera/video recording app open as a faux body double when I need that to get something desk-related done.

Phone took this photo while I was doing that today.

It's interesting, how different I feel in photos when not performing a persona for it.

Alright.

Got to mark four different Motion projects complete.

I am ONE TASK away from on schedule and I just threw my hair in a ponytail to go get that one done.

TRUST MY SYSTEMS TRUST MY SYSTEMS.

Sneak peek at *some* of the latest shop update.

It's a big one.

Which Bebe Fountain Pen is your favorite?

I think he's used to impressing people and riding that.

FML lol.

If I'm going to attempt to predict the future and explain bizarre human behavior with complicated patterns pieced together obsessively over time, I'd rather it be learning Astrology instead of trying to get to know Yet Another Man.

Practice chorale music (less than two weeks to concert), edit images, eat handrolled chocolate truffles for dinner.

Obligatory Product Photography Session Selfie.

IYKYK.

Tell me I'm pretty and send (gluten-free) tacos.

The next two days are going to have me cross eyed from photography and editing.

On a scale of 1 to 10, where one is crying into a tub of ice cream from exhaustion and 10 is kicking ass and taking names...

I am whatever listening to this song on repeat to keep functioning is:

I have no idea why I woke up at 7am with my heart racing from adrenaline dumped in my blood stream, but I do know that, one, I didn't fall asleep until after 3am, and two, I am TIRED.

Thank goodness for The Ordinary's Squalane and Motion's project templates & scheduling.

Saving my skin *and* sanity today.

Just learnt about a new critter: Brazilian jewelled tarantula.
OMG

You know, taken as a whole, I am the good kind of terrifying.

I like that. I should really do more with this.
November 23, 2025 at 6:59 PM
I do not *need* a Brazilian Jeweled Tarantula as a pet, but I *really* want one.

Must focus on work, not new spider frens.

Someone is going to hate me for this, but I think I'm keeping this one for myself.

It's been years since I've kept one of my own pens.

He asked to see me again late Weds night - suggested Friday or Saturday. I said I'd be open to figuring it out. He said we'd try and figure it out tomorrow.

I texted early that morning that I could do Friday.

He texted about random stuff during the day. Gamed with friends that evening.

Look, if you want to see me, figure out the appropriate summoning ritual & tools, and then *summon me.*

I do realize it's telling on myself, naming my favorite material colorway Power, but you can't tell me the name doesn't fit. 😍
