What a stressful week. Had a catastrophic failure in my home studio on Thursday.
Bad news is I’ll have to reset and reconfigure my whole set up next week.
Good news is, I’ll be able to reset and reconfigure my whole set up next week.

Seems a little silly with how the world is right now, but some folks keep prodding me to try and do some streams again. It’s been a long while and admittedly, I haven’t wanted to do it because most of my free time goes to writing. But maybe that could be a thing that happens?

Tonight? Pizza and Ted Lasso. It’s time for a rewatch.

Note to self: next time, don’t wait months to type up 226 pages of notes and scenes. Try to do that weekly so you’re not spending 6 hours every day off trying to catch up.
Ouch.
But wow. I certainly have a project going! Woot! #writing

Internet has been down since early afternoon yesterday. A tech finally arrived and is working to find the problem. Book was not happy that a guy was in my room unsupervised. Now he’s taking a snooze from guard duty while the guy is outside.

“Drink up me heartys yo-ho.”
Reading is writing, I swear.
Oddly, getting more ideas for DnD hijinks than I expected. (How many I expected? None!)

Book is still (understandably) pissed off at me and the world after the vet yesterday and his first round of ear meds. I think he’ll be under the bed for the rest of the week. :(

Book may now be on more medication than I am at the moment. :( Ear infection plus a hematoma (the ear that’s flopped at the moment.) And he got a little spicy with the new vet. /mortified
And my bank account is hurting. He’s worth it though.

Happy Monday folks. I have two requests for you if you don’t mind.
1. Tell someone you’re proud of them today.
2. If you can spare a happy thought or good vibe for my boy Book, would you send it over? We’re going to the vet today and his ear is a mess. Aside from his shots I hope they’ll drain it.

Had to move my little Summer Solstice ritual inside since the wind was insane, but I got my little celebration done after work today.

The Guardian Bear, the Pretty Mage Lady, and The Shining Star Healer @halyonix.bsky.social met up for late birthday shenanigans with my big sis. Had a blast. Texas is still in one piece…mostly.

Had to wait a few days to see how the curl would come out, but I’m happy to say only a couple inches came off the length and I can go punk rock straight or just rock my curls. Haircuts are therapy sometimes.

Finally had a chance to sit out on the deck with some tea and write before work today.
Also had some amazing bed head when I woke up today. Woot.

Been trying to fix a terrible sleep schedule for years and after being on a cpap for awhile, I feel like I’m so darn close. My body is starting to go hey! I can wake myself up after several hours of good sleep!
Problem is, I refuse to let it because it’s 3 in the fucking morning.

Watching Brett Goldstein’s HBO comedy special. Talking about how Americans end phone calls as opposed to Brits, Brett has clearly never experienced the midwestern goodbye. :) It’s going to take more than 20 minutes say goodbye. lol He’d get off the phone and immediately start channeling Roy Kent.
