Got caught in the rain after the dentist. Ran into nearest cafe.

It’s awesome.

Article written. It was rather nice to put my writing hat on, even for 600 words.

Coffee Bitch and I agreed we don't want physical Christmas presents, so we are off to Whitby again in January for our joint gift to ourselves.

I'm physically struggling today, but I'm also giving myself some grace.
Morning Skyfolk. Today I've an article to write up, a new vinyl to play, and some actual time out from the harpies of the world.

May you all find something today that shines.

Sod it, I've decided to do this winter as a small round Stevie Nicks impersonator, and have raided the savings for velvets, lace blouses, soft fabrics and flowing garments with lots of scarves. The woman is an icon. I wanna be a little bit icon.

Tactile pretty for the win.

Anyhow, I’m wearing a dress with one of my favourite Disturbia prints, and Coffee Bitch is taking me for a new velvet jacket later (penance for eating my bun).

So there’s that.

Thanks guys, you are all lovely 😻

Morning Skyfolk. Head therapy morning. I kinda need it it. It's taken me a while to identify that what I'm feeling is absolute misery. I've been dragged into a pit of it overseen by a manipulative emotional vampire, and I'm just miserable and don't know how to move forward.

Sorry guys 😕

Skid Vicious and Gritallica for the win.
Just saw the list of gritter names for this year and they have outdone themselves
These always make me smile

My husband refused anything from a bakery run this morning & I had a cinnamon bun for when I came back from attending my sick mother, and I come back and he’s eaten it despite me asking him not to and now I can’t stand him and am just a bit overwrought bc everything is crap and I just wanted my bun.

There are few pluses to being disabled, but front row accessible seats to Deep Purple are one of them.

Attempted to give a casual acquaintance a compliment. Ended up looking like a weirdo. Will now have to hide any time I see them even vaguely in the distance.

We interrupt our planned hiatus to announce we’d forgotten how dreadful the public art is in the town of our birth, Gateshead. And that they could have done anything when they redeveloped the town centre and they choose THIS…

Newsfeeds are very shrill (with reason). I’m not in a place to deal with the overwhelming bleakness of it all right now, so going to take time out for a few days.

Take care, here’s Jack.

Today is weird.

But I’m ok.

That emotional wobble I had a week ago is back. I have to do something I really don't want to do, which has many thorns and abrasions, bc after asking myself many questions, not doing it is marginally the worst option in the circumstances.

I have developmental PTSD. I have to step back into it.

Blimey #SCD I’m not sure I’m ready for this version of Nikita Hot Pants Kuzman… 🔥🔥

At age 15, I thought Patricia Morrison was the coolest woman on the planet. And her baselines make this album which I used to listen to on my cassette walkman under the covers.

Now I have it on vinyl and it still sounds magnificent.
+++ Hey now! On this day, the 15th of November 1987 (a Sunday) at midnight, The Sisters Of Mercy, released their second studio album, 'Floodland'. +++

It was originally set for release on Friday the 13th, but that was just too g*ff for Von.

Just sent Coffee Bitch out in the howling rain for more wine for #TOTP whoop!

It’s really cosy in our front room and I’m really content 😌

Really enjoyed Del Toro’s Frankenstein, though many liberties were taken!

Now watching Tim Curry’s IT. Really good but blimey it is so early 90s visually.

Morning Skyfolk. I'm a bit downbeat today. Physio this morning. I was trialling excessive vitamin B2 for migraine, which I could tell was helping me sleep better, but as soon as I titrated up, I was hit with a huge allergic reaction. So, back to sleeping with violence 😔

Very much toying with watching the whole of Supernatural again bc I just ain't clicking with anything else, including stuff like Interview with the Vampire, Mayfair Witches etc, and given Netflix cancels everything, anything fantasy based on there (Half Bad was fantastic you sods).
