Starting a new job the week before Pax Unplugged means I am so exhausted that the convention might seem calm and relaxing. 😅 I also have zero time for prep so there may be no cookies. It turns out that having a physical job makes you really tired and unable to do anything. Oops.

Selina Belle loves sleeping in the space between cushions. Washi tucked herself between the couch and my leg and started cleaning herself. She got sleepy, I guess, and left her ear like that. I’m obsessed with these weirdos.

Artoo used to bring his pom toys to bed, so we’d say “no poms in bed!” and throw it across the room, knowing he’d fetch it and bring it back to bed. I’ve missed those forbidden poms.
Last night Washi brought her sparkly orange pom to bed. (It’s her showgirl pom.)
My heart is so full.

I’m watching the basketball game on mute (usually preferred against UCONN, not gonna lie) and have the news on the second TV showing updates from the plane crash. Going outside is terrifying.

Sorry, I’m completely obsessed with these girls and so excited for their quarantine to end and for them to enjoy the upstairs life. They’re going to make a mess of everything, but they are so cute that I won’t be mad.

Barret the foster kitten is running around the living room playing with and carrying a yellow pom. Finkle is watching and singing a song of his people. I feel Artoo’s spirit in this moment.

I have to adjust my kitten cam iPad setup because Washi is obsessed with getting up there to watch it/knock it over. She is definitely the troublemaker of duo.

We have a foster kitten in the upstairs bathroom and these girls have taken over the basement. We found the pair we needed to adopt and I’m already in love. 🥹

Welcome to Louisville sports season where you’ll find me yelling into the void about them trying to not let us have empty reusable water bottles when it’s hot and I want to stay hydrated. 🎉

Taylor Swift and I have both had to watch the trainwreck that is Scott Satterfield so I feel deeply connected to her now.

Football season is upon us so I'm refreshing the hair color and preparing to turn myself into a human that goes out and does things rather than a goblin who stays indoors talking to a cat or visits other indoor places where cats exist. (I will continue to do that, too.)

Today I noticed a job posting that I really, really want and I’m incredibly qualified for it, too. I’ve submitted my stuff and now I just have to wait and brace myself for disappointment. 😅

Thank you to everyone who donated to my ko-fi post-GenCon. It helped pay myself back for some cookie ingredients, then I donated to the humane society in Artoo’s honor. I’m truly grateful for this community and how you always find a way to show up for people. 💜

We're looking to hire pixel artists for Super Boss Monster 2!
Earlier today I posted a recruiting form, but I made the mistake of cross-posting it to X, where it was instantly overwhelmed with spam replies. So here's revised form that I won't post over there!

The GenCon games haul! This always takes me forever because I want it to be cute. I didn’t include my trinkets and plushes and shirts, that’s another post once I can set that up in an appealing way. 😅
