I am being so smart and not doing leg day right before a convention so I’m not suffering like I did at Katsu last year.
It totally has nothing to do with me hating leg day. Nope. Nada.

I don’t know who my mother thinks her daughter is but why it might be “someone going out after 8pm on a Tuesday” is beyond me.

Okay now the joke's on me because I've spent the afternoon listening to this artist's released songs and I'm lowkey obsessed? And definitely getting the one in the video once it's released next week.
Absolutely DYING at how the internet served me up this video/song snippet that basically describes one of my TTRPG characters right now 🤣 Good job for once, algorithm.

Bellara's appearance is based on that concept art from The Art Of Dragon Age The Veilguard ♥
I love to imagine her wearing that outfit/styling her hair like this once she becomes a Grey Warden and travels with Kieran 🥹

josephine montilyet as the nine of pentacles - 2/3 of my postcards for @dragonageannual.art 💛🍇✨ #dragonage #josephinemontilyet #dragonageannual
![painted tarot card of lady josephine montilyet, in a fancy dress version of her original inquisition outfit, hair down and tumbling past her shoulders. she is standing poised and smiling, one hand wearing a hawker's glove and lifted up so that a messenger raven can perch on it with a small message in its beak. the other is lowered to cup a bundle of grapes. she is stood surrounded by the grapes of her family's vineyard, the montilyet estate far in the distance behind her. a circle of flowery golden detail frames her head, similar to her in-game tarot card, and the sky is gold with golden clouds.

I haven't really cosplayed on Sunday of Katsu much but last night, it occurred to me that maybe I could toss my Yuki from 13 Sentinels into my bag because it's pretty comfy and not a big cosplay lift? On the other hand, I'm not sure if anyone would recognize it or not.

I am staring down my favorite local ice cream place, willing them to release their Lunar New Year flavors already so that I may have a tiny bit of frozen joy in my life.

My sewing room is finally clean for the first time in like two months and my brain doesn't know what to do all the empty floor space.

They're once again cooking wild boar on a Hell's Kitchen episode and all I have in my head is Felix Hugo Fraldarius talking about how for years he and the boar prince were inseparable.
Me: I can pretend to be normal.
Hell's Kitchen: *contestants talk repeatedly about boar because it's the focus of a challenge*
Me: I absolutely cannot pretend to be normal.

Does this fur cloak look good? No.
Is it done? Yes.
Will it work for the convention next weekend? Possibly. I'll probably get pissed off about its very existence.

Narrator: She did, in fact, keep finding ways to avoid working on the stupid fur cloak even though the convention is in less than a week.
oh no I just realized that being done with Petra means I can finally no longer avoid making the stupid fur cloak for Artemis

I love and respect the people who design characters and outfits in video games so much but as a cosplayer, I sometimes want to take their faces between my hands and yell "WHYYYYYYY" about some of the design elements.

I thought the state of my sewing room/office floor was bad before thanks to working with fabrics that love to fray but now it's been upgraded to dire thanks to this faux fur.

Home ownership has basically been a painfully humbling experience because I hate having to ask for help and have essentially spent the last 8 months having to ask for help because I don't know nearly enough home-fixing things. 💀

Not me looking at my used and planned PTO for the last two years and realizing that the majority of it has been used on *checks notes* recovering from burnout and my grandmother almost and then actually dying 💀🙃

I'm never going to get a better work email than the one I just got from my coworker with the subject line "Meow" and then the contents are nothing but three pictures of the new kitten she just "accidentally" adopted.

I don’t need more pins but also this one from @dualwieldstudio.bsky.social was perfect.

One of the reasons I so greatly dislike the “can men and women be friends?” nonsense (yes, full stop, shut up) is that it casts suspicion on people with opposite-sex friends instead of where it more often belongs: on people with no opposite-sex friends.
Anyway, yeah. The overwhelming impression one gets from so many of these emails is that a lot of them are guys who have never had a real, serious friendship with a woman in their lives.
Which sucks for them, but also sucks for every woman who has to deal with them, ever.

Trying to convince myself that today's color refresh hair appointment will fix me and lower my constantly spiking anxiety lately but I have a feeling such dreams are in vain.
