I relapsed and went back onto Twitter this week 😭 I’m so sorry Bsky, I couldn’t resist. I missed talking about the new One Piece chapters with my friends who didn’t migrate to Bsky lol It’s just not the same here for that community 😭😭

Word of the Day is ‘uhtcearu’ [ucht-kay-aru, with the 'ch' as in the Scottish ‘loch']:

Old English for ‘the sorrow before dawn', when you lie awake in the darkness and worries crowd your mind.

I ordered my brother a Christmas gift back in November and it finally arrived today. 😭😭

Anyway, in case you were wondering, the A24 film studio sells interesting gifts and merch lmfao

I got a new journal that has 365 pages so I can journal one page a day. One page is perfect to get back into regular journaling because anymore than that and I’ll feel pressured to write more and eventually stop entirely. 😅

I’ve got 7 full pages written already! Very proud of myself for that 🥰

It’s snowing while the sun is out! What would you even call that? When it rains with the sun out, we call it a sun shower, but what about snow? lol

A self portrait on film from my project, “Thank You For Loving Me.”

What I like about this shot is that you can’t quite tell if I’m pulling myself forward or holding on as if I’m being dragged back.

A pair of hands grip the green grass, clover, and garlic mustard vines as if trying to hold on tightly. The direction that the body is moving in just out of view of the camera and is obscured.

Morning.
Moomintroll wakes up in Moominland Midwinter, Tove Jansson.
As described, illustration, Moomintroll is up at the break of day looking perturbed. Furniture in the room has taken on animated shape.

Still riding that high of talking to my friend who called me unexpectedly to chat & catch up the other day. I miss her since we live so far away from each other now. SUCH a huge mood booster when I didn’t even realize I was feeling down. 🥰

J.R.R. Tolkien went so hard on his weird hobby that it became a defining moment in the literary history of the 20th century. May he be an inspiration to us all.

Happy Birthday, JRRT!

Happy New Year 🎊

A throwback to a shot from a New Year’s Eve when we still lived in South Carolina several years ago.

A hand holds out a burning sparkler firework outside in the night on New Year’s Eve. A car can be seen in the distance, faintly illuminated by the city street lights.

My husband and I were dozing off before midnight so we quickly logged in to ACNH to use the town square as a countdown so we didn’t fall asleep. 😂

Here’s a couple of favorites that I shot in 2024 for my ongoing photo series called,
“Thank You For Loving Me” -
a personal project that explores living with anxiety, PTSD, and the desire to keep living.

All images shot on 35mm film with my Pentax K1000.

A self portrait. Two hands form the shape shape of a butterfly, reaching up towards the sun through a pink, blooming rhododendron bush. Inspired by the One Piece character, Nico Robin. A landscape view of mountains and the Hudson Valley. A giant rain cloud can be seen over the valley, pouring rain in the distance. However, the rain clouds break up over the mountain, revealing the sunlight. Titled, Monster. A self portrait using my shadow. My shadow casts on the bottom part of a mossy tree trunk. My hands are raised over my head and my fingers are sprawled out. My shadow is distorted to show ambiguity - is it a bug with pincers? A deer with antlers? A woman dancing ballet? Inspired by the One Piece character Chopper. A view down a dirt path in a forest surrounded by a tunnel of trees. The beginning of the path is shrouded in shadow. However, as the path continues on, the sunlight breaks through the trees in a golden glow, illuminating the way in the golden hour light.

New song available on Patreon at the $5 tier. It's called I Want To Live. Named for the greatest line ever written in human literature.
www.patreon.com/posts/i-want...
Your forever sleep Is interrupted by a lengthy dream that is still too brief. The dream is mostly pain. It is the self investigating whether it's truly sane. I've thought about the oceanic redeemed, But the water's darker than it first seemed. Everything that is lies in the heart of magnificent, terrible dreams. I want to live. I want to build. I want to give. I want to form the little seams that make up Other people's dreams and you must Let passion quell The constant beckoning from Hell. Let dreams of others cure your sight. I want to stay. I want to fight. I want to live. No decisions made. If there is fate then it is lenient with how it's really played. Time has gentle touch. You can remember what it felt like when it all seems too much There is nothing that will tether you here. The purpose of the dream is not very clear. And when I learned of this purposelessness I felt sure there was nothing to fear.

The amateur poster panics and rushes to clarify his original post when the replies begin misconstruing it. Whereas the veteran does nothing because he is already working on his next post. His enemies are forever arguing with the wind

Me anytime someone says the words “one piece” together in literally any context:
#onepiece
SpongeBob’s hand pointing at himself on screen in a video in the Krusty Krab. The top of his head can be seen through the kitchen window. His work uniform hat has been relaxed by Luffy’s Straw Hat from One Piece.

Black and white photo of a woman in a checkered dress, seen from behind as she leans out an open window. On her bent over back is perched a shorthaired black cat that looks like it might be in the process of jumping down.

One of my childhood favs ever. My best friend got a free copy from her teacher and we would read it at home over and over again together for hours 🥰

A foggy view of the field nearby.

It’s been perfect weather to curl up with a soft blanket and a good book.

A foggy view of a snowy field. A large bare tree is just down the hill of the field with small evergreen trees lined along in a row. The shadowy figures of tall bare trees can be seen faintly through the fog along the tree line of the field in the distance.

I always feel a bit melancholy around the new year. It’s likely that “post-holiday blues” but I feel a profound sadness plus a deep desire to create something or start something new while feeling like I don’t have enough time. 😅
