I've been working 2 full time jobs and freelancing for the past few months, and I just paid off the actual vacation I am taking with my kids in December. I've never been able to do that before. I may be exhausted, but fuck I miss them and we deserve it.

Going to get a new piercing (or 3) today and I don't know what they are going to be. It's "Dealers Choice" for my face/ears and I am SO freaking excited to see what they pick for me!

One more convention, 4 more events, and 3 collaborations left for the year and then I’m taking a bit of time off for my kids vacation at Christmas, and I may or may not have already started packing my suitcase.
Also changing my hair tonight pretty drastically, so, wish me luck I can do it! 😂

I’m 98% cheering for the M’s in the series, but my grandpa would be pretty sad knowing I was cheering against the team he played for (in Brooklyn), so here’s three cheers for the Dodgers too 🎉🎉🎉
I miss you, you grumpy old man. 🫶🏻

Hi pals! Welcome to my monthly(ish) update.
One month into my community manager role, and I’m having a blast being back in gaming. And even though it’s contract, I don’t plan on stopping anytime soon. I missed my players, community, and video games in general more than I realized.
