Just doesn't feel like the safe space ship everyone wants it to be anymore, does it.

Do I want to watch the hockey show? Yes.
Do I know anything about hockey? No.
Am I fearful it will take over my already full brain? Very yes.

Ended up going to maternity triage last night bc babygirl decided that new year's day was a great time to play a 12 hour round of sleeping lions and she is MAKING UP FOR IT TODAY by playing constant karate with my internal organs. Girl pls. Can we have some kind of consistency here.

Slightly hypothetical question: what do you do with a partially published fic that you're sadly slowly realising (accepting) you'll probably never finish? (life comes at u fast huh) leave what's there up? Chuck it in a private collection? Lay down and cry?

Listen I know the whole point of the glucose test is to stress test your body's reaction to sugar but fuck me that's one hell of a brutal sugar crash when it drops off 😭

Shout out to whoever made the glucose drink taste like burnt plastic with a hint of citrus 👍 makes it really easy to get down on an empty stomach 👍👍👍

I have my glucose tolerance test tomorrow morning (shout out to the crime of being fat and pregnant) and I have 2 choices: do I take my work laptop and do a bunch of planning for the new year, or do I take my Chromebook and attempt to write for the first time in forever

MIL showing concern the only way she knows how, by declaring that I look like I've lost weight, then despairing that I SHOULDN'T be losing weight in my ~condition~. Like girl idk what to tell you I'm eating like a horse and the baby appears to be growing appropriately????

A deliciously filthy snapshot of a sex scene just dropped fully formed into my head and now I'm just laying here on the sofa trying to figure out how I build the rest of the scene around it

Good morning merry Christmas if you celebrate, happy Thursday if you don't! Mr Em has decided to start the day by having the existential crisis of "this is our last Christmas where we won't be someone's parents" and now I am 🫠

Pining while fucking got canonised as a tag and I STILL haven't finished writing the 3rd chapter of old res 😭

ANDREW MCMAHON IS DEVELOPING A TV SERIES SET IN THE EARLY 00S BASED ON KONSTANTINE? oh my god.

I cannot emphasise enough how much of a deliberate choice it was for this to be a T rated fic, for the story to be purely about emotional connection.

There will always be naysayers to non-explicit fics in fandom. Always. But T rated fics will always have an audience. Tell your story, regardless 💛

Rhubarb is laying on my belly and she and the baby seem to have got themselves into a cycle of: cat purrs, baby kicks. Cat purrs harder from surprise, baby goes mental. Cat keeps purring, rinse and repeat etc etc etc. I'm just laying here taking it all like a sucker while they commune.

Had an unexpectedly good night's sleep last night for the first time in weeks and I'm utilising the brain power to happily daydream about all the seasonal fic I'm not writing right now 😌

Ed and Steve sitting around a winter solstice bonfire, just a small one, no chance of getting out of hand. Burning little paper notes that they've written all their regrets and sadnesses on for the year. Ushering in the longer, brighter days and saying goodbye to the darkness (cont..)

Formally submitted all the initial paperwork for mat leave and all I can say is the countdown is on for march 13th and the best part of a year caring about literally nobody else's children except my own one. Cannot WAIT for that responsibility shift.

I thought Saturday morning would be a lovely time for a lay in. A recovery from the week. A nice long sleep. My tiny passenger, on the other hand, has decided that 6am would be the perfect time to practice her newly learnt karate routine. So!!!

My new enemy who will never know he's my enemy is the MAN who manspread himself across TWO seats in the both tiny (we're talking 8-10 seats total) and unusually busy maternity waiting area this morning, letting visibly pregnant people stand while he texted. Enemy for life. For LIFE.

ALSO today is seven point three miles' birthday. It turns three whole years old. Because time apparently isn't real at all. 🔥⌚

There have been a few hiccups and I never want to see a cardboard box again but I am currently sitting in the kitchen of my new house. I have a GARDEN. And an UPSTAIRS 😭

Got a long list of notifs I can't bring myself to open and reply to bc my life is just too full of growing a kid who's not yet big enough to reliably let me know she's ok on a daily basis and a funeral to attend next week and a flat to pack up because we're moving next week and a full time job and.

Lungs is in the process of turning two, and seven point three miles turns three in a few weeks time, and I want to believe I have the capacity to write something to celebrate ONE of these two, considering they feel like my keystone fics, but ALAS. I continue to wish my writing back 😭

For those keeping track, em jr will be assigned female at birth! And she kept her chin tucked to her chest for her entire scan regardless of how much we harassed her so we have to go back for a rescan 🙃 I'm growing a stubborn, shy, wiggly kid.
