Me: We are on a quest to contain the thing that killed the god and probably become gods ourselves, so no big deal.
Him: But do please remember your order of operations: stop the god killer, THEN become a god

New use for romantasy: Find a book you really like with a good balance of plot and smut--then only allow yourself to listen to it for the 30 minutes in the morning when you exercise. I have basically made Sarah J. Maas my fitness dom.

Saw a personal ad that said they were "completely D&D free" and I thought "Damn, bad TTRPG experience? Was it one too many TPKs? Did your bard fail to seduce the dragon? Do you have the Wheaton dice curse?" Then, I realized that was probably not what they meant. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons

It is such a let down when you are having a wonderful geeky flirt with someone and he just keeps wanting to make it about him having an orgasm. Dude--we just met. You're hot, but I'm working and not in "view your cock" mode.

This has been the most restful weekend I have had in quite a while. Date night with the Nesting Partner last night, a good hike today, now hanging out in my room enjoying the solitude while NP and the 3rd member of our polycule enjoy the evening. #polyamory #nonmonogamy #compersion #polyintrovert

1st line for #TheMoth (the theme is Beef): It took me about 2 weeks to realize that my lover's other lover thought I was a total bitch, about 2 months to decide that she was herself a total bitch, and about 2 minutes to figure out that my beef wasn't actually with her--it was with him. #storyteller

I have an intense headache this morning that I am pretty sure was caused by crafting too hard last night. I just can't craft like I did in my wild college days! Still, stabbing something thousands of times to make it pretty is worth it. #felting #craftinghangover #craftywitch

It is the kind of event where being a dungeon master does not involve dragons.
Although, the Venn diagram of people who are poly, kinky, and play D&D in my life is basically just a circle. A sometimes dysfunctional, usually awesome, and always interesting circle. #polycule #dnd #storyteller

Today I am teaching new folks, including a couple of teenagers, how to play D&D! The biggest challenge will be getting the teenagers, who currently play BG3, to adapt to the different style of playing. #gamemistress #gameweaver #dnd #dungeonsanddragons

I recently went to see a friend for the first time in about 5 years. The last time I saw him, he was naked in my shower as I took pictures for a series of prints I was working on. When I get too immersed in mundane life, I need to remember that I am also that woman. #amwriting #amcreating

Your Daily Affirmation:
I am nonstick today. All the corruption, the lies, the aggression, the stupidity, just slip off of me as I slide into direct appreciation of the world as art. Also waffles.

I watch #CriticalRole for the story, humor, and fantastic roleplay--but there is a reason the MMC in my novel is named Liam.

Me: I can't offer much in marriage beyond snark, excellent cooking skills, and lyrics to interject into all conversations.
Her: My lover wants to know if it comes with a dowry.
Me: Does a huge jar of 20-sided dice, the complete Tennant Dr. Who, and 14 in progress craft projects count as a dowry?

I am so much more hopeful at the end of #OnyxStorm than I was at the end of #IronFlame. Looking forward to the next book, but totally cool waiting and spending time in some other worlds in the meantime. #litchick #fantasy #Xaden
