i still haven't written anything for a long while, but i'm being creative in other ways and i've been very fulfilled. life has also been absolute dog shit for other reasons, but paying attention to what gives me joy and energy, and getting more comfortable with setting boundaries, has helped lots 👍

ok but wait, i'm rereading lost (and found) and like—holy heck, i wrote that??? GOLLY writing slow burn and emotional denial was so so fun (and hot. it was really hot.)

i've been learning to knit, which has largely taken me off the part of the internet where one has to actually look at the screen and interact with others, but i think it's been good for me. i've been doing a lot of thinking and reflecting.

i miss writing, and i think i know what i need to do to get back into it, but all of those things feel like too much for my current bandwidth

finishing up my third bg3 run, and i decided to romance someone new for a change—and tbh, the ick that gale gave me the day i met him never went away and i sorely regret wasting my energy trying to talk him into being a better person. astarion’s easier to fix than him, and that’s saying something

please send love and support to your local elementary music teachers, christmas concert season is truly soul-sucking
