I am playing Rogue Trader and 10 seconds into character creation I was already having a great time. This is absolutely someone who should be running a spaceship shaped like a cathedral. Also she’s a criminal.

Watched some episodes of Xena yesterday and assembled a bookshelf. Yes the bookshelf is 50% candles. No the books aren’t organized, it’s my “to read” bookshelf and I was in a rush to go eat dinner 📚

Some art from life drawing class. Left hand one is marker—I haven’t used these in close to 10 years but they still work pretty well.

I have been trying for years, unsuccessfully, to get the wisteria that came with my house to either A. Bloom or B. Die so I can plant something else there. So imagine my surprise when I looked up and saw blossoms IN JULY

Record organizing time. I don’t have enough dividers so I’m expanding the definition of goth in new and interesting directions. I might put the hobbit under folk, along with the rest of the 70s.
