This week I am in a waiting-to-be-called-or-not-called-for-jury-duty stasis loop, and as part of that each day I pay a dog sitter to look after KaylaDog, whilst I am not called for jury duty.

Today, as a result of that, I found myself in my local library, which has free tea and coffee for everyone.

Thread for when you press Submit on a funding app.

That is this thread.

This time it was so painful to do, I promised myself it would be the last time. So this may stay a very short thread! The weeks and months will reveal all...

Turns out the nice thing about having a social media account where you only have five followers (and only four of those are real, and one of those four seemingly hasn't been on here for two months) is that there is a whole new level of freedom in writing...

Long my that freedom last.

In other news, I did edits on a script today that I have been in freeze about for NINETEEN MONTHS. I am gloriously giddy about this. Turns out the universe's time isn't my time.

Yesterday was a biggie. I met up with someone I've been wanting to see for the past year. I got to help someone else. I remembered who I am in a way I haven't for ages. And for the first real time since a friend died, I got to talk about him and about how life feels without him.

I have found Chutzpod [their twitter account is @chutzpod]
to be hugely helpful in my understanding about the war in Israel-Palestine. Never more so than this episode. I'd really encourage a listen.

Hi friends.

I guess we set about making this a good place to hang out.

For me, that will involve actually posting. Let that begin now...
