kendiefoxI did not mean to fall off of the internet for a month. But here we are, I guess?
Jobseeking is stressful and ongoing. Living with people is stressful and wonderful as we all adjust to my unmedicated ass being here. Cats remain delightful, adorable shitheads.
I have started a new quilt top. I pulled out Queers in Space and realized I was missing some key skills, so I paged through quilt magazines to find something I liked and could use to build those skills. So far, so good. Much practice on the 1/4in seams I need as well as more accurate methods of cutting. Also, I keep reminding myself that I'm making something I would like to be able to use for a very long time and that taking time in the creation will (hopefully) make it last longer. Hopefully.
US politics are terrifying garbage, the COVID-19 pandemic is terrifying, and I just qualified for Medicare. Which is a whole bundle of feels I do not want to unpack.
That said, I've been watching both the partner and the metamour play video games on the downstairs TV and it's great to watch games happen that I could not play for myself. The Last of Us, which J is playing, is too scary and intense for me, which is why I stopped playing it. And Persona 5 has long stretches of tedium as well as specific weirdnesses I associate with Japanese visual novels (pervy characters, gross romance options, etc). But both games are really fun to watch! Except when I have to look away from TLOU because horrifying zombie things happen or when The Cat in P5 gets all pervy over a high school girl again.
I am myself running around in Skyrim again. Playing the real estate market while the Empire fights Stormcloaks. Also going to join and take over the mage's college soon. I have children to look after, you know.
So it's not been great, but it has been solidly okay. Onward to more okay days than not-okay ones.
