oopsie flopped on sharing my monthly reading wrap-ups last year but i will try to remember to do them again this year.

aging is wild because one minute i was closing out bars and staying up all night with no issues and now i am knitting and listening to an audiobook about the history of salt and have a headache because i stayed up too late last night

what did I do at work today? well you see my coworker and i learned the berries and cream song in asl.

trying to book a tattoo for when im in japan next month and ive literally never been this stressed making a tattoo appointment (im impatient amd the time zone difference is killing me)

begging that nerds learn about personal space in the badge pickup line

finally getting around to reading Delicious in Dungeon and its so funny omg the anime is very good but the manga hits different

i just need one day a week where i dont have to leave my house so i can properly rot

like there are some Instagram accounts that are okay for finding events too but i like the actual event feature i will forget things otherwise haha

i only use it to find local events and even then it sucks for that

take me back to renfaire. i was born to eat cold pickle and drink mead.

ive already paid for a FLIGHT now i have to think about where to SLEEP???

booking vacation :)
booking hotels for vacation :(

A digital illustration of Balor, from Fields of Mistria, set against a solid magenta background. Balor is depicted from the neck up in his spring outfit. He's looking at the viewer with one eye, and is holding up a large blue sapphire over his other eye. The sapphire sparkles intensely, casting refracted light across him. Across the top is written "BALOR" and in the bottom left corner is the artist's watermark: a logo, and text reading "ART BY MK/RET @RETQUITS".

BALOR 💎

A family came up to me at piratefest today asking to pet my dog (of course, he loves people) and the mom told me how they just lost their dog who looked exactly like mine and when my dog licked their kids face the mom said "that was our dog saying hi through theirs" and i just about cried

i hate owning a car 🙃

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

now that im moved into my new home I would like to sleep for forever thanks

the cover of The Hobbit The Classic BBC Radio Production. shows grassy fields and the beginning stormy clouds.

this year for my re-read of The Hobbit I decided to listen to it since I have never actually listened to the Hobbit as an audiobook before. This BBC radio production was so much fun!
(i will likely re-read it physically this year too)
