Sometimes before a trip I start questioning everything. Like is this a good idea? Should I just not go? (The Libra in me takes over.)

But then I tell myself “all is okay. Once you are there, everything will be fine. And you will have a good time.” I also have a good friend group for support! 🖤

Sometimes I just want to move to Scotland.

Sometimes having adult money means spending it on movie posters from your childhood. Yes, that means I now own a “Herbie: Fully Loaded” poster.

going to a star wars themed burlesque show was needed.

the moody vibes of the pnw.

Like my current job is just a pay check with some learning while my true passion is my blog and fandom.

When family only asks you questions about your job, never about what you really want to talk about, tells me that they don’t really know me. (And it’s not like I hide what I like because it’s public on social media and on my blog.)

Some people just really want to make others miserable.

I’m trying to be better at putting books that I want onto my birthday / Christmas list. It’s also because I miss getting books as gifts.

A sudden wave of emotions hits me thinking about Leo, who passed away almost year ago and was my last childhood family pet. I truly miss him and Sabastian a lot.

A Disney Parks trip or a cruise sounds good right about now.

You know men that there are better pieces of clothing than a polo. You could wear a doublet which has been proven to look amazing by one, Matthew de Clermont. Just saying.

Finally did some packing.

Getting “Sunrise on the Reaping” before travelling was a fun surprise.

Even though I didn’t get outside much today, it was nice to have the windows open and not freeze.

I feel this.

I want to switch my wardrobe to my summer clothing so bad, but the weather isn’t there yet.

I miss the Eras Tour

I might not have “Interview with a Vampire” anymore, but I will bring “The Witching Hour” with me to New Orleans to read while I am visiting.

Never expected to see Alice Cullen and Wednesday Addams kiss, but thanks to Pan Am I have!

It's been a stupidly hot weekend in Sydney.
Dropped into the local library which has extended hours to beat the the heat today.
I've never seen it so full. All the tables occupied with people studying, or reading, or doing puzzles. People resting in the comfy chairs.
Libraries - more than books.

I wrote up a draft of my April newsletter!

my loves 🖤

Me needing to go secondhand shopping for frames so I can hang up all of my artwork from comic con.

Me also just wants to curl up with a book and not leave the house.

Sometimes I forget I have this app.

And to this day, my favourite Valentine’s Day was in third grade when a boy from my class that I had a crush on gave me a stuffed dog with hearts on it and candy jewellery.

After all these years I still remember and think fondly. Thank you Justin for making that day a core memory.

So I’m going to TopGolf tomorrow and I realised that the last time I did anything golf related was 12 years ago.

And yes, I will be bring my own golf clubs even though they have some. I would do the same for bowling if that was the activity.

I truly believe to survive winter you have to plan and go on one vacation during it to a warm location.
