In other news, lots of things happened this year. I hurt my ankle in the first half of the year and with it getting colder its starting to get stiff and hurt, I had to get a new car, and I was accepted into a masters program for behavioral psychology.

I haven't been on here in a bit and I missed the con livestream because life happens. I'm just a bit sad that the ofmd fixation faded (i haven't read ofmd fanfic since march) and new fixation came in (wicked, the pitt, hadestown) it'll be back. It always comes back

It's the end of an era 😭😭, I had to buy a new car today and I can't transfer my peeling ed and Stede stickers (my stizzy charm that hangs off the rear view mirror is already in place in my new car), it was fun while it lasted

Well the 3rd bit of bad finally hit, I sprained my ankle over a moth ago, my cars ac stopped working 2 weeks ago and will cost $2000, and finally my sister was admitted to the hospital yesterday for a severe kidney infection because she has over 30 kidney stones in her kidneys

it's a solo song and it's only for the brave

My boss told me and one of coworkers that we've been promoted to team leads today and will have extra responsibilities so we won't have a client some days

It's been 3 weeksish since I sprained my ankle and I realized a few things A) past 2 years sprained my left ankle about 4 times B) this time was the most severe, but I've been mostly walk normal for 2 weeks now C) I have utterly forgotten how to walk down the stairs normally, can walk up just fine

I just finished the doctor who finale and im so confused????? What do you mean it ended like that??? What??!?

Guess who twisted their ankle and scratched up both hands pretty badly at work and had to call their dad to drive them back to their house. Good news I don't have to go to work tomorrow Bad news my ankle is throbbing

I just watch the ballad of songbirds and snakes for the first time, why did they change so many things!?!?! Grrr what I would call the most important scene was completely changed

I'm rereading the hunger games for the first time in a decade probably and I've forgotten how funny Peeta is

I'm rereading The Hunger Games for the first time in a decade (I finished sunrise on the reaping and ballad of songbirds and snakes a week ago) and annotating lots of things

So I rearranged my plushies on my bed and while I don't think it will last a day, it looks really good. Of course I have my OFMD and Wicked plushies by me

Discussing fears with client at work, he said he didn't have any i told him mine is heights, fast foreward 3 minutes and another client came over and me, 2 clients and coworker are looking at pictures of bugs. Found out I have new fear, whip scorpion spiders

I've been listening to Epic on repeat for the last 2ish weeks and a) woke up this morning singing the entirty of Thunder Bringer in my head and b) have been singing it out loud to the point, I think, no I know my family is tired of it

My father sent me a video without saying anything, i open it and it's SAS rogue heros specifically consecutive character as if I didn't already know he was in it

I spent my day reading Sunrise on the Reaping and ow my heart hurts now

I'm reading Sunrise on the Reaping and it's been 13 years since I've read the hunger games trilogy, the connections being created hurt Suzanne Collins said she only writes in this universe when she has something to say and she's saying a lot "I won't let them use my tears for their entertainment"

Well I bought an eclectic mix of books today

We did tie dye with the clients at work and my hands are dyed pink and green now, though the greens faded a bit so it looks like I bruised my hand

Ohhh it was so good, i cried the Orpheus did an opt up for the last note of if its true and everyone gave it their all, i want give specific kudos to actir playing Hades because damn his performance was fantastic, the Hermes was spectacular I listen to the obc recording but I want tour recording

Little Izzy and Little Frenchie are doing date night to Hadestown and I'm feeling like a 3rd wheel (in other news, I'm so excited to see this musical)

I'm obsessed and it keeps replaying in head, constantly "this life is amazing when you greet it with open arms"

Showing him his Badness Level (it's higher than average for someone of his size) #yarnboys

I've been meaning to listen to epic the concept album and I'm currently listening to it for the first time and oh no, i can feel another intense interest coming in

Was not expecting to feel feelings on my lunch break but here we are

Well, my family went to Disney... without me... again. They didn't even ask if i wanted to go, not like i could have but if I could i would have bought my own ticket. So instead I have to take care of the dog and chickens for four days which they didn't say "hey do you mind"

I'm seeing my mom for the first time since Christmas and I have some new friends for her to meet and Izzy (she says that's her grandson) (I think I'm obsessed with Wicked)

the best part of ofmd s2 is when izzy is like "I think you're amazing" and stede is like "omg go on" and then Izzy is like "I'm amazed ur such a LITTLE BITCH"

The kind of day I had at work ended with me laying on the floor, not just physically exhausting but also mentally plus we went to the park which was a whole other level of physically exhausting

Izzy is feeling a 3 year old hyperfixation (one of his longest ever) start to ,not fade, but maybe dwindle slightly and a new one (well 3 different ones) taking its place. Its a different kind of mourning, Izzy still sees posts for the last and still feels the love but it's not the same #Izzyisme

Yeah, I remember it, how could I forget it!?

"Grave (noun, verb, adjective)" - a fix-it written for the Izzy Hands Lives zine. I put a lot of love and care into it. archiveofourown.org/works/55234570

Thinking about Con's poem again, the ring and realized I wrote this back in Nov 2022 "Rustling through the dead man's pockets he pulls out a ring, gold band with a small emerald stone. He pockets it, planning on giving it to James, as a peace offering, maybe. Or as a sign of love for his matelot."
