it’s an employee appreciation day at work and it’s really telling to see teams have lunch catered, little parties, etc. while the best i get is a video from my manager in a different state opening a thank you card with a note that basically says “sorry everything sucks but you ROCK” 🥲

life needs to be less expensive so i can quit this marketing office job and chase my dreams or whatever

i think i’m actually doing a career 180 into healthcare and emergency response bc fuck marketing and fuck ai and fuck corporate america

took a boxing class today and it was AMAZING i will be back but now my hands/arms can’t stop shaking when i pick things up 🥲

one of my favorite compliments i’ve received recently is being told i look like a person who needs to be covered in tattoos and it’s so so true

so caught up in my fitness goals that writing & reading feel like foreign concepts to me. like when will i ever just sit down 😭

another proof of life update, fanfic edition. this time for caitvi cyberpunk au. i really wish i could’ve pulled something together for the game’s 5 year anniversary but ah well. here’s some banter instead

looking at chapter names i have in my current outline for the remainder of post apoc au and wow i think i really cooked. nice selection of twd episode titles that still click with me/tell me what happens after all these years 🥹

uploading this snippet as proof of life that i’m still working on this fic AND that these two idiots do start to learn how to communicate

I come back almost 4 years later with Ch 5 of my Catradora YouTube Exes au... anything is possible #catradora #catradora fic archiveofourown.org/works/332269...

scored a date ✌️ (cue me internally screaming)

"Oxford commas are a sign you write with ai" I will find such a unique way to rip out your spine that they'll make a movie about it

how to hold a conversation on a dating app, a book not written by me as i deal with the consequences of my own actions

got a new haircut and suddenly i’m fearlessly messaging girls on hinge. who am i…

love being almost 7k words into a chapter and i haven’t even started The Scenes that i originally outlined for it 🤡

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

oh to have 8,000 steps before 9am on a work day bc you’ve sold your soul to the cardio gods

went to a family reunion today and immediately thought “it’s me, i’m the gay cousin” and honestly? how iconic of me

the next time i try to donate blood i’m gonna tell the red cross people to treat me like a final boss level bc i can’t keep having “incidents” 😭

mission success

trying to convince my friend to join a gay kickball league with me bc why not

how to cheer up friends (even if they’re no longer upset/stressed out) 101: just randomly send them a scene from your wip

back on my post apoc au bullshit today and i’m remembering how fun it is to write catradora banter

buckle up is a fitting catchphrase for post apoc au tbh

i’m collecting too many nickels from people assuming i dyed my hair when i cut it short when the truth is i was never a natural blonde lol

horrified to say i’m starting to enjoy running

cyberpunk au… maybe it’s time to shake off the rust and write caitvi again

"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

a raccoon is napping on my apartment balcony and he’s been there since this afternoon. i’ve been craving a dog and instead mother nature has delivered me a sleepy trash panda. i’ve named him oscar

technically from an outline but okay sure

i have also found fencing classes… y’all i’d be lying if i said i wasn’t intrigued

me reading my writing as i write it: this is HORRIBLE me reading my writing a week later: oh this fucks actually wash, rinse, repeat

"what's your writing process like?" my writing process:

the sexual tension between me and these longsword & rapier/parrying dagger classes… unreal

i’ve never wanted to take photos of myself like this in my entire life. i’m enjoying my gender upgrade fr
