I'm infatuated with dancer! Such a fun class! Tonight I endured many a grind and hit Level 70 💜 As usual: thanks to my friends! 😁

Doodling Zimmy.

falling in love with The Peaks while leveling Dragoon. And...falling. Period. :D Someone, please take away this game. And my vino. No. Don't. Seriously. Don't.

Doodle time!!! Chort and the Hollow King discuss the finer gastronomy in life. #ffxiv #chort

OH HOHOHOHOHOHOHOO! Only like my - I dunno - 5th time running it today? I has a /cackle!

I have learned that FFXIV Portrait Mode - specifically stickers - has a *sigh* ... and by sigh I mean FART CLOUD. I am so pleased right now. I have no words.

Woohooo!

This man right here? Gives GREAT hugs!!! FFXIV Anaheim 2026 FanFest was epic. But this? Absolutely one of my to fav memories of the trip! Impromptu Hugs in line AND then random Meet & Greet hugs!!

I haven't played any Lancer yet, but I've got the bug. And @sladedbart.bsky.social has pulled my pilot and mech out of my head with great veracity. May I present Zim. Callsign: Old Lady. Mech: Raubahn's Left Arm; modified Lancaster. *squee* Greasemonkey and all of her crassness glory incoming.

I had my first Jolliebee meal on 4/22. The staff were incredible, the memories were epic, and the chicken? To die for. Chicken skin, rice, gravy taco forever!! And /eatchicken. Such JOY!!! Thank you FFXIV and Jolliebee for a wonderful collab and introducing my tastebuds to glory!

I have no words 💕 Koji Fox fun and hugs!!!!

Yowza!

I haven't figured out how to share someone else's IG posts on Blue! Our 3+ month sleeve project, followed by facelift on my 20-year-old Nikko Hurtado pomegranate tattoo 💕 These pics are from (early-March) fresh. Tonight Wonka took healed sleeve photos. Those are pending. But I'm sooooo happy.

One of today's many lovely pleasures was meeting and being poked by @piercedbyjulie at Apogee in OB! In two months, we'll downsize the bars and pop in my Industrial Strength bits and baubs! I added another pair of holes to my ears. As a tin can once said, "I'll be back.

A month ago I dropped a 2 pound candle on my foot where the foot meets the ankle. As it still hurts today with certain movement or too much walking, I went to doc. Stress Fracture. He says it's not a horrible stress fracture, but is one, osteopenia would certainly make that an easier occurrence.

Squee!

It's been a year without Lala?!? OG Zim's back and chaotic!

I may be enjoying this haircut more than I should. Chaotic Cloud.

Getting ready for the Endometriosis Awareness Stroll put together by @gifts2help in the Carlsbad Flower Fields today. Hat is appropriately flaired-out. Natural sunscreen handy! Let's goooo!

Woohoo super low Vitamin D labwork + osteopenia = heavy duty Vitamin D regimen! I've been on a Calcium and Vit D regimen since my Osteo diagnosis last year, and working with my nutritionist, but not enough!! 1.25mg 50,000 units One pill. Once a week. For six months! Let's gooooo. Pretty pills!

Hatching Tide? I'm egg-cited!

I have the hair :D CloudyZim.

Ardbert, my dearest Husbando, is now Dadbert! Commission by the superior talented and equally adored @sladedbart.bsky.social with a nod toward "Thank Goodness You're Here." >:(

The Mothercrystal, Ageless Necropolis, Hell on Rails, and Recollection. No cards. For any of them. Again! 🤯 The daily card hunt resumes again tomorrow!

I cannot be the only one with the hots for Carnelian... And thank you for the eye-candy, Square Enix! Speak up! #FFXIV

Today the chonkyboi has been earned! <3

Squee! Relic weapon #3 done!

@sladedbart.bsky.social is my good luck charm! I've been trying to get this mount whistle from the Coffers for years! <3 Night Pegasus is miiiiiiiiine <3

It's been a rough week. Blehhhh!!!!! Finished work today, then hit my trainer for some stretches, then McDs for some fuel, the pharmacy for meds, the bank for moola...and now? Tattoo session #9 on right arm sleeve. Time for some R&R...

I am now the proud owner of this lovely pokémon card, may I say it's my first pokémon card. Probably my last and only. Embellished and painted by @wonkatastic. And it will give me so many smiley days at work. It is just nothing but joy - bubbly wonderful joy! BUBBLES!!!!!! 💕

Today's distracty doodle :) I'm so 10 years old.

What if Ticks really just wanted a hug? And they scamper up so quickly to your Titan for just that?! AND WE MURDER THEM!

I sort of tried to draw my Titan :D I had so much fun!! What a way to bring in the New Year 💕 Happy 2026!

What do you get when you mix Titanfall 2, wine, and ChatGPT? This. You get this. *I may actually have to try to DRAW THIS*

I was trying to snag a bubbly photo and the PVP duel dye nails, but I got some funky angle with profile mode and I don't even know what setting I tweaked for it. :D BUT I LOVE THESE NAILS! Thank you SquareE for the tiny things in life! <3
