Dear insomnia. Please let me sleep. Please?

Well dang. The craft fair I had set up for last night is cancelled today due to weather (and too many other vendors cancelling). I was really hoping to gauge interest for my woodwind key pendants. Sigh.

Completed woodwind key pendants! Flute, clarinet, and saxophone.

Aragorn: “Legolas! What do your elf eyes see?” *Distant naked orc cartwheel contest* Legolas: “Uh, regular Tolkein stuff. Rocks. Clouds. Trees with rich history and whatnot.”

Beaky BBQ this morning and I now have a fever from…? Cauterization? Lidocaine shots? Arctic cold sweeping across the country? Ughhhhh

News! 🎧 #rituals

WIP of some pendants, seven in all, for an upcoming craft fair. Let's hope they do well!

*headdesks* Basic geometry, can I remember it? 19” diameter is NOT 19” radius. Sigh. I kept thinking, “this seems kinda big…” About halfway through this thing before it hit me. So much fabric wasted. Maybe I can salvage it anyway.

I’ve been kinda quiet on here. Real life has gotten super busy, but here are some pendants I’ve made. Flute key, sculpted dragon’s head, and sculpted tabby cat!

Happy Fallout Day, from me and the Sole Survivor!!

And now I have con crud from @retrogamecon.bsky.social this last weekend. Soooooo worth it! My BG3 print collected more signatures! Everyone was so kind and friendly!

Now that the gifts have been presented, I can post pictures of them! A home embroidered "Folklands" luggage tag for @timdownie.bsky.social , hand-sculpted and painted phoenix feather keychain for @benstarr.bsky.social and sax key Oakfather pendant for @davejones.actor ! All three were well received!

Awesome weekend! I managed to acquire two more signatures on my poster! @timdownie.bsky.social and @davejones.actor were amazing gentlemen and absolutely delightful to chat with!

Herb Alpert got his start playing trumpet in L.A.'s public schools. He wants to help make that "magic" possible for students.

And the repair gods demanded another blood sacrifice. The screwdriver slipped yesterday while disassembling this saxophone.

Did my randomly sporadic deep clean of the aquarium last night and I think it looks so much better!

Interesting… I may have finished my fanfic novel three years ago, but I’m still getting new readers and comments! www.wattpad.com/980506693-fa...

I played Dead Take yesterday and could not put it down! Brilliant performances by @neilnewbon.bsky.social @benstarr.bsky.social @laurabaileyvo.bsky.social @willingblam.bsky.social @matthewmercer.bsky.social ! I do NOT play horror games as a rule, but Dead Take is the rare exception!

Woot woot! Monarch caterpillars on the intentionally planted milkweed. You go, lil’ ones!

I’m not dead, just been super busy and fighting off a bad cold. But! I managed to finish my entry for the VA Art competition! Feathered cape- raven!

I need help. My studio flooded from a sewage drain burst. Now I have to have the entire room gutted for damage. I have multiple beautiful fursuits for sale. Finding homes for 2-3 of them would get me to my goal. Please share, please help. This has been a nightmare.

Psssst, I've updated my available plush list. Full list via link in bio Any shares would be 🙌

Did anyone get the number of the con that just hit me? (AC was a blast, still on recovery.) I am not as young as I used to be.

Gryphoness on the loose in Pittsburgh!

Art show set up- finished! Wish me luck for bids.

Been a while, but I finished my themed piece for Anthrocon next week! “The OG Mermaid”

Daily dose of “Awwwww” courtesy of Doc and Thunder.

After many hours of sewing, it’s finished! Feathered cape! Lined, with a hook-and-eye clasp.

Work in progress for my feathered cape. So. Much. Sewing.

I’m working on art, really! Rough WIP of a feathered cape.

Dear lungs, Breathing is kind of important, yeah? Can we please figure out how to do so without pain, or fever, or struggling? Sincerely, me

Lineup of my (cleaned) woodwind playtesting mouthpieces and reeds. Can you identify them all?

I finally finished my Covid project! I attempted to knit a blanket!

@devilligan.bsky.social , I blame you. This game scratches my crafting survival itch!

@timdownie.bsky.social , is this you?

Glorious Equinox to you!

"Magical breadsticks, you say? Don't mind if I do!" Tiny!Gale at Pizza Hut.

I had forgotten about this screenshot I took while messing around with console codes in Fallout 4. Hey, @matthewmercer.bsky.social this might be your nightmare, but it's my dream, lol! <3

@sciggles.com Just an FYI, FA is not playing nice with Firefox. I can't login. The captcha thingee doesn't show up. Are you aware and/or able to help? Thanks in advance!

33 hours into my Karlach Honor mode and the Ch'rai trapped and eliminated the party. Sigh. Time to start anew! This time, I'm going with a monk. She's a beefcake, her name is Karen, and she WILL speak with your manager.

Tiny!Gale helping me at work. Everyone needs a pocket wizard! @timdownie.bsky.social

Window kitties!

Kittehs!! Doc had been snuggled under Thunder’s chin but looked up as the pic was taken.

I found a perfect spot for these BG3 stickers! Astarion is thrilled with my blood sugar test kit while Gale is a bit disconcerted.

Not much to say here. Been battling an unspecified lung… thing (which as a wind player makes life harder than it should). Been super busy at work which is a GOOD problem to have! Between work and illness, creating stuff has taken a back seat. Um, here’s a pic from Twenty Sided Tavern instead. 😁

One of the funnier interactions.

From last night’s Twenty Sided Tavern, featuring @neilnewbon.bsky.social ! It apparently was “make Detroit: Become Human references” in the audience. Neil was a good sport about it.

Debating just moving over here and letting my FB gather cobwebs. The only issue is FB links to my relatives who would most likely not follow me here, or even "get" the Tyrrlin thing. What to do, what to do...
