Wasted a perfectly good Saturday morning not doing anything. I kept thinking “Raid is soon, I should do something beforehand.” But what? I already finished my last book (Absolution) (great book, I liked it better than the og trilogy) and hadn’t yet picked something else to read. I didn’t feel like p...
(1) New king!! My g2 mngwa, smooth boyjazz, took the throne today. I’m only five months late to the mngwa party. pls inundate me with stud requests (Someone in chat today said, rather disparagingly, that mngwas are the third most common mut on site. Well, it’s fine; I still like them. Also, it...
Still wrestling this aggressive ennui. I didn’t even go outside yesterday, not even to take out the trash, though I really should have. Gotta change the air filter (should’ve been done two days ago). Gotta take out the big kitchen trash (trash is piling up on the kitchen counters because the trash i...
Sooo BB’s in the ER with appendicitis. Saturday morning he was totally fine. We read books together; he swung on his trampoline bar and played with blocks and asked me to draw a sandcastle; I taught him to play hide-and-seek. By late morning he was winding down, and he had an early nap at noon, a bi...
We’ve got a new ancient, vigils, and the hatchlings are devastatingly ugly. Starts things on a bad foot to see THAT crawling out of a clanbound egg. People have been clamoring for an ugly hatchling for a while; I don’t get it, but I guess they’re happy now. I’m not fussed about the hatchling form—th...
It’s wild how motivating the Good Morning watercolor journaling course has been, despite me not really following it. Every day I’m like “what should I watercolor today?” and I’ve been putting brush to paper most days. Sometimes twice a day—I’ll do something in the afternoon, and then in the evening ...
Last night I watched a vid by a new (to me) artist, creationsceecee. It was titled “blobs to florals” so of course I had to check it out. It was a large-scale project. The artist worked at it on-and-off for a week. For a painting that started as loose blobs of color splashed around the page, it beca...
why is LD so RUDE to people who just want a cool hybrid kingMale hybrids can’t pass. Otherwise everyone would get one. That’s fine though; I just want one for cool factor.Hybrids are born with one-tenth of the stats they would otherwise get. Harsh, but not a dealbreaker, since I patrol my heirs. A 1...
There’s a recurring online meme of people who don’t follow recipes and then complain about the results. For instance, “I thought this recipe sounded good but had too much fat, so I reduced the fat by two-thirds and replaced the eggs with applesauce and replaced the breadcrumbs with chia seeds and it...

So I got the Let’s Make Art Good Morning Spring Journaling Course. It’s described as “art journaling,” but it’s really just about establishing a daily art habit, which I already have. I signed up anyway because I’ve enjoyed so many of their free videos and want to support them and was craving more c...
Brother and his wife moved house a couple weekends ago. The new place is a big two-story house with a basement. Now my parents get a guest room. I’m still sleeping on the couch, but it’s in the basement, which is much nicer than the middle of Grand Central Station. They plan to get a new couch for t...
