I Read A New Book!
In Which Our Heroine Celebrates A Small Win In order for you, Dear Reader, to understand how exciting the title of this entry is, I should give you some background. As soon as I learned how to read, I had my nose in a book pretty much constantly. The Library was one of my very favorite places. I would check out books and books and read them all and then come back, ravenous for More: More…
Looking Forward To Feels
In Which Our Heroine Tries A Different Approach To Planning For 2026 I was reading one of my favorite blogs, From The Pen Cup, and Mary talked about a journaling prompt from The Book of Alchemy. The prompt encourages one to write a “To Feel” list for the year, rather than a “To Do” list. This really resonated with me. I tend to get very focused on my Tasks and What they are, rather than Why…

Dragon Magic
In Which Our Heroine Reflects On Light And The Joy Engendered By Shiny Plastic Objects I’ve been meaning to write this entry for a while. Life has been busy here (as usual), as I’m sure it’s been for you, Dear Reader. It feels like time gets away from me faster and faster every year, despite my efforts to try to slow down, be mindful, and notice the good things in life as they (seemingly) flash…

California Mille, Days 2-4
In Which Our Heroine Recognizes That She Is Terrible At Keeping Up With Running Travelogues And Decides To Stick To Event Reports This entry has been holding things up for me for a bit. I have other things to tell you about, Dear Reader, but I wanted to make sure I finished up this entry before I moved on. And then the Procrastination and Busy-ness set in…but you don’t need to read about that.…

California Mille 2025, Day 1
In Which Our Heroine Attempts To Begin A Travelogue Today is the first day of the California Mille, a 1000-Mile Classic Car Tour that Alex and I have been on once before. I enjoyed it last time. I would like to practice trying to bring you along on my travels, Dear Reader, in hopes that you might enjoy a few of these moments with me. The first day is fairly relaxed. We picked up our Swag Bags…

Reflection On Rest
In Which Our Heroine Reflects On The Effects Of A Weekend Well Spent A View Over Mercer Lake, Oregon Sometimes, one just needs to get away and recharge, and Alex and I were lucky enough to do that last weekend. We started with a beautiful drive… The Oregon Coast as seen over the bonnet of our Jaguar XK120 Alex helped one of our friends build a 3D Printer. We cooked delicious…

On The Go
In Which Our Heroine Ponders The Advantages Of Blogging From A Portable Device A broken scallop shell that I found on a trip to the Oregon Coast a few weeks ago One of my goals for myself this year is to write here more frequently. Unfortunately, being me, I have a tendency to put pressure on myself to write up the perfect updates or essays at my computer and, due to my Amazing Powers of…

You Don't Have To Do That - At Least, Not That Way
In Which Our Heroine Reflects On Who Is Truly The Boss Of Her Like many people with ADHD, I struggle with staying organized. I need routines and systems, and I feel (or have felt) that I needed to follow those specific systems To The Letter if they were going to be effective. I thought that, once I found the right System, all I would need is Discipline and Willpower. And then, everything would…
Progress
I've finally updated my blog! Look at the pretty knitting!
In Which Our Heroine Is Bad At Taking Progress Photos, But Manages To Show Her Progress Regardless Welcome to the New Year, Dear Reader! This would normally be the part where I talk about how I have Resolved To Blog More Often, Honest, I Really Mean It This Time. I do mean it, every time. But I’m turning over a new leaf and blogging when I feel like it, not when I feel like I should. I do hope…
Pride & Progress 🏳️🌈
I've updated the blog!
In Which Our Heroine Ponders Pride, Progress And All That Entails It’s LGBTQIA+ Pride Month! That means it’s time for me to ramble a little bit, as well as repair yet another oversight. My wrist, complete with rainbow watchband and bisexual flag themed chain mail bracelet. I came out as bisexual in 2020 – at least, I did to my friends, some of my family, and most of my social media at the…

An Amusing Irony
I updated my blog! AGAIN!
In Which Our Heroine Remembers Something She Forgot To Say In my last entry, I did a sort of wrap-up of 2023. It was quick and I tried to remember everything important, but I forgot something! This year, I was officially diagnosed with ADHD (Inattentive Type). No, the irony has not escaped me. That said, being diagnosed has actually been a relief. I’m not just silly or scatterbrained – my…

The Best Laid Plans...
In Which Our Heroine Asks, “Is This Thing On?” So, yeah. Hi. It’s me again, over a year from when I last posted. “Lemme explain. No, there is too much. Lemme sum up.” Inigo Montoya It’s been a busy year! Like most years, there’s been some joy, some sorrow, and some growth. The problem is that I’ve been so busy doing things (and procrastinating) that I keep forgetting to share with all of you.…

I needed this today. Perhaps you do, too. Transcript: NOT "Anything less than a perfect version of this is a waste of time!" BUT "I'd rather do a dumb version of this than not do it at all." NOT "I only managed to make these two pages. I hate my garbage brain." BUT "Despite my garbage brain, I did two whole pages! Hooray!" NOT "I should have done this ten years ago." BUT "Fuck it, I'm doing it now!"

ALWAYS REBLOG WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS PLEASE; ITS SO MUCH MORE THAN IMPORTANT TO PEOPLE. IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO SOMEBODY AND EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT NOT SEE THIS IN THE SAME LIGHT, SOMEONE MIGHT. INFACT YOU REBLOGGING THIS COULD STOP SOMEONE TAKING THEIR LIFE TONIGHT.
I noticed there isn’t one here for Ireland, so
Irish free suicide helpline: 01-116 123
last time i reblogged this, i got this ask:
so please, please reblog. this could actually save a life.
Check the notes, some people have added hotlines that aren’t listed here.
These numbers are important to know! They have saved my life more times than I want to admit. And if you don’t want to call these hotlines, message me! I will help you any way that I can. Or talk to someone that you can trust.
SOMEONE WILL BE THERE FOR YOU 💗
trans suicide prevention hotline: 877-565-8860
canada: 833-456-4566
i didn’t see one for slovakia so
0800-800-566 (adults)
0800-500-333 (youth)
116111 (youth and kids)
Be strong, keep fighting a little longer. You can get through this. I believe in you.
Always reblog these, I needed the suicide help hotline once and someone out there might need it too.
And this isn’t some random “oh how nice, this is a good PSA, I should reblog it” thing, either.
You are needed in this world. You. Please hang in there and don’t go anywhere. (Doesn’t matter that I don’t know you personally. It’s still true.)
You matter. Please stay.
things that made me stop wanting to die that require no effort whatsoever
change the color used to highlight text on your laptop
move the pictures on your wall
stack whatever clutter is in your room into piles even if you don’t have time to clean it all
slightly vary your commute, even just by one street
change where you sit and scroll aimlessly on your phone even if it’s only to the chair in your room instead of your bed
drink water or juice out of a wine glass in the morning because nothing is real
shower with the lights off, without music
buy $3 flowers at trader joe’s—they look bad next to the more expensive ones but they look so good in your room
start typing things you don’t post into your notes. your thoughts can be worth documenting even if you don’t deem them worth sharing
wake up super early just once. you don’t have to make it a habit it’s just extra satisfying to go to bed that night
listen to the entirety of your favorite album from 2015
Almost all of these are about variety. Humans need stimulation! We need enrichment! We literally cannot do the same thing every day!
The other day I was feeling miserable, so I hopped on a bus and rode it all the way back to where I’d started, and my brain, which had finally had some proper stimulation via new environments, was suddenly ready to go again!
This is why taking walks/drives and trying new hobbies are good for you! Don’t turn yourself into a sad zoo animal! You need some pumpkins to roll around in your enclosure!
ITS BACK!!!!!
god i fucking love the quote “dont turn yourself into a sad zoo animal” it has really inspired me!
Enrichment! Do things in a new way! It's good for you and your brain!
A very specific and powerful Kryptonite: cheerfully dumb characters with one (1) intense skill that they don’t even realize is difficult and are therefore not prideful about. Bertie Wooster can flawlessly sight-read brand-new pieces for jazz piano while also sight-singing the lyrics, but only does it because he wants to listen to the song and he has to perform it in order to hear it. He finishes virtuosic prima vista performances with “I say, jolly clever lyric, that,” as if he’d been listening to it on the wireless. He just somehow drank an entire martini while simultaneously playing a ragtime piece by ear, and all he knows is that he is ready for a refill. He thinks his greatest talent is the ability to grow a mustache.
Jeeves: The new gentleman has a certain aesthetic charm but is mentally negligible; no doubt I—
Bertie: *playing Rhapsody in Blue, arranged for solo piano in his head after hearing it once the night before* Bit of a wheeze, this Gershwin fellow, what?
Jeeves:

Bertie: I say, bit of a—
Jeeves: what
I love these boys so much.
