there’s something really special in the days after a new story idea finally pops into your head, where you’re brainstorming and making notes and sending half-formed thoughts to your cheerleader and it’s all so exciting
and then it all comes crashing down as you realize you have to actually write the damn thing
pet death cw
suggestions, however honest and eager they may be, are not welcome. if you are a rando non-mutual and do this, you will be blocked.
I have to put Odo down today.
He’s been severely diabetic for years and we’ve struggled (unsuccessfully) to get it under control; with how sick I’ve become, I just can’t take care of him anymore (not just meds but he needs a lot of cleanup daily re: bathroom habits)
I feel so bad and guilty. I know it’s not my fault I’m sick and can’t take care of him, but he’s my cat and I should’ve been able to take care of him better.
I can’t even be there! I can’t hold him and pet him and tell him what a good boy he’s been. My parents have to take him because I can’t safely navigate the stairs leading to my condo.
AND I’m moving in with my parents this weekend or early next week. We had a hard convo yesterday about how it’s not safe for me to be on my own in my condo anymore. So that also sucks, but it’s the right decision: I can’t do stairs, or vacuum, or safely scoop the cat litter, or safely shower (my showers are either INCREDIBLY tiny or are in a bathtub where I’d have to step over the edge to get in/out), or safely walk to the kitchen, I’ve fallen twice and nearly fallen a bunch of times. So it’s absolutely the right decision, but it’s a sucky one.
And I’ve lost my voice. From the cough, from the cancer, I don’t know. But it sure sucks not being able to communicate with people other than text and facial expressions.
@swaps55: hey do you have any playlists I can —
me: OH BOY DO I
I just finished ME3 with Liv for the VERY FIRST AND ONLY TIME and am having some Feelings about it so figured this would be a good time to rec y’all to
anthem
Liv/Garrus, Liv+Liara, Hannah/Zaeed | rated T | 13k words | immediately at the Crucible + 8 months that follow | angst, friendship, PTSD, survival, starvation, reunions, eventual (I promise) happy ending
There’s a crack in everything. Olivia’s never asked Zaeed what he means by that, but she wants there to be a hopeful second half to the phrase. Eight months is a long time without Garrus.
it’s my birthday!
y’all I turned my xbox on for the first time in nearly a year (it turns itself on randomly and so I unplugged it and just…never plugged it back in) and got the console update out of the way
so after I vacuum my house tomorrow I GET TO PLAY OLIVIA
