jabber_mooseThings have been feeling much better, lately, thankfully! Having a routine that includes socialization has definitely made a huge difference. Having a schedule which things i look forward to really helps.
Show Consumption
He's Coming To Me with the Bad Buddy discord on Friday mornings, which is a lot of fun, even if i'm getting up and ready to voice call at 8:30am (we're watching it around 1:30GMT, so East Coast got a little shafted there). It's so nice to hear other people experience a show for the first time.
Last week, i jumped into a voice call with my small Critical Role server and rewatched Legend of Vox Machina and definitely plan to do that again. I've been watching it around when it gets released before watching with others, because i love the show but good LORD it's graphic and gory. I need to handle that on my own first.
Then there's Explore With The Note withyaaurens and another friend.
And also Fights Break Sphere and continue on with My Roommate Is A Detective with Yaaurens.
Got roped into marathoning Gameboys yesterday because i needed something lighter, and ended up invested and emotional at times. It does, however, somehow make me feel Very Old. But I ended up persuading the person who roped me in to watch with me (not that it was difficult).
Wednesdays are for Something In My Room. Fridays are also for Enchante after HCTM. Sundays are for Not Me (and MRIAD). Paint With Love ended yesterday, so once i get access to that, it'll be one thing off the old list.
I do have to get back to 55:15 Never Too Late, and i'm NOT ALLOWED TO START ANYTHING ELSE. I'm not!
It's...definitely a lot of media, but honestly, it's made such a difference on my mental health and motivation just having things to look forward to like this.
Caught up with my friend for our quesadilla, kvetch & bubble tea run. Shockingly, neither of us ordered our quesadillas because we were pushing ourselves to do something different. Needless to say, as delicious as everything was, we will be returning to our regularly scheduled programming. No shame in it.
Heard back from the Job Guy last week, he did want to follow up this week but we never got around to it, so hopefully within the next couple days.
Pup is on his Once Per Day visit and we are both thriving with that.
Biggest news: Started writing my fic for the Bad Buddy Exchange earlier this week, and i am having so much fun. Can't discuss specifics because, y'know Writing Exchanges, but it's so nice to enjoy what i'm writing. I feel like the only reason i'm slowing down is because i'm starting to see the fic naturally wrap up, and part of me wants to procrastinate on that and push more when i probably shouldn't.
I can't remember the last time i wrote this much, plus it really shook up my writer's block, and now i have multiple fics in process for different shows, and seeing my writing style has meant so much to me.
The problem with the exchange is because of the fact that we can't discuss assignments, I can't bounce ideas, editing and questions off the people in the server. As in, the people who know the show and probably have some very good insights into what the heck i'm talking about, so a lot of my other friends are getting the brunt of my rambles and i KNOW i'm being Too Much about it. Aaaah!
I also do need to start using Dreamwidth a little more than just Roundup Central. Start engaging in more groups, FIND more groups. Expand my horizons! Ah, the days of Yahoo Groups & forums, so easy. So weird.
