I had my third therapy session today and came out feeling drained and headachey. We spoke about pressure and how my twenties have been and about how my anxiety and religious beliefs can struggle to rub along together. My therapist was very clear about the pressure, telling me I'm holding myself to a too-high standard. It felt good to talk about it ( Read more... ) -

Urgh, insomnia. Which means I can't sleep unless I do something productive, which means lost sleep as I have to be on the move by ten, which means I'll be tired and grumpy, which means I'll be unable to do my job properly tomorrow.
I honestly can't relax unless I'm doing something productive these days; the inability to relax is something that ( Read more... ) -

I got sworn at by a visitor at work the other day. My first official round of verbal abuse - awesome. I took great delight in holding the visitor's eyes until he was out of sight and then we reported him to management. I wasn't even shaken and was proud of myself for how quickly I got over it. I used to hate getting yelled at by visitors because ( Read more... ) -

It's my Check Please anniversary! S'wawesome! *blows party popper* I also have the day off, so double-s'wawesome!
I've decided to celebrate by...taking it easy. I came into work yesterday feeling a little overwhelmed and was scribbling it all down in my diary before shift started. I think I've been rushing myself too much recently; I wake up in the ( Read more... ) -

So for the first time in ages tomorrow, I'm going to a church-service. A Mormon one. Haha... *sweats* A friend from work who is leaving this coming week invited me to come along with her after a conversation about our churches and as I have the weekend off, I asked if I could go with her and spend a bit of time with her outside work before she ( Read more... ) -
Writerly advice required
So a few months ago, I started working on a fic with the following summary:
There have been many things that Bitty’s found strange and new about being at Samwell. The boys’ unconditional, limitless acceptance of him for exactly who he is; John Johnson’s random murmurings about stuff he’s thought about in the crease; and the fact that Jack, after ( Read more... ) -
Oh dear.
So I spent the afternoon writing a Check Please/Doctor Who fanfiction and now I think I have to scrap half of it because it's reaching a little too much. I don't know how to describe it, but it feels a little too specific and like I'm trying to hard to merge the two universes together. By no means I consider it wasted time, but I feel it's one of ( Read more... ) -
I am really starting to lose faith in Mofftiss
Apparently, Moffat and Gatiss did a Q&A on Tumblr today regarding Sherlock and The Game Is Now. Besides the sheer arrogance in the tone of their answers (like, dudes, come on, a little politeness goes a long way, you could at least say thankyou when people state how much they love the show in their questions) their response to one question over ( Read more... ) -

Happy July, everybody. And Happy 4th July to all my American friends; hope you have fun.
I've had a busy month celebrating my 28th birthday (late twenties, eeeek!), joining a new gym that's just around the corner, and trying to get a hold of the massive pile of fanfiction that's just snuck up on me, Sherlock, Check Please and Doctor Who-related. I'm ( Read more... ) -
Brace yourselves for this, guys...
Last night I went to my early birthday party (my birthday's not until next week but I'll be at home for it) and it was a Benedict Cumberbatch-themed party. Ergo, nearly everyone (save myself and two of my friends) came dressed as Cumberbatch characters. I did bring cookies though, so I was a Cumbercookie as part of a Cumberbatch. ^_^
Yeah, you read ( Read more... )
