But did anyone else see
this and think OH HAI, DIEF'S MOM!...?
:D
Exhausting week was exhausting and my head almost exploded TWO DAYS IN A ROW because of some ludicrously unimaginable white privilege in action (with bonus!flounce-and-YAGE on the part of two trustees, even) that totally trumped the whole unimaginable "let's throw the teachers under the bus 'cos they're selfish and greedy and should be grateful to teach our children" thing. So I was really really really looking forward to sleeping in and then working on some ficcish things, except my body apparently hates me and woke me from a sound sleep to full awake-ness at the ungodly hour of 7am. *sigh*
ION I may have a tl;dr personal-ish post in the near(ish) future... Some things have happened and some things have changed and I've been so freaking swamped with commitments I haven't had time to wrap my head around anything. And I really need to, I need to spend some serious quality time just thinking and making sure my head's screwed on straight so I don't freak out or have a mid-life crisis or whatnot. But it's been a long time brewing (since January) and I've actively decided to keep things private so far, apart from some random tweets, but I'm getting closer to being ready to share, I think. Mostly because I think that seeing it on the page will help me understand where I am mentally and emotionally, in the grand scheme of things. :)
ETA: I mean the above in a thinky, philosophical kind of way - things aren't horrible and I'm not at wits' end trying to deal, or anything, it's just that a few things are a lot different now and I'm trying to figure it all out. Don't worry! &hearts
IOON,
pdxscaper and
bheerfan and I are seriously contemplating going to the
Austin City Limits Music Festival in October. Can't make ComicCon this year, and that is a big disappointment, since I won't get to see
themonkeycabal or
thevaliumsofalj or
somedaybitch, but maybe I'll be still be able to swing LA in November. *fingers crossed*
