I'm working on my fic for

fallingforyoufallexchange! I'm also studying a lot this weekend because I have four tests this week so I don't have that much time to create, but I'm making the most of it. Thankfully, spring break here is getting closer.

Age 18+ fest

summerofthe69 closes tomorrow evening! I didn't quite finish my second offering on time for the fest proper, so I posted a glorified outline for the final theme of "Failed 69" 😂

On the plus side, I'm still keeping up with my homework for my latest attempt at college! (All of two weeks into this semester, and may I just say about the amount I've had to do so far: Oof!)

I've also finished the rough draft of one of my fics for

pokepodproject, and have a lot of the details nailed down for the second. Fingers crossed I'll finish those on time to also submit a treat!

You've really accomplished a lot. \o/

summerofthe69 is fun to watch because of the rolling themes.

Thanks 😊 Honestly, the themes are a whole lot of fun! I feel like they really add something special to the fest.

They really do. With a longer fest, I think the regular change of targets helps maintain interest.

>> What are you working on? What have you finished? What do you need encouragement on? <<

Today we went to the Broomcorn Festival, and I posted the event report from that.

Yesterday I gathered a huge amount of marigold seeds.

>> Are there any cool events or challenges happening that you want to hype? <<

summerofthe69 ends on the evening of September 6. It's a good time to drop by and read the fills if you're into that.

>> What do you just want to talk about? <<

I found a few little cucumbers after I thought those vines were done. Also, moths are visiting my sunflowers in the evenings! :D

>> What have you been watching or reading? <<

Watching: Miraculous Ladybug.

Reading: We just finished The Young Forever Cookbook.

Still watering. It's been bone-dry here except for a mocking little dribble the other night. :/

Oof, I know that feeling. I drove through a downpour after work on Wednesday but it didn't QUITE reach my house, it definitely feels like a prank from nature!

Yeah, I've had that happen. It's maddening to get the disadvantages of rain without the advantages.

Still drawing every day! I spent a lot of effort yesterday in particular on my drawing and it didn't turn out as good as I wanted, which is kind of a bummer, so I'm glad I have the daily drawing goal. Even when I'm not happy with the drawing itself I can still be happy I'm meeting the goal.

Setting up stuff for my house, coordinating a local electrician who's hard to get a hold of with solar panel installers to make sure I can have everyone get their work done and also have everything up to code... It's boring and time consuming but it's important!

BTW, happy birthday!

Thank you! It's been a lovely day! \o/

Good job drawing every day!! I've been in a block, I need to get back on it.

Finally spinning up the creative engine again! Been working on some kinktober stuff writing-wise and getting back into sketching and learning drawing-wise.

Saw this yt video last week about prioritizing learning, so I went sky high with a list of things I'd like to learn and I'm getting excited for all that's ahead of me. There's gotta be more to life than wincing under the flailings of idiot kings and I'm gonna fuckin find it.

I put my mind to learning crochet and relearning how to code this year and I've made a lot of crochet pieces and coded a few websites this past month. I'm all for learning new stuff, especially to spite the 1%. :D

Back on my comicking bullshit. I'm rusty and trying to remember my old techniques. It's so fun learning how to draw comics, it's very freeing for the mind!

Otherwise I am just reflecting on job stuff and figuring out my work/life balance.

Important med shit has been achieved

I pulled a muscle in my shoulder on Thursday, so I've been suffering. I'm home alone for a few weeks, which means I get to monopolize the living room and the television.

Working on stuff for https://prompts-dealt.tumblr.com/

Posted part 1 of the sketches for my Story Sparks cards https://www.silversspace.com/2025/09/story-sparks-cards-sketches-part-1/

Measured and labeled a whole bunch of our tablecloths. Mom's been meaning to do it for ages, because some are too small for our dining table (I number I bought for a card-sized table when I had an apartment). Found one I didn't even know we had.

Been watching the various Mike Holmes shows (Holmes on Homes, Holmes Inspection, etc) on the Homeful channel (it's on Tubi, Pluto, Roku, and more) because they're doing his shows all month

Photographed ***80*** spreads with the Jack-'O-Lantern tarot deck (between 1 and 6 cards each)

I've been working on my website for smallweb. It's mostly been reorganizing and cleaning up code so far, but I have some sketches for a new index page design. I also made some buttons to link to the community.

I... have been eaten. By Dragon Age Veilguard, finally, and KPop Demon Hunters. So, very little creativity has gone on. But, still trying today.

I'm still working on long standing projects, not getting anywhere fast but I am looking forward to the return of

spook_me, a halloween challenge

I've been doing lots of basic chores and cooking at home.

I was doing quite a lot at work so I haven't had that much energy to make things. I'm planning on making a chocolate tofu pie this weekend and today I made chicken broth & schmaltz with saved up chicken skin. I still need to render more fat out of the skin but I'll get almost 2 big jars of chicken broth plus a smaller jar of smaltz once I'm done.

Edited 2025-09-07 05:28 (UTC)

I made some icons and headers for The Matrix and Neon Genesis Evangelion.

I also have a fanfic worm in my brain for a Jeff/Britta Community fic that I could use encouragement on because I haven't written fic since 2015 and I'm scared. lmao

Speaking of, I do want to hype that I made a Community community!

communitytv

I plan on rereading my favorite novel "Observatory Mansions" very soon!

I recently went to a house party I didn't really want to go to, and had a lot of fun! :P
