It is a bit late, so I'll be brief. Today, a repair guy came and fixed part of the water heater. This means that next Tuesday (the soonest date available), the gas inspectors will come back and hopefully install our gas meter. The water heater is still old and creepy, but that may be getting fixed ( Read more... )

I think I may be starting to feel better. I _think_ that the magnesium was making me worse. It is supposed to help with glucose transport to muscles, but it may have done the opposite for me. I tried it once before without good results, so I think this is the last time. I was able to walk home from the store without Joel's help, so that is a good ( Read more... )

I don't have cancer! Yay! I wasn't really worried about the splotch on my face, but nonetheless it is good to know that it isn't anything serious. At least, this is what the dermatologist said. I also had a chat with a guy in the cemetery, which was also pleasant. He understood me, which is nice ( Read more... )

All is going along fairly well here, as far as I remember. Today, my arms and legs were all wobbly, and it hurt to clean the windows. Probably by tomorrow, I'll be able to do yoga that requires some arm strength and be fine. I have no idea what is up ( Read more... )

All is well here. I am definitely feeling better. Here are my plans for the new year:

• I am working on this image-streaming technique for improving visualization in one's mind's eye. Right now, when I try to imagine something, I get a very dark and indistinct image for about a second. Sometimes, I can manage it a little longer with something very ( Read more... )

I've been enthusiastically writing a fanfic based on the otome game Seduce Me. Basically, I really liked the characters and parts of the story, but there were other parts that totally didn't work for me. Since I really wanted to see a fanfic with a polyamorous relationship based on the game with characters who were adults and had been adults for ( Read more... )

I don't get a lot of feedback on the Mass Effect fanfic I write, although I do get occasional kudos (which on Archive of Our Own is similar to a "like"). I very rarely get feedback on my podcast, although recently a couple of friends told me that they were enjoying it. Very occasionally, I hear from a stranger, although that feedback has been (so ( Read more... )

The tooth is done! Yay! It seems like it is just fine and feels comfortable in my mouth. The dentist would like to fix two more teeth that have sketchy fillings, and I'm inclined to go along with that, since I know they are in bad shape. He is sending me to get a full mouth x-ray, so I'll need to do that soonish ( Read more... )

I am the kind of person who follows the rules. I take some risks, but they usually aren't big risks and the consequences aren't dangerous or serious. (As far as I remember.) In fiction, I often create characters who are serious, rational, have absolutely no desire to procreate, and don't take crazy chances. Of all the things they are likely to do, ( Read more... )

I'm really having a great time working on writing. It has taken me a long long time to get to the point where I put writing ahead of my other projects, and I'm so glad I have finally made it. I have a couple of plans for upcoming works that will be more accessible than Mass Effect. I'm super excited about them.
