in substantially happier news
What have we here?
It is a winner profile!
And now I am going to take a week to not have to generate words every single day, and instead, play video games and cuddle cats and clean out the monstrous teetering pile of stuff on the TiVo and read books and sew things and possibly just lie on the couch and do nothing.
(In more concrete rewards, we went out for dinner tonight and I got parmesan crusted pork loin with a shallot cherry brandy sauce, mashed sweet potatoes, and broccolini, and it was FANTASTIC. I also bought Final Fantasy XV, which had convenient release timing. I have a lot of awkward feelings about the game and will probably continue to have VERY MIXED reactions, but I'm still excited to play it, even as I'm making a very unsure face at myself for a variety of reasons.)
I have a lot of trouble actually rewarding myself for things because I'm perpetually trying to accomplish too much and most of those goals end up at cross-purposes to the simplest ideas for rewards, but we'll see how I do this year. I am determined to give myself nice things that aren't just Stop Yelling At Myself To Get It Done.
