What are you thinking RIGHT NOW?

^ Same though.

ALSO WELCOME BACK MY PUMBONE.

[it means no worries]

I reckon should start copying and pasting stuff from Skype here

Went outside with a bag of Temptations treats. Could have sworn I heard distant meowing. At a few different times, too.

I know I should go talk to the people who live over there. Problem is, I've been waking up around 5pm and I'm pretty dead when I wake up. But if Sid is in someone's house, I do have time to wait for my sleep schedule to get better.

Goldie's resting his head and chest on my arm right now and I'm wondering how sustainable his sleeping position is, lol.

Hmm, I kind of want to revamp my book idea things but it was never right before. Version one was very naive and kind of, I dunno, wrong somehow. Version two barely even had anything to it and never really got off the ground. I wanna do something actually good with the stuff I've put so much thought into, but I've been going about all of it the wrong way, I think. Need to start fresh, and just go with the flow until I find what I'm looking for.

^ Good luck dude. Tbh I think stories are built just as much from the heart as from the mind, as corny as it sounds. If it doesn't capture your interest and all your idle thoughts then it might not be meant to be. Go out there and recreate it and make something YOU enjoy.

Boy, okay so my bike tire DEFINITELY needs air. I shouldn't need to work that hard to bike two miles and still get passed by several people. lmao

Yeah, the first version I was very passionate about when I was first writing it, but that was back in high school, so the final result wasn't spectacular. So I've been trying to get the spirit of that back, but go in a new direction, so that I can write something that reflects me now and has a better overall product. I think one of the main things is that I've been trying to write something for the wrong demographic--my interests and mindset and subject matter considered, this story should have always been targeted at adolescents and young adults, and I think my biggest failing was that I tried to make the story "grown up" in just about every version, and ultimately the lack of detail put into the political aspects and more complex plot elements left a lot to be desired because of the angle I was coming from, presenting it as a story about a sidekick who was already an adult and was trying to forge her own path and yadda yadda, when in reality my protagonist should have been younger and the tone of the book slightly different and stuff like that. So yeah. I'm rectifying that, but trying not to lose any darkness/maturity that I think works in that kind of setting (gritty heroes are kinda my jam), and perhaps even make it darker and more meaningful than it originally was.

Not liking this clickyness that seems to be forming

Ha! I knew my family knew. My sister just asked me "when are we goonna need to change your pronouns?" and then informed me that my father wanted to ask and was afraid I'd be mad at him for asking, lol.

Well then, happy coming out! Lol

Yep, happy coming out. Glad to know things were positive, though!

If you're talking about what I think you are, I'm not liking it either. Something about it just isn't sitting right with me.

Thanks. I had wondered why they'd not commented because I'm pretty sure they've been aware in some way or another of this for probably as long as I have.

I'm thinking I have an overactive imagination and that those dumped clothes I handed in to the police probably weren't dumped by a murderer or something.
