( See them here under the cut. )

me, I am taking a break from working on undercoverfic, a longfic, where I have spent six weeks rewriting and editing approximately the first 18k words, and the first six chapters of twenty eight.

the break in question:

don't worry about it.

that said... it mostly just needs touch-ups and a bit of readjustment here and there; this is what picking out a little of it for the riversmeet reunion taught me. 60-80k words are usually all quality. 100k is when it gets a bit dicey. tmyk.

i have been doing gpose during estelline's heavensward playthrough to pair with this - i need some more for patches, but i might wait until i'm actually in patches to do it. i also need to rehn gpose (not many, perhaps 2-3) and prih gpose (lots! i need to get certain armour and a drk sword for her and also cut her hair to its original, she's gonna be so baby it's gonna be emotional), and lastly amélie doing weird creepy shit for the mandatory echo scene. she is causing problems on purpose.

me: I turn 40 this year, btw
dad: that means I'm an adult now, doesn't it

I didn't have much sympathy for his arrested development - I've felt like an old man for about ten years now. Of course, I also got to do that oldest (presenting female) sibling with four younger male cousins on top of it responsibility dance so who the hell knows what tilted the scales there.

Canada Post might have another strike so I marched out in 4 degree stormy weather to the post box to mail some postcards I wrote like, a month and a week ago (respectively), finally. I did see a lot of nicely flowering trees, a really nice part of spring. And two scottie dogs that looked like they would personally knife me if I approached their owner picking up their doo. 'That's ours! You can't have it!'

Cute though.

Saw the first 10 minutes of Murderbot with my friend Meli until her connection gave up on trying to share itself with a teen boy. We'll try again Sunday at 3 am.

My mom's birthday is tomorrow! She's 67! She's had cancer recently and is currently cancer free right now, so I'm treasuring this birthday.
