Count the Stars Above…

You are MAGIC!

February. This year is off to a rollicking good start, no? Jesus. Fucking. Christ. If I said what I really want to say, I’d be put on a watch list. There are enough news stories in the past week alone about people getting raided and arrested for mouthing off on the internet. I am so fucking exhausted. Anyway. Is it really just a lead-in to the monthly Last.fm stats if it’s 1200-some-odd words? …) We… Keep reading…Count the Stars Above…

Make it through the winter…

Oh hai.

Well it’s January. Which means it’s time for the annual ICE DAM! Just sitting at my desk, hearing the telltale pat-pat-pat of water dripping from the living room window frame. It hasn’t poured out yet, but I’m sure it’ll happen before its cleared. Now the HOA management company is requiring picture or video proof of the leak, or they won’t send anyone out. Like, yes, I’m lying about a fucking ice dam, please send someone… Keep reading…Make it through the winter…

A Year in Review…2025…the Books…

A Year in Books...2025...

The Books!? Apparently. I didn’t start out with a plan to write a year-in-review for the books I read last year. I had read multiple books in a short period of time and decided to make some notes for myself because the progress was so abnormal for me, but nothing I’d call a review. When I hit double digits, I started fleshing out my notes, but didn’t know if I would actually do anything with… Keep reading…A Year in Review…2025…the Books…

A Year in Review…2025…the Music…

Last.fm Day by Day 2025...

I kind of knew the numbers were going to be on the lower end this year, but I didn’t realize how much lower they were going to be. I spent a lot of time sitting in my video game house (FFXIV) listening to in-game music while staring blankly at the internet (or just the wall). I also spent a lot of time falling down Youtube rabbit holes. And Jinx* has been watching more music videos… Keep reading…A Year in Review…2025…the Music…

A Year in Review…2025…

Out with the Snake. In with the Horse.

I first started this draft on December 2nd. It has been a slog to fill this thing out. Why do it if it feels like such a chore? Tradition. Normalcy. Because at least it’s writing something. 2026 is the Year of the Horse. Guess who’s excited? Jinx and her buddies are ready to party. 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 2021 |… Keep reading…A Year in Review…2025…

It’s been so long…

Oh hai.

December. On one hand…HOW. On the other…it feels like it has been thirty years since January and we’re only in the first year of this fucking administration for the love of fucking Christ. It might not be the last day of the month, but it is the last half-baked lead-in to the monthly Last.fm stats of the year. I have struggled so hard with writing anything in any form the last…who the fuck knows how… Keep reading…It’s been so long…
