Welp. Here we are again. Another year on the books. Another year watching the world burn while people just keep hucking 55-gallon drums of fuel onto the festering inferno. I try really hard to not get lost in the abyss of misery and despair, but PEOPLE DO NOT MAKE IT EASY. I keep trying to filter down the never-ending bombardment of awful, but short of never accessing the internet or exposing myself to other people,…

Week 91… December. I finished FFXIV: Endwalker Hoo boy. I have feelings. I cried. As much as I am capable of crying since Zoloft killed my ability to do so. But Jeezy Creezy. EMOTIONS and LOTS OF THEM. What’s next for this story? Who the fuck knows? The the meantime, we’ll check in with the Last.fm stats. — Top 10 Most Played Artists for November 2021… 1.)

Week 88…?…89…?…??? Whatever it’s November 30th. We have two more days to get through this week and then we’re on vacation for ten days. We were supposed to be on vacation the whole week of Thanksgiving, but the launch of Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker got delayed by two weeks so here we are. In the meantime it’s just listening to questionable playlists on repeat and indulging Basil with all his latest WHATIF-ing. He seems to…

Hurtling towards the end of October and Week 83?…84? We turned off the air conditioning for the last time on October 10th and turned on the furnace for the first time on October 25th. Air conditioning to furnace in two weeks. My sinuses are already protesting the dry air in the mornings—cruddy and inflamed and…colorful. FNEH. I had things planned to write but it’s four-something in the morning and sleep ain’t happening and fuck if…

It is 80-some-odd-fucking degrees. We had to turn the A/C back on because it was humid and gross in the house. It’s September 30th. In Minnesota. Snow in April is normal. Air conditioning at the end of September is not. Week 80. FNEH. We had two separate four-day weekends in September. Bob took an extra day for Labor Day and then Friday/Monday for the weekend of our anniversary. The Friday of that weekend we actually…

  R: If [Ladyhawke] happened to us, we’d be a penguin and a bear. S:      — Way back in the beginning of our relationship we spent a lot of time just watching movies. (And also pausing a lot of movies to make out for awhile because new relationship, wild hormones, yadda, yadda, yadda.) We don’t watch nearly as many movies as we used to. (Nor do we stop them to make out all the…
