I just asked my husband “are you going to buy Galactic Racer and then never play it?” He sighed and said “I’m turning into my dad.”

One year later, and I am once again running the Margaritaville 10k race to alleviate all this fucking stress.

Everything that’s been going on has really done a wonder on my brain to the point I feel super gaslit all the time. But then I tell people about the situation and their complete “what the FUCK” responses always remind me that yes, this IS completely fucked up, and I’m not actually crazy

@jasoncfry.bsky.social Last night I read Owen the first scene in Hunt for the Hydra! He was into it and fell right asleep afterward. So thanks!

We listened to a Halloween playlist today in the car, and Owen’s new favorite song is “Somebody’s Watching Me” by Rockwell.

Having running friends is so fun because you can follow them along on their Ironman tracker and cheer when they finish even though you’re not even there!

Last night I told Owen I wanted to start reading chapter books with him, and suggested we start The Jupiter Pirates by @jasoncfry.bsky.social. “We know the author. He’s cool.” Owen was impressed! 😊

I can have a 20 minute conversation with my mother. The length of conversation means nothing. It’s what is said (or repeated) during it.

It is once again that time of year when I ask the weather gods to please, please make it cooler in the morning. Please. It’s 75 when I go running at 7 am. I’m begging for a temperature that starts with a 6. (Yes, I know I chose this life. Because I don’t want to run/live in the snow.)

Name a non-LotR character who could resist the One Ring My answer to this, as always, is Ivan Votpatril. Evidence: there were people ready and willing to use him as a child to institute a coup and install him as Emperor. His response then, and ever after, was NO THANK YOU.

I hate the social media algorithm for many reasons, but a big one is seeing posts from days/weeks ago about an event that’s already happened. Like, “time for Dragon Con to begin!” three days after it’s officially over.

Home from Dragon Con. I had an amazing time reconnecting with friends and the fandom world. I’m even feeling the itch to start writing again. I’m bummed con is over already, but my cup is full, and I’m very happy to hug all my family again.

Attended a panel about balancing creativity and life as women in the arts. Feeling buoyed knowing that a lot of people quit writing at some point, too.
