51 seconds and I grinned for almost that many minutes after. I can't wait!

Reading the BTS story has me watching older videos (like pre-2013 old) and now my algo keeps feeding me random BangtanBombs...it's so much fun! I remember binge watching these when I first found BTS and they mean more now that I know who everyone is... 💜

There's a quote in the BTS book from V about them all being a little ridiculous and feral as trainees... I'm not sure much has changed...

I haven't been able to write since the weekend before the BTS concerts (Baltimore). I've been stuck. After a massage this morning, I realized the writers block is because I had the characters doing something very out of character. I've spent the last hour rewriting and it feels so so good. 😭💜😭

I walked out of a 10 hr day to find an RM photocard on the window of my car. Guess the BTS logo on my car helps ARMY find me...and now I want to find them and make friends 😭

I finished section one including watching the linked videos (thanks to people sharing links). And I realized how many of these original blogs, I never saw and now get to enjoy.

Since it's now dark in the morning, I'm working on a 'Move It' playlist to inspire me to move (dance, wiggle, bounce, etc) in the morning. Figured I'd share for anyone else who needs morning energy... music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I do really really love the LA D4 opening outfits. They're probably my second favorite...

We couldn't get to our usual trail today, so we headed to a different area of the park. It was still pretty amazing, especially as we were the only ones on the trail. #FridayForestbathing

A dirt path winds through a wooded park. The trees are all shades of brown and green.

Blue sky peeks through verigated green tree tops.

A low-water creek runs through the woods.

A tree has a halllowed out base - at one small spot, you can see all the way through.

I'm taking a Korean class through our local college and I finally FINALLY understand how to say (and hear) ㅓand ㅡ as well as the differences between doubled and aspirated consonants. Having a teacher to offer immediate corrections has been so helpful.

tendyl 🌌 @tendyl.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

This week has been hell*. So we hit the forest early. We're also gping back on Friday. *Like bad enough I'm not sure I'll be watching the replays 😞

Water spills over a small dam of rocks in a shallow river see through a break in pale green trees.

We finally got back out! It's obvious to me that we haven't had a ton of rain... I'm also starting to see signs of the leaves turning. #FridayForestbathing

A small stream of water flows under a tunnel in a stone wall and over rocks. Green bushes line the sides of the rocks.

My amazing lunch...prompted by a fuzzy mental memory of some character in a story I love making lemon ricotta pancakes. Maybe later today when the anesthesia fully wears off, I'll remember which one...

Top left plate - maple syrup glazed bacon, top right plate pumpkin donut holes, and bottom plate is lemon ricotta pancakes with lemon curd and fresh strawberries

I am idiot. I should not try to read the book about Korean cooking when I haven't had a solid meal in ~36 hrs*. Bad idea. VERY bad idea.

My world is a chaotic mess (in bad ways) right now. So I'm crocheting as meditation. This is for oldest. When I told her it was JK/Yoongi coded, she grinned and declared they have good taste.

I know I need to sleep. But I'm gonna need a bit to process LA D4 first.... - their stylists need a raise - this show never gets old - FYA/Fire is 🔥 - Whalian 52 & Spring Day?!?! My heart... - Ending ments? gawds. Now I need more kleenex...

To my beloved, thank you for 25 amazing years together. And now, more than even, I appreciate how you support me in doing the things I love. (aka staying up until unglodly hours for tonight's concert _after_ going out for our decadent anniversary dinner ❤️)

Migraines suck. ARMY who posted "best moments" shorts from D2 are saving me. And now...maybe 12 hrs of sleep will help.

tendyl 🌌 @tendyl.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

May everyone who is streaming the show tonight have an amazing time. I look forward to your thoughts so I know what to look out for during the replay. 😉💜

Made good use of the 16 hrs driving to/from a family funeral to introduce medchins to BTS' discography...from the beginning. We got thru to MotS:7 (I had to do more than one replay of a song). It made for a great drive.

Sometimes what you need most is an escape...

Despite travelling to see family, we still managed to get in a nature walk. #FridayForestbathing

Arirang is saving my sanity. Closely followed by @krystara.bsky.social 's comfort playlist. I desperately need joy and destress - please drop your fav Tannie video, short, reel, gif, pic, etc that you go to when everything is hell.

I see that when I finally get to catch up, there will be some amazing surprise songs to watch. I'm so happy for everyone who got to see them live and look forward to hearing your screams and voices singing along.

the thai place said this is jasmine rice pudding. it looks nothing like any rice pudding I'm used to and I don't care because it's amazing.

a tiny grey bowl (no bigger than a spoon) sits half eaten - there is a white later and a darker creamy yellow layer. pudding? maybe? amazing. yes.

I will probably have limited interactions over the next month. During which: eldest starts colllege, 2 day class on new finance software, I start Korean class, family funeral (5 day trip), youngest starts school, wedding anniversary, and a second upper endoscopy. Pleasw take care of yourselves 💜

And the last thing I needed was to somehow tweak my back and end up in constant low-level pain plus muscle spasms/cramps with severe pain when I try to sit or stand or bend or move wrong. 😞

After having sat with this for a few days, I have thoughts (fair warning is long): Yes, I'm disappointed in RM and J-Hope for attending the cb concert. I accept they may not have known his history - foreign news is weird in what it reports about the USA. I hope they learn and do better.

tendyl 🌌 @tendyl.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Desperately needed this today. I went back to work today after the concerts & everything - almost cried twice. So we tried a completely different trail and found a waterfall.

Dirt path with stones and tree roots climbs between bushes and small trees in many shades of green.

A small stream of water is just visible flowing between several grey rocks.

Water falls down several, grey step-like stones and into a shallow pool of water.

Water cascades down a shelf of rocks into a stony pool of water and flows past the viewer The rocks are framed by green trees.

Random Baltimore Concert thoughts: - us army don't know how to do fan sign projects* - the wait and service staff were super impressed by how nice, chill, and friendly everyone was - several locals on the trains were also impressed - I didn't want either day to end

Not many more pictures from Baltimore D2. We were so loud! Especially for Haruman and Best of Me. I have _no_ voice. (The Jimin 'ment pic is for my youngest...she asked for a good pic or "her boi")

D2 seats - up in 200s. Looking down at middle 'front' (aka where they face to do the we are bts)

Ending 'ment. Small Bang5an, but biiiig JK and Jimin on screen.

I have 3 pics (no, not posting the one of the fam). I was to busy jumping, screaming, and singing my heart out.

Okay, Universe - I see the NWS Thunderstorm Warning for Baltimore. And, you are NOT doing this to all the ARMy in town for the concert. No. Nope. Not. Kay?

Thankfully the rain held off until we got home. We did build a rock tower to send good wishes for safe & fun concerts this week. #FridayForestbathing

Looking upriver - brown water, green trees on the bank, & syorm clouds. The rain held off until we left.

Seven stones are stacked on top each other on another rock at the exge of the water.

ARIH plus leftover bulgogi plus homemade kimchi = amazing back up meal. Comfort food for yet another 9+ hr day. I'm also being grateful that if I chop it small enough, I can eat all of this! Progress!

Empty ARIH bulgogi truffle noodle package rests on a grey marble counter next to a bowl of cooked noddles topped with bulgogi and kimchi.
