I don’t wanna go to the studio for glazing night actually

If you can find your way to a pottery studio, do that. Wheelthrowing will get you out of your head but hand building is great too if the pace feels more appealing. Importantly, potters tend to be a little odd and very gentle, and not many men.

I am awake, I need another hour if not two, but my body has decided to start dreaming rampantly after a decade or more of absolutely not doing that, so I wake feeling even more un-rested than I used to

Exciting new development in ‘my nervous system randomly shifted six months ago’: 🌟dreams🌟. I now have them. I’ve had (or remembered) more dreams in the last 4 weeks than I had in the previous 4 years, and it’s not close.

Fully slept for two hours during the day, which I never, ever do… mostly because whenever I try to nap I feel horrendous for the rest of the day. Could be worse today.

Today in the studio: trimmed and handled 4 mugs, very loosely wedged some reclaim, set extra handles in a damp box. Wrapped the other pots I’m too tired to get to. Now: lie down.

My symptoms in general differ but the muscle stuff specifically, like from gardening or whatever, that’s *always* 2 days. Before ME, it was the next day. Go easy x

Do you know how many bags of clay I could’ve bought with the cost of these two appts and the taxis to the latter

Was just talking about getting a Covid booster over the next week and instantly gotten into an uber where the driver has a gnarly cough 😳

He is a very jolly man and I wonder if he is like a secret Dexter and this is how he maintains an otherwise stable and legal life.

Today I had therapy which my body vehemently objected to for the entire time, and then I let a man put about 65 needles in my back/neck/shoulders so I hope your day has been better than mine.

Anyone found a way of getting out of a medication review? I’ve managed to dodge them until now but my good GP left. I don’t want to change anything but I get a (very small) benzo prescription so I can’t just ignore them, but I have absolutely no intention of putting myself through a new person.

I’ve enjoyed all the Outlook pods but I wonder if Pacers fans know how lucky they are to have Caitlin Cooper covering their team, she smoked the rest of the guests so far

Today I made three mugs and two little cups, and just when I was thinking about one of the cups as my favourite, I stamped on the wheel pedal and it flew across the room and became a pancake 🙂

At one point I was (briefly) throwing with a metal rib on the outside and a wooden tool on the inside and when it worked I did feel a genuine sense of achievement, because that shit is hard as anything, not being able to feel either side at all

Late to the party but I used That Grinding Paste on a lidded jar for the first time and holy shit it’s good stuff! I had a bit of a janky fit and now it’s smooth as anything #pottery

Yesterday me inexplicably chose not to wire my spoon rests off the bat, so today me can’t get them to budge and will need to wait for them to dry further and pop off. At which point any trimming required is going to be a monumental pain in the ass. Why, yesterday me, why?

Cancelled my dentist appointment AGAIN. They cancel, I cancel, they cancel, I cancel. I need a half good body day and a half good mind day at once and I am now overdue about 8 months for a checkup & my clean. Being disabled is really shit.

I have no inner voice (occasionally there’s a random sentence but it’s unusual) and aphantasia. Your heads sound so busy.

Ice crackle is the obvious choice. Too obvious? Icy crackle? Glacial crackle? Crackled something? Blue in there maybe?

My other crackle glaze is coming along. I need to iron out the thickness (left lid has some serious pinholes, too thick) but I think it’s gonna work just fine. It needs a name!

I’ve trimmed (some of) the hedge. I’ve done like 3/4 of a job, which is so much better for my body, but previously would’ve been very difficult for me; I want to do the best I can all the time. But it’s good enough. Good shit, self.

It needs a cleaner application but I’m liking my snowflake crackle. I created the little dipped lids specifically to accommodate a thicker application there. Chemistry is magic.
