I wrote a lot of poetry in January. I just didn't do a great job of sharing it on social media. We're changing that now, though. Click over to the blog to read what happened down under!

Weekly update is now live! I've been stuck in a morass, overthinking what my next steps were going to be. Then I realized it was rather simple: just write something.

Wrote a new blog post/short story for the week. No I didn't mix up Anton Chekhov's gun and Ivan Pavlov's dog.

I mixed up Chekhov's gun with a different type of dog. >:)

Okay! Chapter 8 on the story completed! Despite interruptions and loose focus, we’re doing great! Just have…nine…more…to go.

Hrmm.

I may need to put this on hiatus and make it a Christmas present. Otherwise I won’t get anything Octoberish finished in time.

Methinks that weekender obsession quickie was a blessing in more ways than one.

Trying to find some way to make money at-home while I’m fighting #ChronicPain. The challenge is finding something I don’t have to invest more money or time into bc money is always needed:

• I have #IT experience, but no inclination to continue doing IT stuff except for the monthly noodle on a home server.
• I’m a good #CreativeWriter and #TechnicalWriter, but with no shareable experience.
• I have enough gear and enough meme-ability to try being a gaming #ContentCreator, but I feel overwhelmed at the quality and consistency needed to be seen over the quantity of other creators.

Maybe I’ll get irked at myself enough to take another crack at #Programming, or #GuitarBuilding or some other profitable #Woodworking. Still half-heartedly working on getting better at #Drums to keep the music passion alive and poking into other “hobby/careers” to see what’s feasible.

Peeps around me are hoping I eventually tolerate the pain enough to get a normal job again, but my worldview and values have changed so much since this illness took over that I can’t tolerate the idea of wageslaving unless it’s for an ethically positive cause.

All the while, the nagging feeling of “you’re taking too long to decide when you could be doing something,” and the reciprocal feeling of “you could be doing something better/more productive instead of this,” means I should probably be seeing a psych, but the last psych I saw made me stare at a dot for 45 minutes before asking me how I felt…? Psychology Today has messed the profession up.

Oh well, more alienation! How do cynical introverts make friends again? Probably worth a separate post
