Small Pleasures

I had to unpack about a box of my books that were tucked away for a long while so my parents could have my copy of Narnia for reference, and I feel suddenly very happy to have small stacks of books around my room again.

When Your Bedroom is also Your Studio

 As I prepared to write this, I realized it has been six months since my last post.  That brought a few thoughts immediately, the main one being "what am I supposed to say?"  "Should I apologize?"  "Do I even post here?"  Well, here's the thing: I don't know how long I'll keep this blog going.  Now, before any questions may arise, that doesn't mean I will no longer be online or any of that! But, I feel a bit like I've outgrown this blog.  Over the past six or seven months, I've been slowly setting up another blog on Wordpress that may or may not one day go public.

Doubly so if I get to dress up with friends and we don't even do that much, we just kinda hang out while going down one or two streets and that's it.  Thanksgiving: I bet you that some people are already planning their Thanksgiving plans. (I am not one of them, but I bet they're out there. *not-quite-ominous music plays*)  Inktober: The newly released an...

9 x 2 = 18

 One of those odd small pleasures I have in daily life, is when the time or date end up appearing like a form of a math problem or equation.  For example, the way we write dates here in the U.S. month/day/year causes today to appear as 'Nine times Two equals Eighteen'.  An odd and perhaps quite small pleasure.  But I enjoy it just the same.
