As described. :)

I miss you lot and hope to be more in touch in 2020.

In other fandom news, I wrote comment-fic in response to reactions to one of Superstition_Hockey's Kinktober vignettes, and ended up batching it as A-game over on A03. (Not gonna lie, I'm inordinately pleased with the line "like retelling a Russian novel with pivot tables" to describe tax prep for a complex family.)

I still harbor hopes of coaxing two old projects across the finish line within the next decade, but of course the Workflowy lengthens exponentially by year, even as I nest more and more things under "next year," "beyond next year," "after we save the republic," "probably not in this lifetime but I can't bear to delete these notes just yet," etc. And at the moment most of my days currently take this shape:

  • work, often straight through lunch

  • gym and errands

  • late dinner + housework + paperwork

  • rehearse music if service or performance is imminent

  • get some dopamine hits via Duolingo (Emerald League is within reach...)

  • fall asleep in hot bath

  • haul self to bed after water cools and continue sleeping there


  • There is so much more on the list, of course, and people to whom I want to take moon cakes and meet up with for happy hour and dance "Zither Belles" with and spend companionable hours weeding/snipping/paddling/folding/etceteraing are not getting any younger or less busy themselves. It is, I recognize, a grand problem to have, and that my horribly lonely childhood so-sorry-for-my-self would be utterly thrilled to be so occupied. There will always be yearning, even when the right choices are made. I get that now.
