Writing is like drawing. I spend hours staring at what I've made, trying to figure out if it's balanced and symmetrical and dynamic, and then I can't even tell what I'm looking at.

Sometimes I think to myself, What have I gotten myself into? when I think of everything I agreed to do. Yes, I'll go to X event, Y meeting, Z get-together; yeah, I'll read this fanfic and watch that TV show and play the video game I borrowed; of course I'll join a book club with you, of course I'll finish that piece I said I'd write. The lazy part of me wants to regret it all, but the rest of me is glad I have so much going on in my life with so many great people.
Current to-do list, so I have it written down somewhere:
- read next five chapters of that book
- draw a thing or two
- write (work) and write (fun)
- email people!
- finish the things I said I'd do
- go to things I said I'd go to
- call my cousin!
Phew.

Life update, of sorts. I wrote a little (for fun) today, which is nice because I've had writer's block all month. I had a completely free afternoon today, which helped me hunker down and break free. Also, my mother got a new stove, replacing her broken one, so now everyone can cook there without issue. And lastly, I found myself some new boots. I wear rainboots everywhere outside of work (it's a bad habit, but they're comfortable), so it's nice to now have shoes that were actually meant for trekking everywhere.

Had a… somewhat unpleasant experience at the store today. It’s the first time a stranger ever approached me and my partner about the apparent gender of our shopping preferences. (I wasn’t aware thrift shops had gender.) I… frankly had no idea how to respond, and we left as quickly as possible. Weird day.

You'd think, with all the recent advances in technology, especially in the realm of wireless earbuds, that wired earbuds would no longer mysteriously stop working.

Hopping on a plane in six hours.
In other news, I've been pretty busy this week -- helping sell a house is tough stuff -- but once I get back from this trip, I'll have time to draw and write again. Though I can't promise any more fanfiction for the Ponyfinder campaign. (In case you're not following, my poor foolish kirin got killed. I've never wanted to hug one of my own characters before now.)
I may end up doing an RP with @Props ValRoa and a few other people, though, in which the poor kirin will be alive. Maybe he can get hugs then. And maybe he'll be nicer to his friends.
Oh, and as a self-reminder, I want to sketch some more of our Ponyfinder group. I'd like to draw everyone at least once at some point.
