...why is update a word br downdate isn't?
Anyway.
1. Hit 1000 day streak in Duolingo (!], which also means that -- given my previous streaks -- I've done more than 2k total days (!!). That's a lot. ...of course, two days later i missed a day, but streak freeze caught that one. Still, I'm likely to lose it st some point.
2. The book I was hate reading? I finished it and kind of wish I hadn't. CW abuse:
( Read more... )
Needless to say, I don't recommend it.
2b. (Or not 2b, that is the question) -- er, I mean, one good thing is that the book has resparked my interest in working on the 50 Shades of Ace project (aka rewriting fsog with sensible characters and an ace protagonist who discovers that she loves kink).
3. I tried listening to the audiobook I have checked out from the library, but the narrator is the same guy that does the version of Watership Down that I utterly adore, to the point of listening to it a ton of times. IF's my default going-to-sleep hook, because soothing narrator and a story I know well that's nicely compartmentalized so it doesn't matter if I drift in and out. And I keep having this brain short listening to this other one *because he's not narrating rabbits aaahhhhh*. I may have to read that book instead of listening, lol.
4. My self-imposed yarn diet (because I have way more yarn than I could ever use) is conflicting with my need buy rainbow yarn. (I have only one rainbow skein and it's gone missing along with the partial shawl. I think the black widows stole it.) Also, someone on rav is making various queer sea creatures for pride season -- octobi, genderflusquid, pridetopus -- and one of the ones is an aceopus, and now I have a mighty need to make one. Though *that* I can scrounge up yarn for (grey white black purple).
5. At what point does feeling like I'm drowning in life crises stop becoming an acknowledgment of stressful reality and start becoming a crutch? Asking for a friend.
6. Mark Harmon is pretty. I've been rewatching NCIS -- not so much a binge as ragged uneven spurts -- and i am very 😍 at Gibbs. Very aesthetically pleasing.
7. There is apparently a new Men In Black movie, starring Thor and the Valkyrie. The trailer makes it look astoundingly stupid. I think I will rewatch the original mib instead.
