Hey, I hope today treats you kindly. I know things have been hard for a lot of folks around here (myself included), so I wanted to take a moment and say that you are worth the time and attention that others put into you.

Yes, you.

And you too.

Yup you also. ❤️

Take care of yourself today.
The world can be a scary, frightening, and cruel place. I know that.
If you're scared or hurting, if you're upset or afraid, I see you. Your feelings are real. Your emotions are valid. You matter. You make a difference in the world just by being here, by living, by dreaming, by being in the world. Your presence shapes the world around you, even if you can't always see how.
Always move towards the best and truest you, and trust that others see the work you're doing.

Hey, do what you need to do to stay safe and warm and good today. You matter, your health (physical and mental) and safety matter. Some quick reminders:
- try to keep a snack on hand
- make sure you eat real food too
- stay hydrated
- make sure you get enough sleep
- try to take a walk outside if you can

Thoughts about the look I present 

Wearing tights (or in today's case socks that extend past the line of my skirt) definitely helps with feeling less awkward out in public. I don't feel like I'm exposed.

The belt helps too - I don't feel like I'm venturing forth into the world with none of the things I'm used to carrying on me (keys, wallet, phone).

All of these things feel good and _right_. And I'm grateful for those who have helped me understand this part of me.

I'm gonna try to write and do a number of other things this afternoon, brain cooperating of course. I should try to make progress where I can, but right now my brain is sitting here going "oh no, you've got energy but we're not going to let you remember what you were supposed to be working on or focus on the things you can remember." :P

Today's been nice so far. Went out in a new skirt and belt I picked up yesterday. Received a number of pleasant comments and am feeling good about my choices. I think the best comments were "you look a little bit like an elf" and "you look like you're dressed about how someone on venus would be." Both are quite flattering.

Prerelease Energy 

Here's the positives of running the prerelease events: Energy. Lots of people very excited about the new set. There's always a sense of wonder and discovery and it's nice to be around people feeling that, even if it is just packs of cardboard. :P

*happy sigh* There's water on the ground, there's a nip in the air, and a good and dear friend is returning in less than a day from a 3 month trip home. I'm pretty darn good this evening. <3

Self Care Thoughts (asking for input) 

It's about time for me to get a hair cut. I think I'd like to do another round of dying the hair too, but I'm not sure what I should do with it this time around. I very much like leaving my hair down, and I think I like having bangs...so, if folks have met me IRL and have thoughts about what they think would look good, I would love to hear them!

I didn't manage to get to some of the writing and design work I wanted to get done, but there's still Monday this week to work on things like that if I'm lucky.

This weekend was a mix of ups and downs, thankfully more ups than downs. Saturday was work + helping @IceWeasel with a bookshelf (something we've been meaning to do for a couple of weeks now). That wore me out and meant I wasn't available to be with friends Saturday night for anything, which I was a bit bummed out by.

Sunday was a lovely morning with Mistress @literorrery, her wife, and my woozle talking and making french toast. Plus I got to see a fellow pet @adeptomega and play some skyrim!

Woke up to Mistress @literorrery asking me if I wanted to go to breakfast at Jewelbox with her and @ElectricKeet.

Went home afterwords and woke up @IceWeasel and he wanted breakfast too.....so Jewelbox again! *snrk*

I'm running the tabletop #RPG segment of the Extra Life fundraising marathon. Can I get a boost to help kids?

Actually on the subject of tights...anyone know a good place to go to get them? I'd hit up Mishu but I'm 99% sure they don't carry them, and I'd rather give a local company money than the amazons.

Hmm, more note to self: it's getting chilly out. Mayhaps I should invest in a few pairs of tights for when I want to go out in skirts.

Oops! I might have accidentally forgotten to schedule coverage for an employee on vacation again. Oh well guess I'm working till 9 PM!

=x.x=

Note to Self: Stop doing that silly bunny. :P

Any good recommendations for a Mastodon client for the iPad? Amaroq doesn't seem to be showing up there.

*headdesk* 

I just had a customer walk about 20ft into the store, look at me over one of the board games racks, and ask me if we have any board games. >.<
