2017 Review and 2018 Goals
For 2018:
- One chapter a month on one of my writing projects.
- Accept the things about my body that aren't going to change, and work to change the things that I can.
- Interact with my friends more. I won't keep them if I'm just hiding in my docking alcove all night.
-Learn one song on bass performance quality
-Properly configure my DJ setup and practice one 3 minute routine.
2017 Review and 2018 Goals
Hooboy. 2017 was a wild year. My first full year in Seattle, trying on new pronouns, 3 different orthosona jobs, a surprise visit back to my assembly cradle, buying a house. Fixing that house (still ongoing) and 12 years together with my ✨Plush✨ @mawr. I've gotten a little better at expressing my desires, saying no, and respecting my boundaries enough to enforce them. A little better, but there's room for improvement.
snark; woo

And look how well they worked for you; you've beaten us to it, and we can only be proud we helped."

Orthosona update
I've been struggling to feel fulfilled with my current ortho-job. I have my 40 hours split between two separate locations on opposite ends of Seattle and one of those locations does everything it can to make doing my job as annoying as possible. So I've been looking for a new one. And a few hours ago I got extended an offer for a new one that is going to be so much work, but a chance to really do my Aspect and Attribute well. I hope it will, anyway.
In my perfect world:
I get to build custom gaming computers for people. I'd have a really flexible configurator and a website that would let users see a dynamic preview of their new box as they choose different options. I'd even have options to let customers watch me stream as i worked in my shop cutting custom panels and assembled the hardware.

Stoner engineering dream
So, in my dream, i concocted a new electro-bong. It is based off a aquarium filter, with a wide oval mouthpiece on the back and the connector for the vape cart on top (standard threading). The vapor would pass through internal cooling vanes like a radiator before getting drawn into the water for further cooling, leading to a much stronger hit. I had two pulls in my dream and watched my face slide off in a mirror. Then I had a 3rd. I was completely sober at bed time, too.
