Oh Hi

Imagine that said like Mark in The Room. And if you haven't seen that movie, watch it with the Rifftrax audio because ho boy you're in for a ride.

I know I disappeared again. My apologies. I'm still stunningly bad at social. Even in real life, my only friends are people who are either okay with my long silence, or are more than willing to nag their way into my life.

In the three years since I last posted, I bought my first house and have gotten REALLY into knitting. I also went to Poland and Lithuania, including seeing Auschwitz. Sadly my writer's block is still a shithead; I was attending a few writer's meet-ups but honestly I'm just so fucking tired after work that I don't have the energy for writing. Poor novels.

At any rate, I figured I would post as I was looking through other journal entries to talk about in therapy. To the shock of absolutely anyone who has known me all of these years, I have a major self-esteem and... Shit, what's the word. Insecurity? Don't know. At any rate, I got problems and we're trying to tackle them.

I might share photos of my knitting. Is that a thing people do here? Whatever. I shall MAKE IT A THING. *powermad laugh*

But I need to go make pierogi first because 'tis the season.

Hope you've all been well. Tschuess.

What Do I even Title This, Help

What the hell-ass is this making me anxious for, ANYWAY.

So last year I went to a few writing Meetups, and was surprised when people showed interest in Friendship in Winter. As I posted on FB, I really wasn't expected anyone to be interested in a novel about two deeply messed up people.

So instead of AG, I've been working on that when I do get the muse, because AG and I aren't speaking to each other right now. It's not AG, it's me: untreated ADHD has turned that thing into a monstrosity and I really need to just sit down and figure out the plot and subplots. Friendship in Winter is so much easier because there really ISN'T a plot. It's just two mentally ill people trying to survive.

I almost started a paragraph with "So" again, sheesh. Here's the rewritten bath scene in the beginning of FIW. TW for depression I guess? It's Terry and Kader, don't know what to tell you.

( Oops, we ruined the public bath )
