Jumped into a D&D campaign for the first time since March w some badass LA nerd friends, new n old.

First impression was launching a gnome shot put style (to safety!)... Also, rolled a crit fail then a nat 20 IMMEDIATELY after.

[ Also mindlessly sketched a double headed axe wielding badger lord ]

The most Hollywood Mexican gig I’ve ever had yet.. a hell of a fun way to jump back into the chaos.

While chatting about horror films, Giger, good memories, etc, KC worked her magic. After recording, I ran errands the rest of the evening with her makeup still on--

Thanks to the masterful KC Mussman and the crew at Monster City Studios, my first voiceover and facial capture gig a few weeks after returning to LA in August was as a Dia de Muertos Calavera for the tequila bar Sinister Sips at Dark Harbor! The most Hollywood Mexican gig I’ve --

Another good update! Sharing some of what everyone who contributed to the GoFundMe helped me replenish, now that I’ve visited familia in AZ and finally got the things out from storage. Here’s pics of most of the books n things, art, and art supplies you helped me get. Thank you!

While visiting AZ, I unearthed my favorite painting created during high school...!
A project about your take on a classic artist or something, so I chose Georgia O'Keeffe. Love her haunting skulls in desertscapes.

Adriana's painting during sophomore or junior year of hugh school for an art project, a desert landscape (I think based off the hellish landscape somewhere in Madagascar actually) and stormy clouds with overdramatic reddish lightning striking behind a dragon skull seemingly floating above it all.

Years like this remind me of that- to reprioritize and change my actions, behaviors, where precious time & energy goes.

Still here. Thanks for the encouragement and support.

Adriana in her $5 replacement bathing suit (because the cool black one with weird green succulent designs on it is fucking gone!), she's holding her towel over the shoulder as it blows in the wind.
She's on the beach and actually swam in it a few weeks back in September because why the hell not - also friends were in town from far away. Black and white photo with ocean in the background

Finally posting this because time is a void. Aug, I last min threw together the thrift store stuff, hair hasn't been trimmed since spring, and just went for it. INFINITELY cooler looking people, creatures, & goblins alike--

Donning the thrift store dress and shoes I acquired during my recent travels, I last minute entered the realm of whimsy, talent, unabashed nerdery and joy- Labyrinth Masquerade. All thanks to the kindness of an amazing friend! Been attending most years since 2019, one of the best experiences in LA.

Adriana posing all goofy at the end of an incredible night at the LOJ Labyrinth Masquerade at the historic Biltmore in DTLA. She's in a long green dress and black heels that are kinda falling apart that she got at thrift stores during her travels overseas.

September was full of great memories. Also saw NIN finally.. The searing pain of my docs shredding my ankles while surviving the pit only added to the experience (rarely go out in my docs this year so I forgot to wear the right socks.. worth iit).

I only took a few photos n pics. Here's some:

Adriana in front of the Kia Forum after the Nine Inch Nails show, her ankles annihilated by her docs. Wear the right socks, yall.

Trent center stage illuminated by dramatic spotlight, echos of his image distorted to the left and right of him projected onto the curtain of fog on the stage at the Nine Inch Nails Peel it Back tour in September of 2025 at the Kia Forum.

A wide shot of Nine inch Nails on stage and the audience in the pit and stands holding their phone lights up, Im sure some actual lighters are being held up by us old school cryptids

Now for some good updates.

As of Aug 8, I finally have a home again in LA. Thanks to your encouragement & support, I survived 2025 and was able to properly re-settle.

Sharing some of the neighborhood creatures Ive seen on walks. Hope they help cleanse your timeline a bit!

Got some pre-Annecy Festival boat-adventures in. Was about to whip it around 360 when one of the only other boats on the entire lake started steering directly towards my craft..!

Pardise.
Immensely grateful for the kindness of friends & strangers, and for somehow surviving relentlessly soul-rending experiences this year. Was so close to giving in to despair, until landing in London and beginning this journey. Thank you.

Some glimpses of my solo exploration of the calm before the storm of Annecy Animation Festival.
What a dream. Full nights of restful sleep, feeling safe at all hours, napping under trees, exploring the expanse of the lake.. A sweeping sense of peace I haven't experienced in what feels like years.

Sunset over Lake Annecy the moon nearly full peaking through clouds. Very cool toned shades dress the sky and mountains.

-- just knew it would be wonderful getting to explore Annecy at all. A surreal, deeply inspiring night meeting some legendary creatives.

Grateful to know kind friends who include me in these events. Thank you. Annecy is over & I'm finally posting my experiences: www.instagram.com/stories/thea...

I left my chanclas in France..
Didn't think I'd be going to wild Annecy Festival castle parties like the one Netflix threw, so the only "fancy event shoes" I packed were my mom's comfy $7 chanclas (and now they're somewhere in Annecy..). Had no idea what to expect--

Adios, Annecy, the countless creative people I was lucky enough to meet, and friends I got to see again all the way out in France!

Been at Annecy International Animation Festival. Nonstop pleasant and memorable experiences with incredible people, old friends and new. It's been unreal.

Dance floor was getting dry, then A Forest started playing. Inevitably drew forth the dark spirits and cryptids from the shadows.
