The use of “urged” is so funny to me.

So I just saw a picture of him from the front, and he does not look like Mads Mikkelsen at all. But his side profile, somehow, is uncanny.
So in our orchestra, there is a violist who looks like Mads Mikkelsen and whenever we (the chorus) aren’t singing, I like to watch him and imagine it’s Mads Mikkelsen’s James Bond character playing the viola.

I’m jealous. I want to write one of the best pilots of all time too. 😤

To the man who was sitting in the front-ish row at tonight’s concert and was visibly moved by the music from beginning to end, just know that I appreciate you so much and was crying tears of joy as I left the stage because of how much you enjoyed our performance.

Trying to come up with a riveting story about a ballet company that also depicts ballet company life accurately (i.e. not Black Swan) is turning out to be not the easiest thing on the planet…

So I took some ballet classes again last night and guess which ballet we learnt excerpts from?
Giselle. The same one I’m featuring in my ballet script.
I think this whole thing might possibly be meant to be.

Happy World Opera Day, everyone. 🎶
This is why I do it. This is why I want to spend an obscene amount of money on music school and auditions, receive thousands of rejections, but still persevere and work my way up the ranks of the opera world. So I can perform onstage wearing fucking JEANS. 🫠

Does anyone have any writing-related work they need done? Because I can do it. I’m fast and reliable like an internet service. I also really need money. If any of that appeals to you, feel free to DM me!

Tried writing a scene that I thought would be really tense and eerie, but guess what, guys! Turns out the whole idea was just stupid. I’m so silly. 😄

It’s going to be in the mid-to-low 60s for the rest of the week and next week will dip into the 50s. And I know you’re thinking “yeah, Ashleyn, this happens every year”, but I live in Tennessee and I’d forgotten what cold felt like, so I’m excited as fuck. 🍁🍂

Someone (bless their heart) asked me if I was a professional dancer. They made my night.
I might take a ballet class tonight. No one needs to know this, but I thought I’d announce it anyway.

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

A part of autism that no one talks about is spending literal days debating whether or not to send a certain email because you don’t know enough about social shit to tell if it’ll make things weird or not.

So I just tried to do this again and when I went to pour out the water that I cooked the potatoes in into the sink, I dumped all the potatoes along with it. Some of them went down the drain. Jesus, take me now. I’m ready to go.
I’m so sick of life that I’m going to boil some potatoes in the microwave and eat them in my bed instead of writing or being productive.

I was so nervous when I saw there was a protest planned in a small, red town not far from me, but apparently, around 500 people showed up. I’m proud of my county.

Day 15 (I think) off my meds. I hate everything. I doubt things shall improve any time soon. I’m manic, but have been mainly channeling it into learning Russian at an inhuman speed. What is life anymore?
