... I finished an HR ficlet, but it wasn't the fic I was trying to finish. Hmm.

*Game Grumps voice* 'I fired again. I hit something, but it wasn't what I was going for, so I guess I missed.'

I'm feeling better, but still too under the weather to leave the house, so I'm running virtual errands today & a load of laundry might or might not happen later!

When I take my emergency meds, I tend to have super vivid dreams. I had several this time, but I only remember one: I was trying to write down a story idea, but all I had was a fork & sliced cheese. So I engraved it into the cheese with the tines of the fork. Very unwieldy note-taking method, 2/10.

@thistlearts.bsky.social Hiii, I am very seriously studying Russian swearing & just came across "Хуй там плавал" and I'm lol'ing, what a great expression!! 😂 It reminds me of Swedish "skita i det blåa skåpet" (to shit in the blue cupboard) which means 'to fuck something up, to mess up'. Languages😍🥰

It has come to my attention that there are only 11 (eleven!) fics in the Hollanov 'language kink' tag on AO3?!?!

Excuse me, what.

LRP: I'm so out of it from period pain that it took me a while to realize that there are no eyes that are marching, they're looking towards March. The month March. /o\

Friends, I am sick. 😷 Hope this shit clears out quickly, I want to do stuff! I've been guzzling tea all day so here's hoping some sleep will help too. 🤞

So, I'm reading this HR fic that deals with some serious health stuff, it's a WIP but somehow I thought it was tagged as 'no archive warnings apply' so no MCD. And now, like 20 chapters in, I see that it's CNTW.
... 😬
I'm deeply conflicted about whether I should continue to read. xD

I'm SO sleepy after the job/career fair thingy today, but it was alright! No direct amazing opportunities presented themselves, but existing in openly queer spaces is always a treat. <3

Just saw two (2) gifs of Connor Storrie with slightly longer hair and I have been personally injured by his curls. 🤕

Heated Rivalry peeps! The show will be available in Germany starting February 6, and German sites are calling it "Heißhockey," from "Eishockey" (ice hockey) and "heiß" (hot). I love it. What a cool linguistic move. 😂

I've been waiting on new yarn for my current obsession (another sweater WIP) for a few days now, and I'm NOT being very brave about it lol. The inner toddler is complaining a lot. I feel so... bereft. 😅

I was like, "I'll do things today!" but I've found one of those ecosystem-destroying painful fics. ;_; My crops are watered but by my tears. It's SO GOOD but it hurts lmao

We have an old soviet era joke:
A man comes over to the newspaper kiosk and starts looking through the first page of the morning paper.
The seller asks:
- What are you looking for?
- An obituary.
- Obituaries are on the last page
- The one I'm looking for will be on a first page.

I had a dream that I was washing dishes at my Mom's house and she criticized the "mess" I was making (a few water and soap spills on the counter by the sink). Probably brought to you by the (real) fact that in her old age my Mom has become the kind of person who wipes her sink dry after every use.

Well, clearly I need to rewatch HR episode 5 because IMDB doesn't seem to list Ilya's niece's actress, which means I've got to trawl through the episode credits, because I need an approximate date of birth for her.

*manufactures reasons*

I have reached the crown decreases of the hat I'm knitting for my tiniest cousin-in-law! ( @plutodetective.bsky.social, is that the correct relation?) I'm so excited because this yarn is a delight. The shipping costs once it's done will be less of a delight. xD

I've seen the term "waffle-stomp" around & finally looked up what it means & now I need heaps of brain bleach.

I think if I ever found out about someone doing that in my shower, ending the friendship wouldn't be enough. I'd just straight up commit murder. xD
