So basic but my dogs, all dogs, everyone's dogs! I was just out visiting my mom after some medical stuff and her 1 year old dog was the savior of all my days. And now I'm back with my two pups and it's just impossible to stay in a dark place with their light in the world.

Currently listening to Dua Lipa with the volume up high. Reminding myself that Mercury Retrograde ends soon. I know our problems aren't coming from the stars, but I'm ready for a new season to arrive.

Getting reacquainted with my creative side. I’ve put my writing to the side since I got a new job, but I’m carving out more time to return to it. Also, just hanging with my friends on Discord

As always, BOOKS!! Also, the mess on House of the Dragon. All I’ll say is Ser Harwin Strong. A MAN.
