At least some of y'all are writing. I'm still stuck in paralysis.

I guess California has remembered fall exists. Finally. I hate summer.

Ooo, I love purple! It’s one of my new fav colors.

Technically they're pastel lavender but that's okay. They work well.

The splitter I use to charge my phone and earbuds pretty much crapped out on me - my phone won't charge but my earbuds will.

I've ordered a new one (well really two cause it's a two pack) and they'll be here sometime this afternoon. And they're purple (my favorite color).

Not mine. But I think something must be in the air.

Anyone else been having weird dreams this week or is that just me?

Ouch. I know how Kimmi must feel.

I lost three people in the same two weeks this year - my grandma at the end of February (she was 107 and no, not an exaggeration).

Plus my friend (he was only 35 n had health problems) and the local artistic director/choreographer for our local ballet (whom I loved) the next week.

Not Lion too...that makes four people I liked/cared about/loved I've lost this year. Gonna be too quiet here now without him. To say 2026 has broken me would be an understatement.

There's a very special place in hell for migraines. Thankfully it's gone now but...yeah. Not fun.

I've managed a few short things but they're so short they probably wouldn't even fit in micro...but at least I'm not as paralyzed now, so there's that.

There's a very special place in hell for writer's paralysis (basically being too tongue-tied to write even though you have ideas).

Thanks y'all. And to think he n I met cause I'd discovered Tom Petty.

My boyfriend and I will have been together for two years on September 1. Doesn't feel like it's been that long - probably cause it feels like I've known him forever.

Neither have I – died, I mean.

Nice to see Elyse back on her barstool!

I actually go by Lys (pronounced like liss) now but thank you.

Rediscovering old loves is a real thing by the way (and no, not Drew).

No, I haven't died. Real life decided to get in the way. Again.

No, I haven't died, just been going through a lot - good and bad.

I couldn't sleep on Wednesday night (on top of my wifi being weird) so I started writing something. Hopefully I can post it but if not, I'll try to think up something I can in the future.

I found an old poem I wrote when I was seventeen but I can't post it here - it wouldn't fit.

Oh, yeah, my boyfriend and I celebrated one year together on September 1.

Still feels like I've known him longer than that though.

I definitely have a new muse...or I would if I wasn't so tongue tied over him. Like I can talk about him just fine but writing...yeah...that's different.

Quote by JamesLlewellyn

Actually, Elyse, that sounds like a pretty good premise for a story!

...that's not wrong. I'll keep that in mind.

Autocorrect tried to screw with me last night. I fixed it, of course, but had I not, I would've sent I go where my nudes take me instead of I go where my muses take me.

Okay, but why is Anson Mount so hot? Just to make me crazy?

I sit corrected. I might actually have something I can post here.

I don’t have a signature. I’m getting page not found a lot.

Same. Wonder if there's a glitch or something.

Is anyone else having problems changing their signature or user title? Cause when I try, the page doesnt exist.

Thank you everyone.

My mind is full of half-formed ideas for things I probably can't post here but I haven't the focus to actually find out.

Dear heart; why them?

No, I haven't died. I just sort of...forgot about this place oops.

Likes goth aesthetics.
