Fidgety Friday

Ahh! It's been too long! (ミⓛᆽⓛミ)✧ I moved into the new place. I'm kinda settled, there's still more to pack, unpack, arrange, and rearrange. But for now the essential stuff is here and I'm slowly getting used to the place. I've also started my new job and that's kept me pretty busy. I usually have to take afternoon naps to recuperate so I that have the energy to do what I want. Kinda bummed that it takes so much of my day when I'd rather be creative since I have so many ideas. ( T ʖ̯ T) But alas, it is what it is, lol. Regardless, it's been a pretty interesting experience. Met some interesting characters and learning quite a bit.

Aside from moving, I've managed to squeeze in some fun events. Went to a theme park with friends on a rainy day. It was pretty fun. We got to do a lot since most people were scared off by the stormy weather. ᕙ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕗ On other days, I went out on a short marsh nature trail, ate New England clam chowder (I missed this so much), went swimming and met a kind lady, and caught a rock performance. It's been a blast thus far. Kinda feels like a vacation but it's just that everything is so new to me here. (⌐■_■)

I did not complete SilverV week on time but I guess that was to be expected with everything going on. ┐( ͡° ʖ̯ ͡°)┌ I do intend to finish the challenge. I'm only missing two more prompts. I posted a few chapters on AO3 already. Still need to edit a few more before posting the rest and write the remaining two. I'm glad I was able to participate even though I couldn't complete it on time. But hey, better late than never, right? And when that's finished I'll have my first completed work. Haza!ヽ(•‿•)ノ I also gotta wrap up the two art pieces I was working on. Haven't been able to work on those much. >⌓<。 I'm sure when I get some semblance of normalcy then I can get into the groove of it again.

Haven't been able to read as much as I'd like but I have been listening to a lot of music. Got pretty into Jerry Cantrell's solo stuff and really looking forward to his new album dropping in October. He's currently touring but I can't catch any of his shows because 1) they're kinda far and 2) they're on weeknights. (ಥ ͜ʖಥ) I'm hoping he'll tour again for the new album and then I'll be better prepared. I'd really like to see him live either solo or with AiC. I really want to make this happen lol. It'd be sooo cool!

Well that's enough updates for now. Hopefully, I'll be back soon!

It is great to hear from you! I also have to take naps a lot of the time to recuperate from work. I think that you'll need less of them once you've gotten used to the routine of the job. It does sound like you're enjoying it all over, which is great.

You did quite a bunch of fun things too. I'd also prefer going to an amusement park when it's not quite that good weather, so it's not horribly crowded.

I also love the song you shared, thanks!

Congrats on the move! There's always a lot that goes into it (the nightmare of unpacking!) but I'm glad it sounds like this was a good one.

I'm glad it went smoothly! That's the best you can hope for from a move.

Oooh a new place! I remember how I felt when I first moved in (now my current home). I wish you a nice house-warming!
