in the trenches. always.

last song: "rollercoaster" by bleachers (played while painting the dresser)

currently watching: red army (the 2014 hockey documentary)

current obsession: uh. still hockey 😔

currently reading: in between books at the moment. just finished reading the giver quartet. did you know there were more books in the universe of the giver? i did not, and indeed, it turns out i didn't remember anything that happened in the first book. probably moving on next to a depressing non-fiction book about jewish history

currently working on: painting and more painting

last google search: vladislav tretiak. did you know he's the first soviet player to be inducted in the hockey hall of fame, even though he never played in the nhl? good for him!

Currently watching: I actually need something to project watch because I have nothing queued up and I just keep watching hours of sorted food and random shorts on YouTube.

Current Obsession: hockey is a given, but I’m trying to make a pile of dish scrubbers for my New York crew so I have the urge to knit right now.

Currently reading: save the game JJ mulder. It’s part of a hockey adjacent mm romance series. It’s bingeable but idk if I’d say memorable.

Currently working on: my fitness. Honestly it takes up a lot of my head space these days. I’m just so happy I am able to do it again after a really rough few years of disability that I’m kinda singularly focused on it. Also I think it’s good to re-embrace my jock identify.

Last google search: boring- why does my GasBuddy cc keep asking for a driver and vehicle number? (Something about it being a fleet card and I can just type 0000) Interesting- Amaury Pierron, French downhill mountain biker (I watched the downhill World Cup in Lenzerheide yesterday with my friend who is a bike guy ™️)

Currently watching: I've amassed a list of movies from my dad that I need to watch, so I'm gonna be working on that. That or bodycam videos. Guilty pleasure, I know.

Current obsession: If we go under the understanding that hockey has crossed over from an obsession into a way of life... probably banana ball?

Currently reading: I'll be so honest, I don't really read many books anymore. Uh, the EP NHL draft guide? I've got another hockey book, I think the title is "Take Your Eyes Off the Puck", by Greg Wyshynski that I'm planning on reading soon. Which reminds me that I also need to finally bite the bullet and buy one of Jack Han's hockey e-books...

Currently working on: Lotta things. Gradebook project for a teacher I TA'd for, trivia questions for my weekly trivia host, as well as the Boy Auction Challenge (keep an eye on this space).

Last search: nhl draft rankings 2026, tomas galvas, jack hextall, brooks rogowski, iihf divisions, rheaume mullen, nhl draft consolidated rankings, web archive... uh. yeah ☺️

Get to Know Me Game!

Last Song: my kpop era is still going strong. Ateez just dropped their recent comeback so everyone go listen to MAMACITA (should’ve been the title track) and get back to me!

Currently watching: I just started semantic error and I am going to watch The Sheep Detectives while I drink wine and cry tonight…. Yippie!

Current obsession: well if we’re not counting hockey and the omegaverse… I’ve been into kpop since October and I’ve spent wayyy too much money on it but I can’t stop, I NEED the plushies so bad

Currently reading: okay so don’t hate me but it’s been a hot sec since I read a book. The last one I read was None of this is True by Lisa Jewel

Currently working on: finding an new place to live by the end of the month because I’m being kicked out by my friend/roommate (long story dw). I started a new fic and that should be published in a few days because I’ve missed writing

Last google search: two bedroom apartments under [price] in [my city] pretty boring sorry folks 😅

tagged by: like three people but i lurve you all <3
