cutie angel with full of love

at work i wear my IDs in a mametchi-shaped badge holder, and one of the kids became obsessed with it and decided its name was Winky. he liked it so much that i drew him a "Winky" to keep, which lead to Winky becoming an entire species, and he begged me to draw various winkys with him such as hunter Winky, tank Winky, wizard Winky, Winky animals to be hunted, etc... and then other kids started drawing their own Winkys... the original kid made Winky versions of him and myself, one kid drew a Winky family

how long do you take to "complete" a drawing (by your definition)? to the extent that you are mostly satisfied with it?

trying to be more practical with my clothing buys... i have a frequent problem of "i dont know what to wear, i don't feel like xyz matches and im too anxious to try it", and i often feel unsettled in short skirts, so i got some simple long skirts that can be thrown on with almost anything

i want to read more scifi... last week i made a list of stories i would like to try. i set up i robot, ubik, and reasons to be cheerful on my phone, and i am going to try reading one on the porch right now.

it is often that i want to talk to people, but i cannot think of anything substantial to say, and thinking of something worthwhile requires so much energy that it is like i might as well not say anything at all.... how pitiful.......

my dog, zuley, passed away on march 7th. she was almost 19 years old. she became very ill and we decided it was kinder to euthanize than attempt treatment (slow/unlikely to succeed). her death was peaceful and i was with her the whole time.

i'm excited for otakon this year... i will probably be really busy with volunteering, but i am hoping to be more social this time. i feel less social pressure at these events because i know basically everyone else is really socially awkward and i don't have to be on my social game lol.
