That’s funny, I get Nat Geo every month and sometimes I see something and think “Vlant could probably do something cool with that”.

I don’t keep mine, they go to my mom, and then from her to the school library.

I moved to a different position at my day job (window factory) that I like. It was stressful at first, but I’m staring to like it. I’ve been working the same position for over four years, but this newer one is busier, which means my body isn’t as tired from standing in the same position for as long. No pay raise, just a different thing. My evening job is also going well. I’m also playing a heavily modded version of Final Fantasy 9 in the evenings, which I’m enjoying. Got no complaints.

I got let go/fired myself from my job last week and I gotta say, I feel a huuuuuuge weight off my chest. Sleeping better, eating better, pooping better, fucking better… everything’s coming up W T Baker

Watching the neighbours’ tacky garden furniture disintegrating in the wind. Must have caused about five pounds worth of damage.

The view from my upstairs window looks considerably better than yesterday.

I got invited to sushi by a woman, so that’s pretty cool. It’s going to be a while before I can take her up on that because I’m on crazy sucktastic drugs that limit my human contact right now, but nice to have something to look forward to when it’s over in a few months.

Many reschedules later, I finally extended my geometry sleeve after an art trade with my good friend who does tattoos. She didn’t do the original piece, but she’s fixed up some of it. This was about four or five hours. It’ll make more sense with color, and there’s still more line work to be done, but my skin was over it.

Damn, this storm was a doozie. I left my house in a panic when the water levels got high and I was positive everything was going to get destroyed. Turns out, it’s just going to be a while until everything is livable again and it’s not nearly as bad as anticipated. Cleanup and other shit, like assessing the damage is probably going to take weeks over all, and I’m sure there are going to be a lot of setbacks along the way but the humans and dogs are fine. Obviously that part matters more than anything.

I’m still without power where I’m at now, had a window blow out and parts of the ceiling fell apart but even that is otherwise better than anticipated. I genuinely thought I wasn’t going to have a liveable home to return to, so I’m feeling pretty fortunate in a bad situation.

I think we have a third one forming though, so this year is turning out a bit crazy. I feel much worse for anyone up north who got slammed by the last one, because that was genuinely horrendous

This is pretty vague, but It was a surprisingly rough week for me mentally while my brain was processing some news from a friend, which made me very sentimental and a bit melancholy over something that happened in the past, but I made it out, and I feel much better. I felt like crap yesterday, but I feel really good tonight. All part of the process, baby!

I found the first half of a cover of 48 by Sunny Day Real Estate that I made a long time ago that I thought was pretty sweet. It inspired me to FINALLY pic up a working interface which was the last thing I needed in order to possibly make some music again since my last computer crash.

@SUBQUiRE might find it amusing.

even though the attention for my first release under this new alias has been extremely low… that’s ok! first of all I’m kinda used to it, and it doesn’t even matter because… I gotta say for real… what has filled my heart up with joy is the personal feedback i’ve received from a lot of people, some of them I’ve not held an actual conversation with in years, or ever, some of them being members in this community. people whose insight I have the utmost respect for. It means so much to me, I don’t care about stats or insights… the messages i’ve received have inspired me and reinforced that I am moving in a good direction. I’m so happy to be in the process of releasing music again – regularly – and to be moving things forward in what I love to do. I am so, so grateful.

I had to do OT at work the last few days, cuz that’s just how accounting is the first few days of the month. Looking like tomorrow I probably won’t have to. I managed to get ahead enough in school that I don’t have to do much work after work this week, so it’s not too bad.

Made a killer sound on the Moog One tonight. Even my brother thought it was good which means it has to be fucking amazing because he doesn’t give a flying shit about synthesizers.
