September 25th

I'm just gonna post an email I sent to my friend, Imp, who is on a mission:

Hi Imp! Thought I'd just update you on our boring life, considering I remember you saying you wanted more people to write you. I just didn't feel like I had a lot to say, and I don't see an address, so I'm just emailing :)

Atlantean and I are still living in our apartment. Sorry for being a terrible friend, but I kind of forgot when you left or how long you've been gone. I'm the woooooooorst. So I'm not sure what you're up to date on. I'm still working at Canyons School District, thinking about changing jobs, going back to school or having a baby, either one I guess lol. I read and write a lot and recently your brother and I are working on a new musical about Eskimos/Inuit. I am attempting to write a murder mystery and read the entirety of Sherlock Holmes. Atlantean is still working at Campbelt International as a welder. We've been thinking about making some changes to life, but sometimes it's hard to know where. We have vacations to Carey Idaho and Seattle Washington coming up along with tickets to an Owl City concert and Come From Away the broadway musical. The fun stuff that keeps me going lol.

I guess I should tell you that Mermaid is losing Vampire today. It's significant because it's happening so soon. He is taken to the MTC relatively soon and she is already a mess. I wish I knew how to help her because 2 years is a long time, and while Atlantean and I are glad we didn't have to wait for each other like that, I hope that I can be prompted on what to do and how to help. Any advice on that would be helpful considering you have had brothers leave before and it was probably hard. Satyr leaves soon after and then Wolfman. I hesitate to write this, because I fear I'll cry just thinking about it, but I am going to miss Wolfman SO much. I'm thinking about taking work off because I'm not sure how I'll function. Last night I sobbed. I can't even imaging losing him, let alone for two years. It's gonna be rough. Yep, here comes the water works. Better switch to a different topic.

We're glad you're having so much fun in Ohio. It's getting to be fall around here FINALLY and pumpkin patches and browning leaves are what the air reminds me of. It's a season of change, of casting out the old, and it was a needed change from our Summer craziness where the heat was sometimes up to unbearable numbers. I'm glad it's here. Right now it's at such a good temperature.

Oh yeah, I'm growing out my hair. Haven't had it long since I was 12, but Atlantean grew a beard for me, so I'm gonna grow my hair long for him since so far he likes it. I'm also learning the piano! And I personally think I'm getting pretty good. I'm still molasses slow, but atleast I recognize what notes are what WAY faster.

I dunno. That's us. Love you :)

September 17th

I am getting so infrequent that I forget what I've already posted about and what I'm leaving out.

This weekend we went to Gangrene Film Festival and Lagoon! Super fun! Have an idea in the workings for my own comedy film considering they spent two hours working up to five films. All I need is good enough quality film that they'll take it seriously. I already think I have the comedy down pat. Maybe I have too much confidence.

Found out I do indeed have PCOS. Doctor put me on some pills that gave me stomach pains which she said was a bad sign if I sensed it, so I stopped, but I'm not sure what to do since I was supposed to take them for two weeks to amp up to Metformin. Atlantean has had a hacking cough for nearly three or four months now. I hope it's the weather and that it goes away soon.

I just bought tickets for Owl City concert and reserved an AirBnb for Seattle for November! Heck! Life should be pretty cool! Next year I hope to take things slower. Save up for important stuff, like car, guns, TV, meds, home, stuff like that. I wanna have both Atlantean and I take fitness classes for atleast three months. Just chill it on the money spending... though we are doing pretty well with finances! We were shocked at how un-empty our bank account was last time we checked!

I learned to make cheese with Brownie and Sylph! We actually did pretty well, and I made it three more times to varying degrees of success. I'm still at Canyons School District. Wondering if I should be looking elsewhere, whether for education or new job. I think I'm getting comfy, but there are moments of restlessness.

My new projects include attempting to write a new play about the Inuit legend of Sedna, and attempting to write my own murdery mystery. I like how it's sounding so far, but I always worry how it will actually run, since that's the hard part. The interaction. Been thinking more about my dreams, like simulations and how I can pull them off. I'm proud of myself for trying to write a little bit of everything.

We are performing our wedding dance tomorrow at Atlantean's pseudo-mom's wedding! We kind of waited to the last minute to practice, but it looks pretty good. I hope the space is good. We still haven't seen where we'll be performing.


Also the USDB job only offered me three hours of work a day, so I had to turn down the job.
