I've haven't been working on a damn thing lately, unless you count wedding recovery and major event recovery as specific things you can do, as opposed to a mass of unspecified things I resolutely avoided. I'm told that what I was doing for about two weeks or so is similar to a vacation, the definition of which I understand in an abstract kind of way, but the specifics of which I'm much fuzzier on. As in, I worried a little less and spent money on things that were for me a few times, but I also continued to go in to work because if I don't, I actually get fired.
It wasn't even a stay-cation. In fact, there's really no -cation at all. Dereliction is more appropriate, but I read three books, Katie watched Supernatural, and I finally mowed the yard, so I assume that's good enough.
People gave us a lot of money. We were going to go on vacation until we realized that we actually need that money for liquor and home repairs, so we're not going anywhere but getting our drink on has become about two shelves classier. (Not top shelf classy, mind you. The Poor Guilt is strong within us.)
I always promise pictures, so let's see. Under the cut :
I guess it was also Geek Pride Day, so we put on these things so, like, Katie could do a thing. I was a little more ambivalent about it, but yeah, this is us at the St. Louis Botanical Gardens where we also had the ceremony.
So, I know there are still stories to tell and I've just gotten back on the path to working on personal projects, again. This whole fiasco took up a massive amount of time in our lives where we had to put everything on hold to the point where, objectively, some of the projects I'm interested in aren't really all that relevant to most people even providing I complete them. But, that's really bitching and moaning for another time. It's time to get back to working on original and derivative content again, and I'm glad for that, at least.
