the year is ending (hermit_2020155522.log)

[cyberbrain]

I don't really post about myself here. That's something that I maybe want to change, so I'm considering doing the snowflake_challenge. It looks like it could be fun! (ETA: forgot to mention. idk how this place works, idk if I should/want to keep the "hermit.log" entries locked. until now my access-giving has been random because I don't have anything access-locked.)

...There's this thing I do where I constantly censor myself—I decide that what I have to say isn't interesting and stay silent. My therapist tells me that's not a very good idea, so here is a hermit attempting to share:

This happened a while ago but I haven't told anyone about it yet. I signed up for inkingitout with 75k words because I thought "Well, why not?" This year I've written somewhere around 55k words (but posted less than half of them), so I figured 75k should be doable.

(I looked at naye's fic meme, which asked about WIPs and that made me wonder how many I actually had. I counted 15 fics, 4 artworks, 3 videos and 2 podfics. LORDY, HELP ME!! Yes, this is all weilan and doesn't include the "stray half-formed ideas.")

Today I woke up in a good mood (a very rare occurrence!) and had around of hour of feeling nice before I hopped on my PC and saw some shit. I won't yet mention the shit in question because it hasn't fully resolved yet (and, to the best of my knowledge, it might end up working out well) but I want to note that I feel slighted.

To top that, today I also found out that my flight back to London was cancelled. (The email is a few days old, I just hadn't checked my inbox.) I'm not sure what to do. It seems I need to call them (British Airways) if I want to somehow get it changed or get a refund?? Thanks, 2020, you've been great.

ugh, maybe i'll spend the rest of today playing civ 5...

Wow, British Airways, RUDE. Why are all of the airlines terrible? (I've never met a good one, anyway.)

75k words, that's awesome! I'm looking forward to reading some of them! That total count of weilan WIPs is super exciting too, there are clearly some I don't know about, haha. Jiayou!

I really am glad that the not-so-good thing worked out alright, but it sucks that it ruined your good mood to begin with. :c

Big mood. (I, too, have never met a good airline orz)

I hope I can actually write that 75k, haha! Thank you! (If you wanna hear more about some of those WIPs, I wouldn't mind sharing :3c )

I'm glad too, omg! *shrug* At least it was easier to deal with this kind of ruined mood. ^^

Hehe. I'd love to hear more, yes!
