So, clearly being back in the office 85-95% of the time has severely killed my ability to blog on here. Who would have thought!!
What's been going on with me in the past 6-12 weeks, anyways? Well, work mostly. Lots of work and training and dealing with the new super being... Mmmm let's not say inadequate but let's compromise with "lackluster". Like, I don't want the supervisor job - far from it - but I was somehow doing it so much better. But, whatever. Time to let New Guy sink or swim on his own. If I'm casually mentioning all the things that are falling behind in my one on ones with Bossman, well, who can say what that will mean for New Guy's performance eval at six months?
Outside of work, it's been mostly writing, writing, writing. The whole pandemic has been a continued nightmare, and I've only seen people a handful of times. With the Delta stuff and unvaccinated people fucking it all up for us, its looking like the fall is going to be right back to Never Seeing Anyone Outside of Work mode. Which sucks ass.
Family stuff has been a nightmare between my parents inexplicably doing a 180 from February to outright refusing to listen to the CDC and get their damn shots. On top of that, they're not dealing with some interpersonal stuff with my sibling and I with ANY kind of grace. So I basically don't even want to talk to them and they can't be assed to even pretend to be civil and what do you know? Radio silence sucks all around. Ughhhh.
Positive things, positive things... I'm sure that I can wrangle some of those out from somewhere...
Doc and I have made two batches of wine so far! We did a Riesling and a Strawberry White Merlot (kind of like a blush, kind of not) and now the house is stocked with something like 50 bottles at this point XD We're well prepared for any spur of the moment gifts needed for people and have gotten to share the Reisling so far on those scattered few days when we DID get to see friends and my sibling.
Writing has been my one constant, other than my darling Doc and the animals. I'm a little behind on where I'd like to be with some open event responsibilities and I haven't updated Prove It in a hot minute; BUT I am very excited by how consistent I've been able to be with the Darklina Horsie Fic aka WHHT. The outline ballooned a bit, yes, but the readers are LOVING it. And I'm having a blast. SO that's a win.
Next week come hell or high water I will have drafts done for![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
auexchange and rule63exchange. And maybe I'll be bold and get a chapter drafted for Prove It in by the start of September. We shall have to see.
Cheers for now!
