March already
Mar. 3rd, 2026 12:06 pmI got thrown off my routine entirely with some health news in mid-February. I don’t feel like going into details yet, but there may (or may not?) be a significant surgery in my near future. I’m fine - it’s a scoliosis issue, so I’m not in danger or pain. Just. Blech. It’s A Lot.
I’ve retreated to comfort fanfic (Wangxian), which has been most helpful. I’m also planning on finally watching Heated Rivalry, now that I’m in the post-Olympic void. I did have one very joyous thing in Feb. I won a gorgeous midcentury wooden bookshelf similar to a decrepit one I gave away during my last move. I’d had that one since the early 90s, but I’d never gotten around to fixing it up. Now this similar one is in a great space, looking beautiful, and holding my children’s books and my Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation books and manhua. On the top shelf are my complete series DVD sets. I’d put in a picture but I’m lazy. Rest assured it’s a wonderful fannish addition with one shelf that’s for action figures from STTNG and the X-Files to some Leía and Rey figurines from the third unfortunate trilogy of SW.
It makes me happy. And since the world is dark and full of horrors, I need that.
