Actually finally think I can say that I AM finally on the ACTUAL LEGITIMATE UPSWING and not experiencing just like, bouts of happiness/sanity between bleak stretches of nothingness.

Still having some bad days and still having my creativity suffering pretty severely but I'm having more good days than bad consistently now for several months.

I'm still VERY low energy compared to pre-pandemic, so I'm still trying to figure out how to like... work anything that brings me actual joy back into my life? That sounds SUPER bleak, but it really has been one of those things where I've felt like a lot of my entertainment was more about distraction than about joy?

Trying to rebalance and getting back into RP (both regular tagging and, god, maybe actually a game at some point) are both on the horizon, but still pretty far out there, still.

But yeah! Things are generally on the upswing, now, it's just a long journey back to where I started.

Lemme tell you, y'all that have managed to keep consistently writing through this whole thing are the real MVPs.

My creativity is the first thing to go in times of stress.

yay for not dead!

Also... I maaaaaaaaaaaay think about TDMing for Reparacija? I'm intrigued, if nothing else.

I'm not sure if I am anything near game ready mentally. But a TDM seems like a good place to figure that out.

repar -whatnow?

New game thingie. Just came across DWRPNews a few days ago, I think?

@reparacija - Official re-announcement plurk - we ar...

Not sure yet either who I would bring to this (though Carden is a complete shoe-in for "character most likely to be psychologically destroyed by this setting")

It might depend on who else ends up on the TDM.

Carden CRAU on the TDM. Still not sure about apping but wanted to kind of play around with it.
