Yesterday I staystitched the armholes of the daisy fabric and started
pinning the burgundy floral to tissue for same. I’ve been reading Tsumiko
and the Enslaved Fox by Forthright, who is a fanfic author who’s branched
out into original works. Tsumiko reads like it — it’s quite catchy but the
fetishization of Japanese culture and folklore makes me nervous. Themes:
slowburn, dom/sub, enslavement, consent, nobility, infantilization, polyam,
rape, forced birth, and I’m only halfway through. So...consume with caution.
I went to the dentist for a cleaning and mentioned the cracked&patched
filling was still bothering me occasionally, so they took a quick X-ray but
didn’t see anything obvious. I have an appointment reserved for a week
after my next cleaning in case it gets worse over the next six months.
Walked in to campus through the park because the app said shuttles were
cancelled earlier than expected due to the funeral, but got passed by said
cancelled shuttle two minutes away from my house. Grr. I was carrying a
case of seltzer too. Grr. At least the woods were pleasant.
At work I wrote another test to try and get alternate names for relations
working, but it required an adjustment to the lexicon which broke a bunch
of other tests.
Home, sat for a bit, dinner, crossword, Legends, snack, sleep. I ate the
last protein bar. There won’t be any more until autumn as they don’t ship
well in the heat. Might go back to experimenting with making them.
Mood has been shitty in the evenings, not sure why.
