Head Cannon: Dragonlance style: Caramon is voiced by Patrick Warburton…. And now I need to do a piece of the brothers but dressed Emperor’s New Groove style… At least my mind can think of these things. My art is blocked atm…

Over tired and overwhelmed and overstimulated and just done… and my week isn’t even done yet.

You know what? Today has been an absolute roller coaster, and I’m exhausted. I think I have also turned a corner, and I don’t care what the US government says or threatens us with. They cannot bully nations into submission, and frankly if he has a tantrum about us trading with the EU, 🤷🏼, oh well.

Grocery day means new book day for me and this week’s offering is “War Wizards”, and I’m feeling really happy about my Dragonlance collection coming back together.

Okay, after seeing the Series 3 part 1 trailer for Helluva Boss, I’m just going to treat this like a soap opera and try to numb my emotions. I knew I shouldn’t even try to figure out relationships, and hope for anything to happen. If it does happen, then I’ll be happy. Years of Passions did this!

So dang tired of IBS. So dang tired…and it’s brought in the joint pain for fun…

I am a weirdo, and happily so. Today we started invertebrates lab and oh, how I love it so much! And why? Because it’s the marine environment stuff that brings me all the joy.

Excited about seeing Beetlejuice in January! One of my must see musicals! (I have 4: Beetlejuice, The Addams Family, Avenue Q and Tanz Der Vampire).

Reading Dragonlance Chronicles before bed. I feel like I’m finding my feet again. It’s like going home. And I’m planning to do some fan art for characters now. :)

I think I now know why I’d been having nightmares about moving to the city I left 24 years ago, and never in my wildest imagination did I realize it was a warning about what today was and is… and that is unsettling.

25 years since that day where I cringed every time I heard a plane. I was supposed to go to lecture for a 4th year religion class, but I couldn’t move.

Moment of melancholy hit today: the realization that my brother has now been gone from this earth longer than he was alive… and I am only now reading the books he used to love again…

Laundry folded, and now back to the colouring.

Aaaaah! I just gave Mr Cat a choice in snacks (a wet treat or some kibble). He sat down sniffed both and then actually chose the tube snack! With his paw! Aaaaah! So awesome! He’s so smart!

Doing some colouring while the cooked steak rests. I should cook the green beans though…

Taking some time to sit with Mr Cat today. He’s got one paw wrapped around my ankle and he’s snoring.

Classroom scouting done, but look at these pretty fall colours!

A reminder that I do not speak for all Canadians, only myself but to the US government (particularly the CAD US ambassador and the US POtuS and team) a phrase that someone told me and it should be addressed to you: F off, F all the way off and then once you’ve done that F off some more!

Day 7 and we’re mostly done the peeling stage. The itchiness is immense. This is back to my normal healing routine and I’m glad!

So excited for today! New familiar for Idle Champions and he’s adorable! I love when I can get a new familiar!

Chicken, broccoli and fruit salad for dinner. And now it’s time to listen to the storm.

There has been a lot of thought in my life to wondering why we’ve coupled our money to the US currency rate. So now I’m hoping we can couple it to something more positive like the Euro. I’m tired of the Mango Menace…

Day 6 healing: and this may just be any number of factors, but getting my D&D character as a tattoo (and reading Dragonlance books before bed) seems to have diminished my nightmares and substituted out the better option for fantasy style dreams. Flaking stage is brutal, but we’re surviving!

After hearing about the 1.5C UN Limit and how we blew past it, I’m feeling glum. I mean, I still want to go towards Green tech (I even think we could utilize wind captures at intersections in the city with micro turbines), but I really have been in my head about this.

Hey Quebec!! Your strawberries are divine! I got them at Costco, the Pitre ones, and they’re so juicy and delicious!!! It’s pure love!

Yay! Day 5 of heal and we’re finally in a place I recognize. We’ve got cracking and flaking. Sadly my body is dealing with a flair of another variety, so tired. Dreaming of staying at an inn with my partner was really nice.

My Mr Cat followed me into the library after I went to put a new book into the disaster that is, and I asked if he’s trying to be a Jellicle Cat and if he’s the Library Cat.

Well, I don’t know what my brain is doing today, but it is now trying to design a pixie assassin and I’m here for it. Where does my brain get these ideas? LOL!

Day 3 healing. We haven’t had the “cracking” yet (that’s where my tattoo breaks into the second stage), but it’s close. So I stated using my tattoo cream (made in MB, of course!) and we’re off to the races. The balm is from Hart and Hamilton, if you’re curious.

Okay, but MapQuest, for real? You let me be… a unicorn!!!🥹😍 this is totally awesome!!
