Here We Are Again

[singedsun]

Got so worn out last night I tried to sleep in the bed like normal, and boy was that a bad idea. I woke up so sore and out of it I ended up giving in to take one of my pain pills. Spent the whole day mostly asleep or in a fog. Around five-thirty when I started to feel somewhat human again, I was super nauseous from the pain medicine and didn't have dinner. It wasn't until like nine tonight until I felt pretty normal. We decided to take advantage of me feeling good and went out to see a movie.

Ready or Not is a really fun horror movie romp starring the woman who was in the Netflix horror movie The Babysitter from last year. She does a great job leading this movie. We thoroughly enjoyed it for the silly kind of slasher that it was. I really liked the supernatural concept they were running with and though the movie is a completely self-contained story, I'd love to get more of the family's story.

I've been watching Wu Assassins on Netflix (and enjoying it quite a bit). Tried to watch some after we got home from the movie, but was unable to really focus enough to enjoy the episode I was on. I started to feel kind of nauseous and tired and was definitely feeling some pain again, so I tried to lay back and go to sleep. Since it's a quarter to four and I'm writing this post, that was obviously a fail. I laid there for about an hour and just felt all the pain points in my stomach, and the migraine that's forming. I know this is getting old, me not sleeping and complaining about it. We've got a lunch with the kids tomorrow, so I need to sleep a little tonight so I can be coherent enough to enjoy that. Then I need to find something I can take to get me to sleep that isn't going to make me a complete zombie tomorrow night.

While in a fog on pain meds, I accidentally outed myself on my second AO3 account, which I've been so careful not to do in the like five years I've had it. I don't think the person noticed, they continued to comment back to me without mentioning it and I was quick to delete the original comment and repost it under the right account. But a) I was excited by the idea of commissioned writing (which is why they commented in the first place) and b) my brain is definitely running slow and I wasn't even thinking about what account the story was on. Oops.

Which reminds me I need to call in one of my regular fibro meds so we can pick it up tomorrow.

I spent some time updating my theme, because I've been online so late at night lately, I'm finding darker themes much easier to look at. It's the same theme just darker with a different header that's a little easier on the eyes. I do have the light turned down on my monitor and the night mode turned on, but the darker skins just make it even better. I wish there was a version of the normal DW skin that was dark. The dark ones they have make the site aligned differently and it's not for me.

In this specific case I started it so I could write stories for a kink meme and post them to AO3 without linking to them to my regular account. Some of those expanded beyond the original meme posts into full blown 10k+ word stories so I keep using it to update those stories and respond to comments.

That's pretty cool! I wish I could write/finish ANYTHING lately.

Do kink memes even still exist or is it just rolling on its own momentum now?

[singedsun]

As far as I know, they do still exist. And I've seen new ones created around new smaller fandoms. There's a lot of like one-time post type threads too where someone hosts a comment thread for fic and many of those are kind of kink/genre/trope type specific.

That would be nice! I think that sounds like it could be a way to make friends in smaller or older fandoms especially. Hmmmmmm.
