omg hi chat!! if i posted this a day earlier i would've posted this exactly a month apart from my previous entry. which is what i would say if i actually posted it. but i didn't. hm.
sorry about that lads, the bugs got to me real good this time. you're not rid of me yet though. just like william "purple guy" "vincent" "man behind the slaughter" afton, i always come back. i wasn't completely dead though, so let me catch you up on what's going on in the charlie realm. gonna give a general refresh of all my pages, too. make sure my assets are up-to-date and all that. anyways, back to the post.
as previously mentioned, the bugs. been feeling really burnt out at job lately, but the slow season is finally starting, so i'm thinking that now i'll be able to chill out a little bit and regain my bearings. that and art has been in a slump too. but! i did happen to finish a reference sheet for mister artie grace, who will get his wiki page as soon as i'm done with ted's. i've tried to pick up reading again (started good omens!!), and i've been struggling but we're getting there. we're gonna get that attention span back, baby!! to help with this, i've ordered a flip phone that has yet to arrive.
DIGRESSION ALERT -while all the big players in social media are currently shriveling up and dying, i've been perusing the fresh meat cropping up - some look promising, so if you're stumbling around the indie web and looking for an excuse to find a new social media service to call home, now is a beautiful time. bluesky appears to be a suitable twitter replacement, and cohost seems to be nice for the tumblr user looking to jump ship after what's been happening with the ceo.
i've also started a let's play thread for final fantasy vii on basement community if you, dear reader, weren't aware. i've never played it before and i'm going in as blind as anyone could go i think. sephiroth is my favorite character so far!! he is very pookie to me.
today was a fun day - i got to hang out with my beloved. we went out to eat and then we went to the record store!! i spent like $50 but it was on some really good stuff plus i was supporting a small business so i'll call that a win. though i'm also angry at myself for spending so recklessly, because i'm trying to save money. so that's something i need to work on. but i had a fun day today!! and that's what really matters i think.
ted's wiki page should be uploaded with this blog post. yippee!! i'm also going to start working on something new for the front page since i've gron sick of the art there, and maybe start working on some webpages for local things i like just to fuck around.
