It's been a hot minute. I fell into a Harrow the Ninth shaped hole, and have been very tired recently trying to finish up things. Boy howdy I'm struggling with getting the last of the goddamn comms done.

But anyway. There's an SCA event this weekend and I want to finish these two pre-prints I've been working on, so I'm probably going to be working on those all week. Ideally I'd like to finish comms too and maybe start Nona the Ninth, but we'll see. 

Fitness habits need to get rearranged, too. I've been doing pretty well playing stepmania pretty often, but I should probably work on doing my strength training too.

Am I procrastinating at work? Yes. But to be fair there are people procrastinating on getting back to me so I can do work I need to do. Also, the brain sloth cometh.

New ffxiv patch was good--I feel like since finishing endwalker I haven't been able to be as invested in the story. Still, it was nice to see the twins. (I could swear they keep getting taller.) Also I still love Zero, she's great. 

Had a convo at the SCA baronial meeting last night about blank borders (ie the stuff you make that people can make into preprint scrolls) and I'd really like to try to get involved and make them. I need to really clear off my art desk so I can do that. I do wish it was bigger and I had a huge desk I could combine my computer and art stuff on, but I don't have the space. Maybe wherever we live next I can have an office/art space that isn't my bedroom.

....I may have been too distracted to fill that Friday prompt last week. My bad. This week should be less busy.

Okay, goals. By Wednesday I want to be done with the big commission I've been working on and start some other smaller ones I can do concurrently and maybe finish by the end of next week; I also want to be done with that one scroll I'm doing for the SCA by Wednesday. I may need to take my paint and brushes to meeting, actually, but that's something I can work on while I'm there.

Speaking of scadian things, fun stuff: I got a (small) loom that I can learn how to weave on and a lucet on Saturday. I've been practicing with the lucet today because the 18 hour day yesterday has me paying in a flare-up and pain today and I'm not really up for much else. I didn't get like. A lot of sleep last night either so I should really rest for today as much as I'd like to go to my favorite bakery/Boba tea place and get some treats.

Yesterday I went to an SCA event about three hours away (and I drove there and back, so needless to say I'm a little exhausted) but it was a fantastic event, and I got cool stuff! 

For those that don't know, I describe the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) as a medieval reconstruction group, focused on learning about the middle ages through learning to do the things that they did.

Kris Kinder is a shopping event in my Kingdom; there were over 600 attendees this year, and something like 30 or 40 vendors. Of I ever start making more original professional art I might be one of them one day.

I finally got a cloak, which is surprisingly heavy but very warm, a very cool handmade mug, a CD from a local person, an art print, and a very nice cluster of quartz. I'll be posting the pictures I took during court proceedings over on my personal dw later today!
