Lady Gaga is back with "Stupid Love" and it's super 90s and light hearted and fresh and the video is all Power Rangers-like and solarpunk and good-cheesy and also 6th album "Chromatica" is on the way *flails arms wildly at Twillie*

You know you've made it when you see people walking around with the thing that you made yourself and taking photos of it. So many compliments. So much work all culminating at once. I am so happy.
I couldn't have asked for a better opening.

It usually makes me a bit awkward, but I'm making more of an effort to say 'good morning!' to people in the street these past few (from a suitable distance, of course!), and it's just really nice seeing people smile and say 'good morning!' back.

Ordered some fun gloves the other day, and they just came in \o/ Three of them together for just $13 <3 (plus $5 shipping, but hey I paid for all of it with a gift card, so I didn’t have to use any of my own money!)

I have so many fuzzy feelings about my tutors right now. This situation is crazy and they are insanely stressed but they are doing their best for us.

Proboards has recently been having some new "ads" on the top of the page, and oftentimes they're things like "CDC: how to protect yourself" or "please practice social distancing (by visiting us more often)," but sometimes they're also just really nice things like "you are appreciated" or "stay safe" or "have a great day! (yes, I'm talking to you)."
And, I dunno, I just feel like it's a thoughtful way to use that slot, and I appreciate that mini-boost.

Okay. This is just SO COOL! I"m not really sure this is a "gloat" really, and I feel like I should post it elsewhere, so more people can enjoy, but I'm not sure where. So for now, it's going here. Anyway, today is the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 13 launch. They are replaying all the audio from Apollo 13 IN REAL TIME! Like... All the mission control audio, all the crew to mission control audio, and press conferences. I'm geeking out just a bit. Because I love Apollo 13, and ohmygoodness. So cool! (Can you tell I'm kind of excited? lol) apolloinrealtime.org/13/

Went on a late evening walk with mum and Dormouse because Dormouse wanted to look for night creatures.
Glad I went because I saw a meteor!

Bought some pears that turned out to be hard as a rock (forelles) so I cut them in half and baked them--375 for over an hour with butter, sugar and pumpkin pie spice, with a short broiling phase to brown the tops--and they were AMAZING. DO IT

Other people: Young kids are dumb. Dormouse: Polycephaly is when an animal has two or more heads! That's so cool!
I am both proud and terrified of this scarily smart and open-minded child who likes weird things.

I never understood why people enjoyed walks in the rain until today when me and my mum went for a walk along a wooded path. The rain was not strong and the trees gave us shelter so that there was just the soothing sound of rain on leaves. The scents of wet earth and plants, the calming pitter of water, the relative lack of light...that was good.

I decided to give my nails something a bit different than just painting them. I had ancient polish with flecks of glitter and ancient pink polish and combined them together to make a sort of landscape of pink mountains with sparkling star-like things. I think it turned out pretty well for someone who's writing skills vastly outweighs her art skills.

I know I complain about inspiration punching me in the face so much these days but I really do love the feeling of wanting to write so much.
If I could time travel, I would go back to disillusioned, uninspired, close-to-lawyerbot-school Kat and tell her that everything will be okay and that she still has a lot of write left in her.

After putting it off for literally a year I have. Finally. Made. An appointment at the dentist! It's such a silly little thing, but legit feels like such a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. xD I'm still nervous because I know at least one tooth will need a filling, but soon this will be out of the way.
