🌎WELCOME TO MY COMMONPLACE🌎
This will be an everchanging page of nonsense thoughts and treasures that I come across in my typical wanderings.
A fair warning that the things I think about can often be gloomy and while I look at them from introspective standpoints, I know not everyone can.
Please read at your own discretion.
Thank you❤︎
🐬TABLET DECOR🐬
I've been drawing a lot
more recently and decided
that my art tablet case
felt a little boring since
it's just plain black.
Normally, I can appreciate
some minimalism but for an
art item it should show
off some art of mine.
Of course I went with a
blue Y2K theme and drew my character Memo's eyes for the center piece. Added some stickers from Amazon. I love how it turned out. Much more fun to look at.
This is a new one. Thrown at me from my Discover Weekly on Spotify. I wanna move away from Spotify soon and just rely on my MP3 player and Youtube, but I will miss the DW feature. Anyways- this song is odd. It's very chaotic sounding. Lots going on in the background, but for some reason it hits my ear just right. I can't explain it. I had quite a few songs like this on the playlist and this was the one that really stuck and gave me an ear worm in the best way. Her vocals are so raw sounding too. Love it and the feeling of finding new music to enjoy.
So, I moved pretty far away from my usual stomping grounds after my husband and I got married. It was probably the best decision I've ever made for myself. We live such a fortunate, slow, peaceful life and I wake up thankful for it every day. Sadly though, like all things in life, it's not all butterflies, rainbows, and unicorn shit. We get pretty harsh winters here and that's new to me as someone who grew up on the northern west coast with sunshine and lots of rain. It's been an adjustment. Probably one of the bigger ones because I get winter blues pretty intensely. I have such a deep new found love for nice weather now. I've been spending so much time outside laying under trees already. I feel like I'm thawing and there's this big fog/uncomfortable pressure in my brain fading away. I hope I can be more prepared for the next winter 'cause this last one really kicked my ass. Gonna soak up green grass and blue skies for the next handful of months while I can ( ߹𖥦߹ )
I've been creating more lately. I really fell out of love there with art for a while and I can't really explain why it happened. That's a pretty big deal for me. I was the 'art kid' growing up. It was so much of my identity. Maybe it was just burn out. Or maybe I just wanted to get to know other parts of myself better and was also busy getting my life together these past 5-6 years (I used to be kind of a train wreck lol). Probably a little bit of everything. Now I'm back at it and have been having a blast with it.
Maybe it's the good weather? During the winter it felt tough just getting out of bed every day. Now I don't wanna go to sleep because all I want to do is draw right now. I'm going to try to pace myself though. Because of my unmedicated ADHD, I have a tendency to hyperfocus and then burnout and not pick things back up again for months at a time. I wanna keep a regular cadence and historically, if I starve myself of the thing I want to do and force myself to miss it, I keep at it longer. I want to keep the fire kindled for a long time to come. I got lots of projects and unfinished game ideas to work on, but I have a lot of other interests, hobbies, and responsibilities to shove in between them to break it up so I don't run it into the ground. All things in moderation.

*read your latest blog entries* as someone who's been off spotify for half a year it makes you work harder for new music and you kinda appreciate it more tbh. the youtube algo isn't too bad either, nothing like it used to be but still can surprise ya.
This is comforting. Always love a new reason to appreciate music more. I'll prob feel like a kid again scouring different sources for new stuff like I used to when I would burn CDs or not want to ask my parents to buy me new stuff on iTunes lol. Not a bad thing! Excited to get off Spotify for lots of reasons. Plus, the CEO is a dick, company practices are crap, and the artists deserve better c:
yup I discovered way more new music in highschool on the old lastfm and online friends than I have using spotify... the algo is okay but it can also get really predictable. i've been on spotify for more than 10 years and it still can't wow me which is like.. whats the point lol
do you have a mailbox somewhere, I can't find it and I have questions for super secret important things
And ohmygosh I love your blog
