5 things: my fashion, how online am I, sensory processing, bedroom ceiling painting, short stories
one
one of the things I've been figuring out about how I want to dress these days is that it's valuable to look back on the kinds of clothes/outfits I admired when I was a kid but didn't know how to achieve at the time
so that includes things I'm achieving or attempting to various degrees like:
- layers
- lace up boots
- fun colours
- themed patterns à la ms frizzle
- fancy
- being matchy with colours to tie everything together
- hats
- things I make for myself
and implies I should also be seriously considering things like:
- lace embellishments
- suspenders
- bowties and other non-standard neckwear
- capes or cloaks
- sparkly
- drapey fabrics
- dramatic sleeves
- pocketwatch on a fancy chain
two
I was completing a survey recently and it asked what social media sites you spend time on. all the ones it listed are ones I don't go on, and there was no "other" option.
making me come across as a super offline person there, survey!! not accurately capturing the vibe!
three
sometimes I reflect on how amazing it is that it took me so many years of my life to learn I have sensory processing issues
but then I never had any experience of other ways to be, to compare to!
four
scrolling through my list of potential hobby things to work on* and omg I forgot I had that idea about painting my bedroom ceiling midnight blue with gold stars on it! that would look so rad. SOMEDAY.
* I have a written list bc otherwise I'd forget what my options even are. I have so many!
five
the other evening I read (or skimmed, or dnf'd) TWENTY-SIX professionally published short stories/novelettes in order to find one story that's good enough to rec publicly
WHEW
my service to the world....
and I have 62 more waiting for me rn in my rss queue. my work is ongoing!

Your list of fashion traits is absolutely wonderful. Capes and cloaks!

why thank you!!!! it's an ongoing effort, to become more and more the Weird Fashion icon I have always longed to be! (if you're interested, I have a private mastodon account where I post regular outfit photos, and I'd be happy to add you to it if you're on mastodon at all!)
