I’m glad I slept more but. The sun is now my enemy and I will stop at nothing to purge it from my lair and my room a shadowy, cold cave

I’m thinking about revising RtL soon instead of finishing my oneshots revisions. I’ve wanted to revise RtL for a while. I know @dirty-urie wants me to. It just feels like such a massive undertaking to overhaul it. Because it would be an overhaul. So much cutting and rewriting.

This is me rambling at almost 2am because I keep getting snippets of rewrites and dialogue and smut in my head. So I can’t sleep. But am I ready to rewrite it? That work was basically free therapy for me. Can I rehash all of that? I want to redo it. But I don’t know. I know it can be better. Fuck.

Fuck.

And would anyone even read it other than @dirty-urie? Have I lost all relevance? Was I ever relevant?

This is now an existential crisis.

Fuck.

This is the dumbest storm I've gone through in my life

I'm so mad!!! I have cling wrap in my living room windows that face the west. When the sun sets in the summer, it hits my front windows and turns it into an oven in here. We technically aren't supposed to hang things in the windows, but no one ever said anything, so I've had it up since at least 2021.

Maintenance came by today to check my smoke alarms and the manager was with them. Apparently she just now realized that I didn't just have my blinds open all the time. "We're supposed to see white on the outside," aka the blinds. Are you for real?? This shit stays on with static electricity. It doesn't damage the windows at all and it helps my heating/air conditioning costs stay down in the summer and winter. (I have room darkening curtains, but they're no match for the Texas sun in July).

The blinds don't do shit, either. If anyone has any ideas that don't stick in the window lane, I'm all for suggestions. 🤬

Made it to ikea yesterday. Got some new sheets (more than I intended but that's probably a good thing). Bought some emerald green light blocking curtains for the workroom. Got a kid's colored pencil roll up pouch to see how it would work for ergonomic crochet hooks (it was cheap so if it doesn't then it gets used for art supplies). Fell in love with a rug that was variegated shades of blue, yellow, and green; really hope it's still available later because I think that's what I want for the living room since it'll match our walls pretty well. Currently washing all the new stuff so I can get it put away this week (and crossing fingers that we can call a roofer soon so I can start putting things back).

I got new blinds and blackout curtains for my bedroom but only the ones I could find for my wider window ran all the way to the floor.

That wasn't gonna do at all.

So, with a little help from mom, I cut them down. They probably could have been a little longer, but they work and don't get caught up by my pillows nearly as much as my old curtains. So I'll call that a win.

Changmin and Yunho never visiting each other's current residences in Seoul until after their I Live Alone ep sounds like something from an AU fanfic but it's real (apparently) and it's on video. we have the evidence

I hate how when people talk about seasonal depression they only ever talk about the winter months. As soon as the sun is out I’m depressed. You can take vitamin D, put on enough clothes and turn on the light. I can’t make the sun disappear and rip my skin off and force people to stay inside.

The Magic of Home Decor: A Story of Drapes and Curtains

Once upon a time, in a small town in the heart of America, there lived a woman named Mary. Mary had always been passionate about home decor and had a keen eye for design. She loved nothing more than transforming a room into a beautiful and inviting space, and she was particularly fond of curtains and drapes.

Mary’s love of curtains and drapes began when she was a young girl, watching her grandmother sew beautiful cotton curtains on an old Singer sewing machine. Her grandmother would tell her stories about how she used to make curtains for the whole town, and Mary was fascinated by the way the right curtains could completely transform a room.

As Mary grew older, she continued to develop her passion for curtains and drapes. She studied interior design in college and worked for several years as a designer for a local home decor store. Eventually, she decided to open her own store, a place where she could share her love of curtains and drapes with the world.

Mary’s store was a small but cozy space, filled with a wide variety of curtains and drapes. She had everything from traditional curtains made of heavy fabrics like velvet and silk to light filtering curtains made of cotton and linen. She even had a range of curtain rods to complement every style of curtain.

One day, a young couple came into Mary’s store looking for curtains for their new home. They had just moved into a fixer-upper and were eager to turn it into a beautiful and inviting space. Mary greeted them warmly and asked them what kind of look they were going for.

“We want something traditional,” the woman said. “Something that will make our home feel cozy and inviting.”

Mary knew just the thing. She showed the couple a range of traditional curtains, made of heavy fabrics like velvet and silk. The couple was immediately drawn to a pair of deep red velvet drapes, and Mary could see their eyes light up as they imagined how the curtains would look in their new home.

As they were checking out, the couple asked Mary for advice on how to hang the curtains. They had never hung curtains before and were a little intimidated by the process. Mary smiled and told them not to worry. She explained the different types of curtain rods and how to choose the right one for their curtains. She even gave them a demonstration of how to hang the curtains, showing them how to adjust the length and width of the rod to fit their window perfectly.

The couple left Mary’s store feeling confident and excited about their new curtains. Over the next few weeks, they spent every spare moment working on their home, painting, and decorating. When they finally hung their new curtains, they were amazed by how much of a difference it made. The deep red velvet curtains added warmth and elegance to their living room, transforming it into a space that felt both traditional and inviting.

The couple was so thrilled with the new curtains that they returned to Mary’s store a few weeks later to thank her in person. They told her that their new curtains had inspired them to continue decorating their home and had given them a renewed sense of pride in their space.

Mary was overjoyed to hear this. She knew that curtains and drapes had the power to transform a room, but to see the impact they had on people’s lives was truly magical. From that day forward, Mary’s store became a haven for homeowners who wanted to transform their living spaces into beautiful and inviting places. And Mary continued to share her love of curtains and drapes with the world, one home at a time.
