My brain has decided it doesn't want to write.
I've been feverishly writing this thing for over a month, it has fourteen chapters and almost 70k words and these men have infected my brain-goo to the point where I am almost constantly thinking about them.
But two days in a row now I can't write. I can write notes but I don't want to write notes.
I want to write about them eating a man in an alleyway after buying supplies for their new crew, arguing over how best to manage their crew, and the big climactic final target of Lucient's vengeance before they have to run away from every single type of authority there is and spend the remainder of their first century together in hiding--and the cheesy, romantic gesture Ludovico sets up for Lucient's birthday.
I can write none of those things. For the brain says no.
Hands wont let me art either.
The hell am I supposed to do with this. =/

Finished Folk Songs for Trauma Surgeons!
Very much enjoyed it, will have to pick up my own copy someday. It's a weird-horror anthology, with a lot of the stories being along the lines of "what if you put a kinda shitty person in a bad situation?" rather than slashers or supernatural horror. Overall, it's pretty effective. It's also a very short book packed with short short stories, which are my favourite. I love it when an author can pack a punch without dragging a story out into a novelette. There is a distinct lack of trauma surgeons, though, so don't be fooled by the title.
Not sure what to read next. I feel like something lighter for sure, but I've acquired so many books recently that I really have to take stock and figure out what my options are lol. Not a bad problem to have.

My Thoughts on Paris 2024 Artistic Gymnastics
I've been waiting 3 years to watch these Games since Tokyo 2020. Some things worked out for my favourites and some things were disappointing. There were some crazy surprises but overall I genuinely liked how gymnastics unfolded.
My absolute favourite thing was Carlos Yulo of the Philippines winning 2 gold medals on FX and VT. It was a true fairy tale coming to life. Now whenever I think about Carlos I'm always gonna think about his joyous wins. Makes me smiley :) A heartwarming feeling. I don't think any gymnast at these games got me feeling like this. HUGE congratulations to Carlos.
I'm happy for Shinnosuke Oka of Japan. He won 3 unexpected gold medals and a bronze medal. Well maybe the team gold was expected but they had some issues in the finals but won gold in the end. He also won the coveted GOLD in AA. I'm so ecstatic for him.
Of course I can't go without talking about Sunisa. My heart was with her through out the games and I think even the judges were with her. I am so happy the judges awarded her 3rd place AA. I loved loved her stuck DLO 1/1. The genuine joy on her face made me happy. I'm very proud of her for winning bronze in UB finals as well. It was a fierce competition that even she knew 3rd was a realistic accomplishment. I'm sad she didn't do great in BB finals but then again that finals overall was disappointing. I'm so proud of Suni and she will also bring home a well deserved team GOLD! Team USA no doubt earned that medal and was a highlight for me.
Gotta talk about Simone Biles. Even if some are tired or overwhelmed by talking about how great she is, her gymnastics is legendary and will be remembered forever. She's just so amazing! Should never take her for granted. She's a treasure.
Was so happy for Zou Jingyuan and Liu Yang defending their GOLD titles on PB and SR. They are true masters on their events.
Was happy for Rhys McClenaghan, Nariman Kurbanov and Stephen Nedoroscik on pommel horse finals. A first for Ireland and Kazakhstan.
I am happy for Rebeca Andrade coming out as the 2nd most decorated female gymnast of these games. She really deserved it. At times I felt her Cheng vt could of gotten better escore since she is the master at that vault. It's a thing of beauty. It was fitting she won floor GOLD after winning all silver this games. She really deserved it. I know her fans are super happy and over the moon their favourite finally won a GOLD medal.
I really liked Flavia Saraiva throughout these games too. She was so badass with a black eye in team finals. I loved her beam in AA finals.
I'm happy QIu Qiyuan won silver on bars. Her bars is beautiful and I like it a lot.
I'm happy for Kaylia Nemour on bars GOLD. After everything she's been through she got the GOLD medal. Her bar routine is amazing with everything connected, it's crazy. Her Nemour (inbar Nabieva) is amazing. This routine is going to be watched over and over again.
I'm happy for Jade Carey on VT 3rd place. She's actually good and doesn't get enough praise.
I'm happy for Jordan Chiles FX and it sucks what happened to the Romanians but I'm happy for Jordan Chiles. I just really like her.
I'm happy Alice D'Amato got gold on beam after so close to almost being 3rd in AA. Everything worked out in the end. It was like the universe said fuck it you will get that GOLD.
I'm happy Zhou Yaqin won silver. I truly feel she is the best even if she grabbed the beam. She was rewarded rightfully. She should be proud of herself.
I'm happy Jake Jarman got 3rd on FX
I'm happy Xiao Ruoteng got 3rd AA
I'm happy Tang Chia-Hung got 3rd on HB because his bars is unique and cool. It's sad he fell but yeah
I was disappointed that Daiki Hashimoto didn't have the best competition but he will go home with a team GOLD so that's good
I wished Zhang Boheng could have been better but he will leave with some medals so I'm happy for him.
Update: will update this when there are more information regarding WAG floor finals

Freaking update!
I finally got some validation. This man looked at me and was like there’s definitely something else going on. Autoimmune or connective tissue disorder. Fucking hallelujah! Finally, someone who took one look at me and didn’t say you’re healthy go away. granted he can’t give referrals or anything to get me to where I do need to go but fucking finally I have someone saying that it’s not all in my fucking head that this is an issue that needs to be addressed.
Where to go from here? How to go from here? Those are my next problems.
