• hello! the 60th "week"note¹!!! how auspicious, six multiples of ten!!!
• i've been ill a lot!
• april is nearly over, my tarot card for this month was the devil. may is justice reversed. iykyk.
• i'm annoyed i'm still so early in writing april's video essay, but i'm aiming to just finish the script by the end of the month now :(
• been really on my planning grind at the moment; really enjoying keeping more record of my days, and seeing what i can improve each week. i forgot to set any goals or intentions for his week but i don't necessarily think that's bad, and tbh i already have a "12 week year" situation going on so i have overarching goals already anyway. still enjoying reviewing, still will probably plan next week, we're being chill and normal.
• i do feel a block around writing which is feeling like i'm perpetually off-road driving, and i really want to be back on a beautiful paved-over motorway as soon as possible, which is really demoralising for someone who is a pantser/discovery writer primarily. it usually doesn't bother me that much, but for the scripts and blogs i want to write at the moment i really want a sounding board and just don't have many people to infodump on. how does one become their own muse, editor, cowriter, biggest fan, etc? if you know let me know.
• actually been outside a lot. fire drill! at the club really pissed me off but i get they have to practice some time... i would honestly have gone home as soon as that happened if i was by myself lol.
• learning to cycle is progressing! i am still not always confident i can get on and just cycle, but i am more consistently able to cycle a bit, which is good. hopefully the lovely weather continues and i can practice more!
• need to get into a rhythm with french and yoruba learning really! otherwise it will not happen.
• i kinda want to track my article reading, not sure how to go about it, and would want to put some commentary on it like mandy brown's a working library. will have to ponder!
• been feeling a lot of climate rage at the moment. i assume eventually it will transmute into grief but i'm glad not to feel inert and useless in the face of it currently.
• i've been eating pizza, chickpea and chorizo stew, plentiful amounts of rice and spinach and ricotta tortellini. i've been drinking rapidly warming tap water, small glasses of whole milk, elderflower cordial and mango rubicon.
• how have you been? how was your week?
• thanks so much for reading 💟
