  • Aww Yiss…..Monday!

    Not gonna lie. This is how I feel about Mondays: You see, as I mentioned a couple weeks ago, I love Mondays. Mondays are like a great big old reset button, so that no matter how last week was, this week is a new, fresh one where you can start over and do better. Not…

  • It’s Sunday, which means it’s time for another RoW80 update! Today’s update is the good kind of update, too, where I don’t have much to report on because things have been going nice and smooth. With nothing big really happening except for the steady progression of my goals, one might even go as far as…

  • So, the boyfriend and I finally went to go see Captain America: the Winter Soldier yesterday, and it was really, really, really good. As usual, I left the theater feeling pretty charged and excited. Marvel movies these days have that effect on me, and I really hit the jackpot on figuring out why. This latest…

  • RoW80 Update: Whoopsies!

    Isn’t it interesting how, sometimes, we can be incredibly successful in so many things throughout the day, but then we manage to fail at one minute detail, and all those successes seem to fade into the background to make way for the pressing mar on our otherwise perfect day? That’s how I’m feeling right now,…

  • It felt like just yesterday I was sitting here, thinking about my RoW80 goals, musing about how Sunday felt so far away and I had plenty of time to get things done. Then I realized it was Saturday, meaning tomorrow was Sunday, and I had to make sure I had some art to post and…

  • Consumed.

    I have become consumed by my writing. For the most part, this is a good thing. An excellent thing. This is the reason why I quit my job, so that I could once again be infused with the passion of creating that I used to have, that has gotten buried under the minutiae of a…

  • I was intending to include this in an Awesome Things Volume, but, after a few days of playing around with it, I’ve decided to give HabitRPG it’s own post. What is HabitRPG? Besides the cleverest goal tracking program in the entire world? …Well, that basically sums it up, but let me elaborate. I was fortunate…
