How goes it? Have you done anything for Pride/do you have any plans for it? Be gay do crime etc.? Also happy birthday!! Stay cool and all!
Hello my friend! I am so so pathetically sorry for taking so long to reply. Its been brain scrambly at work and too stinkin’ HOT here of late.
Thank you for my philosophical gift and birthday wishes! 💜
I haven’t been able to do much for Pride this year, sadly. Folks I’d usually celebrate with are either in the midst of a family crisis or have just sort’ve not been around. My social circle is more like a square… or a triangle.
But I’m reading good books (read ‘Our Monstrous Progeny’ for an excellent gothic queer take on Frankenstein with hints of Jurassic Park), and enjoying some time off and getting sunburn because I’m a pasty white lady who forgets to put sunscreen on! Genius!
I hope you (and anyone that also happens to read this) is safe, as well as you can be, and has many reasons to smile.
(Ooh! And I will also take a look at the anime you recommended thank you!)
Hello! How are you doing? How is the Latin going? Anything else happening in your life? (Also Dorothy L Sayers wrote more Lord Peter Wimsey books, if you are interested. :vc )
Hello! Thank you for the not my birthday birthday gift!
I’m doing fairly well, enjoying my new temporary role and I even get to work from home sometimes!
Latin is difficult, although I’m fully prepared to let the nearest ancient Roman know that my sister writes in the city and my brother sleeps. It’s all progress, right?
So I either sleep shopped (yikes) or S did the thing again. Either way I suspect a thank you is in order!
So did you ever read 'Whose Body?' by Dorothy L Sayers? :vc (You got it in... April 2021.)
I did! I read it last year and enjoyed it very much, thank you! Definitely what one would call a ‘cosy mystery’, and Lord Wimsey is quite the memorable gentleman!
Learning Latin for any particular reason? Also yes he is perfect!!! Goodest boy.
Honestly? Because I think it’s really interesting and I’m also a little pretentious.
(Clearly the Goodest Boy!)
(This is not a threat. (Unless you are secretly Julius Caesar. In which case it is.))
Non sum Caesar, but I’m a hundred per cent behind the sentiment.
HAPPY IDES OF MARCH, HOPE YOU ARE FEELING BETTER!! 🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️
D'aww!
I’m sorry, this account is basically dead, which is probably why I’ve had so many bots follow me of late.
S - thank you dear heart for your continued support and generosity! I’m OK, but I think I’m just a bit burnt out. I just feel like I’m not going anywhere with anything, and I’m not really sure how to turn that around tbh. Blech.
I hope you or anyone reading this are having better days, and that tomorrow brings you many smiles.
I’m going to finish my glass of wine and read some Robin Hobb, because I’m wild like that.
My dearest S, you’ve struck again!
I’m so sorry I’ve been so quiet here, but before I get back to you properly I wanted to send you my continued gently baffled and appreciative thanks and <333.
By the way Amazon asks "if you are not there when we try to deliver, what would you like us to do?" or something, and then suggests neighbour, leave it on the porch, in a shed, etc. etc.; do you have an answer to that?
Kind’ve guessing that’s no longer an issue due to the MASSIVE parcel that arrived which has to be from you, you ridiculous generous gorgeous person!
(Totally called out via the gift note no contest.)
I am surrounded in alllll the Skyrim right now and it is my happy safe place <333
Thank you so so much.
Hello! How are you doing? Hope you have just been too busy for tumblr but are otherwise okay! ovo;; Hope the holidays will be good for you and you have something fun planned! (Also hope that the weather has been better over there. It was -14c here the other day. 8') )
Hello my friend! It’s been a bit of a mix as to why I’m not Tumblr-ing these days. I have been busy but I guess I’ve also just been a bit more down and tired these last few months than usual.
It’s much better now I’m finally off work for the year. :)
It’s been a wee bit Baltic here, but not as bad as you’ve experienced, yikes.
My fan heater is my current bff though, saves on having to put the heating on. Yay?
I hope you’re staying safe and warm!
