Your stop for the annual poetry fic challenge!

I meant to spend about five minutes on plant care and then proceeded to spend about an hour, instead, complete with running myself out of dirt. That's a bit how my weekend has gone, though? I've gotten a lot done.

I took a deep breath and pushed myself past one of my major mental blocks with archiving and it... wasn't bad? Like, I had bumped up against some very old stories that are... Listen, they were never good. And then I asked myself if I really wanted to archive them. Yes, I want them archived. Yes, I've posted them to mailing lists, to Geocities, to my own site, to AO3. I can post them to Neocities and DW. They will continue to be a part of what I've created.

I also reminded myself that I just have to archive them; I don't have to read them. I also wrote a couple of drabbles and then... also archived those! Super-easy, even though one needed a fandom page made. But super-easy! I like this.

Finished up MG Exia, who I totally didn't want to throw out a window multiple times last weekend, nope. He definitely had his moments, but overall I didn't hate the build. (Which is good because I'm going to be doing it a lot.)

I started on HG Sazabi, who will be a much-quicker no-frills build. I'm going to hold off on polls for a bit until I get through my own little to-do list. I still need to build the HG Calrea that got me back into this bullshit.

Caught up with purplehellebore for a birfday lunch and whatnot. Went to the home improvement store and did not buy a 9/16ths wrench. (But I had two people restraining me...) Got some paint from the nerd store. Finished up a prototype for a hollow book.

Shadowverse Worlds Beyond released the other day but the less said about that the better. We're already grousing on mobilegames.

Ugh, it's been hot and going to get hotter. The next week is going to be suffering.

Monday, got an oil change. I like my new mechanic! The shop is affordable and honest to a fault. They did a fairly thorough inspection and flagged a couple of things and when I went to schedule taking care of one of them, they insisted it wasn't a safety issue and that I'd be much better off saving up the money (because it will be pricey) and they'll see how things look next oil change. (Car is a decade old and this is apparently more of a 'x is starting to show a bit of wear' not 'x is about to fail'. I would have done the repair! So yeaaah, honest possibly to their own detriment, lol.)

Tuesday & Wednesday were help the 'rents days. Went a little hard on Tuesday but that just made Wednesday easier. On Tuesday, I waited around for packages that didn't arrive (they did, later, but beyond my timeframe)... I have another on the way from Bandai and I love the path their packages take. They always scan at a facility in Arizona called Navajo Nation which I assume is located in the greater Navajo Nation somewhere. Anyway, since the packages are always Gundams/Gunpla, I keep imagining Gundams and pilots stopping to admire the American Southwest and learning a bit about it.

We're back to shuffling things around at work, including my sanity. It has become a 'we all need to work on things as a team' but there's still no second shift and nobody leaves me notes. So I work on what the fuck ever and then reiterate that I am not psychic, leave me notes.

Weekend is going to be some errands and catching up with a friend for their birfday. Still picking up some things for the airbrush and whatnot. I definitely need a hygrometer and I also realized that I forgot to get primer. ^^;;

I have (at least temporarily) removed my Transformative Works Permissions Statements after an incident. It feels kinda bad but the incident feels really bad so I'm just gonna take some time and sort out some psychic damage and greater feelings.
