Random stuff

Gratitude

- I ordered a Cameo for a coworker. She's been struggling a bit. The Cameo is with an actor who was in Harry Potter, which she likes. She told me she loves the Cameo.

- And I went into the office yesterday and had several nice interactions, including with my boss' boss.

Fandom and Fic

- After my latest Cameo from Sachin, I sent him a brief note just to say thanks and that it brightened my day. I often send him a short note after a Cameo. He usually doesn't reply, but he did this time, with a heart and a "same, same, Marianne". Awww

- My fandom friend Mia and I put together an outline for another possible fic. We've sat on it for a few days now and I don't know if we'll ever write it, but I'm glad it's there.

- The multi-chaptered fic I've been posting, I officially finished it and I really love it. I still have 3 chapters left to post - next one will go up today. I love that it just came out of a random brainstorm idea with Mia.

- And....you gotta laugh. Decided to write and post a quick Sinclair smutfic, under a pen name. It already has more hits than the above fic! Which is crazy, since: 1) I didn't promote it anywhere, since it's under a pen name and I don't have a fake Tumblr account to use for that, 2) It's one chapter, versus a multi-chapter fic. The multi-chapter one goes to the top of the pile each time I add a chapter, and 3) The multi-chaptered fic has been up for a much longer amount of time too. I guess: 1) People like smut, and 2) I did pair him with a popular character, so that might've helped. Still is funny though

- Someone posted on Tumblr with a "will write for pay" post. (Sometimes people do that. They say they need money, they say 'here are the fandoms I'll write in, please pay me to write something for you'). I've paid more than once, glad to help someone out who needs it and get a fic in return. With this one, I asked them if they'd write something with Sinclair, they said yes please, I made a downpayment. I look forward to seeing what I get!

- Also, I found a gem of a video....Alessandro in 1998 wearing feminine clothing for a role. Of course if this character was supposed to be a trans woman, then for god's sake, they should've hired a trans woman and not a cishet man to play her. But I can't tell from the clip exactly what is going on here. He does look fricking gorgeous though!! I've never seen him wearing femmy clothes before. And Alessandro's hot now, but in 1998 he was especially lovely. 

Body TMI

- I got an actual period this week. My last few beforehand were like....Idk pseudo-periods, with just a tiny bit of dark blood. Got a full-on period this time, complete with the horniness I've always gotten before the period and during its first day. I am going to miss this a lot. (All throughout my life, I've gotten really horny right before the period and on its first day or so. Since my periods have been departing, I've missed this).

- Just random wonderings....Why do I weigh myself every week? Why do I do it? On the good news side, I don't really angst when the number on the scale is higher than I want. Just wondering like why do I do it in the first place? Habit? I like to 'check a box' and quantify something? Fear that if I do gain "too much" then my clothes won't fit? Sizist culture we live in? Hmmmm.
