Bits and pieces

☆ There's a prompt fest for historical person fiction going on right now at
historyfest. Prompting closes tomorrow (Mar 15th), so if any of y'all are interested and have ideas, now's the time to put them in. I was waffling a bit because I'm shy about my ideas/interests, and there aren't really any that I can fill (as of writing this) but then I said "fuck it" and threw some in the pile. Maybe I will find something I can write. (As an aside, I had no idea how much I wanted van Gogh/Gaugin until now. Well then.)
☆ I had my ears pierced yesterday. Rather glad for it - I miss wearing earrings. Had them done as a kid, but it never healed up because it wasn't done properly, and eventually I just got tired of having trouble putting them in and let it close. And now here we are. More than just being glad that I finally got it done, though, I'm glad that I managed to do it without getting shy/nervous/whatnot. I'm always happy with myself when I succeed in doing something new without working myself into a fuss.
☆ Booked a vacation for Victoria BC in June... Hopefully work will have slowed down by then. I'm not quite sure what I'll do over there - I've already done most of the Things You're Supposed To Do As A Tourist. I have a feeling that it'll just be relaxing, and lots and lots of writing. And I think I might try working on getting better at photography and drawing, maybe. There's hardly a shortage of pretty landscapes and buildings over there, so.
☆ Signups for
nordipalooza will open on March 21st. If you're in the Nordic side of Hetalia fandom, and are interested in creating fanwork, mark that on your calendar.
☆ The weather has been lovely lately! But the cold isn't over yet. Knowing March, we're bound to get some chills next week. For those in cold climates: PLEASE remove the ice on your driveways and sidewalks, if you have them. This time of year can be very dangerous.
