Bits and pieces

☆ There's a prompt fest for historical person fiction going on right now at [community profile] 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 [community profile] 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.

There are a bunch of silly prompts and prompts that can be either silly or serious, depending. Have you seen the one about Catullus and Roxelana on a roadtrip through time or the one about Ching Shih IN SPACE?
