yuuago☆ So, apparently a fossilized dinosaur brain exists in the world. I think that's pretty cool.
☆ Today, I worked on a fic that isn't for an exchange for the first time in quite a while, and it felt so good. (More on that later, maybe.) Think I needed a little break from exchange fic, ahaha. But soon we'll get into it again. :D
☆ Someone is putting together a Hetalia charity fanzine, Silver Linings, to raise money for hurricane relief in Haiti. How nice! More info here. I've decided to apply to write something for it, and I already have a couple of ideas. It'll be a little while before I receive an answer on whether I'll be accepted for it or not; I'll probably get in, but I'm crossing my fingers regardless. Anyway, if any of you fanwork-creators who're still into Hetalia are interested in this, you should totally apply too! They accept both fic and art.
☆ I'm only 4 candies away from having enough to evolve a Dratini into a Dragonair, and I am SO PLEASED. Not to mention all the adorable Cubones I've been catching. I've definitely been loving the Halloween Event in Pokemon Go. I wonder what the next event will be? A winter event with increased appearances of ice pokemon, maybe...?
☆ I stumbled across the section in the library where they keep most of the contemporary poetry, huzzah. This definitely means I'll be reading more of it. The selection isn't half as big as I'd like, but y'know, it's there.
☆ Should probably take a little break from the ol' intertubes soon. Not for social reasons! It's just, my wrist hurts like a motherfucker. Hello RSI, my old friend. Work's been tough, and I've been knitting a lot, and tl;dr, I haven't been kind to myself lately. Time to find other ways to keep myself occupied! Shouldn't be all that hard - I have lots of books to read, and I don't write with my injured hand, so that's more than enough right there. But man, what a pain in the ass.

Mine acts up sometimes too, between being on the computer at work all day and then all the internet-ing and drawing when I'm at home. Comes and goes though, which I guess is better than happening all the time.
