Three things make a post

yuuago+ Some of my favourite clothes have been looking very worn-out lately. SO, I checked out every book the library has on mending, and bought some thread. We'll see how this goes. I've made attempts at fixing pinholes and whatnot previously, but always very slapdash, so hopefully it'll go better if I look up some how-to beforehand. Even if it turns out well, I won't be able to wear any of these to work any more, but that's all right - I'll demote them to exercise gear.
+ I've started reading the Citrus manga. A friend mentioned the title once, and I figured I'd take a look. At first I was a little put off by the risqué cover art, but there's more plot and character development than I expected. I'm actually enjoying it a lot more than anticipated; Yuzu is a lovely protagonist, and I like her a lot. Anime/manga titles that people recommend to me are usually either m/m or have m/m vibes, so reading something with f/f is a nice change of pace.
+ Will be drastically reducing internet use in the upcoming month(s). Partly this is due to current events. But mostly it's because, as usual, spring is the busiest season at my work, and I need to avoid straining my hands and hurting them from overuse. Of course, I'll still be reading all your entries! Just might not be able to respond. I will be available via DW comments and PM as always if anyone needs to contact me or just wants to say hi - just expect a longer response time than typical. <3
