The Now Now

General

It's my birthday on September 22, which falls on the Autumn Equinox this year! I'll update this page with how I spend my bday and the start of *the best season* soon.

Last month, my sister told me I have caged tiger syndome, and this month, she told me to "turn your enclosure into a jungle." Taking it somewhat literally, I am now looking at painting the walls in my room green, specifically Benjamin Moore's Rolling Hills. "The color of wet, verdant earth, this hue features a versatile mix of green and gray tones."

I just realized that my computer is incompatible with the imminent Windows 11 force-update, but I feel like it still has a lot of life in it and I cannot justify dropping hundreds (thousands?) of dollars on a new machine. So, my brother has finally won the battle in convincing me to switch to Linux. I think I'll start with Linux Mint. I have some work to do before switching though, like backing up my computer... Ugh it's going to take a long time.

Postcrossing in full swing again! My account is still very new, meaning I'm only allowed to send five postcards at a time. I sent them all at once, so now I have to wait [weeks, probably] until at least one of those postcards reach their destination before I can send another. I'm itching for more letter writing/snail mail, so I'm ALSO thinking about signing up for this upcoming round of International Geek Girl Pen Pals.
