Egad, what a joyous day it is to have eyeballs on the Internet. I make Things and contend with Ailments. Welcome to chaos. Hehe.

It is storming outside and Emerson taught me how to play dominos today.
It was pretty fun although he kicked my ass. I also saw this prompt about small spells to do on your birthday, and half of an enormous poem formed in my head while I was taking my 30 minutes of boredom based on the suggestion to write a letter to yourself a year ago even…

Emerson and I went to the local Hispanic grocery store today!

I read for 45 minutes on accident, I feel like I performed for far too long. However, mk seems to have had no issue with it. Emerson also got video of much, if not all, of the set, so y’all can expect videos in the next few days. Now I’m just chilling and watching Charlotte…

Emerson and Ashley went to Honeybee Sage yesterday and Ashley read two poems.
They will roll out elsewhere on social media in early June, but I am going to share them here now. He kicked absolute ass, and tbh I think he’s a natural performer. I think he did better than me. -Allēna
