It’s almost 3:24 AM here.
I can’t sleep yet, a blizzard is supposed to be hitting anytime now, and the view from our kitchen window looks like an early Songs: Ohia song translated into imagery. It’s weirdly beautiful in a #MidwesternGothic sorta way. -Allēna

Our left hand.
It, along with the rest of the left side of our body, was irreparably affected by a massive stroke coming up on 27 years ago. We can’t move any finger but our pointer finger and thumb independently of each other, leading us to joke that we have 1.33 hands 🤣 #NEISvoid -Allēna

This is what complex grief looks like for me.
A first attempt, anyway. I’m feeling a lot re: the state of the world and things and it’s bringing a lot of emotions to the surface I didn’t have words for before. #complexgrief #cptsd #NEISvoid #digitalart #chronicpain -Allēna

How to be a web designer:
1. Open your web design program. 2. Sin. 3. Attempt to atone for your sins when the first sins didn’t turn out right. 4. Scream when you wonder if being a web designer is atonement for some sin in and of itself. 5. Repeat until the project works. -Allēna #WebDesign

I just saw a blogging prompt that went like “if there were a biography about you, what would the title be?”
Well… Lemme tell y’all. For years, I’ve wanted to write a tongue in cheek memoir about my system’s misadventures called How To Win At Life. 🤣 -Allēna #Lore #Memoir #Autobiography

So I joined Finch..
And after all of the technology related screaming about needing a rubber duck to cuss at yesterday, guess what one of my partners sends me on this fucking app. A rubber duck. I already had cute aggression from this app. Now I have TURBO cute aggression. #FinchApp -Allēna

My overnight bag is some bag of holding bullshit.
I swear, contents include: -every vape I’ve ever owned -an Apple II (at the very bottom, for safekeeping purposes) -everything EXCEPT the thing I’m looking for -portal to a parallel universe (TBD) -Allēna #AuDHD #NEISvoid #objectimpermanence

I am slowly winding down for sleep.
But my brain is taking forever and a day to cooperate, so I am here, alas, posting again. I don’t know if such things are necessarily helpful, but here we are. At least it’ll help me detangle the Gordian knot that is my brainhole. -Allēna

Anyone else feel like such a tightly compressed ball of emotions that they could just do this?
I sure fucking do. So… Be fucking warned, I am using my emotions to create stuff and nonsense and it’s beautiful. -Allēna

Chilling in my blanket lump.
“You Are The Apple” by Lady Lamb never fails to be a fucking banger. -Allēna
