Good morning.
The cats were an absolute disaster last night. Wynni, the instigator, got a bug up her butt somewhere between 3 and 4am and started zooming around the apartment and picking fights with Wednesday. They didn't let up until I fed them at 5:30. I couldn't fall asleep until sometime after 7, and only slept until 9. This was after going to bed at ... 11:30? Midnight?
Anyway. The coffee is truly giving me life this morning.
It's funny; in the last year I've become far more of a night owl than I ever thought I would be. Somewhere between 10:30 and 11:30 is my usual bedtime these days, even though I have work at 7am. I know I'm not getting enough sleep, but in a weird way I can't bother to care right about now. It's what feels right for my body, so I guess I'm just going to keep going like this? At least until something changes.
I did a tiny bit of blog cleanup and will probably continue to do some more. I removed the feeds that I always skip, and I might be unfollowing some folks. It's nothing personal! Just that I've fallen so far out of touch with my reading page that there are a couple of people I added in a fit of excitement who I don't really know anymore/didn't stick around long enough to GET to know. And now that I'm doing
getyourwordsout and active in the discord, I am probably going to start adding some of the writers from that. Basically, I want to keep my page manageable.
Speaking of writing: In spite of being really out of it yesterday I had a really good writing day. Over 2k words. I'm behind where I want to be for the week (more lectures releasing on Thursday), but at least I made really good progress and am happy with the word counts from yesterday. I'm getting started a little earlier in the day and I don't have any afternoon/evening plans today, so I'm kind of hoping that I can just write write write and get ahead. Would love to write 3.5k today, but we'll see how far I get. I've been expanding the rune sections of my book for the course I'm teaching based on it, which means effectively doubling the word count for each rune so that they are all roughly around a 15 minute lecture. So thankfully it's material that I'm very well versed in, but it's also just a lot.
Anyway - I'm going to get started on that in a minute here. Will probably come back and edit with my word count for the day.
As the title of this blog suggests, I'm thinking of changing the name to Kraeftwerker, which is also what my tumblr is. I started blogging a little bit more on tumblr, but it's mostly a repository for aesthetic/pretty shit and my journaling hobby. I need to figure out how to post photos to dreamwidth, maybe tumblr will help with that? Anyway, if you want to follow me there too I'm

. I just want a little bit of consistency between the two. And to be honest, "vintagewitch" doesn't feel like it fits anymore. I created this username in my mid-twenties and so much has changed, and I want to reflect that change with a new name.
Anyway! Still thinking about it! Will update y'all in the subjects of blog posts so that you don't suddenly see a new name and go "wait who IS that?"
