I've decided that I'd like to have a spiritual adviser. I did talk with the High Priestess, and it was so fulfilling. She gave me a beautiful little white heart stone that I can keep until I see her again, and we'll keep passing it back and forth as we charge it with our energy. What a wonderful concept.
I went to Arizona for four days, and I really missed Emory a lot. It was really busy. I spent the night with Jeffrey, and I actually crashed a little early, but woke up within a few hours. The weather wasn't too bad, but it is getting a little cold out in the desert at night. We watched Christmas light challenges, and a lot of the houses that won were in Arizona. I would love to have seen these homes in person.
Friday night, we went to Stir Crazy and saw Stoner Rob. He called our row out. I couldn't stop laughing because he asked what I did for a living. He also asked Steven what he did, and of course, Steven's job is pretty advanced, so it's hard to sum up. Stoner Rob summed it up pretty quickly and had us all rolling.
Saturday, we went shopping and got lunch, and ended up going to see Christmas Carol the musical. It was fantastic. I think I enjoyed it a little more than even Ann and Sue. It was so great.
On Sunday, we did a little more shopping. Ann got me clothes for Christmas. I can't say what I got her in case she reads these blogs. I wanted to do 12 days of Christmas for Emory, so I need to do a little more shopping to finish this little project. I think he's excited. I hope he's not disappointed in the gifts.
Oh, Steven said that the bag of popcorn I gave him, he already ate most of the bag. It was the mango habanero spicy stuff. Lucelle is working on the Puzzle Advent Calendar, which we bought her. Every day she wakes up and goes to her table to open a box and put her pieces together for the day. She said it's something she's going to keep. I'm so excited.
Sue is so sick right now and miserable. She is such a trooper though, and really toughed the trip out. Mozart got lots of love, but I think he's happy to be in a single dog home. He played with Ollie, but the excitement for him was short-lived.
I really wish I could have went thrift shopping or go to rummage sales. I love the neighborhoods and the things people sell. I find the neatest things.
I would like to do standup again. I was told that I'm pretty funny, but I think most people find my laugh to be more funny than me.
Writing Update:
I'm working on a few projects that are going nowhere. I just want to write drama/fluff and I needed to just pound out the plot bunnies onto paper so I've been working on these projects just to have something for myself.
I didn't work too much while I was in Arizona. I thought I'd have time to write. Now that I'm back, I'm trying really hard to get my projects finished. This might be long freaking projects.
I find that there aren't enough trans-characters in media so I am working on a horror project that I'd like to submit for next year to a publisher looking for LGBTQ projects. I want to make my trans woman a final girl. There is so much to understand so I can write this character with the best representation possible. I've been watching youtube/Instagram videos of women walking through everything from their thoughts on the process, the hoops that they have to jump through, etc. I think I might understand the medication, but I'm not 100% sure. This is exciting and scary because I love horror movies, but I don't know how to write these stories. Also, I'm so in love with my main character that I just don't want anything bad to happen to her, but there are rules to being a final girl. You have to go through a lot and I feel like it's going to be a rollercoaster of emotions to write.
