Today’s deck is the Steampunk Faerie Tarot.

It would be so good if I was into steampunk OR fairies.
One of these days I’m gonna spell it “Faery” only for the deck to actually use the word “fairy” and when that happens I’m gonna cry.
Lots of reversed Hermits lately. Today’s reading continues the general trend lately of “shit’s tough man” but with a “you’ll be faced with choices you gotta defend” flavor.

So I started a project I cannot talk about, but here’s the essential elements I CAN talk about: It is a proper project with staff rather than my usual “I’m making this by myself for me” affair, and it involves actual creative writing rather than just approval or paperwork
I was typing words and making stories for work.
I was doing worldbuilding with the intent of it being towards a paid thing.
I was doing the thing I tend to do more in a plan of “fuck it I need to stretch my creative muscles” in the midst of eternal paperwork.
THIS is supposed to be my job, THIS is the thing I’m supposed to be putting up with bullshit for.
Not to see a gift horse in the mouth by man why can’t this happen more often?

It’s good that it happened though because the latter part of the day was spent basically calling people back and forth all night (because timezones) and let me tell you, if I wasn’t riding the high of Doing Fun Work I would’ve been screaming into a pillow and then eat the pillow.
Things reached a point where I couldn’t do anything even if I wanted so I decided to treat myself by making a quick post in the Uma Musume blog.

There’s gonna be stress for a bit more and the ocean keeps calling me. Let’s see when I heed the call.
