Hello my friends! I have not done this in 80 bazillion years, which is apropos since I haven't done a lot of things in 80 bazillion years. Like, I used to write. I used to have ideas. But I've been going to school (getting my BS in psych) and working and doing the booster club thing, so I've been busy and so brain-full that creativity has been restricted to those things. However I'm in my last quarter of school and I'm on summer break from the job, and hockey season hasn't started yet, so I thought I'd try to get back into the habit of being human and stuff.

I spent the past weekend at my mom's helping her with her annual garage sale. It was fine, and we always have fun, but it's a multi-person garage sale, and one of the ladies that is there (who is a good friend of my mom's) drives me a little bit bonkers because she never. stops. talking. Which I guess is good because it makes me get up and walk around.

I bought a walking pad a while ago and haven't used it, but I'm working on getting back into a rhythm with it. Luckily I have decided to do it during the hottest days of the year so far, because that's how I roll. This would likely not be a thing if we had an air conditioner, but we don't, so there you have it.

My other goals this summer are to do some mini-adventures, rewatch Generation Kill, listen to serial killer podcasts, read a bunch of books, graduate, sleep a lot, and come up with ideas for hockey season. For today, goals are to do some errands, do the walking pad, then do some school stuff. I got a late start because I didn't really sleep at my mom's, so I slept in today which was amazing and I approve of it. We'll see if I can manage adding posting here to the summer goals as well.

And, because I wouldn't be the person I am now without it - I shall shout out two of my bb!hockeys - Carter Bear and Shea Busch who got drafted this year to the Detroit Redwings and the Florida Panthers respectively. So proud of my boys. (my kids are my kids, the kids I work with at school are my kids, and the hockey kids are the boys. It's kind of a system).

Anyway, hi friends! I have been reading about your lives, I promise. I love you all.

Since I've been fighting a migraine for the last four days, I didn't think there was anyway I was going to finish my story by the [community profile] intoabar challenge deadline.

But somehow, I did!

So, here it is, Illya Kuryakin walks into a bar and meets...Bucky Barnes!

Two of my biggest fandom collide! I couldn't have picked a better pairing myself.

The assignment let me pull out a fragment I've had kicking around forever with young KGB agent Illya Kuryakin getting pulled in as a last minute replacement for the Winter Soldier's handler. Which turned it into a multi-timeline 8K mini-epic. (When I told him what my word count was looking like, my husband just said "Of course you did.")

Five days to go until the [community profile] intoabar deadline, and I've just crossed 7,000 words on my mystery story. Two scenes, a title, and an edit to go, and I may actually finish this sucker on time.

Fingers crossed.

I went to see Materialists this afternoon. Partly to get away from this hideous heat though I was planning on seeing it in any event. It got me thinking that the last time I actually went to the theater to see a movie it was Knives Out. Call it the Evans effect. 😀

I enjoyed it quite a bit. It's a decent rom-com that definitely has something to say about dating and "checking all the boxes."

The acting was good but Dakota Johnson somehow managed to not have much chemistry with either Pedro Pascal or Chris Evans imho.

Chris Evans looks especially soft and huggable in it.
