Shouldn't have travelled. Then you'd be at 12:18 instead of 6AM

Also; why is it "photos" and "footage" and not "fotos" and "photage"?

Bought some spaghetti squash yesterday to try my hand at making healthy spaghetti, I might make it tomorrow. I've been cutting out a lot of sweets and fatty foods with some exercise so hopefully that should help out in losing this weight.
In other news:
To answer a PM question on why I stop doing the RE LP's. I just can't get into doing Let's Plays, I like making gameplay videos and showing off collectibles and other odd things. Sorry for that

I just got back from meeting Margaret Killjoy at a book reading/signing even she did at the Ann Arbor Library. It is an hour and a half drive in each direction. So I almost did not go. But I am glad I did, even though I was late because of construction on the roads (there is always construction on the roads in Michigan).
It was fun. She had the voice actress Jackie who did the audiobook for her new book - the Sapling Cage. Jackie read the second chapter of it. She also did the first chapter on Margaret's podcast Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff. She was a really good reader. She has the voice for it. It was really cool to meet her too. I might buy the audiobook version of it, since I don't read much books in print anymore, but I do spend a lot of time listening to podcasts and the readings of short stories, like the audiobooks I have of Lovecraft's works.
Oh look, here it is!. I was the one who asked the first question
here toward the end, about whether she was going to write anymore Danielle Cain books. No one was saying anything, so I just brazenly spoke up and go the ball rolling. I don't think you can hear me, since Jackie did not get over to me with the microphone until I was nearly finished asking it.

Maybe it’s the app then? When I hit the link, it automatically connects to the app.

You were very brave to speak up like that! Those kinds of silences are really uncomfortable but introverted me would rather sit there quietly than to suddenly be thrust into the spotlight.

The stories they were reading seem like fun! The knight story was really funny!

That used to be me, but I'm more outspoken now and if I wanted to ask something no one else did, I would probably do it.

A video titled (LINK) "
How to Annoy an Introvert Without Even Trying" (LINK) appeared on my YouTube recommendation page a while back. Loner and recluse that I am, I gave it a look-see. I even took the test linked below the video, pinging at 100% introverted, which I wholly agree with. As to the introvert subset it saddles me with, some of those traits apply to me only situationally/conditionally. Or so I believe. As to the video itself, while the presenter and I differ in our introversion, as a generality I agree with her on all points. I especially enjoyed her talk about an introvert's "social battery".

Fellow introvert here, and I fully know what it means to have your social battery drained. Even amongst good people I enjoy spending time with, at a certain point enough is enough and I just wanna go home and be alone.
Maybe have another look-see at Frank James' channel, Decrepit. He does some funny videos about being an introvert. I can say he totally nails it

I watched the link, then "16 Personalities as Video Game NPCs". I didn't really get the personalities video until it got to the ISTP NPC. ISTP being the introvert type the test saddles me with. Bingo! I related to that NPC from the get-go.

I was listening to a song the other day about a girl who mentioned she was not that old when she first met someone else. She was apparently standing outside, I think on a balcony or so, and it was summer. At one point she closed her eyes and then her memories, or flashbacks, of that day allegedly started.
Maybe I should ask Khajiit if he knows this song. I bet he does
