Currently Vol. 26

via

This was the first post that greeted me as I checked my Facebook feed on my way home tonight, and with the caption Take a little hug holiday today. #hugitout, it couldn't have been more apt. I am breaking out and got an awful haircut and now I look like a prepubescent boy, I got rained on even though I had my yellow umbrella with me, and I got into a mini fight (our first!) with my guy. If there's any day when a hug holiday would be ideal, that would be today kthanx.

CURRENTLY Vol. 26

READING
Alternative Alamat. I am the newest addition to the #StrangeLit: Paranormal/ Paranormal Romance/ Urban Fantasy workshop sponsored by Buqo and I am equal parts excited and scared and thrilled and anxious!

WRITING
An outline of my #StrangeLit story in my head. I've always loved stories that has a bit of strange magic in it, most notable of which are Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's Good Omens, Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus, and Robin Sloan's Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore. My fingers are tingling. Expect a story about malevolent wish-granters and wishes gone wrong from me, folks!

LISTENING TO
The angry howl of the rain coupled with a generous serving of thunder and lightning. I am so glad to be home.

WEARING
My favorite pair of PJs that I wear when I want to feel better.

THINKING
Of the things I'm trying not to think about. I am losing this battle.

FEELING
Tired because of work, sad because of all the things that happened today, happy because I finally got a case for my new work phone, and excited for the new plot brewing in my head.

LOVING
Aside from my new yellow case for my new work phone? My new work pen and new stash of Post-Its. I have learned to take pleasure in the littlest things.

WANTING
A weekend away from the city. Star-watching by the beach would be perfect.

NEEDING
To budget my money to make said weekend away from the city a reality.

WISHING
Someone would be kind enough to get me a Grand Romantic CD! Read this for context. (Still the same from last week's Currently!)

Oh, I just made up with my guy. All is well in the world again.

Can you believe it's almost *gasp* July?? Gosh! Have a great week/ month ahead, my friends! ♥
