News from the Charging Station

Recharging has been going well! I've allowed myself to just chill and do things as they occur to me/catch my interest, no pressure at all, and that's been working out so far (I mean, I do have to buy groceries/do the cooking, but luckily living in a 4 adults household means everyone else picks up some of the necessary chores too, and they've allowed me to relax after the stress of applications double-week).
I've been re-reading a lot of comfort fic, mostly Teen Wolf (which is tempting me to actually watch a season of the show, which I haven't lol). I've also skimmed the occasional research that came across my dash and caught up on British politics via the Big Dog's Adventures posts.
I also started listening to Welcome to Night Vale again from the start. I used to listen to it while it was on-going back in '12-'14 before I got too depressed and sleep-deprived (and didn't remember the plot well enough because like. Neither depression nor sleep deprivation are conducive to memory). I tried getting back into it back in '18 but couldn't figure out where I had left off. So I figured starting from scratch is the way to go! I'm into Year 2 now, and I remember a lot more about these early episodes than I thought. I'm getting close to the live show where I'm pretty sure the mayoral election happened.
In dancing news, the heat really put a damper on my Exercise Daily! plan lol. Doesn't help that I fucked over my sleep schedule (and due to health issues I needed 10 hour sleeps for the first couple days) and it's not like I can put on music and hop around at 4am. Tho I did do one with the rising sun outside today, as was originally the plan for summer heat!
Anyway, I added a tutorial for HIP by Mamamoo (which I'm playing at 75% even if the slow section is already slowed down to 50% because I need precision before I need speed, especially in this heat wave), a chorus tutorial for Honey by Solar (of Mamamoo), and mirrors of Dreancatcher's
Jiu's Cherry and Beauty Full by Dreamcatcher's Dami. Both these mirrors are not... ideal because they're fancams of concerts, but since DC hasn't put out dance practices (and at this point I'm kinda doubting they will, since the choreos are kinda easy) I'm dealing with what I have. Considering adding Gahyeon's Playground to the mix if I can even find a mirror in the first place. Playful beat and easy dance is just what I need while it's hot!
(Also I'm grumpy about the health issues, but I won't bore you, it's just more of the same. Chronic illness sucks.)
Now that I've regained some energy, I'm hoping to get back into the swing of writing, catching up on Guardian fanfic, and my long-due Guardian rewatch!
