An October update
Oct. 17th, 2026 11:11 amHi, friends! (Or whoever is reading this XD)
I think saying "it's been a while" is a little redundant when it's October and my last (non-exchange-letter) blog post was in January - actually, it's quite funny to look back at my archives and see my January post bookended by two "dear Festividder" letters xD
I was working on another post to go up before this - a meta essay about the various Spider-Man movieverse adaptations, something I'm excited to write! - but I haven't managed to pick it up since I started it a few weeks ago, and then suddenly I had to scramble to make sure I didn't miss the boat for this year's Festivids sign-ups 😅
So, rather than trying to finish a big post, I thought I'd put together a short update on some fandom and hobby-ish things I've been up to lately. Life is gonna life, but I feel better when my DW isn't just an empty space punctuated by exchange letters, and I had an unexpectedly free day today as some plans fell through. I wasn't too upset by that, since I needed the break 😆 I just got back from visiting a fandom friend who lives in Ireland, and tomorrow I'm flying to Denmark on a combined work trip and visit to one of my oldest online friends, which will be amazing as it's the first time I've come to them in more than 10 years! (We've seen each other in the interim, but I benefit from living in a big international hub that people pass through of their own accord, and so I'm usually not the one who has to go anywhere xD)
Anyway! Update! What have I been doing since I last wrote?
