Things that lowkey made me cry today:

"Lay down your load (lay down your load)
We are only down the road (we are only down the road)
We have no gifts, but we are many
And we'll do anything for you"

- "All of Us" from Encanto

It is a long way to Mordor retirement, but I have so many people helping me in little ways each day, it truly breaks my heart.

I bit less of a cryptic introduction that in my profile is as follows. I am a woman in her 30's, professional person, married, and living in an undisclosed urban location with my partner and 3 cats. I prefer to keep my personal life very much separate from my professional identity, so I won't disclose much more for identifying characteristics.

I bob from fandom to fandom, and right now I am back into The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, both of which I grew up on. I also have a longstanding interest in Japanese culture that predates my obsession with anime. I have many fond memories of the early 2000's blogosphere where I roleplayed, wrote fanfiction, and engaged in beautifully cringey teenage antics that I might otherwise wish to forget.

If I went on vacation, I would either drink in the sun and salt in Hawaii, or spend a week sleeping. Fighting demons is a perennial hobby.

Entries from here on out will likely be friends-locked.

“From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”


― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
