ellerLife's good. :3
- MAIL! I had three (!) letters fromyhlee (they bundle them, definitely), and also lovely holiday mail from james, rodo and franklanguage. YAY! Thank you soooo much! :D
- Food! I had a food delivery, and now we have enough food again. Two eggs were cracked but otherwise everything looks wonderful. We're planning to have raclette again; this time with a somewhat larger variety of vegetables. We have bell peppers and zucchini and mushrooms and onions and potatoes, now! :D (Wouldn't have thought last year this would be a reason to cheer, but there you go.)
- Chess! Almost through with the book I'm reading. Also, did some tactics training on lichess. They added new puzzles, which is nice.
- Writing! I'm motivated, although no matter what I do, fic becomes crackfic. Had two ideas for chess stories. One is just weird (a very dramatic game of chess with human pieces in an allotment garden association) and one is... even weirder, I guess. A Nibelungenlied chess crossover with the characters showing up at a chess tournament. I'm horrified by myself. (Also: discovered that Hagen is too self-destructive to play properly, no matter how good he is at scheming andliteral backstabbing.) All very appropriately trashy.
- Exchangepanic excitement! There's already seven people requesting Something With Chess, and yes, I'm keeping track... COMPETITION! NOOOO! (Half-kidding... But I was amused when yhlee pointed out to me that stories are open for all to read anyway... Because that's just not how I think. XDDD)
