At least we had chocolate

schneefinkToday there was a remembrance march for the victims of the terror attack in Vienna, with several hundred people, and I'm looking at the latest COVID infection numbers and worry. Not the most important but a personal concern, I really don't want to have to work from home again. I'm very bad at it.
Between the terror attack, the pandemic, the US elections, and my uni deadline... yesterday was a bad brain day (at least I went for a run), but today it almost felt like it all balanced out, and I enjoyed the brownies with sprinkles we made yesterday and and felt surprisingly calm. Still did not manage to get any uni work done, however.
Edit: I did manage a few paragraphs after all, which is better than nothing. Small steps.
I also posted a very short Skyjacks snippet about Travis getting bitten by a werewolf that I wrote forsholio's comfortfest back in September: Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, Full Moon.
I used to be more hesitant about posting stories but by now I figure that if even one person liked it then it's a net positive. I'm also currently editing a Skyjacks Star Wars fusion and more Dice Disasters fic, and I need to start working on my Yuletide fic beyond brainstorming.
