Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

I've mostly been buying makeup (damn you MELT Cosmetics for directly targeting me!), vintage perfumes, and stickers from fan artists.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

A (few) new, or new-to-me tarot decks. Mid-cull and purge, mind you. (Is ashamed)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I've also been buying some original art from artists I know and sending it to friends for their birthdays. That seems like a double win supporting artists and gifting friends.

Because books.

I had to buy boring shirts for work, and two pairs of pants. Why she wants us in dark stuff in a fucking bakery is beyond me.

I've also binged on $1.99 Kindle deals. Like, a lot. But I did pick up some things for the house, and a new harness for the dog, which she Does Not Like At All.

Speaking of original art, Mr. Loomy is auctioning off what is probably his most iconic painting for M:tG. The auction starts Monday, and when it was announced to the FB group, people lost their damn minds.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, I have been getting the $1.99 kindle deals, too, and occasionally pricier books because damn it all I can do most days is read! I've been better about that this month than last month, but it was bad for a while.

That's very cool, Atropa!

I've also been getting audiobooks, because summer means an upswing in migraines.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I bought a dress to pretend I'm at the beach and not loafing around the house: [link] I'll wear it to loaf in our overhauled backyard when that project gets finished.

Also gym shorts, because I am loafing around the house and not at the beach. And I'm buying skin care but not makeup, because I almost never leave the house, and when I do, half my face is covered with a mask anyway.

I think I am all out of can for the day.

I've got an Audible subscription and I had stockpiled credits for a while so I was burning through those but now I have to wait another month for a new credit to get anything new. Audiobooks are a little rich for my blood, really, but I like them very much.
