Various bits and pieces

First things first: Hours at my job are supposed to start picking up again in the next few weeks 😭👍 I am so relieved. I was this close (picture a tiny amount) to looking for a new job. I'm kinda considering it anyway, TBH; I'd love to have a classic M-F 9-5 deal, so I can do my Pokémon Go events without asking for time off, etc.

Next! My eye has been giving me trouble the past few months. I initially got some drops for it, and it went away, but then it came back, so I went back to the eye doctor and got more drops. What I have is called "episcleritis", and it's painful and irritating and I recommend against getting it if at all possible. I understand that this recommendation would be more helpful if I had any advice on how to avoid getting it, but sadly, I do not.

Finally, I need to remember to try and get some worldbuilding stuff done for Avery and Zeek; specifically, I want to think about what Zeek's people (and that world's merfolk in general) eat, and especially how they preserve food. So that'll be a fun thing to learn more about, I think.

Filter?

I've decided to create a filter for Mershark Madness/Avery and Zeek stuff, just for my own peace of mind. (I'm contemplating publishing this at some point, so unless I go to like. Royal Road(?) or something, keeping stuff more locked down rather than less is probably the way to go.)

Are you interested in being on the filter? There's no obligation to interact with any of the Mershark Madness posts I make, but if you want to keep up with whatever I'm doing with it beyond vague progress reports, this would be the way to do it.
