A hundred days have made me older since the last time that I saw your pretty face

It's Wednesday! And I have no idea what I'm in for at work. Will people want to get in before the holiday? Will it be absolutely dead? We'll find out today! It's definitely been busier the last bit, as everyone tries to get their MRI and CTs in before their deductible resets, but with the holiday tomorrow, I have no idea. Also no clue about Friday.

Tomorrow, we are having a fully cooked smoked turkey from Sam's Club and sides from Fogo De Chao. All that anything will require is heating. This is my ideal type of Thanksgiving. And it doesn't require that we go to Pennsylvania to get it. I know the sides will be excellent, and hopefully the turkey will be as well.

My manager got back to me about feedback for the job. I didn't get it purely because of my short tenure, but they'd "like to start incorporating me in Lead projects/roles," whatever that will mean. I have no idea.

Tonight, I'm going to go out with a friend from 911 and have dinner. Really, she's the only good thing that came from that job, and I'll enjoy spending time with her.

I don't know if you all saw, but Jess wrote fic for our D&D campaign.. As I told them, my favorite part of being a DM is watching the players expand on a story that I came up with. They inevitably go in directions I didn't expect, and my reactions change the story a little bit more, and so on. So when someone writes about it, be it in a bluesky post or on dreamwidth, or in fic, it's exciting because it means that something I did resonated with a player, enough that they wanted to talk about it. And that's cool.

That's my navel gazing thought for the day. And now, I shall go forth and get dressed and ready for work. Everyone have an excellent Wednesday!

I'm always a little sheepish about the fanfic and just how darn much of it I've written over this campaign, but this makes me feel glad I can show you how much what we've all created together means to me. you're an amazing DM, you've made such endearing or terrible or endearingly terrible NPCs, and I love the way your brain works. <3

You need to write another 2,000 words just so I'm not the only one who's written a novel based on this server. ;_;

hee! I think the way my brain has latched onto this campaign means another 2k is inevitable. XD

(also I love those snippets you've posted so much. <3)

Yesssssss.

(Thank you! I am honestly kind of bereft now that I've finished writing it. XD)
