on talking to myself in public, part of a series

Note to self: sleeping until 7:30 does not make you a bad person, it makes you a tired person.

(especially since you did get up at 5am when there was a crash outside - reaching for Softwing as you went, yay reflexes- and then again at 6am to feed the cats, and fell asleep again with the light on)

You're awake now, and productive (even if not by your apparently insane levels) and there's nothing wrong with anything that can't be fixed by skills you already have. Even with an hour less in the day.



Also: your irritation with Certain People does not make you a bad person, it makes you a person who has little patience for mansplanning and a particular set of Privilege.

Your willingness to tear a strip of hide from those people may make you a bad person, at least from their POV. If so, you can live with that.

You are allowed to be tired. And wound up by mansplaining.

Not so much wound up as very very tired of/by.

What is Softwing?

My ninjatō, which yes, I know, is not a historically accurate sword, but unless my home intruder is a massive geek, they're not going to stop and argue the legitimacy of the weapon aimed at their throat...



(I was hanging out by a sword-seller's table many many years ago, just talking, handling the sharp shiny pretties, picked this one up, and could not put her down. Perfect length, perfect weight....)
