Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating. Mine will feature zero turkey and one matzo ball soup, so I am content.
Cat versus humidifier continues. It's like a TV show you don't like that keeps getting renewed every fall and there are constant new episodes until spring.
I am editing Chapter 11 of Qui Habitat (out of 18) and I kind of want to split it up into books, but that would generate new fic notices and I am just not going to do that to people who've been waiting eight years for me to finish it. I have realized way too far in that I need to figure out what happened to Cadman and I might have to retcon the bit I wrote in the summer to get her in there. I have to figure out what happened to a lot of people, granted.

This is what I'm reading and I'm enjoying it tremendously. It's the story of Oleg Gordievsky, a disillusioned KGB agent who became a spy for MI6 and it's ridiculous and more ridiculous for being true. Highly recommended, especially for Cold War kids.
The anniversary of the death of someone who loved you and abused you is complicated, especially when almost nobody IRL knows that you're an abuse survivor and assumes your only memories are good ones. Overwhelmingly they are. But as much as I love them and miss them and still feel the pain of their passing, I'm ever more aware that I am where I never could have been without their death and it's complicated to feel both loss and gratitude for that loss because it came with freedom.
