The Basics (Can't Really Change Them) Name: Belleweather, or Belle. (not my real name, but the one I use on the Internet) Age: 43 Location: I'm an American, currently living in Latvia.
Currently, what are you... ... Reading? The Dawn of Everything, which is a super-dense book about the Neolithic and how we're reconciling our ideas of history and the meaning of humanity in light of new evidence. Lotharingia, which is about the part of Europe that my family is from but I don't like as much as I want to. Scum Villain's Self-Saving System, which is definitely the funniest of the MXTX Novels. As well as lots of miscellaneous fanfiction. ... Watching? Outlander, Vincenzo, Nirvana in Fire, Homestead Rescue (guilty pleasure) ... Listening to? Lots of old-school Pop Punk, some newer Latvian folk-rock, and lots of atmospheric things that I can put on at work without bothering my staff. ... Playing? Bejeweled. Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Pandemic: Legacy S.2 ... Working on (job-wise and/or leisure-wise)? Job-wise I'm totally buried in requests to help support for displaced people from Ukraine and Russia and Belarus. Leisure-wise, I have four sweaters I've knitted but haven't finished the sleeves on, and a mess of roving to spin into more yarn so I can make more sweaters. Also, I'm trying to figure out how to buy a fleece in a language I only sort of speak. ... Looking forward to? Summer! My garden! The Lilac festival! Planning more travel now that things are opening up! ... Worried/concerned/annoyed about? I mean, super super concerned about Russian Aggression in Europe, obviously. My husband is interviewing for a job next week, so concerned about that. And super annoyed about the sudden lack of napa cabbage on the local market, which translates into less Kimchi fried rice to put in my face.
What were your last three LJ entries about and when did you post them? I just (like, just!) got back from vacation so apart from the one I just posted about our trip to Paris, my last entry was last week, before we left and was about work and Ukraine. Before that, I posted about planning the vacation and how excited I was to get new downstairs neighbors.
