I’d Like To Take A Moment: A Bulleted List of Life Events

It’s been over two years, and it feels like a lifetime. So many things have happened in the world and with me personally. Those things were just taking shape when my last post went live. I was in a bad place, mentally and emotionally. But that place got me to a place that is ultimately so much better. So, here is a bulleted list of most of the things that have changed in my life, in no particular order.

An Exciting Announcement!

So, I’ve known about this for a minute, but I’ve been having trouble processing it. Here’s the deal: one of my short stories, “Purple Shoes”,  has been accepted into an anthology.

giphy1

Yeah, like a real, honest-to-god person, looked at my little story and said: “Yes, this is good, we want this.”

Yeah, the anthology is on pre-order here, and the book goes live in September. I’m still in a little bit of shock, honestly. Here, let me give you guys an accurate representation of me after I read the acceptance email:

So, yeah, check it out! It’s a cute little story and I’ve already read a few of the others and they’re pretty good too 🙂 Okay, I’m gonna go back to processing my shock now.

josh-peck-what-is-wrong-with-me

Sorry guys. I know that my life sort of fell apart, but that in itself is not incredibly unusual (as long-time readers are probably aware).

Anyway, we’re just gonna jump right in and pretend that’s normal. Okay? Okay.

Weekend binging is apparently the method of the moment for the second month in a row. Blessings on Imaginary Boyfriend for putting up with me (again). However, the individual goals didn’t work out quite the way I expected. Let’s break it down!

As you can probably see, I did a lot of my work on the weekends this month. A million blessings from whatever deity happens to be listening on poor Imaginary Boyfriend for putting up with me. Seriously. My weekdays have been taken up by so many things lately, it’s made it so difficult to get anything done. Alright, let’s break it down.

Fog’s Cute Animal Of The Month

The cute animal of the month is…

20152f112f232fc12fseaslug-58244

The blue dragon nudibranch! Species name Glaucus atlanticus, aliases include the sea swallow, blue angel, blue glaucus, blue dragon, blue sea slug and blue ocean slug. They’re only about three centimeters long and they have the coolest camouflage! They float on the surface of the water (upside down, hardcore parkour! ;P) so one side is blue to match the color of the ocean from above, and the other side is silver to blend in from underneath!

I gotta be honest though, these little suckers are dangerous af, while also being cute.

blue-dragon-sea-slug-fb
DO NOT LET THAT CUTE FACE FOOL YOU, THEY WILL LIGHT YOU UP…

Their natural food source is the Portuguese man o’ war, okay? These suckers do not play around! And the reason they’re so dangerous (and you do NOT want to pick one up, okay, just don’t) is that as they are eating the man o’ war, they store the venomous bits in their tendrils, and then concentrate that shit, so it’s even worse! Seriously, these guys are so bad ass, I actually can’t even…

See you guys next time!
