Oh, I'm very happy I don't give in to negative feelings and came to the gym. It was so worth it and I feel so good.

Just got railed on my Japanese taxes. Good God. Love having to pay that higher amount while the US threatens to subject me to double taxation if I ever go over a set amount.

なんとか生きています🥹🥹🥹 I've been main charactering a bit too close to the sun lately and I didn't need it, but got all my Trauma (with a capital T because it's the real shit) thrown in my face via what I am translating. 🥹🥹🥹 Am I going to survive? Who knows! Find out Saturday after therapy!

Today I have been emailing, editing and adjusting my schedule for Feb. 🫠 Whyyyy is there so much work to be done? Like I'm happy, but also, I'm pre-exhausted. I need to pay better attention to my schedule. Like, I forgot about the Kickstarter I'm translating for that goes live in a few weeks. Lol

Finally done with today. Today was a busy day. I came home from Nagoya, cooked, cleaned, did a ton of laundry, revived this account and my japanese bluesky account, and then proceeded to put more time into Ng+ on Chrono trigger because why not. Tomorrow's a busy day. Hell, so is this week.

@cjtea.bsky.social hi gorg 💙

Oh. I just remembered this existed. I should use it more over the bad site. 😂

Just had a 15-minute, "but who am I to judge?" Conversation. Electrolytes recharged. ☑️

I kept forgetting this exists... Whoops

健康診断 set up for the 20th of January. The documents came today and of course they say expect to get your torso measured. Which is just gravy. I do the blood and pee tests before, so I'll be pointing to those then the doctor goes, "have you thought about losing a few kilos..."

Three days as a blob on the couch was nice. Now to bang out these 2 volumes of manga and then wine dinner and I'm freeeeeeeee.

It's really sad/wild to see how Netflix is handling the translation of both Pluto and Onmyoji. Maybe it's the curse of being bilingual, but they're playing it fast and loose. I just don't know if I should blame the translator, the editor, or Netflix. It's taking liberties either way.

I keep forgetting this thing exists because it's so oddly dead. Uhhhhhh making bank. Killing it with tons of work. And I'm recording some of my highest earning weeks as of late. So... Joy.

See? I'm doing the physical therapy before actually going to physical therapy later.

Made my first block on here. ☺️☺️☺️ Glad to know I don't have to see them here either.

Fleeing the Tokyo metro area this weekend is going to be my saving grace this autumn. Nikko and Kinugawa away from people, here I come! *Also now features more nihonshu*

Proofreading with me is 50/50. You either get corrections and I adjust the translation as needed with no feedback, or it's a nuclear missile into a black hole because the translation is so bad and the style guide was not followed. Idk, I feel like Cheryl/Carol/Crystal sometimes.

Late afternoon workout. Kettlebells are difficult when you're not fully in control of joints.

とりあえず忘れないように

One day we'll get working hashtags on @bsky.app but @deck.blue has them working for now

Time for my post-op three month checkup with my surgeon. What I'd like to hear is that he thinks I'm killing it. What I'm concerned about is that he won't let me drop down to 2 days a week for PT. Both my wallet and I are tired of going 3x a week. 🤧

The post-exam burnout is hardcore. I'm so tired, but I am trying to get through SMT: Deep Strange Journey before P5Tactica comes out next month! (Can't remember when lol, just know I reserved it.)

@katrinal10n.bsky.social yaaaaay! Glad to see you on here too!

Getting ready to go sit the Kanji Kentei (漢字検定). Unlike the JLPT, the Kanji Kentei is an excellent measure of your kanji and vocabulary abilities as you must know stroke order, be able to identify readings, and of course, write in kanji when you're simply presented with boxes and a reading.

Okay so... My PT doc thinks this may be good, so yay? I'm just tired of having to go 3x a week. I wonder how much longer it'll be, but hey, at least I'm finally recovering after a third knee surgery in 12 months.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Here we go as a part of my rehabilitation for my knee/leg. Please don't destroy my cartilage. 🤧

its my birthday!! my only wish...is for people to see my art 😳

Bluesky really thought this whole social media thing through with zero hashtag support. No wonder threads is beating their asses in a lot of metrics. 🥴 w/e here for now.

Please be good to me. #Skincare #JMSolution #KoreanSkincare

@nicoliravioli.bsky.social wow. You literally join and don't offer me a code. OIC HOW IT IS. AFTER ALL I TAUGHT YOU ABOUT SKINCARE BEBÉ
