Positivity Prime Time! Share Five Things You Love About Yourself, Four Things You're Excited For, OR
đź’•Positivity prime time! Share five things you love about yourself, four things you're excited for, OR three people you care deeply about and why. Pass this along to someone else who makes you smileđź’•
I love this - and you know what, I'm going to be a rebel and do ALL THREE!
Five things I love about myself (and this will be hard for me to do):
My smile
My boobs
My passion and excitement for the things I love
The fact I never give up, even when I'm dead when I've hit rock bottom - I may fester there for a while but always pull myself back up again
My cooking. Li says it's black magic how I can just open a couple of kitchen cupboards and make a meal
Four things you're excited for
Finishing unpacking and getting to spend the rest of my life with Li
More tennis, more opportunities to watch Carlos and/or Jannik play and hopefully going to try and attend some matches IRL next year
My next university module starting in 3 weeks - I'm doing a Classical Studies BA part-time distance learning (Open University) and this year is a history module called Early modern Europe: society and culture, 1500–1780
All the stories I haven't read yet, and all the ones I'm going to write
Three people you care deeply about and why
Li - my fiancee. We're coming up on the 4th anniversary of our first online interaction which is cool. So in 2020 she was posting some fucking fantastic SG-1 OT3 fic for Kinktober, I started commenting and we ended up having conversations in comments, then I messaged her on Tumblr in the December and we haven't stopped talking yet. She's absolutely My Person, accepts me for who I am and isn't fazed by my disabilities, she's calm and nerdy and gorgeous and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her.
Natalie - one of my best friends. We met through Supernatural fandom in like 2006, 2007, met in person at a Leverage convention in Portland in 2010 and have been pretty inseparable ever since. Well as inseparable as two people can be with an ocean and an entire continent between them. But we went on holiday together every year until 2019, and we still talk pretty much daily. She's a huge nerd and we share so many sci-fi fandoms, she's one of the most caring & generous people I know, and she's like my fucking Buffy.
Dragon - another one of my best friends. We met at a gig in 2008, ran into each other at a con a couple of weeks later and only stopped going to gigs and cons because of that wee pandemic. She's crafty and nerdy and caring and fun and one of those people who will share the things she loves with you, or things she finds that makes her think of you
I shall now proceed to send this to everyone and can't wait to hear about the positive things in your lives too!

I do not have time for my disabilities to be all disabling. I have shit to do this weekend, boxes to finish unpacking (currently at 'had a panic attack in the kitchen because Everything Is Wrong). So I need to Fix Them. Only, of course, I've done way too much the least couple of weeks, all my joints are swollen and that's triggering nerve pain. *sigh*
Nope, my body has decided it does not give any fucks at all how busy I am this weekend, how much there is to do. My lower backs, hips and knees are all rebelling, and just sitting up hurts.
So, as is the norm, we're adjusting our plans and my job is going to be dose up on painkillers, sit on the couch with the tennis on and take shit out of boxes. Li will do all the lifting, carrying and sorting. I feel so frustrated but at least there's something I can do.
Here’s another video people have asked me about, from this post, the one where Roger asked for the cameraman to stop filming him and film shirtless!Rafa instead. It’s from an exhibition match the two played in 2006 in Seoul. (Roger won, 6-3 3-6 6-3)
