Hi Dreamwidth, long time no post.

I kind of miss longer-form writing/musing, and some of my Bluesky friends seem like they're trying to reinvigorate their use of this site, so maybe I'll give it a try too?

For all that haven't known what's up with me in the last... decade?... uh well I still own a great bookstore, I still have 2 awesome kids, and I still have 2 wives but not for much longer. One of my partners and I are breaking up with the other due to Many Reasons which I won't get into here, but it's been a long time coming. So I'll be getting divorced then probably getting married? IDK. It sucks. I don't recommend this process but I think it's what needs to happen.

My kids are 10 and 7 and both are neurodivergent with some pretty big support needs. They're brilliant and funny and wild and they take up soooooooo much time and energy. I love them and wouldn't have my life any other way, except I do feel bad for how many of my friendships I've let slide over the course of parenting and my business taking up all my life and time.

Last year I went and saw MCR in August with 3 of my best friends, and uh. I'm so back in this fandom. It's been a bright light during a hard year. We're seeing them again this August, here's hoping this leg of Gerard Way's Fetish Opera is just as thrilling as the previous two legs have been.

I'm now on tumblr for pretty much exclusively MCR reasons ([tumblr.com profile] phasingintooscillation) and on Bluesky ([bsky.social profile] were-duck.bsky.social [BlueskySocial]) for maintaining broader human connections who occasionally put up with me yelling about Frank Iero.

Sometimes I read books, too? Not so many lately but I'd like to write about reading more, so maybe this is a good place for that?

Anyhow, hi. How're you all. I miss you <3
