Good things about today:
- On a whim, I bought an ounce of milk fiber for spinning, because I am fascinated by weird man-made fiber and wanted to try it. (Milk fiber is, as far as I understand, made by processing some kind of milk protein byproduct into fiber.) It's pretty cool - it's very silky and the fibers feel a little weird when they move against each other and the undyed yarn has a very cool golden undertone that I really like. I'm tentatively planning to dye it when I'm done spinning, because I also love dye experiments. Possibly, it will be dip-dyed.
- I have been between stories of late (which has not been helping with the depression), so I have decided to try to kickstart a new one by playing world-building rpgs by myself. Right now, I am slowly playing a solo game of Microscope, using the GM's Apprentice to emulate other players. While this is probably a very different experience to playing with other real people, I'm having a lot of fun.
- Today it is very hot but I have been lucky enough to spend the day entirely in air conditioned environments.
