Hey, Gang! I started my bullet journal and yes I'm excited enough to start here. I'm excited to see how these two formats complement each other? I think this is a better snapshot of my emotional state and the bullet journal will be better for planning and responsibilities.

TWO THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (SPECIFIC)

1. I am grateful for an impulse purchase. I picked up a copy of "Campaign Builder: Cities & Towns" and it's been so helpful. I made my last game a wilderness campaign because I was intimidated by trying to build a city. Now it feels much more manageable? And that extends past my table.

2. I am grateful for N.K. Jemisin's "The Fifth Season". I know I'm way late on this one but now that I've worked my way around to it I am loving it. The story is so different and it's very intense.

ONE THING THAT WENT WELL DURING THE DAY

I played D&D last night with the group I'm about to run Numenera for. Our last session ended with me rolling death saves and I am happy to report that my character of 2 years survived. And might also be turning into a fey creature but that's how being a warlock sometimes do.

ONE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL ACTION ITEM FOR THE DAY

Outside of clearing some time for my sister who is supposed to be driving through my main goal for the day is to organize my bullet journal so I have a better grasp of my job hunt and creative projects like writing my novel and doing campaign prep for my Numenera game.

WHATEVER IS ON MY MIND

I saw some bullshit on Twitter that makes me grit my teeth. I'm constantly astounded some folks have no personality outside what reactionary pundits give them. That said, I really want to keep this blog more positive specifically because I have a bad history of ruminating on things that upset me.

This blog is more for me than anyone else and it's important to me not to wallow in the negativity of everyday life in the crumbling ruins of late-stage capitalism. Even if it'd be honest it would make me miserable. But rest assured, the negativity is there, this just isn't the place I process it.

All best,
Shane Zellow
