Master of My Life (Patreon)

My dear cage cleaners, water topper-uppers and kib dispensers, for the past two months I've been applying for my masters. I'm sorry for not posting, I've just been in hyperfocus mode slash partial denial. I don't like to admit to anyone or myself that I'm doing a big thing because then I might lose courage. Anyways, I'm done and now you are gonna hear from me A LOT! I have a video due March 1st so I will need your advice. I'm finally doing fiberglass gal, full itchy throttle, let's do it! Some of you may know I've been trying to get a brain explosion to make this video for years. Fortunately, I've had mystery hives on my body for 4 months, so I've gotten into the itchy headspace. Also at one point, the doctors thought it was scabies so I'm deep into the plague and rat lore.
Anyway, here are some things I'm dreaming about for the new year.
HEELS: I pay so little attention to what the lower half of my body looks like in videos that I rarely make interesting or important shoe choices for my costumes. This year I'm going to be a heels-wearing girlie. Lately, I've been going to many thrift stores and ogling the heels. I also realized that wearing heels is an amazing way to be slutty while also sneaky modest, which you know I'm all about.
SPACE: I'm very obsessed with the path of totality which will occur at the next solar eclipse on April 8th, particularly the people who chase the path and write about the experience. As Annie Dillard says in her essay, Total Eclipse: “Seeing a partial eclipse bears the same relation to seeing a total eclipse as kissing a man does to marrying him, or as flying in an airplane does to falling out of one.”
I'm burnt out from applications but weirdly energized and excited to work with my hands and make a new set and costume!
