How is it August already

I went swimming today even though it was raining (lightly), yay minor accomplishments. I'm currently house-sitting for my parents and there's a great spot for swimming nearby, but due to a combination of bad weather and other plans I only went swimming twice so far. Better than nothing though.
Also, "bad" weather isn't really accurate, I like that it's not as hot and humid as it's been recently.

Recently I went on a bike ride for the first time in a while with my gf and found out that I'm even more out of shape (figuratively) than I thought, not great. I should improve that because biking can be very convenient. Maybe I should buy myself the kind of headphones I can use while wearing a helmet.

The second half of July felt very busy: my weekend classes started again,

battleshipex was going on (the collection is open and currently in the anon period), work is approaching the busiest time of the year, and I had plenty of plans with other people. For example I finally bought a couch, and I finally made it to karaoke again!, yay, it'd been a while. I maaay (definitely) have gotten less than optimal amounts of sleep at times, which does not help my energy levels at all. But at least there were also many fun things.

Past Life, the new Life Series season, is great so far, one of my favorite seasons already only four episodes in. It's not an ideal one to recommend to new people because many of the best parts build on the history between the players, but I have been watching some episodes with my gf while explaining some of the background, and we recently finished watching Grian's Third Life too.
I'm behind on both watching and note-taking but I'm having a great time.

Hello!

Name: Zumi
Pronouns: They/them
Age Group: 40s
Country USA
Subscription/Access Policy: Public posts in general, with some members-locked ones. Everyone is free to add, though!
What I chat about: Usually whatever random thoughts are going on, particularly any fandom thoughts I have. I want to post more often, particularly in talking about a couple creative projects I've got going on. So, pretty much anything I feel like posting...? With heavy irregularity; it's not unusual for me to go weeks without using my journal, so don't be concerned if I vanish off the face of DW for a while.
I'm looking to connect with people who: Want to chat, whether about random things or fandom things (even if non-shared fandoms). Collaborators, other creators, or people who just want to have ordinary conversations! I'm not that interested in taking part in discourse or anti culture, and I don't tend to post many negative things myself, but if you wanna chat about something and get it off your chest, that's also fair game.

Main Fandoms: Disney Ducks (particularly the wider Uncle $crooge comicsverse) is a big one, as is Fraggle Rock. Pokemon and Digimon are also huge ones cohabitating in my brain. Oh! And also Megaman, especially the EXE series. These are all pretty equally big fandoms in my book. And Red Dead Redemption 2 and RDO; looking to play RDR1 someday, but that's a little out of my reach right now.

Other Fandoms: Dimension 20, Skyrim, Dungeon Meshi, Fullmetal Alchemist, Animal Crossing, Dreamlight Valley, Undertale and Deltarune, Final Fantasy series, Kingdom Hearts, In Stars and Time, Stardew Valley, The Sims, Sherlock Holmes, assorted other older anime, Dragonlance, DnD as a whole, assorted Disney franchises, assorted Dreamworks franchises, been really getting into CBS's Ghosts, really I've been in fandom spaces for a long time there's a LOT here, I KNOW I'm forgetting some...
What I Create for Fandom: Fanart, for the most part. The occasional fic, but mostly it's drawing.
Other Hobbies: Reading, photography, hiking, fishing, video games, painting
