My - Paige's - biological father keeps reaching out to me. Her. WHatever. He's trying, I guess, to make amends for my mother's horrible words and actions on the 20th. He's apologized, he says he misses he, he makes a very big point to say he wishes "we" were well, but just can't forget the look t his face when mother went off on her tirade about me. Like I can help whos I was born. Hell, she's the one that gave birth to me. I told him that we were fine and being safely isolated. Yes, of course, I would be crushed if he - or mother died. But I just... I know I should forgive him, I just... I'm not ready yet. And I wonder if that makes me a bad daughter.

The beaches are empty. No souls for miles, barely even anyone walking their dogs. I understand why, of course I do, and I know the restrictions are for the greater good. But I will welcome the day when the families come back, embracing the waves and spending time together.

mom... sister... i've been pretty shit at keeping in touch. i'm sorry for that. i miss you both. and i hope you're both doing well.

we've been back from brazil for a couple of weeks now and i still haven't posted pictures. they're coming soon, promise. but life has been crazy. that's ok, though. it's a good crazy. i was hoping to come home to more winter like weather, but i guess that was asking for too much.

so, while on vacation, my mertail returned while i was swimming and it took for.ev.er. for me to make it turn back into legs. anyone have any suggestions on how to control the returning of things? thankfully the beach wasn't crowded, but, you know..... it could have been.

as an update from the last time i pulled this thing up: my main computer is back up and running beautifully and i could not be more happy. nothing like waking up to a bitcoin wallet just a little more full.

on the flip side, i've had a migraine for three days straight now and have been having the oddest dreams. darkness and a dog that reminded me of fluffy from harry potter. flowers made of gemstones. it's crazy. crazier that they feel so real, too. but, that's just silly. fluffy is a book character. and the last time i saw a gemstone flower, i was in a swarvoski store looking for something for my mom. dreams are weird.

Hello! I fell and hit my head tonight and when I came to, I remembered I was Rhode! And Paige! I have no idea how this works! But it's very exciting and I hope everyone is wonderful tonight because I am.

Today I booted my main computer up to get to work and it made this horrible grinding noise and then it just shut off and wouldn't come back on. So, that was how I started my day. I hope your's is much better.

This vacation can't come fast enough. A week with my mortal parents, daughter, and lady is very much what the doctor ordered. At least now I know that car surfing wasn't the dumbest thing I've ever done.

Hopefully some sun, sand, and crystal blue water will take the edge off.

I was looking at the weather today and I thought, FINALLY. It will feel like winter! Not that I'm complaining, I am a sunny weather kind of girl, but then I saw a few days into next week that it might be something like 60 degrees. Sigh. I am all for sun and sand and more sun and more sand, but I do wish the seasons felt like the seasons. How am I supposed to eat ice cream by the fire if it is not cold enough for a fire?! Yes, ice cream by the fire. It is my favorite. Also s'mores. I mean, you can make s'mores without a fire, but... But why? I debated turning on the AC just to make it cold enough, but I got shot down by my parents. It seemed like a perfectly good idea to me!

With everyone speaking of Thanksgiving and making plans for the national holiday, I would like to cast out my first invite to my friends for my Makahiki celebration. It is a Hawaiian Thanksgiving, or harvest festival, and I wanted to share that with everyone.
It is normally held on New Year's Eve, but I was thinking it could be early December instead. Historically it is a four-month festival, but we shortened it to a day to reflect the similar holidays of the US.
