I wanted to tell you that I'm still breathing

[mortalcity]

Hello, everyone. I exist again. 2016 was hell for several different reasons, I couldn't write, and at a certain point talking about my life just made me sad so I drifted away from Dreamwidth. But it's a new year, I have insurance again and presumably medication soon, and I am trying to be a semi-functional adult again.

Quick intro for everyone I just added from the friending meme:

My name is Aubrey, or Birdie, whichever you prefer. I'm 28, lesbian, poly, mentally ill and physically disabled. I live in Florida (not my first or tenth or probably twentieth choice of places to live, but here I am) with my partner, actuallyclintbarton, and our other partner storyinmypocket will be moving in with us later this month!

Animals we live with include: Ace, a shepherd/pitbull mix, who is made of wrinkles and cuddles; Princess Olivia Natalia, a strange deerlike changeling child of no particular breed; the twins, Quentin and Toby, one of which is the light of my life and my daemon and has never done anything wrong ever in her life, and the other is her brother and an adorable little shit; and Ariel, who is vast and orange and not very bright. I love them all very much, even when they're terrible.

I like comics and fantasy and folklore and ancient history and tabletop rp, and I write novels and original fic. I'm going to try to talk more about all of those things, as well as lifestuff and more animal pictures, when I am actually medicated. Very soon.

Everyone who is new here, welcome to whatever this is! Everyone who's been here for a while, welcome baaack? Hi. I missed you.

HI IT IS REALLY GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU

Your animal children are beautiful. I did not realize you had a tortie! Which is to say a sass elemental.

...I didn't know that when I got mine.

I oopsed. But, onward and upward and DAMNIT MARGOT THOSE ARE MY SOCKS.

HI I AM GLAD TO TALK TO YOU AGAIN TOO

And yes, I have a tortie. I knew exactly what I was looking for when I got Toby, and I think all my cats in the future may have to be torties, because they are the best cats.
