Bravery

A 5-post collection

Saturday, Parkrun and Testing Cycle

I think I have finally made all the stopgap functions for Pseuducku and, if it all works, I will have a HTML version to put up on the development log. Finally, an interactive experience... but not much of one.

Gotta acknowledge my limits, you know.

I have added gel pads to my super foot-friendly shoes, and I think it's made a difference. So too has swapping the side I use my cane on until my other heel stopped whinging about things.

I think the poor thing was jealous.

My right heel still twinges when I bend to pick things up so I'll keep up the treatments and hope for the best.

My physio is spacing out her treatments, so this is a long experiment on my end.

I may or may not get brave enough to test it today. I got some things back from a marketing person and I also need to brave up to evaluate them.

I have to be very brave in my near future. And I'm a big chicken. The bravest thing I'm doing is VTTRPG in the early AM tomorrow. Then I worry about everything else.

Let's get on with my offerings.

Tuesday, Getting Brave and Preparation

Today, as well as working on bread, I am going to work on a writeblr intro for Tumblr and then drop a few nice messages into Niel Gaiman and Diane Duane's Tumblr inboxes.

I actually have to focus on my autism and my queer cred since that's how I use my niche. I carve it out, I own it, and then I fill it with flashing neon lights so that other peeps can find me.

I also should get in contact with

Challenge #03891-J239: Your Threats Are Empty

I'm a coward, and I am well aware of this fact. Many things terrify me. But, you have made a grave error. One thing I am not afraid of is death. -- Anon Guest

"Unlock it or die," said the brigand, knife at Mort's throat.

"Kill me. You won't be able to unlock it even when I'm dead," said Mort. The Hellkin courier seemed cooler than ice under the threat of death. "The only way to open it is when it arrives

Challenge #01720-D259: High Alert Level

I may be a coward, but I will not let that define me. -- RecklessPrudence

My name is Val, and I'm afraid. Every day, every minute, all I can think of is the worst possible consequences that result from my actions. You might call it anxiety. I don't think it's anything as mild as that. I have a mechanical clock as an alarm, because what if the power fails in the night and all the electronic stuff doesn't work? I sterilise my
