I think my NaMo model is Done Enough. There are some parts that could use another layer, but... there's also the possibility that extra layers would fuck it up, so I think I'll leave it as-is right now.

A couple bits still drying, so I'll look at it tomorrow and make sure there's nothing obvious that needs fixing, and then I'll share some progress pictures.

Today was as rough at work as I thought it would be, lol. It was better than yesterday, but there was a lot of stuff I wasn't completely able to get done. I feel bad, because I think it looks like I didn't do much all weekend, when I actually had two super stressful days that were overwhelmingly busy.

Tomorrow I have to go to the DMV to renew my license and I'm already dreading it, lol.

I'm beyond ready to try and get back to my WIP, before I totally lose momentum, but the last several days have given me no opportunity! Maybe tomorrow. (Got a week to finish draft 2 of Chapter 3 to stay on track.)

Finished reading Upright Women Wanted. I enjoyed it. May write more about it, but not sure.

When I had to renew my license back in 2020, pandemic hit, so I didn't get to go into the DMV itself. I had to renew it online and got stuck having to use my same old picture where I'm probably 40 or more pounds heavier, and I was trying to have long hair that looked like shit. I wanted a new photo with the buzzed hair and weight loss. At this point, I'm going to get a new photo but probably not till we move to NC when I'd have to get a license for the state anyway, and I will definitely get a new photo. I mean, they never look good or anything, but I'd still like my not good to look better than my past not good.

The appointment only took 45 minutes which wasn't too bad. I wanted to renew online, but didn't have an eye exam recent enough. My new picture is HORRIBLE, lmao. My last one wasn't great, but this one is the worst I've ever had! (Alex said "...you look like you want to hurt someone.")

Since you'll have to get a new license in NC it makes sense to wait and do it then. Minimize the DMV trips, haha.
