One foot in the door

March 10th, 2026

Being a gemini is really hard

I feel like I've got one foot in every door there is and I'm getting really tired of standing this way. The world feels so unpredictable all the time and I never know what combination of passion and security I can really throw my all in toward. But even if that weren't the case I'd probably keep standing this way anyway, it's a symptom of my hoarding problem...

There's not yet much to see here

I'm excited to start writing more, though. I have lots of thoughts saved up to share.

I've written a lot of my thoughts in the same one notes page in the iOS Notes app ever since I've had an iPhone. Recently though, I bought a small notebook to write things down with a pen. I like taking out the item that represents what I'm doing when I do it. It's really tactile and enjoyable for reasons I don't know how to explain. Taking out a book to read, a notebook to write, a compact mirror to fix my makeup, whatever else. I'm trying to find more of these, I'll keep a list here. Let me know if you have any ideas.

  • Pocket notebook
  • Kindle
  • Compact mirror
