Week 22 August 14th – 20th: The End of an Era Posted on August 14, 2022

Subtopic 1: What’s something you do (or your character does) to relax?

Subtopic 2: Name a comfort food

Over Exposed

The End of an Era happens several times during a lifetime. Transitioning from babyhood to childhood, to adulthood, and finally into old age. From being a student to real life. Restarting a career. Some of it is exciting but others are just frustrating or flat-out scary. The job situation in my area really stinks. It’s not that there aren’t any options, just that they’re all either temp, low paying, part-time w/o benefits, etc. and many are in production of some sort (whether it’s factory or food) or it’s a warehouse or home care. Certain things are going on where I’m at, and while it would be cool if I could vent & such, this is not the venue.

Either playing music (as in my clarinet or saxophone) or cooking is what relaxes me, I swear my energy & capacity levels are such a moving target that I’m not always able to do that… I feel like life, in general, has me either over-exposed, reverse negative, or underutilized in the wrong places…

Rice balls

Rice balls would be my ultimate comfort food, they’re simple, yet has substance. They’re also called snowballs, even if you use brown rice, and still balls if you shape them differently, whether a triangle, square, whatever. So, if you’re making a variety, the different shapes would mean that there is a different filling inside. It’s just it doesn’t make sense to just make a couple, and not up to going through the major production.
