but anyway, i was just going through some old posts on this blog and... man. it's always kind of weird to see how different you were as a person in the past, but when i look at posts from 2012 and 2011 it's kind of hard to believe that that was me just a few years ago? i occupy a completely different mental space than 2011!me did. can you believe that there was a time in my life that constantly thinking about a fictional work was so alien to me that i constantly talked about it? that's just, like, what i do now. this is completely barring the fact that i wasn't writing back then. and if 2012!me could see my current au her head would be spinning (no hp??? who the fuck is cuhel???). like really.
on the other hand, it seems like i was a lot more emotional back then, but really i just talked about it more because it was right i'd opened up. i'm totally just as emotional now, but it's for different stuff ( i got a stomach ache when they announced that sam wilson was becoming captain america because i was so excited). also i was totally obsessed with inception. like man apparently that movie was on my mind for like a month straight. nowadays i tend to relate the things i see to some part of my au and spend more time thinking about that... of course, again, in 2011 there wasn't really an au anyway, so
but man, this is surreal i'm gonna go back to doing that and editing, because i'd really like to finish this chapter, like, today.
edit - i'm back again because i made an amazing discovery while reading these: this is back when i still identified as straight. holy frick frack... it feels so long ago, especially because i'm not allosexual or alloromantic at all anymore (i'm very nearly not cis either), but i look at a post from three years ago where i talked about having babies... jesus who the hell is that. 2011 was also my brief stint as a christian before i a) went (agnostic) atheist to deal with my thanatophobia and b) waaaaay before i slwoly shifted back into theism. damn i've changed a lot.
