Snowflake Challenge: Happy Place
I've been seeing this annual fandom celebration festival around for years, but I've never participated before. Given the current resurgence of Dreamwidth, and my desire to get more connected to fandom in this space, this year seems like the ideal time to give it a try.
Day 1: Talk about your Happy Place—the things that give you joy, calms you or keeps you sane.
I have a number of Happy Places. The corner of my couch downstairs, curled up with a book, a show, or a game, ideally with my spouse in the other corner and our cat snuggling between us. A couple of local cafes, with a cup of coffee in hand, a laptop in front of me, and a view out the window to watch the world go by. At a friend's house, or out to dinner with one person or the whole gang, sharing our lives and talking about the world. The private Slack where I spend most of my online time, where we've built a really fun and supportive community, where we can discuss almost anything. Out on the streets of San Francisco, soaking in the views and the atmosphere. Bryn Mawr College, my undergrad alma mater, which still feels like home every time I go back for reunion or some other gathering. No one of these places would suffice by itself, but all of them together make up a life that I'm quite pleased to call my own. It's a good life, really. Not a perfect life, but the one I've built, and it works for me.
