So I tried to dye my hair turquoise! It was a resounding disaster in that it did not come out that way!
First of all I had to bleach it, because my hair is a very dark brown naturally. It was the best bleach job I'd ever done on my hair. Though it did feel horribly luminous and noticeable. Then I put the turquoise dye on a couple of days later and it did not take properly/there are entire swathes of hair I missed. Also, after it had set and been washed out it came out more green??? I mean, I know I'd been eyeing the emerald green dye, but it's not what I wanted. THAT SAID. It is kind of growing on me, and people seem to like it, and I do like the green that it is. Which is good, because it felt like a fucking disaster when I'd done it (though that was partially down the gross mood I was in at the time, no doubt).
I am going to get another box of the dye and redo it at some point in the near future (because it didn't take so well, it also looks quite faded, and has faded again after a wash this morning). Because I want to see what the actual turquoise looks like, damnit.

I have a start to another short(?) story that I think is set in the same world as the one I wrote a while back, in March. Which is good. I mentioned to an offline friend not long after I'd written the first one that I'd like to set more stories in that world. Maybe eventually I will have enough of these suckers for a collection!
(I keep meaning to edit the previous one and post it but right now editing is the last thing my brain wants to do).

I got nothing else, hope all of y'all are good :)
