It's only early April and this year has already been..wild. I turned 40, got surprise diagnosed with diabetes, changed my entire diet and exercise habits, got my glucose under control (with the help of medication), feeling like a 1000% better, steadily losing weight and just started an online running program. Running. Program. Me? That one I did not see coming honestly (and if I tell enough people about it I can't just quit 
)
I cancelled my Spotify subscription recently after a godawful amount of years and I'm currently testing Qobuz as it seems like at least a slightly less evil alternative. It also has the option to buy digital albums directly.
That said, it is Bandcamp Friday, the best day to go music shopping, something I intend to do a lot more instead of only streaming.
These two albums are not new to me, I've listened and loved them both and it's about time I added them to my collection.
Corecass: Tar
Chelsea Wolfe: Abyss

Tiiättekö ku odottaa pakettia, ja sit sitä seurantaa päivittää koko ajan kevyen vimmaisesti, koska sehän tietysti nopeuttaa saapumista? Sama saakelin efekti näyttäis olevan myös, kun odottaa labratuloksia ja on olemassa tollanen näpsä hyvinvointialueen äppi. "Joko joko joko" 
Saiskohan tällä perusteella saikkua? "En pysty, pitää kytistää labratuloksia"
I decided some time ago that I'm done with shitty (not even always cheap) fake leather bags that disintegrate in the closet in a year and are then just waste. This beauty arrived today: Globe Hope Hilla in burgundy, designed and made in Finland, material is surplus seat belt. Love it!
Last year was a shitty reading year. Didn't read much and didn't love much of what I read. This year is starting a little better. That said, January often is a good reading month for me, so we'll see.
I read five books in January, two in Finnish, three in English:
The highlight of the month was definitely Equal Rites, my first Pratchett. I've had the book on my shelves for a long time, but like with many other well-loved authors, it felt intimidating. What if - god forbid - I don't love it, when everyone else does? Someone gave me a nudge, and I finally gathered my courage and read it, only to curse my past self for waiting so long. It didn't quite make it to my favourites list but certainly opened a door to a world I want to explore more.
