In yet another way that Belghast is so much better at this than I will ever be, I am very very late indeed getting out the wrap-up post for Blaugust 2025. But! We’re doing it now and that’s what matters, right? RIGHT? Here’s our stats breakdown for 2025. Before I get onto passing out awards,… Continue reading Blaugust 2025 In Review| Nerd Girl Thoughts
I actually managed to keep mostly on track for the goals I thought I would, and am thoroughly unsurprised at the ones I missed. I did re-up my World of Warcraft subscription for a month and never got past the character selection screen, so while that was a miss, it confirmed for me that I… Continue reading In Review – August 2025| Nerd Girl Thoughts
I have zero business trying to set goals today. It’s the last day of Blaugust, and with this post I’ll barely have eked out my goal of the Community Builder award – this is post #15. More than half of those posts happened in the past week. I’m double posting today. And I’m tired, y’all.… Continue reading Nerd Girl Goals – September 2025| Nerd Girl Thoughts
I knew I wanted to say something about this post (Stop Valorizing Introversion) made by Rabbit way back on the 21st, but I found myself really struggling with what I wanted to say. It’s not often I feel absolutely attacked by something that is completely not about me, but this post came out swinging for… Continue reading Some Thoughts on The Introvert / Extrovert Spectrum – A Blaugust Response Post| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Coincidences are weird. I’ve been working on my 50 Before 50 list, otherwise known as my midlife-crisis spreadsheet (and yes, I know I’m late, why is anyone surprised about this?). One of the items I very recently added to it was this: Then yesterday, I read this post on Forking Mad (To Journal, or Not… Continue reading Even More Room to Write – A Blaugust Response Post| Nerd Girl Thoughts
I don’t know that I would necessarily say it’s a universal experience, but it’s probably more common than we think. I know I feel like I’m an oddball because I struggle so m…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
One of the possible tasks for the #Blaugust2025 Community Builder award is to create or join in a group project. I invited my fellow Blaugust participants to write about something they don’t normally share on their blog that they think their readers would never guess! If you’re following a bunch of bloggers, you may see multiple… Continue reading #Blaugust2025 Group Project -You’d Never Guess, But…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
It might be cheating just a little to call this a response post since it’s technically a post for this week’s theme, which I suppose I could have just written about on my own. However, I had zero intention of even touching the themes this year (I feel like I have done them to death,… Continue reading Grace For Everyone But Me – A Blaugust Response Post| Nerd Girl Thoughts

I was supposed to play a game last night. I didn’t have anything specific in mind, but I feel like if I’m not playing anything interesting, I’m not sure what to write about. So I …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
By the start of August, I am absolutely desperate for autumn to show up. I’m one of those people who have a very small window of comfortable temperatures, and although I cope okay when it get…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
After a couple very difficult months, July felt like the first time in a long time I did oh so many things that were both completely non-productive and entirely good for me. I spent a long weekend …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Two months with no real goals has not been good for me in any way, and I figure it’s not going to serve me any better with Blaugust starting tomorrow. I need to rediscover my focus, and figur…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Yet again, Blaugust is the brain child of Belghast of Tales of the Aggronaut, but this year, it’s a group effort! Check out my Blaugust 2025 intro post for more information or to sign up! As …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
