Hi! My name is Tess — real name: Austin Brittany — and this is my blog! I’m in my mid-30s, disabled, and have a intense love for cats. (I have an intense love for a lot of things, but like… it’s cats.) I have chronic pain along with other chronic conditions, and blog about those things openly. Before I was no longer able to work, my actual career path was more in management, advertising, and self-employment, before food, customer service, and more management. I started coding and maintaining websites in 2003 separately and as a hobby, and it has all led me here: the ability to be a jack of all trades with absolutely zero drive to showcase it. Is it because I’m a stoner and TV-phile, or is it because my hyperactive ADHD keeps me from sustaining focus for longs periods of time on one single thing? Maybe we’ll know if I remember to keep looking for the answer.
Other than my love for cats — it’s cats!!! — I’m a giant nerd for all things web programming, comic books/manga of many genres, and cleaning/organizing anything. I love TV shows of crime, comedy, and mystery, but I admit to falling asleep to Law and Order or Criminal Minds. I love reading romance novels, particularly the ones of the LGBTQA community, but I also like historical romance, mythology, non-fiction, and manuels.
