So I managed to do something for most of these though it was tight for some. Two of these only got things done today: the reading (And with that I finally finished Nightmare Yearnings, thankfully these ones were pretty good if a bit short) and the Disney+ (I figured watching a simpsons ep would be a good short cover but honestly that ep was horrific and made me glad I don’t eat meat ugh).

The two unmarked ones are annoying because I was close to doing them but didn’t.

With fic writing I’ve been doing a fic which should have been ease to do (it’s just a short fic for someone) and yet the bursts of fic writing have been sporadic and separated by either distraction or just feeling drained or bleh.

With the gaming I did finish the current Fall Guys Season but I don’t think that counts. I am pretty close with finishing The Quarry (with just one big and one small chapter to do) but I’ve felt so drained these past days I’ve not been able to. I. Sure I’ll finish it in the next few days though.

Now though I’ll likely end up bundling up or maybe watching the paleontologizing stream again. Or both.

Proper post tomorrow maybe.

(no subject)

Yesterday ended up being the stint at the library in the morning which ended up being kinda productive on two fronts. First, I was able to talk down mum about Adam. She managed to listen to reason (that access tothe presale wasn’t a guarantee, that the prices would be too much and, most importantly, Ididnt want to be in London at night alone).

Second I was able to read, finishing Nightmare Yearnings and reading some of the Who magazine (which made me curious about Blake’s 7 again, anyone seen it?). Nightmare was an anthology so it was the last four stories which were pretty good. Albeit some were like others in that it felt like they could have been longer.

The Fortnite season is ending next week which I thought was ending later in the month. So now I’m gonna be speeding finishing the bonus battle pass. Thankfully there’s a bunch of last minute quests to do so I’m gonna try and do them.

I did the little Lego birds nest that I got from Birmingham and it’s so cute! There’s a cute bird and some little hatchlings. It reminded me I meant to look for Lego explorers Sunday and forgot so I might have to go try and grab it next week.

Last night Squidcraft started which was an odd time at 6 (so I had to miss an hour of it for Voyager) and I watched foolish’s stream when I was watching, thankfully everyone I knew survived the first day so let’s see if they last till the end

I did watch a Simpsons ep last night, I watched Thanksgiving of Terror, in part cause the title gives treehouse of horror vibes in part cause I like the anthology eps. Unfortunately this one was a bit… eh. Mostly cause the first one was so horrific (and makes me glad I don’t eat meat cause those poor turkeys. The other segments were better but I think that first one was just so…

It probably didn’t help that I had a general Bad Feeling again which was just…. Ugh.is it because of the constant bombardment of bad news in the world or just anxiety being bad again? Or maybe it’s just tiredness or the result of the headache and stuff.

This morning not long after I came down (the Zelda tees I ordered from qwertee had came earlier than I expected too) there was a call and… ugh. Now they wanna do calls every 3 months about ESA and ugh. I hate calls (I hate going in more) and I just don’t see why they’re so necessary because they left me alone for so long. It’s just a new annoyance and I know it’s gonna be a source of anxiety. It seemed like she might be nice but… I dunno. I don’t trust the people there honestly.

After walking the pup there was The Mandalorian first ep of season 3 (thoughts under the cut)

Tonight I’m hoping to get back to The Quarry, though again it depends on how I feel or if I get drained.
