Post time, which, ugh. The past few days have been so exhausting.

First though Saturday

A storm hit the uk and, to my surprise, the strong winds and rain hit here even though we’re far inland. So we spent the day inside which was fine with me. I saw an adaption of Then There Were None (called that in the tv guides, but the titles called it 10 Little Indians) and it was… ok. It did a strange choice of moving it from being on an island to the middle of a desert, which raised the question of who builds a hotel that far out from anyone.

The rest of the day wasn’t too exciting, I watched a few things and then had MCC on though my focus of it was off. I did intend to watch Everything Everywhere All At Once but found I didn’t have the focus (nor did I Tuesday night when it was repeated) so I’ll have to watch it on the player. (I tried watching the streamer awards instead but zoned out after the red carpet part and my stomach went woozy too ugh)

Sunday morning I finally decided to get back into Night Vale (these eps were from February last year) and damn, I really hate the university of what it is. Hopefully they get tossed out of town at some point.

The rest of the day was meant to be restful but alas no. I came down and mum made a mess of things downstairs, including my stuff and I just… it made me so frustrated and annoyed. We’d agreed, this last week, not to do anything because of going out and she just… broke her word like she always does. I was already so worked up about it, when she messed with a lead… and pulled a nice owl wax melt heater I had down, breaking it. That made me so angry and I just went upstairs and stayed there.

Even now I’m so angry and it feels like she doesn’t understand, calling my response ‘silly’. Oh it’s silly to have thrown around and disorganised? It’s silly to have my stuff broken? It’s silly to have a panic attack? I honestly don’t know what she thought my reaction was going to be because it wasn’t gonna be positive.

Sigh.

As a result I spent Sunday and Monday mostly alone. I didn’t wanna be around her. Even now I’m still not happy and it still feels she doesn’t get why.

But I digress, if I think on it more I’ll just get more frustrated.

The rest of Sunday and most of Monday I spent upstairs and it all feels kinda hazy. Monday night at least had Sillymas which was fun. It was a Christmas event with streamers, mostly singing Christmas songs and… it was entertaining. Only a few were good singers but at least it was fun.

I didn’t want to but was essentially emotionally blackmailed into going to the library Tuesday morning (‘oh you’re not disappointing me you’re disappointing Joy’) so I just spent the time away from mum. Ijust read some of SFX and then the Scarlet Witch graphic novel I had.

It was The Witches Road graphic novel, clearly put out cause of Agatha All Along. I’d never read Scarlet Witch before and, for the most part, I enjoyed it. I loved her introduction, her interactions with ghost Agatha and I did like most of the story. The road only appears in the last part and feels a little wasted though (of course that could be cause All Along’s portrayal was so iconic) and the villain was… eh. I really didn’t like him as a bad guy. But overall? I really liked it and would be curious to read more. (Not that I know where to start!)

I picked up the Radio Times Christmas issue on the way home and, while I’ve not gone through marking things down properly yet, it feels like there’s some pretty good days. Christmas Eve feels best, with the doctor who proms, Ghostbusters Afterlife, Bake Off, Madame Blanc and A Ghost Story For Christmas, but most days seem to have something on. (Plus there’s a lot of the Death In Paradise shows on.) Of course there’s new Famous Five on when the biopsy is, so I’ll have to iplayer it.

Also though, I noticed The Rig is back for season 2! I knew they were doing one but hadn’t heard there was a release date yet, but it’s back on the 3rd of January. Again it’s weird there’s been no promo yet but I’m excite!

There’s also the return of Tubbo’s No Dice which started Friday, for three days. It’s a bit odd that it’s not spread out more, but I’m still read to lock in and watch. I’m sure Owen’s done a good job making a new campaign for everyone (and im curious to see Krow’s new character, apparently he is ‘hot’).

Today things seems Ed to have settled between me and mum, though I’m still frustrated by the whole thing. My worry is that cause she promised not to do anything last week and did anyway, that any promises not to do things when I’m healing from my surgery (or other treatment I may need) will also be lies. But eh.

There was new Skeleton Crew today! Which was really good! They did a reveal in this episode (about Joe, Jude Law’s character) that I felt wouldn’t be confirmed this early. Plus there’s a cute wise owl alien! Ihope we see more of her. And there was a battle droid!

Also good news! The local cinema is showing Sonic 3 at an early afternoon showing! So I won’t have to worry about getting back! But on the flip side? It feels odd it’s only getting one showing a day. Mufasa is getting three and I… really don’t see why? Like everyone is hyped for sonic and no one seems interested in Mufasa so why aren’t they at least even?

Now I’m gonna bundle up and flop (and maybe write, which stalled causa stress). But ugh I feel this time of year is gonna be more stressful these coming weeks.
