Ugh, the past few days have just been so exhausting. I just wanna bundle up forever.
First off things seem to have evened out a bit with mum, though I’m still on edge with her. The things she messed with are still all over the place and I’ve no idea where half the things even are, but I’ve not had the edge to actually sort through anything. Bleh.
Thursday night I ended up trying the new Indiana Jones game, which just came to gamepass on Monday (when it was released) mostly I did the prologue and opening chapter and it was pretty fun. The prologue was the opening of the first film (complete with boulder chase) then you had to investigate the collage and then explore a place in Italy. It’s that last section where you had enemies, in this case fascists and I very much approve that the game lets you hit them with all kinds of things. My go to was a a trusty broom (whenever I saw one I’d pick it up) and it was fun to sneak up and whack them. Or just bash them in general.
After finishing a section I stopped cause it was Game Awards and, honestly, it was pretty much the same as usual. It was about 4 hours long and, as Stanley and Waldorf said (yep they had the heckling muppets there!) ‘It’s like game commercials with award interruptions!’ At least the people that got to go on stage didn’t get rushed this time, but there was still times when they speed ran awards and didn’t even hand them over which feels disrespectful.
I had intended to send the package to![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
fleshdolls Friday but between a storm warning and tiredness I didn’t. However I was able to send it Saturday, yay! So here’s hoping it gets there safely.
With it sent I was able to put up the Life Day advent calendar I picked up when I saw Smile 2 and it’s so pretty. I have to open a few doors a day to catch up but I like the R2 with a scarf.
The past three days have mostly been taken up with the 6 hour stints of No Dice, the dnd campaign that started during the Tubbathon. In the Tubbathon it was spread out, being one a week but for act 2 they decided to do it over a weekend which feels so chaotic. And it was, especially in the last fight where virtually everyone got turned into some form of animal. I do think having it all condensed like that didn’t give it as much room to breath/let things process though. There were giveaways for a postcard signed by the cast and I won one of them! Yay! So I’m looking forward to that arriving.
And speaking of dnd why’s my laptop always need an update when I open it for Dungeons And Dodongos? It’s cursed I tell you!
I did watch Sonic yesterday and hope to watch Sonic 2 tonight in prep for Sonic 3 Saturday.
But ugh there’s some new additional stress, because mum insisted on getting some stupid pendant thing on eBay (which I was against because of the timing) it looks like most of her pension is already gone so things are gonna be a struggle, though I can’t even check to confirm as her messing about shifted the card reader so her account can’t before. Which is so frustrating and so… ugh. I hate this time of year. (It feels time to dust off the ko-fi link just in case things fuck uo in these last weeks).
I was gonna order a James Marriott sweater but I held off cause of sending the package and having a bad feeling and now that is out of stick too which ugh. Hopefully it comes back but I’m not hopefully.
