shadowhiveLike I mentioned on my last post thesis one is gonna be a bit more positive (though there’s still annoyances that’ll be later).
Yesterday I managed to start reading some of the free comic book day stuff. I read the first 3 which were the ones I picked.
*The Umbrella Academy one is a prelude and, as such it’s a tad… incomprehensible and I’m sure it’ll make more sense in the context of the new series. There was also a Witcher short which was more self contained and worked better
*The Star Trek one also a prelude and it made me curious about what was going to happen next (especially because of the surprise appearance of Alexander). Like TUA one it also had a second comic, a preview of a Lower Decks one (I didn’t realise it had a comic) which managed to catch the humour of the show so we’ll and I wanna see more)
*Lastly was the Animal Crossing one which was much more silly than the others but still funny (I wonder if it’s a prelude too) and, like the others there was also another one in the form of a Kirby short (surprisingly beauty and the beast inspired). This one was also in a manga layout.
I also watched the next two Star Wars visions shorts. The first one was pretty but also depressing. The second one is probably gonna be one of the favs of this bunch because it’s so so fun and funny (no surprise as it’s by Aardman, the people that do Wallace And Gromit and Shaun the sheep).
It’s also Eurovision time so I’ve switched to the Eurovision playlist and there were two Eurovision shows on the tv last night which were both quite fun. I usually don’t know too much of the acts/songs before the semi finals so was surprised Sweden is sending Loreen (or Euphoria) to the contest this year, so I hope she does well (also their selection process is such a big deal there I wish ours was too). The first semi final is tonight so I’m excited for that.
I’ve done some dreamlight valley again and, again, I pm trying to speed run the star path quests which can be so annoying. I also finished the last of the second lot of Star Wars quests on Fortnite, the third are in a few days. I also need to try and get some wins on fall guys before the season changes at last.
I did start the next Who ep The Time Monster last night, but due to various things I didn’t see beyond the first part, maybe I’ll watch the rest later.
There should be a bunch of things coming this week.
*The replacement Doctor Who magazine which should come via regular post
*The Disney package coming via Evri… which they still don’t seem to know what’s happening with it which is worrying (it’s not like they can lose it it’s not exactly a small thing)
*The Las Nevadas merch which should come via post tomorrow (I’m still miffed about the customs which is horrendous)
*The Lovejoy ep (though I’m not sure how it’ll come)
*Zelda which should be here Friday (and yeah I’m still annoyed I missed the collectors one)
The big annoyance was mum yesterday. She lost her glasses and has been struggling with the ones we’ve had so we finally got her prescription a few days ago with the intent to order some glasses. Cept she’s been really annoying about them. Yesterday she wanted me to do them, shoving her kindle at me to do it (before I’d got the wallet or the prescription and then as I was sorting it out she went to do other things which is fine, but I needed to query things with her and she didn’t seem interested. After putting everything on hold and her being non committal about even getting them at all I left them and did my reading.
Then right before she was going to bed she was all ‘do me the glasses’. This was at about 10:30 as I was part way through the time monster and I was like ‘no I’m not doing these things when you go to bed if you want them you stay’ because I didn’t want to get her the wrong ones or anything. Cue her being annoying about it and acting like it was an unreasonable thing before conceding I was right, staying and doing it. But ugh it’s so annoying that she decides this stuff needs to be done at night instead of in the daytime when I had everything ready.
Ugh
Today I’ve been waiting for the Disney package in case it shows up beat it seems like it wont today and I’m so annoyed with it all.
