The Friday before Christmas

It’s the Friday before christmas and I dunno if anyone else feels like this, but it doesn’t feel like christmas at all. Like, it feels like there should be at least another or something before it not that it’s in a few days.
I know for me it might be due to the anxiety and uni stress. But I dunno, is it a general feeling?
The past few days my head ahas been a bit achy which has made my eyes feel funny in the nights which has been so irritating. I’ve wanted to work on stuff and game but my head’s not had the best focus which has been annoying. Bleh.
On the plus side it’s emant I listened to some Who audios. I listened to the Isos Network on bbc sounds which was the first second Doctor audio I’ve heard. I was so surprised by how good the person voicing the second Doctor was, and was surprised when I saw the cast list that it was Frazer Hines (who was also voicing Jamie) which was such a surprise. It was also a little strange as him and Wendy Padbury (the voice of Zoe) also did narration which I’ve not heard in other ones. I’m not sure what I feel about that, cause it does set scenes but took a bit of getting used to.
I also listened to one of the Paternoster Gang audios last night and I felt so hard for Madame Vastra. Her commentary on the human race and how it deals with those that are different, was sadly spot on and feels even more true now. Sadly. I might put on the next one later.
I did manage to game some yesterday. Baldur’s Gate downloaded but a patch came out yesterday so I couldn’t play right away. So in the afternoon I ended up finally going back in Jedi Survivor. I didn’t do much but I did get off Coruscant (the last thing I did was landing on Koboh) so I’m excited to get back.
I did manage to do some on Baldur’s Gate last night and I spent half an hour on character creation making my character, a Drow Bard called Callum (my in game names are often a sign of whatever fixation I have so make of of that what you will). He looks so cool and I’m excited to do more. He even has vicious mockery which I remember Maxx using when he did dnd! I did a bit of the game on the ship, and I ended just after waking Shadowheart.
(I just got an Astarion tee from qwertee, despite not meeting him yet oop)
Today I had a delivery, missing parts from the advent calendar and the dungeons and dragons magazine thing I got from the Black Friday offer. So now I have doubles of the first two issues and the dice. Oop.
I also did some iconning but then the laptop needed yet another update (thats four now!) which ugh! Is anyone good at getting screencaps though? I need to get some for icons but I’m hopeless.
Tomorrow I’m gonna be going out insanely early to pick up a food order and do a food shop which I know is gonna be exhausting and stressful. Ugh. I hope I’ll be able to rest when I get back and work on stuff but ughh. I fully expect I’ll just flop, eat my veggie sushi and watch the dickens stuff on sky arts.
I hope everyone has a nice christmas/yule/new year (and any other celebrations too) I hope everyone has a nice time and gets to rest.
I’m ending this post with Eret pics, because I can and because she looks hot.
These first two he posted on twitter and gave me incoherent thoughts.


This second one gives big step on someone energy

And then they posted them on insta with this because it has such disinterested domme vibes
Fuck I love her gender and her style and I’m excited for whatever he’s planning next year (cause they’ve mentioned something with NASA? Which sounds so exciting)
I really need to do a proper Eret fic, I’ve done two now with him as a side character and started two with them as a main but never finished them. I think after Christmas I’m gonna get back to one of them (and so many other ideas too)
