shadowhiveSo this past weekend has been very *flops uselessly*
Right after I did the round up post we went to go and pick up mums meds. We were only gonna go there and sainsburys but we went into TK Maxx and I’m glad we did! I picked up a few books, a haunted house book called Hellhouse, a nice hardcover of Sherlock Holmes and another one. If you have ever been into TK a you know the books are random and disorganised so I always look through everything in case there’s something relevant to my interests (I’ve found some really good Star Wars books that way) and to my surprise there was a Stranger Things book! And then I pulled it out to see which it was and it was Flight Of Icarus, the Eddie one! So of course I had to nab it. I dunno when I’ll read but I’ll definitely try to soon.
In Sainsburys mum got some clothes she’d wanted in the sale, then I got a cute lil Lego set with hedgehogs and the two Lego magazines I get. But ugh it was tiring.
That meant my focus was a bit off Saturday night, Seapeekay had an event but I only half paid attention and then I ended up just flopping after it.
I did put a Steve funko in my watchlist that night and woke to an offer of 20% off so off course I nabbed it. And the flayed Billy funko arrived too.👀 I also put two Eddie ones into my watchlist Sunday, saying I’d not get one till I’d seen him… cut to today and I’ve ordered one oops.i di really need to find the Henry one I picked up, it’s gone awol (likely cause mum moved it)
(I have a problem I even changed my Netflix icon from Diego to Steve.)
Fortnite also has the Stranger Things stuff back in and I’m puzzled again how they have Steve’s bat and Eddie’s spear but neither Steve or Eddie.
Sunday I ended up watching the last of the ITV Marple series and… it was ok. It was a bit slow and the actual murder didn’t happen until about two thirds in and it did pick up a bit after that. The thing is it’s like a few of the Marple eps, Marple herself isn’t really properly intergrated (she just keeps turning up! Even when the main guy we follow is on his honeymoon in Italy) so it wasn’t a surprise when I saw it’s one of the stories the series adapted that didn’t even have Marple in. I guess that’s why Poirot was so well done, the series adapted only all of the stories he was in without randomly inserting him into others.
I dunno what the Sunday thing will be now though, I guess we’ll see. Maybe I’ll get back to The Umbrella Academy or something else entirely.
I did indeed to watch Spree on Saturday, but cause I didn’t have the focus I switched it to Sunday. It is pretty good! It’s a solid concept and Joe Keery is really good as the main character (and yeah looks good in tone two scenes he’s bloody) and it’s so funny to see the actress that played Jen in Agatha All Along in another role. But damn most of the people Kurt killed on his spree (at least to start with) were really dicks.
I did look on ao3 to see if there was any fics from it and damn, so many are Stranger Things crossovers which isn’t a surprise really and I’ve added some into my marked for later cause it was 3 am.
Today was meant to be the phone appointment so we went out with Naryu and then waited.
And waited.
And waited.
The call was meant to be at 2:30, but there was no sign of anything. Mum eventually decided to chase it up and apparently they cancelled it and tried to call Thursday. Yeah the first day i was out all day since the biopsy. I checked the phone and they called twice in the morning but didn’t leave a clear message, so why didn’t they call again on the Friday? I dunno, but it’s another example of their uselessness.
They’re gonna call again tomorrow at 5 but it seems just to be a chance up and not any real answers but I’m not too surprised.
The plan tonight is to do some gaming and start Stranger Things season 4, though it depends on my focus and energy. My gaming is meant to be Elder Scrolls Online and Dreamlight valley both of which have events ending soon which I need to speedrun to finish which is annoying.
And speaking of gaming it’s so sad that Multiversus is ending soon. It was really fun and had such potentional but they fumbled it.
The hope for this week is:
*Go through the prompt lists d maybe add things
*The next ep of the rig
*Read more ABC Murders
*Find the Henry funko
*organise and add to icons
*hopefully Indiana Jones or Alan Wake
(Again I’m sure I’m missing something obvious)
