Well good news, the worst of the sickness seems to be over. My throat is a bit scratchy still, my voice wavers a bit and I’m coughing but yeah the worst is over. Unfortunately mum is now going through it too. I dunno if I passed it on to her or if it just ok longer to effect her than it did me but it sucks seeing her like that.

Sunday would’ve been dnd but my voice was still shot and I was coughing a lot more so decided it best to skip it. Instead I started and finished a game, hidden cats in London which as you can imagine is… about finding cats in London. It’s essentially one giant picture and you have to look for the cars and when you find them it starts getting coloured in which was helpful. Of course it was also a bit frustrating towards the end causa sneaky cats but I finished it and the bonus levels.

Then I decided to check out a series

fleshdoll recommended, which is called High Potential. It’s on Disney+ and it’s really good! It’s along the lines of Castle or The Mentalist, where a crime unit gets a new person who ends up consulting for them. High Potential’s person is called Morgan and she has a ‘gift’ for retraining knowledge and so notices things others don’t. We watched two eps Sunday, then one yesterday and just finished one tonight and it’s so good! (Also it has Judy Reyes from Scrubs in it which was a surprise) I definitely recommend it if those types of shows are your thing. I already love Morgan and am invested.

But anyway.

It became clear mum wasn’t well yesterday, cause she even was thinking about not doing the library stint. Then the lady she does it with called to suggest going to town after it and mum acted like she’d be good for it. I had my doubts, but that night I wanted to be sure that she shouldn’t push herself to go if she got worse. (Though it was a pain finding something to write with though at least I found some things I’d lost)

Good job I did cause she was worse this morning (not even having a voice and was weak like I was). So that put a stop to that.

To be honest I was relieved, as much as I might have liked a trip out I still wasn't 100% and mums money situation isn’t as good as I thought, so staying in was the better move. We can go some other time (though I am a bit sad I about not going to b and m to check for the stranger things sets they have)

Speaking of those sets they’re so odd. They’re two five packs (here) but there’s no consistence. Like they’re from all over the place. There’s Robin from Season 3, Mike from season 1, Steve from season 2, Eddie from 4. It’s an odd mix. But what’s really galling? There’s no Will. There’s Argylle of all people, but no Will which is odd. I did look up that they're from a set of 11 figures (again an odd number!) but it still feels glaring not to have Will as one of them.

But anyway!

I did watch another Stranger Things last night, which was ep 3. I feel so bad for Eddie, not only is he accused of murder, hiding in that shed place but he’s got the sportsball team after him (that are acting crazy). And he’s not even in the title credits either like ???. But it was a pretty good ep I liked that Nancy and Robin went off together and Robin helped find a lead (I suspect Nancy is gonna try and see this Creel guy in the next ep or two).

Stoner Jonathan is so funny but I felt so bad for them dealing with the fallout of Eleven assaulting that awful girl. (And then she got essentially conscripted by Owens but I feel it’s not gonna be easy getting her powers back) and damn I feel so bad for Max finding out she has the same symptoms as the other Vecna victims which I guess is gonna come to a head soon. (I hope she lives but I honestly have no idea, I only know Eddie dies and I’m already salty about that)

I do wanna know what happens next, so I’ll probably watch another ep tomorrow (I considered tonight but I’m not sure I’m in the mindset)

Plans for this week
*Stranger Things ep 4 (and maybe 5)
*Speedrun the bonus levels for Fortnite
*Finish Selene The Doll Hospital
*High Potential ep 5
*Maybe Ghostbusters Frozen Empire
*Hopefully fic
*Hopefully finish icon sorting (I started today but of course it needed an update)
*Find my Henry funko cause it’s bothering me where he’s gone

I also am definitely not going to the Madina Lake gig, I don’t wanna leave mum when she’s like this and I feel it’d be a lot for me too (plus money as well), I’m just glad I didn’t have a ticket already,
