So today I was able to swing round and get a copy of the biopsy results. (I’d intended to go yesterday, but between the weather being bad and waiting for a delivery I couldn’t go.) There’s something about having it in black and white that makes it somehow more real. Seeing the words that it’s benign and completely removed is such a relief. (It was a histiocytoma)

However it’s also a bit annoying as it also says that the specialist ‘made it clear’ on the phone all the nature of what it was and that it was ok which, no they absolutely did not. But eh. It’s done now and hopefully that’s it.

Yesterday while waiting on the delivery (some stuff for the girls) I did a little more on Echoes Of Wisdom, mostly doing the Eternal Forest (and meeting the deku tree!) and chasing down the null echo of Zelda. I tried to do the fight and it was a slog and I died, so I tink I’m gonna do some sidequests and get more smoothies before trying again.

Sleep Token are also being cryptic and teasing… something. This is my first time being around for this from them and it’s strange. There’s a website, with a mysterious code which someone worked out is linked (along with co-ordinates they found) to something at a place called Shugborough, a place I remember going as a kid. I’ve no idea what it all means, but putting in the code meant I got sorted into House Valerian which… who knows what that means? I like the strange crypticness.

I found I’ve missed book reading. I did consider starting Flight Of Icarus, even bringing the book closer, but instead decided to finally finish the lil booklet that came with j-horror rising, which was pretty interesting though I do think I should have noted down the other films that were mentioned as I went along. I might have to go back through it and do that. (I did recognise a few of the films mentioned in the Horrors Greatest ep) I really do hope arrow do another similar boxset,

Today Tubbo posted a lil video on things for the coming Tubbathon and ahh I’m excited, there’s gonna be more No Dice, plus a version of Taskmaster with streamers (which I’m so excited for cause you know I love Taskmaster) and he has some more surprises coming. I do feel so bad for him though, he did record stuff to do an ‘epic trailer’ only to accidentally format the card when he was about to edit it losing it all.

And speaking of No Dice the signed postcard I won came! It looks so pretty and everyone of the main group signed it, yay!

(Now if only Seapeekay could finally sort the things he’s meant to send out)

Also there’s gonna be a new Christie adaption a week on Sunday, of Towards Zero. It’s one of the ones they turned into a Marple (despite her not being in it) so I’m curious to see how this one is gonna go.

Tonight I wanna try and work on something, cause I’ve been itching to write but every time I try I intend to I either get distracted, tired or the words don’t come which is a pain. No doubt the same will happen here which ugh.

Oh! I watched episode 5 of Stranger Things a few nights too and I’m glad we finally meet the ‘friendly orderly’ (damn why are there so many hot guys this season?) and the Creel house is so creepy, like peak haunted house vibes. I might see the next ep before the weekend is out but I’m not sure when. I also wanna watch Uzumaki finally (again before the weekend is out) and I’m sure there’s something else too.

I’m sure I was gonna say another thing but it’s gone out of my head, oop.

There’s something about having it in black and white that makes it somehow more real.

I can understand that feeling, so am glad you have those results to see.

[shadowhive]

Me too, it’s all been so stressful so I’m glad this seems to be the end of it

[rhoda_rants]

Totally get wanted to see actual, written proof of the diagnosis. Plus, like, you have a right to that information. Good for you getting a copy!

". . . I’ve no idea what it all means, but putting in the code meant I got sorted into House Valerian"

Oooooh, that is so cool! I don't even go here, but I love this! I want to be sent on a cryptic fandom quest!

damn why are there so many hot guys this season?

LOL--I know, it's a real problem. I love Jamie Campbell Bower, and this is one of my favorite roles for him. Oh, btw, when you're caught up, you should totally check out highlights from the press tour. They paired him with Joseph Quinn (Eddie) on ALL the interviews, and their banter is low-key flirty. Sometimes blatantly flirty. It's amazing.

Yeah I knew I’d not fully believe it until I had it so was glad when the doctor said he’d sort a copy before I even asked.

Apparently they’ve been cryptic before so I’m so curious where this is gonna go! There’s even a crest for house valerian which looks pretty cool

It really is👀 I’ve always thought he was pretty hot so was glad to hear he was in it (though it feels like a minefield avoiding spoilers!) seeing him in his outfit is so👀 oh really? That’ll be interesting to see them bounce off each other damn👀I’ll have to look them up!

Also Jamie’s on the cover of the new rock sound and he looks so

They're making Towards Zero a Marple? That will definitely be interesting. I remember the book has a couple of comments like "That's what put old Hercule Poirot into my head", so I might have been less surprised had they used him instead.

[shadowhive]

This new version doesn’t have her in it (at least I’ve not heard her being in it!) but they did adapt it in one of the Miss Marple series (in season 3 of this one), I know it’s on the ITV player if you want to check it out!

[tellshannon815]

Looking at that list, I'm realising there's so many of those I just don't remember at all, including that one, so I might well end up doing that! I definitely remember the first one that changed the identity of the killer, and there's a couple more I think I saw, I wouldn't remember the final series because 2013 is just a whole big blur to me (that was the year Grandad died, long story but he essentially took over as my father figure while my father was MIA) but there's lots I should remember but don't. Think I have some watching to do!

[shadowhive]

Yeah I recently did a watch of the whole series and didn’t remember most of them either. Yeah I saw on tv tropes that so many of them changed things! I hope you enjoy when you do watch

And aww I’m sorry, my grandfather was like that for me as well so I can definitely relate so that *sends hugs*

[kat_lair]

Oh I'm glad you have final certainty on the back tumour and that it was benign.
