shadowhiveThis is gonna be one of those posts of two halves.
The bad.
Tuesday was the day to submit the uni anssesment and just.. ugh. First my focus has been blah at the best of times (especially cause of blankness last week but also? The questions were a bit bleh. (One needed to use software, which cut out part of the info inexplicably, another was about something I’m so opposed to on principle I couldn’t see it any other way (deep sea mining). I just ended up setting myself a time and saying fuck it when I reached it (cause I knew asking for an extension really wouldn’t help)
Off course that’s messed up with my mindset an energy, I’ve felt so exhausted. And going out yesterday added to that tiredness. (More on that later
And also it hasn’t helped there’s been loud machinery noises outside. The council is doing ‘something’ to the square outside but they haven’t bothered telling anyone what the plans actually are. It’s been going on for a few weeks now and there’s not much difference but there has been drilling and other loud noises which haven’t helped my head. (Increasing headaches)
All that just triggered my mood to return to being low again which… blah. I had been hoping to distract myself more but… yeah focus has been there.

The good.
Tuesday was a stint at the library so at least that was a break from the noise. I did some reading, one chapter of Heated Rivalry, finally reading the Stranger Things Dungeons And Dragons graphic novel (I loved it shown Dustin joining the guys) and started Hawkins Horrors, which is pretty good so far too.
Yesterday was a trip to pick up mums meds, which thankfully was a nice day. I wasn’t going with wnything in mind (bar looking for magazines) but we got stuff. So here’s what I ended up getting.
TK Maxx: A Classic Science Fiction collection book, with a bunch of short stories in it, a Star Wars doorables (it had Grogu), a comic relief Winnie the Pooh tote bag, a ball with a buildable flower (I think it’s lavender?). The main find though was two hardback Agatha Christie books, with the fancy covers- Curtain and Persil At End House. It was funny cause before I spotted them I had thought it would be nice to see some of her stuff and bam!
Argos: Star Wars Doorables Episode I set (which was cool)
Sainsburys: Magazines - Lego Star Wars, 2 Lego Minecraft (regular and ultimate), the doctor Who chronicles 1984 (which I didn’t expect to see but needed), the new Fantastic 4 comic, a Pokémon annnual, and a lil Lego hamster
Also: Ponyta Funko, Pokémon book
I also saw some cute lil Guinea pigs at pets at home which were so adorable.plus we went in M and S and saw they had Red Velvet hot cross buns so we got them to try. I thought they were nice but expensive, but the filling is kinda.. sus )(I’ll be real it looks like cum, especially when it oozes out)
I had been considering getting Resident Evil Requiem for the switch 2 but I was talking myself out of it (I was gonna get it as a download but the price) and then I saw Amazon had it was £10 off so…oop. Hopefully I can do some of it and not lose focus.
Tomorrow is Pokémon day so I’m hoping something cool is shown off during the Pokémon presents. Again I think it’s odd leaf green/fire red were already announced (I’m resisting getting them cause of resident evil and Pokopia coming) so it makes me curious what it’ll be since it’s a long one.
I had an email today saying the entertainer is doing a make and take Lego Bantha on Saturday so I considered going to the cinema for it… but the same email said that Sunday has it too with some stores doing a smart play demonstration. That’s not go na be in town with the cinema (annoyingly) but one of the places is Birmingham so… I dunno. I’m debating if going then might be better to see it in action for myself (but of course Birmingham is busier plus Sunday so I dunno)
For those that don’t know smart play is the new Lego thing with a special brick that makes sounds when interacting with things. What I’ve seen of it sounds… terrible and the sets for it are expensive (plus some look plain awful) so I don’t think a demonstration will convince me otherwise. But at least seeing it in front of me will prove I’m right to think that. (Or maybe prove they’re not as bad).
But I dunno we’ll see how my mood is and what the weathers like. I might just say fuck it and just sgo Saturday, see a film and then come back and flop.
(I do also wanna do the febuary stuff I love posts which I’ve failed on, I’ve not even looked at others poses either😭)
