- I got my new glasses. [link] You can see them by following that link.
- I have been back from California for almost two weeks, and in that time we have had exactly one (1) nice day where the sun was out and the sky was blue and I officially hate everything.
- I haven't written anything in three weeks as of today which also sucks immensely. My depression would probably be better if I could write, but because I'm depressed I can't write, so my depression is instead getting worse, because I can't write.
- I have been getting a lot done on the Rivendell cross-stitch project that was supposed to be my brother's Christmas gift. Probably because following a pattern requires very little brainpower, outside of like strategizing where to carry threads and start new ones and so on. So that's good, I guess.
- I have been playing Pokemon Platinum again, because why not. I started a new game back in October and I'm up to the fourth gym right now, though I am going to do some hasty leveling before I see to the gym leader. She has a lvl32 Lucario that could probably kick my team's butt, and also I decided to abandon my Ponyta in favor of getting a Gyrados (because I'm gonna have to use Surf and Waterfall, which Ponyta, a fire type, emphatically cannot use). So I've got the Experience Share on my Magikarp, and hopefully with some finagling I will have a Gyrados in short order. I am hoping to beat the game this time around, but I'm not counting on it. The Pokemon games have gotten much easier in recent years, and Platinum is Gen IV, when you still had to level grind and things were much tougher, even if you're like me and use guides to prepare your team and so on.
- I have also been playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf. I'm trying to get a perfect town before New Horizons comes out for the Switch, and it is infuriating me a LOT. Isabelle says I need more plants. I plant flowers and bushes and crap. Isabelle says I need more Public Works Projects. I build one. Then it's back to needing more plants. And augh. On the bright side, it's been nearly a year since I restarted my main town, so I think there's a little ceremony for that. Looking forward to that, if nothing else.
- I did not read any of the ebooks that I checked out from the library for the trip. I renewed a few of them, and then some holds came in that I've been waiting a while for, so... reading those instead. I am currently in the middle of Seanan McGuire's Middlegame, which is deeply deeply fascinating. I don't think I've quite reached the halfway point, and I'm just very interested to see what happens. And rather glad I don't have a hard copy, because I probably would have skipped to the end by now to find out if there's a happy ending. >__>;;
- I did something to my ankle and it's been aching for a day and a half now. I think I twisted it funny while trying to get the joint to pop, but it's a little unusual that it hasn't stopped hurting. If it's still achy on Monday, I might go to UrgentCare or something, I don't know. We'll see. I probably should take some Advil for it.
- My DnD group finished our campaign this past Saturday. I had a good time for the most part, though by the end of the night I was too exhausted to really enjoy it. There's going to be another game starting up at the end of the month, though with a different DM. Old DM is going to be hosting another game, but for beginner players (apparently the library's had a lot of people express interest in playing DnD). New DM is coming up from a town about an hour away every month to host a game for experienced players. The new game is basically going to be the same people from the old group, with a couple subtractions and additions. I am hoping I can use the paladin character I built last spring for this campaign. We're meeting on the 29th for a Session 0, so we'll see how things shake out.
- I feel like I haven't been doing anything, but I guess I've been doing a fair bit. It just feels like a lot of nothing sometimes, especially when it's punctuated with naps. In spite of the B12 injections and the B12 supplement every day, I am still Exhausted every day. I don't know what to do about it. I get my next B12 shot next week, I think? And I'm supposed to get my blood rechecked in March and I guess meet with my PCP about it. We'll see. Maybe it's just a lack of sunlight. I can't wait for DST to roll around again, I don't even care that I'll be sleep deprived for a month, I want it to be nice out and daylight for longer and ugh.
...
Anyway. Hope you're all doing well, as ever.
