Sunday, Mother's Day

Today is the last Mother's Day I celebrate for myself. Rennie's Day, as I have just discovered, is the third Sunday of April. Could have been informed sooner, but... meh.

Beloved is taking over the accepting of Coffee Cups, gimcrack jewelry, and macaroni arts with beaming smile and that weird soft feeling one gets when the smols make a thing just for her.

Motherhood is many things, and one of those things is wearing a macaroni necklace like it's diamonds and feeling it.

Ahem.

Today's a fun day. We will probably be doing some variety of Leyland's Tour because visiting matriarchs and maybe a lunch out. THEN I have to at least nap before D&D game tonight.

I'm gonna sleep through most of Monday and I know it.

But I also have to hurry up and publish so I can potentially nap in the car. Yay.

Saturday, Sleep Shenanigans

I have a D&D game tonight, and Mother's Day Shenanigans tomorrow. So I'm pulling dumb sleep tricks. Including deliberately missing the streams I normally tune in for because Meatspace Social Stuff.

Tomorrow's stream is happening at 5AM and I will be missing Tale Foundry's fic readings. Which is generally where I get the prompt reveal. When I don't cheat and check the vote in advance.

Except that the vote hasn't happened yet.

I'm nervous now.

BUT I also have starters

Friday, Unfuckening PLNs

The house has got away from us again, so I have PLNs to at least unfuck a small area in betwixt my other nonsenses.

On my Schedule(tm):

  • Catio duty
  • Big 'n' bulky stuff dishwash
  • Populating the level I finally finished building
  • Maybe starting on the NEXT gotdang level
  • And perhaps some other shenanigans besides

I have a new enthusiastic fan and that's a cool thing. Another Rennaisance Bean has found me. They have fingers in a lot of pots just like

Thursday, The Blargles

For the second day in a row, I was up late last night. The only difference betwixt last night and the night before was that I was up late having way too much fun. I am very tired today and something I ingested is disagreeing with me.

Hence, blargles.

Argh blargh I want to curl up and blob, today.

Nevertheless, I should at least try to stay conscious for the day so my sleep isn't messed up for tomorrow.

I may be

Wednesday, Date Nite and Tight Schedule

We have a hair appointment later today, Beloved has beauty treatments, we have social engagements, and we have a date tonight.

It's Beloved's turn to buzz around like a fly in a bottle, today.

As for me, I was up until almost midnight packing meals for later consumption. We're never buying three kilos of salmon again. There's a LOT of salmon meals.

Thank the Powers that I love salmon.

We also wound up with a surplus of kale. Never buying three firkin

Tuesday, Shrink Times and Needs

My shrink has the Rona, so we're doing a Vidcall Headshrinking for maximum safety. My Beloved has been cooking, and I have some more cooking to do as well as meal packing.

I also have to nip out and grab myself some more vegemite.

And I'm plotting to help Beloved with the habitat unfuckening.

With firkin borked wrists to get going on.

Yay.

Also I plot to do two chambers and maybe some passages before the next couple of chambers that I'll

Monday, the Longening

I have been awake since the previous night playing D&D. I plan on being awake later this evening for MORE D&D

One of Beloved's friends is running a virtual game and I want to be a player, darnit.

It shall be interesting to see how this VTT is played. It shall also be interesting to see if I can continue playing despite Sunday Shenanigans, Long Monday, and other associated nonsense.

I will find a way. I'm manic enough

Sunday, D&D and Scheduling

I have received news that a friend of Beloved is plotting to have some D&D on Mondays.

I am already awake too long on Mondays.

But I also want to play D&D :P

If I'm going to play, I should figure out what the hell schedule I'm working with because Long Monday is going to ssuuuuuuuck if I go through with it.

But then again. Lure of the game.

It's so... shiny...

The allure is there. Gotta admit.

Saturday, IDK what's going on

This would normally be my Feast Day, but I have moved it to Date Night because not enjoying a lot of things makes Date Night dull.

We may be cooking a lot of stuff. We may be refreshing our stocks of supplies because Lack of Foresight. Turns out not having anywhere to store veggies makes them go off :P

Mea culpa, belike. I will foot the cost of the replacements.

I may also be reconfiguring a map because I forgot about some

Friday, Unfuckening Day PLNs

It's been raining, so all the fair-weather plans are tucked aside. Not that we had many plns to begin with.

What I am plotting is to do some house unfuckening to help my Beloved. All I will say to her is keep both sinks clear and she may get a nice surprise.

Which will be me hand-washing all the meal prep containers she hates putting through the dishwasher. Mua haha.

Also the usual nonsense of the day, and fixing a map because

Thursday, Changes

I have made a decision. It's no fun to be on a diet during Date Night. Therefore, my Feast Day is now Wednesday so we can both have some fun.

Which is going to be "interesting" when it comes to my Sourdough Starter Harvest. I can either move the Feed Day to Wednesday, or just keep on going with working with it on the weekend.

Meh. The starter is small beans.

Being able to have more fun with Beloved is better beans.

Wednesday, Wordpress and Date Night

I actually had an idea and it's going to be slightly interesting in the carrying out. Basically, I have to take public transport again after literal years of not doing that. And then I get a lift back. Whee.

Because instead of a day off, Beloved is off cityside to do some training stuff, so I shall meet her in the city for our nonsense.

I shall need my walking shoes, and a transit pass. The latter of which I shall be

Tuesday, Patreon, and screw this headache

I have pain on the left side of my head. Mostly in the cheekbone, and up on the brow. What I refer to as the upper left quadrant of my head. If you can call an eighth of a head a "quadrant".

I have: Upper/Lower, Left/Right, Forward/Back.

And the weird part is that I now have an achey bit in the lower back part of my head. No connecting nerves.

Sometimes I wish I had not spent $3K to

Long Monday, sore wrists, and getting old

It's official, I am blaming the weather for this. I have not been mean to my arms at all in the last few days, but yet the pain flares up.

It's bullshit and I hate it.

I'm also having throat issues and I may be coming down with the autumn sniffoos. Bleh.

Some ginger ale shandy should see me through it. Bugger if I know what else to do for my wrists. I already have braces and am trying to be nice

Sunday, Cyclone Headache Funtimes

There are no low pressure systems within my range. There are, however, two high pressure systems and the oncoming cold of winter. It still hurts my face like a an absolute barbarian.

I am digging up my sunnies so I can function with life as I know it.

I have already done some Chambering in TaleSpire [back to the wibbly wobbly walls again :P ] and am waiting for any streaming to happen when one of my fave streamers has come down with
