crossover_chick | A Distracted Tuesday

Both at work -- another one of those days where I tried to get one project done and out of the way, only for people all over to start asking stuff of me -- and at home -- wandered onto some sites with stuff that interested me (like someone rereading and reviewing the first couple of Pern books -- which, uh, really makes me want to stick with my Harper Hall pair, because main book Pern is fucked up, y'all) and forgetting that I had other stuff I had to do. Hell, I got temporarily confused about what day it was while checking my websites -- no, Vic, not Wednesday. No matter how much you want it to be.

I did, however, get a few things accomplished:

-->I wrote some more on Chapter 15 -- Victor has suffered his final major "whump" moment, and it is a doozy. Poor guy's hit his head so hard he's seeing double. . .but now the Colossal Nell is going after Alice, and that's -- galvanizing him to action. AKA he's about to get a taste of what happens when you're really hurt and really angry in a Wonderland-type world. . .

-->I watched The Sim Supply's anniversary video -- 10 years on his current channel today! He celebrated with a look back at his earliest Sims content -- a bunch of Sims 2 mini-machinimas and music videos, a few house builds (he got really excited over this one pub he designed), and the first video he made for The Sim Supply (a tutorial about multilevel basements in Sims 2). We also got some channel backstory -- it used to be a group channel for James and some other builders back in the Sims 2 days. James ended up with the channel when the group drifted apart. It was a neat look at the past, and I'm very happy for him and his 10 year anniversary. You keep doing you, James. :)

-->I also watched Helloween's latest Metro Exodus set, which was largely all about getting lost wandering the wasteland of post-war Russia, looting everything we could get our hands on, and fighting monsters that apparently escaped from the Fallout series. XD Also meeting an engineer hiding from a bunch of anti-technology cultists who dumped all the exposition on us while agreeing to help us with our currently broken-down train. Hey, we probably ARE the first person he's had a chance to talk to in ages, so. . . And it's always amusing to watch Helloween overcomplicate things (like climb on top of an abandoned train, looking for a way in -- only to realize the door at the front was open XD).

-->Got both my tumblr queues sorted -- bunch of asks in Valice Multiverse, bunch of Sims posts in Victor Luvs Alice. But they're both ready to fire tomorrow, go me.

All right, and now it's time to empty out the inbox and go to bed. Two more days! Hopefully tomorrow I can get a little more caught up on stuff, with less distraction. Keep your fingers crossed. . .night all!
