Very Quiet Tuesday

crossover_chickYeah, not a lot going on at work or home. Let me give you the bullet points version:
-->Work essentially consisted of a couple of reversals, finishing off one parish's roster maintenance, and doing a couple of obituaries. Yeah, super-quiet day! It ended up dragging a little near the end, but honestly, I'll take that over being super-stressed.
-->Came home in good time, did my workout, had supper, and did another page of edits on "Secundus 2." Victor and Cheshire have had a bit of an argument regarding his love of tormenting Victor's experiments -- including a certain grasshopper teapot that Victor's recently made. But Cheshire offered a fairly heartfelt goodbye, for him, so Victor can forgive him. :) Next up, time to set up something for Chapter 3!
-->Watched another episode of "Rags To Enrichment" -- James is just powering through these hour-long episodes! At any rate, Bob is getting settled into Foxbury, and working hard on keeping on top of his classwork -- hell, James had him finish and give one of his presentations before he even attended the class it was for. XD Welp, can't accuse him of forgetting anything important this time! He's also been keeping up with homework, and got promoted again in his career -- he's now a Latte Artiste. Appears that three times is the most you can be promoted in a part-time career, but he can keep earning raises, so that's good. :) Slowly but surely actually getting money! He's even spent it on a couple of things for his new dorm room -- specifically, a new mini-fridge and a microwave. And James got a cheap coffeemaker for the dorm, forgetting that coffee actually gives pretty SHIT energy. (Seriously, there is no point to this beverage except to get your Sim Energized.) Bob also flirted with a Servo (pretty successfully until James accidentally hit the "ask to just be friends" option, then it all went wrong), and did some tutoring for a measly 35 simoleons. This poor boy is going to be alone with so much debt when he graduates. . .but then again, that's why we have a sequel series, "Grads to Riches," after this one. :p
-->Also watched Carl's early-access look at Discover University and took in some of his tips about the game. All the stuff about scholarships and the like makes me want to start my "Valice College AU" save file with Victor, Alice, Victoria, Emily, Lizzie, and Bonejangles as rather younger Sims so they can build up skills and the like. . . Something to consider once I actually HAVE the pack, of course. Maybe I'll pick it up this weekend?
-->Did my Newcrest Adventures update to queue tomorrow -- oh, and have confirmed the queuing problem is not just me! Someone else who had it saw my post while looking for others on the subject and directed me to an ask confirming it's not XKit, so -- yeah, I guess making a support ticket it is. *sigh* Though I want to see how my four-part queue turns out first, as when I did my three-part queue on Sunday, one of the posts actually fired at the right time, sooo. . . I've written down when the posts SHOULD go up -- we'll see tomorrow if they actually hit the correct times!
-->Got my Valice Multiverse queue done as well -- nothing too difficult, happily. And I found some nice posts to stick in the drafts too, yay. :p
And I've already answered my comments in the inbox, so it's time to wrap things up and head to bed. Supposed to be a raw, drizzly day tomorrow, bleh. . .but Thursday and Friday are expected to be better, so that's good. Just bringing soup tomorrow and hoping for another low-pressure day at the office! Night all!
