Definitely Back To Normal
Aug. 16th, 2017 11:28 pmAs in, it didn't take long for things to start annoying me. Raiser's Edge was a piece of shit pretty much all day (I was constantly fighting runtime errors while trying to do things), I discovered all of my coworkers had problems that prevented them from enjoying their long weekend (sad, and also awkward since I had a pretty good four days off), some lady nearly backed into me while I was trying to get out of the Stop & Shop parking lot (Mom had to stop for some groceries, and had me drive home to keep practicing), and thanks to me not realizing Mom didn't actually mean the FIRST light after Lowe's, but the SECOND, and a snap decision on my part to let someone go that involved hitting my brakes a bit hard, I don't feel like I demonstrated the best driving skills tonight on our ice cream run.
. . .On the other hand, I DID get everything I meant to do done despite the errors, there were no accidents during any of my driving, and we did go out and get our ice cream. Dad and I got German chocolate soft serve with chocolate sprinkles in waffle cones; Mom a small coffee soft-serve in a plain wafer cone. It was good. :) Bigger than I expected, but tasty. I also got another good chunk written on "Fixing You" (got Dr. Wilson to outline Alice's Issue of the Story, and now they're working on Victor's -- they're not going to come to QUITE the right conclusion, though they're not going to be too far off either), and started putting the Mallow Hallow snippets on AO3. (Although writing up my post for the VictorLuvsAlice queue for Friday made me think that I'm going to add not one, but two stories to that particular little series. . . Just I realized that the current set ends on a pretty dark and depressing note (a bad nightmare of Victor's), and I wanted to do something nice to wrap it up. . .and that's making me think it needs a proper "how we got here" beginning. . . Argh, why am I always giving myself more projects. . .)
I also found a cool video of a Little Sister Alice mod for A:MR that I'm going to use for my Bioshock Week next week, plus a great cosplay of a Little Sister. So yeah, I guess all in all, it hasn't been that bad a day. Certainly pretty productive, despite the universe's attempts to the contrary. And we're technically already halfway through the week too. :p Gonna head to bed now before it gets too late -- night all!
