. . .Quiet Monday?
Jul. 2nd, 2018 11:26 pmYeah, it was -- it was actually reasonably chill at work today. I'd expected a lot more to do, but as a certain import STILL hasn't arrived yet. . . I got the two files I needed to get sorted sorted pretty quickly, and then. . .well. Spent some time catching up on some maintenance, then running some other reports that I've had to slip in whenever I have some free time. It was -- weird, to stay the least. Nice weird, but still strange. Though maybe I simply couldn't fully appreciate it thanks to my period hitting me in the middle of the day. Bleh. . .at least I didn't ruin any clothes. That's the important part.
Afternoon's been pretty chill too (literally, with the air conditioning -- the heat streak continues!). We had to take the long way home thanks to a mess on the highway (turns out a tractor trailer caught on FIRE on the northbound side, and that naturally delayed everyone and everything), but once we got there, everything was pretty typical. I did a YouTube workout (it's not good weather for walking -- still 90-degree heat, and the humidity's going up), had a shower, ate supper, caught up on my iPad game, and then wrote on "Fixing You" for a while. Finally up to Victor and Alice (and Christopher, Victoria, and June) visiting the Land of the Dead! And finding out a surprise party's been set up for them. XD I'm thinking I just might finish this this week! :) I've been making good progress. . .we'll see what happens! Would be nice to have it be "done" again for a little while. (At least until I start chopping it up into separate chapters and do the final round of edits and posting. . .)
After that it was Helloween time -- another adventure with Thicckoskia! Who suffered great joys (killing a fairly easy boss, gathering all sorts of loot, connecting with Siggy and Solaire) and great pains (having to deal with both a poor-but-persistent invader for ages, getting wrecked by another one, and then another unfortunate ledge death that cost her her souls from the invader death). Good stuff -- especially when you pick up on the pattern of "the easier Helloween says an enemy is going to be, the harder it is for him to kill it, and vice-versa" XD It's a very different, speedy run of Dark Souls than he did before, but it's still loads of fun to watch.
After that it was the usual website catch up, then I took a moment and actually got a bit ahead on my VictorLuvsAlice queue! For a moment, it looked like it was going to do that annoying "constant upload errors" thing on my Sims 4 posts, but it only rejected two pictures and then behaved itself. And I was able to reupload them without issue, so whew, that's good. :) Nice to be prepared.
And now it's time to get caught up with my inbox and then hit the sheets. Tomorrow's definitely going to be busier, but there's a chance we'll get out early -- keep your fingers crossed. Either way, I do have my midweek break to look forward to. :) For now, good night!
