#vivithecat — Public Fediverse posts

I continue to exist, and have managed to do the one thing I absolutely have to do on a Monday -- hair washed. Extra important this week, as I need to pass as human tomorrow, ha ha.

For now, just curled up with games. I was trying my hand at Europa Universalis IV, immediately got confused, and brought up Victoria 3 instead. Which I'm still not great at, but at least I kind of know what I'm doing. Kind of. I should probably try a wider range of countries, rather than repeatedly defaulting to the US and UK. *laughs*

Whew, I have probably done entirely too much, but. At least some of the household chores are processed, and I hopefully won't have to think about anything else for the rest of the day.

I finished another pumpkin last night, with the help of easily the most ridiculous thing I have ever purchased -- a foot long upholstery needle, ha ha. But it made shaping the segments a lot easier, and it also meant I got to wave the pumpkin at my youngest and say, 'I wash myself with a pumpkin on a stick'. Not that she got 'The Simpsons' reference, but still. :D

Today is more pumpkin, LotRO, and as said -- hopefully not moving anymore. I still haven't gotten around to taking pain meds for my severe, but not as bad as yesterday headache. I'm so far mainly fending it off with Vaporub.

Nothing fancy on the books today. I finished the pumpkin and got it packed up to ship out on Monday (probably). I've started on one for me now. Got a few lil chores to do, but mainly it's gonna be continuing on my delightful Hobbit-y bs, ha ha.

Work is done for the day, probably. But alas, I cannot get back on my Hobbit-y BS because the servers are now down for 12 hours. Rude? Rude. So now I've got to figure out what I want to play in the interim. I've got 'The Settlers' (1994 gold <3) up, but like... do I want to poke at 'Minecraft'? 'The Sims'? I'll figure something out... gonna be knitting too, of course, but I still need to pair it with something. xD

*blocks a devil's advocate style twat on discord and sighs in relief* I finally added BetterDiscord so I could avoid seeing the 'blocked message' note, because ffs what is that stupid shite.

Um, yes, so. Knitting! Almost ready to add on the third ball. The first side is up to 20 inches, so 2/3 of the way there before I start decreasing. Which will also give me a clearer idea of how far I overshot on yarn required.

The downside towards working towards consistently waking up a bit earlier means that sometimes, I get done with work really early and feel like the entire day is a yawning chasm in front of me in a bad way. What's bad about having more time, brain? Really? We've got games, we've got yarn, what's the deal? Brains, innit. Rude damp sacks of fat.

But eh, still in more or less a good mood. Foggy, exhausted, back pinging, but it can't bring me down too much. I refuse to let it. *nodnods*

*claps hands* Right. Onward, upward, etc.

For #Caturday, I offer pure art.

Lots of little bits. Got through work, found out poor spouse accidentally duplicated a bunch of payments. Most of them were to us, so not too difficult to sort, but still Not fun when you have to fix mistakes.

I finally finished all the Pokémon Scarlet/Violet Pokédexes, and got my Shiny. Now the Switches are off, and whether or not I take a break from Pokémon remains to be seen. But I'm pleased I managed the task.

I ordered some bras, and it turns out they're all like, super thin and nipple party; I'd forgotten that was a current weird trend. As I'm not the scrawny child I was pre-kids (not that I would have wanted to engage in that trend then either!), and my boobs are prone to pointing all sorts of directions.. well. I've got them packed up for return collection tomorrow. I still want to get some new bras, but I'll just have to shop even more carefully. ><

((but also, gold star me getting that immediately packed up and ready for return instead of dithering and whups, a month has gone and return window closed xD))

So yeah, fun. Gonna go eat biscuits and maybe pick up my knitting.

Just sort of mucking through the day. I got work done, and now I'm back to my Pokémon grinding.

I've got the weekly ISG craft and chat in an hour and a half, so that should be nice. I think I'm going to work on rings, if I do actually turn my hand to crafting alongside the chatting. Mainly, just want to keep it going so that it doesn't die before it has a chance to grow.
