I have the BG3 brainworms making me write stuff again. I will ATTEMPT to retain focus on the important bits.
I did get some more written for my Beauties summary, but I decided against doing any programming jiggery-pokery. Emotional fortitude and all that.
Today, I get all the mail off the dining room table, in preparation for the upcoming holiday. Hooray. Alongside all the other unfucking processes and occupations I regularly do.
Speaking of, I really need to get to the catio.
Yoiks and away.

Today, after I am done with my offerings, I shall try a few things I have remaining unfinished. Maps for another game I'm planning to run, more tooling around on Cheev Three of Stencyl's lessons, and recordings of at least one chapter for the rest of my PLNs.
And at least one paragraph into my summary of Beauties and the Beastly.
Somewhere in there, I should at least try to come up with a rough draft of a "Dear Employee" letter to

These days, they trained new assassins how to find the ones who truly deserved to be eliminated, and how to eliminate them in a way that scared the crap out of other evil people who were on that same path. -- Anon Guest

That will be happening later. For now, I do the minor tasks in waiting to go get all the things we need for the interim.

And to top it all off, I have a cyclone headache this morning. Huzzah.

In the meantime, I shall be doing my stretchies, working on the entry for next week, recording a chapter of Adapting, and maybe doing something for Chapter 353 of A Devil's Tale while I'm at it.
Perhaps even some minor tweaking to my work in Stencyl too.
Tomorrow is the day I don't have scheduled obligations, so that's the day I sally forth

She wanted to see how well her abilities matched to the legendary wizard's. Of course, this was a sparring match, not a full-blown wizard's duel where one was trying to kill the other, so while tiring, it would be safe enough. -- Anon Guest

Chapter Count: Finished Ch 352, about to commence 353. Getting closer and closer to my arbitrary limit where I believe I should wrap things up and finish up the dang STORY.
But I also have some plot to resolve in there as well, so I'm not going to rush too hard. And there's a lot of book 4
