I got woken up at 2AM because my PHONE was on Daylight Savings and the rest of the house was not.
Huzzah.
There may or may not be a game tonight which makes tomorrow - a long weekend day - even more interesting than expected.
I'm helping MeMum with tech troubles, and any other shenanigans we can manage when half of anything is shut.
I'm working on side projects as the Foundry has lag goblins. Story stream real soon now.
Remaining nonsense thereafter.
I made good time this week because I purposely pulled ahead of Miss Chaos towards the end of the 5K. She continued to plod along at her own pace.
I got eleven weeks until my fiftieth parkrun. That promises to be some fun because I have a firkin soundtrack for that. Yay.
Stay tuned for news about that incidence of Mischief Gremlin Hijinks.
My PLNs for today include retiring relatively early for my streaming nonsense early-early tomorrow morning.
I'll still record

A smidge that I shall squirrel away for emergencies/something cool.
It's also heading towards my birthday, so I really should look up what's in my pockets for All Hallow's Read.
I do have stuff for that.
What I don't have is a decent image to use in lieu of a cover.
I'm going to try another thing for Stencyl during my shenanigans today.

Because the

I shall be taking the train mostly home and either walking or taking an Uber the last bit of the way back home.
Expect tomorrow's offering at a nonstandard time.
At midday tomorrow, we shall be a one-car family.
Now I shall proceed with my offerings and disorganised side-projects as per normal.
I will be making
Read more »Tomorrow, my dear readers, we bid farewell to the Tesla. Not only is it from a problematic source, it's also a problem for our budget.
We can't afford to wait ten years for the lack of petrol to pay off.
So we will be down to my Zippy Little Car and however much the fuel bill is going to be henceforth.
Tomorrow, I will be travelling. Getting the Tesla cleaned and serviced and otherwise ready for resale. Hooray. So my usual offerings

As it turns out, the Foundry is winging it this week and evolving new systems henceforth. Fun times.
I am definitely going to try my ideas on Stencyl today. See how or if it works. I shall certainly try.
Then I go for the next challenge. Whee.
Slow and steady. Learn things. Tweak. Try, try, try again.
Seems to be
Read more »The game broke up early thanks to Player Participation Failure. People had places to be and couldn't participate in the shenanigans in progress.
We'll be oscillating between TaleSpire and Owlbear for a bit, so that's going to be interesting. I'll be keeping both open for that gameplay. I'll have to remember how to share TaleSpire maps again.
Blargh.
We will be experiencing technical difficulties. We just have to adapt.
Today, I do my story stream. Afterwards happens entirely dependent on my ability
Read more »I only just got home from a fun day out with all the rainbow-coded people who could make it to Brisbane for Pride day. It was a very colourful day out. Very fun.
And I am certainly going to pay for it tomorrow.
BUT there will still be stream stuff even if I have to make it through the D&D sesh on cough lollies.
For now, though, I am going to rush through my offerings and hopefully make it through
Read more »In a few minutes, I will get on with cleaning the catio and doing the Starter business. I have just been out collecting my Beloved and a postal order from the wilderness. Not in that order.
I have also begun today's recordings and the triumphant fanfare is because I have passed recording two hundred chapters. One hundred and twenty-something to go. Huzzah.
I am not certain I will have any time to try anything else in Stencyl, but I can plausibly attempt
Read more »I need coffee. More accurately, I need a supply of coffee pods and that requires a trip to Costco so I can get them in bulk.
I've just done my medication thing, and I'm in the process of recording more chapters. I'll work on the daily offerings until 10, when Costco is open at last.
My efforts at getting my Passport refreshed have hit the imp's ass, so to speak. I need a confirmation email to activate my account, and because the

So I shall be devoting some time to doing the form-filling activities that keep my documents alive. Huzzah.
I shall get into the offerings, of course, and then get into the paperwork.
Yay.
Let's get on with getting on with things.
Read more »I have been trying to do the challenge for Stencyl to no avail. I shall screenshot my latest code attempts for the Patreon stuff.
There has to be a way to do this thing. And the other two things in the challenge list. I shall be looking up hints and tips at a later date.
Beloved and I are having some time together tonight, because social stuff happening on Thursday. I might not get on with my usual routine for some significant
Read more »If my calculations are correct, we should encounter payday this week. That same payday is also date night because other social shenanigans happening this Thursday.
I have paperwork to sort out and that will be happening on Wednesday. So my week is pretty much booked out already, and it isn't yet noon on Monday.
The Tale Foundry is changing how things go. Submissions happening on Discord. So my submissions will no longer be publicly available. I will be altering my Patreon posts
Read more »Let's recap.
We were supposed to board the plane at almost seven in the evening, get to Brisbane by eightish, and I would potentially have some energy to drive home and sleep in my own bed. That was the PLN.
However. The plane had a dodgy motor in its tail, the one responsible for driving the air conditioning in the plane. In order to get it operational, they needed a special charger at the airport.
Some other plane nicked it for two
