I think I should work on the weekly rant, first. That way I get that underway and I theoretically more time to make my offerings and have free time.
Tomorrow, I start making bread.
Tomorrow, my Beloved should be stopping by for extended together time. I hope.
Time will tell.
Let's see how I go.
I have nothing planned and I want to enjoy it. I shall enjoy as much nothing as I can get.
With that in mind, I should get on with my offerings so I have the rest of the nothing to enjoy.
No word of a lie, it's going to be hard not feeling guilty about all that nothing. But... I also gotta look after myself.
That includes the old mental health.
Read more »I will still be making my daily offerings. That's not stopping. I'm taking time off from my side projects.
Speaking of, I just passed the second Sunday that I forgot to post my Patreon stuff. I'll do that today.
At some point in the near future, Beloved shall join my company and we get some precious snuggle-time together.
I hope to have the wherewithall to stream a story today. And the time, come to think of it. I have no idea when
Read more »I could not make TaleSpire go because New Linux Compatibility Issues(tm). I'm working on solution, but the frustration is flying high.
There's things I'm trying, things I can try, and the potential for time to settle all trouble. In the meantime, I'm working on substitute maps to use in OwlBear... but those take time.
Fortunately, DungeonDraft works.
It sucks that technical issues have interrupted the game, but I'm coping my best.
And that's the best I can do.
I did NOT
Read more »I'm still setting things up in the new Linux setup. The problem is, I can't quite get TaleSpire to work yet. Consulting with my fixer-upperer is difficult because she's incommunicado.
And also my internet is dodgy. Huzzah.
Fun times ahead.
With very good luck, I shall have it all up and running before game time. If not, I'll warn my players that TaleSpire currently doesn't like me.
Given that they've done zero offscreen shopping, the chances are good for another stream of
Read more »I woke up in the wee smallest hours, this morning. Pretty soon after midnight, in fact. Since I couldn't easily get back to sleep, I sat up and wrote something.
Half a chapter of A Devil's Tale and the start of a Doctor Who fanfic, in fact. Part of me wants to write it like it could be an episode. A greater part of me is absolute shit at scriptwriting.
So it's a hybrid. And messy. I have a lot of ideas
Read more »I didn't get as far as my weekly rant, yesterday. At least I got the regular offerings out. So alongside catching up with that, I have a fellow author to mentor, some bloggage to shift, and maybe one of my other side projects if I can summon the energy.
I have a huge case of the dunwannas, today. I don't want push that boulder up the hill today. I don't want to do any work.
I want to curl up somewhere comfy
Read more »I'm doing a tech support run-around for MeMum today, and to add complications, this was one of those days where I've had...
Yep. Came over all tired from shenanigans yesterday [my main compy is officially unfucked now yay] and went to bed super early.
Which means I achieved consciousness in the wee small hours of this morning. On one hand - more hours to do my stretchies. On the other... I'm guaranteed to want an early night tonight.
Read more »My PC is officially unclogged. The extraneous files have been obliterated, the old install and last traces of the old install are no longer part of the map.
...though the old install still turns up on the startup and I don't know why...
Like all desperate bargains, I paid a steep price for the fix - at least half my Firefox tabs and windows.
I can rebuild. I've done that before.
I got a couple of hours before Beloved and I go
Read more »I currently can't run a stream today. My PC is bricked thanks to my own incompetence at doing a thing. I now must wait for Beloved to return and un-brick it because levels of technical difficulty.
I shall finish with the backup reads that are ongoing, and then get on with the important things. Feeding the cats. Creating my offerings. Trying to figure out what the flying flip I'm doing with myself for the remainder of today.
I may or may not
Read more »I am now operating exclusively in Linux. This took a complete new installation and drive wipe to do. I now have to wipe the other drive because nothing works over there.
Very little works over here and I don't know why.
I'm hoping that the wipe on the other drive sets things up properly and de-kinks the bugs.
Bugs like... having to hold down ALT and FN in order to type some proper quote marks and apostrophes.
I solved that last time
Read more »My right leg hated me, today, so I wasn't as fast as I could have been. I made it anyway.
I now have a system running entirely on Linux, but setting up is still an issue that needs resolution.
I´ll be running tomorrow's stream from the old Linux setup until I have this one properly set up for all my shenanigans.
Once I have that all lined up, I can wipe the drive with the original setup on it and then
Read more »Somewhere in that favoured land the sun is shining bright. The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light. And somewhere the left is laughing while children play in muck...
Because that corrupt president's been found...
Tumblr's writhing in glee over this. The Fediverse is having joyful fits. There's hosts of people chorussing the words "Convicted felon Donald Trump."
The schadenfreude is delicious this morning.
...and yes, I did look up the poem Casey at the Bat to
Read more »I will likely be up until past 10PM today. Most of that is because juggling dough and proofing my chia sourdough.
I'll be seeing how well the new scales go tomorrow.
I know from testing that one of them displays a weight up to two grams above the other. But at least they're consistent. I can manage once I figure out where the finessing lies.
It's honestly better than having a different weight every time I put the same thing on the
Read more »I got myself a very crammed day, today. The daily offerings, the weekly rant, a telehealth psych appointment, and at least one side project to work on.
Yay.
The telehealth's due in less than an hour, my Smashwords account is migrating to Draft2Digital, and I do not have enough hours in the day to deal with all the stuff I have queueing up for my conscious hours.
I don't know whether it's depression or old age that's eating my days with sleep.
