I want to be where the people aren't
I had this great plan when the temperatures were hitting +9 and stuff that I was gonna spend some time outside in my backyard getting some of that sweet vitamin d! What has happened ever since that day? Low temperatures! Rain! Snow! Sleet! It was -17 when I woke up this morning!
But I will not give up. One day soon I will go out there and go 'wait, I hate the outdoors. The curs'd sun! Begone!'
Three fun facts about me:
1) I have exploding head syndrome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding_head_syndrome
2) The roads near my house in the country were so bad during winter I got so used to spinning in a circle and sliding into the ditch almost every week no matter how slow I went that I got to the point where I'd sigh and go 'oh not again' and not even be afraid. I never got hurt and most of my time was spent assuring people that I didn't need help out, CAA was on its way. I considered making a paper sign that said that to put in the window!
3) I once won a colouring contest and someone in a bear costume came to my house and gave me a balloon when I was 3
4) BONUS FACT: when filling in the spreadsheet for the details about the pottery sherds I was analyzing, I had to fight whispering 'the laminations of their women' every time I wrote 'lamination' for the paste section. I don't think I won the fight even once
I'm having a lot of fun in Animal Crossing! I got a parka dress today! I've been posting my little avatar Kirke's 'looks' to twitter every two days because he is just the absolute cutest.
I haven't been playing WoW that much lately, BUT I had a great Guild Night with Tainry today! But I actually blanked on what a Gnoll was! They're the HYENA people, and I was like 'the ones with the candles?' but those are Kobolds. I'm forgetting important data the less I play. I need to fix this.
I watched Abominable (mostly sober) and Frozen 2 (totally sauced) the other night and I really liked Abominable. It had a lot of emotional beats that really worked for me and nice visuals. It had some parts I didn't care for, but I felt the rest of it made them easy to accept. Also there's a jerboa! I love jerboas.
I remember less of Frozen 2 (which is good for my mom who wanted me to watch it with her and I'm like OH FINE OKAY) except... a fire lizard? And a horsie? A water horsie? I'll be watching it again, sober. I'm not sure but I think at some point Kristof finds another reindeer talking guy and they... propose? I don't think that's right.
I've been listening to an episode of the Magnus Archives every meal and I'm approaching episode 100. The meta plot is really heating up! I actually don't know where it's going and unusual for me, I haven't looked it up ahead of time. I really like Gertrude's voice actress. I think Jon needs a nice cup of tea and a break. Some episodes are not conductive to enjoying the texture of my jarred (I hate the feel of peel on my nails) mandarin oranges though that I usually have for dessert.
I accidentally started an episode near the end (it had skipped from the episode that just ended before) and because the ipod faded in the sound of the podcast, I thought it was just a cold open and I didn't realize until I was checking the wiki for trivia and I was like 'good grief there was a whole hecking episode here, that wasn't a postscript!'
I mean not a super exciting story, but just letting you know that sometimes I've got to stop filling in the blanks for the world around me.

I'm done with that for now - scanned the vessel sheets and now it's just the report (and the final exam for the other class) to do!
I love jerboas. What marvelous creatures.
Episode 100 had a *really* excellent moment. It was non-standard statements and this guy is like 'yeah, suddenly six hours in the Spiral had passed but... I left because I'd be late for dinner.' the end
